00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:35.200
<v Speaker 2>and whatever he's doing, I'm sure it's something important and

10
00:00:35.240 --> 00:00:38.880
<v Speaker 2>he will accomplish it with the style and alan that

11
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:41.880
<v Speaker 2>he normally brings to all of his activities, both professionally

12
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:44.479
<v Speaker 2>and personally. I want to welcome Dan, who will spend

13
00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:47.119
<v Speaker 2>with us before and he's with us tonight. Dan, I'm

14
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:48.600
<v Speaker 2>going to do a great job. Thanks very much for

15
00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:51.320
<v Speaker 2>being there tonight, and thanks to all of you for listening.

16
00:00:52.119 --> 00:00:55.119
<v Speaker 2>We will talk later on tonight, beginning at nine o'clock

17
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.000
<v Speaker 2>about there's a huge problem with the Registery of motor

18
00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:03.280
<v Speaker 2>vehicles here in Massachusetts. We have a real reel I say,

19
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:06.680
<v Speaker 2>real ID deadline going on and it's tough to get

20
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.239
<v Speaker 2>your real ID before the May seventh deadline. We will

21
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:13.519
<v Speaker 2>explain all of that beginning at nine o'clock. That is

22
00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:16.560
<v Speaker 2>not a topic for this hour. We did touch upon

23
00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:19.439
<v Speaker 2>it last night, however, when we talked with the representative

24
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:22.359
<v Speaker 2>of Triple A, and we'll get to that. Also, we're

25
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:25.560
<v Speaker 2>going to talk about this high stakes battle between President

26
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:29.439
<v Speaker 2>Trump and Harvard University. Lots on the line, and now

27
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:32.200
<v Speaker 2>as a third person in the ring, we had the

28
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:34.359
<v Speaker 2>state of Maine if we were thinking of it in

29
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.159
<v Speaker 2>terms of Wrestlemaney. We'll talk about that from ten o'clock,

30
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>probably until midnight, depending upon what you'd like to do.

31
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:42.560
<v Speaker 2>But first off, we are going to go to tonight's

32
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:46.040
<v Speaker 2>on Night Side News Update, and we are going to

33
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:49.840
<v Speaker 2>start off this evening with Lisa Krassner. She's the executive

34
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:53.840
<v Speaker 2>director of the Conquered Museum, and I suspect Lisa's going

35
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:58.319
<v Speaker 2>to be pretty busy up at the Concord Museum between

36
00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:01.560
<v Speaker 2>now and between now and about a week from now.

37
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:02.480
<v Speaker 2>How are you this evening?

38
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:07.200
<v Speaker 3>Thank you so much, Dan for having me doing great.

39
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:10.960
<v Speaker 3>We are firing in all cylinders here and Conquered.

40
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:13.159
<v Speaker 4>It's a busy time, so excited.

41
00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:17.479
<v Speaker 2>Yes, how long have you been the executive director? Of

42
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.759
<v Speaker 2>the Concord Museum. I mean, I hope you haven't been

43
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:22.159
<v Speaker 2>just thrown into this job like the middle of last week.

44
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:23.199
<v Speaker 2>How long you've been up there.

45
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:26.280
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I've been the director of the Conquered Museum for

46
00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 3>two and a half years. I've worked in museums now

47
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:33.400
<v Speaker 3>for twenty six years. So I'm ready for the crowds.

48
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:36.280
<v Speaker 3>And we like to think of this as you know,

49
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:40.039
<v Speaker 3>once in a generation opportunity. Every fifty years, you get

50
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:42.479
<v Speaker 3>to really kind of commemorate and celebrate this moment.

51
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.840
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, most people think of most people think of

52
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:49.280
<v Speaker 2>generations in the context of a couple of decades, but

53
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:51.719
<v Speaker 2>this is truly this might be once at about two

54
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:55.479
<v Speaker 2>and a half generations in reality here so exactly. But

55
00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:59.000
<v Speaker 2>we were just ranked the number one best small town

56
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:04.039
<v Speaker 2>museum by US today, which is perfect timing as a

57
00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:05.840
<v Speaker 2>matter of fact. And you are going to have a

58
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:10.960
<v Speaker 2>free community day, I guess, on the big day itself,

59
00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:16.360
<v Speaker 2>April nineteenth. So let's chat about that a little bit

60
00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:18.439
<v Speaker 2>because I'm sure people are going to want to know

61
00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:20.159
<v Speaker 2>about it. It's going to be a lot of activity

62
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:24.360
<v Speaker 2>up in your area. The nineteenth, we remind people is Saturday.

63
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.479
<v Speaker 2>It's not the day of the Boston Marathon, although that

64
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:31.240
<v Speaker 2>is technically Patriots Day, but it is the night of

65
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:34.879
<v Speaker 2>the eighteenth and the day of the nineteenth, which celebrates

66
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.800
<v Speaker 2>things like Paul Revere's ride in the Battle of Lexington

67
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:40.039
<v Speaker 2>and conquered. So tell us what's going to be going

68
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:41.879
<v Speaker 2>on at the museum.

69
00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:47.319
<v Speaker 3>Sure, we will be celebrating Patriots Day with Freed Mischional

70
00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Day will be open from nine to five. We'll have

71
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:54.080
<v Speaker 3>all of our galleries open where people can see over

72
00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:59.240
<v Speaker 3>two hundred revolutionary war objects firsthand. I witness objects including

73
00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:05.120
<v Speaker 3>the famous uh polar veer lantern that was the signal

74
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:07.960
<v Speaker 3>lantern for the midnight ride. And we also have a

75
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:13.159
<v Speaker 3>new special exhibition open called Whose Revolution that really speaks

76
00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:16.480
<v Speaker 3>to what it was like to live through revolution and

77
00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:22.360
<v Speaker 3>center the story around women and children and the indigenous

78
00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:24.639
<v Speaker 3>community that was here and conquered, as well as freedom

79
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:28.560
<v Speaker 3>and slave black. So I'm telling a much more inclusive story.

80
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:30.319
<v Speaker 3>So Freed mission all day.

81
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:33.879
<v Speaker 2>Well, then, aren't forgotten in all of this? Oh no, no, no,

82
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:37.560
<v Speaker 2>but the man played a kind of a key role

83
00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:40.920
<v Speaker 2>in this. These events in those couple of days.

84
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.199
<v Speaker 3>So are April nineteen seventeen, seventy five galleries all on

85
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:48.639
<v Speaker 3>our second floor, where there's, like I said, a couple

86
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:51.759
<v Speaker 3>of hundred of revolutionary war objects, tells the story of

87
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:54.800
<v Speaker 3>the minute Men in great detail from all the towns

88
00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:59.439
<v Speaker 3>that gathered and conquered and battled through the battle through

89
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:04.319
<v Speaker 3>the battle road. We'll also that day be welcoming the

90
00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:08.800
<v Speaker 3>Bilbrica Colonial minute Man, so we'll have a very family

91
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:14.040
<v Speaker 3>friendly encampment of revolutionary living history encampment all day. So

92
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:17.120
<v Speaker 3>they'll be out there drilling with muskets and cooking over

93
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:20.720
<v Speaker 3>an open fire pit and demonstrating colonial crafts, all to

94
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:25.160
<v Speaker 3>be doing leatherwork and broom making and making metal castings

95
00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.959
<v Speaker 3>of musketballs and things like that. So it'll be a

96
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:29.399
<v Speaker 3>fun days really.

97
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:31.920
<v Speaker 2>That to me is probably one of the most interesting

98
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:35.439
<v Speaker 2>aspects of the day that I've read up on this

99
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:38.920
<v Speaker 2>day of activity. Is that the sort of day where

100
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:43.759
<v Speaker 2>those again they're portrayers, they're.

101
00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:45.600
<v Speaker 3>People, renactors, yeah.

102
00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Identities, Okay, are they accessible to people to you know,

103
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:55.839
<v Speaker 2>like other museums where they can be talked with And

104
00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:58.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure if they stay in there in their

105
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:02.040
<v Speaker 2>eighteenth century mode. They certainly would be in their eighteenth

106
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:04.120
<v Speaker 2>century Garb tell us about that, will people have a

107
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:07.160
<v Speaker 2>chance to interact with them, and will they interact as

108
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:11.240
<v Speaker 2>you know Joe Smith from twenty twenty five, who's or

109
00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:14.759
<v Speaker 2>will they take on roles of individuals from that era.

110
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:20.319
<v Speaker 3>Well, they definitely try to capture the spirit of the era,

111
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:24.600
<v Speaker 3>but they are there to be educators and to share

112
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.920
<v Speaker 3>living history, and they very much want to interact and

113
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:33.720
<v Speaker 3>be in conversation with visitors. So absolutely, I think they

114
00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:37.040
<v Speaker 3>try to be very accessible and open, and the idea

115
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:41.360
<v Speaker 3>is to learn about what life was like in colonial times.

116
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:47.839
<v Speaker 2>So if you go there, either as an individual or

117
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 2>with a couple, or a family or an extended family,

118
00:06:52.079 --> 00:06:57.240
<v Speaker 2>you'll really have some great opportunities to interact with history

119
00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.879
<v Speaker 2>from two hundred and fifty years ago. That sounds to

120
00:06:59.879 --> 00:07:02.360
<v Speaker 2>me like an amazing day.

121
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:07.279
<v Speaker 3>Cool family activities and crafts for the day. Also going

122
00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:09.720
<v Speaker 3>into school vacation week from April twenty first of the

123
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:13.360
<v Speaker 3>twenty seven, so after Saturday, we'll have a wonderful week

124
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:18.199
<v Speaker 3>of school of educational programs for families, and then we're

125
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:22.399
<v Speaker 3>gonna sort of the day will proceed. We'll have a

126
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:27.600
<v Speaker 3>wonderful forum that evening with Doris Karns Goodwin, the you know,

127
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:32.639
<v Speaker 3>really such a significant historian in our culture. And she'll

128
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:35.800
<v Speaker 3>be in conversation with Rosy Rios, the chair of America

129
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:38.800
<v Speaker 3>to fifty. So we'll have a forum that evening that'll

130
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:44.040
<v Speaker 3>be live streams and we'll have a concert afterwards out

131
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:47.920
<v Speaker 3>on our lawn. So very full day, very full day.

132
00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Let's we've talked about it, We've given people a good

133
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:53.360
<v Speaker 2>sense of it. How what if we do this? What

134
00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:56.680
<v Speaker 2>is the best way people can get to your website

135
00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:01.759
<v Speaker 2>in sometime tomorrow or Friday, sit down and plan their

136
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:06.639
<v Speaker 2>interaction with you folks on Friday or Saturday. What's the website?

137
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:12.040
<v Speaker 3>The website is Conquered Museum dot org, so definitely check

138
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:14.240
<v Speaker 3>out our website. We have a visit page. We also

139
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:18.639
<v Speaker 3>have a to fiftieth page as well, full of activities

140
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:21.199
<v Speaker 3>for the day and then also getting out here. We

141
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:24.000
<v Speaker 3>encourage people to take public transportation if they could take

142
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.560
<v Speaker 3>the train, and then they'll also be parking in areas

143
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:32.039
<v Speaker 3>around Conquered and then shuttle buses taking people into town

144
00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:35.600
<v Speaker 3>because the center of town will be pedestrian only in bicycles,

145
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:38.159
<v Speaker 3>so there'll be no cars in the center of town.

146
00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:41.240
<v Speaker 3>So we encourage people to check out our website Conquered

147
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:44.919
<v Speaker 3>Museum dot org, but also the Conquered Town website too

148
00:08:44.919 --> 00:08:47.720
<v Speaker 3>has more information in terms of maps and parking as well.

149
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:50.399
<v Speaker 2>The only thing that I can say is thank goodness

150
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:53.120
<v Speaker 2>that the Minutemen on the night of the battle head

151
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:58.679
<v Speaker 2>horses and not bicycles through a lot of pons, and

152
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:04.360
<v Speaker 2>I hope there's some horses there too. Thanks so much, Lisa.

153
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:03.759
<v Speaker 3>So much.

154
00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:08.159
<v Speaker 2>We look forward to celebration and a wonderful weekend. I

155
00:09:08.200 --> 00:09:10.960
<v Speaker 2>really I'm envious of everyone who's going to have an

156
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:14.320
<v Speaker 2>opportunity to get out there. This is as close as

157
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:17.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to come to it. But just enjoy the

158
00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:19.240
<v Speaker 2>heck out of the weekend because it'll be another fifty

159
00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:24.000
<v Speaker 2>years before you, or perhaps the successor we'll oversee the

160
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:27.679
<v Speaker 2>three hundredth anniversary. Congratulations, Lisa, appreciate it so thank.

161
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:29.320
<v Speaker 3>You so very much. I appreciate it.

162
00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:33.159
<v Speaker 2>All Right, we get back on to talk about an

163
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:37.120
<v Speaker 2>award winning documentary entitled Unspoken, Would You Hide Me? It's

164
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:42.240
<v Speaker 2>the story of seven Jewish siblings who survived the Holocaust

165
00:09:42.679 --> 00:09:47.679
<v Speaker 2>with the help of German strangers. So this is going

166
00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:50.679

187
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:03.720
<v Speaker 2>Would like to welcome Marcie Bracken She is the co

188
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:08.559
<v Speaker 2>founder of Pink Cheer Storytellers Magazine, but she's here to

189
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:12.279
<v Speaker 2>talk about a film called Unbroken, Would You Hide Me? So,

190
00:11:12.519 --> 00:11:16.720
<v Speaker 2>first of all, Marcy, let's create and establish what is

191
00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:20.360
<v Speaker 2>the relationship between the magazine that you co founded, Pink

192
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.960
<v Speaker 2>Chair Storytellers Magazine and this what looks to me like

193
00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:29.080
<v Speaker 2>an incredible film, Unbroken, Would You Hide Me? A Holocaust documentary?

194
00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:31.559
<v Speaker 2>Can you what's the relationship between the two?

195
00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:35.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah? Well, first, thank you so much for having me on.

196
00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:42.399
<v Speaker 5>I appreciate it. Pink Chair Storytellers Magazine is a collection

197
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:47.120
<v Speaker 5>of women's stories, so all told by the women themselves,

198
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:51.360
<v Speaker 5>first person. And back in twenty twenty two, we had

199
00:11:51.399 --> 00:11:56.519
<v Speaker 5>a conversation with Beth Lane, who is the filmmaker, production

200
00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:01.679
<v Speaker 5>and director originator of the film Unbroken, and she was

201
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.039
<v Speaker 5>originally just in production, she was filming, she was doing

202
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:08.440
<v Speaker 5>her research, and we're super excited that we've been able

203
00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:12.440
<v Speaker 5>to come full circle with her and now the film

204
00:12:12.600 --> 00:12:16.600
<v Speaker 5>is ready, it's out, it's being screened across the country

205
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:21.559
<v Speaker 5>at all different film festivals, award winning, and we're excited

206
00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:25.639
<v Speaker 5>that through us and Pink care Storyteller's Magazine were able

207
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:29.200
<v Speaker 5>to bring it here to Massachusetts.

208
00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:34.279
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk about the film. It is entitled Unbroken, Would

209
00:12:34.279 --> 00:12:37.440
<v Speaker 2>You Hide Me? It's a Holocaust documentary. As I understand

210
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:42.559
<v Speaker 2>the story of seven Jewish siblings who somehow survived the

211
00:12:42.639 --> 00:12:46.120
<v Speaker 2>Holocaust and with the help I guess of what we're

212
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:52.639
<v Speaker 2>called at the time, righteous gentiles German strangers, they were

213
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.120
<v Speaker 2>able to escape. They survived the Holocaust. Tell us about

214
00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:59.200
<v Speaker 2>tell us a little bit about the film, and also,

215
00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:02.360
<v Speaker 2>I know, so it's going to be available. I think

216
00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:05.799
<v Speaker 2>I have a if I'm not mistaken, I have some

217
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:07.840
<v Speaker 2>information as to where it's going to be shown. But you,

218
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:09.879
<v Speaker 2>why don't you just tell us about it? First of all?

219
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:16.440
<v Speaker 5>Okay, Yeah, So Beth Lane grew up. Her mother was adopted,

220
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 5>and that was also that was something that was known

221
00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:23.759
<v Speaker 5>through time. As Beth's mother aged, I guess she had

222
00:13:23.799 --> 00:13:27.679
<v Speaker 5>a family member who passed away, and that family member

223
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:32.279
<v Speaker 5>was very open about their history, their past, and their story.

224
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:37.399
<v Speaker 5>And when that family member passed away, her mother decided

225
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:41.559
<v Speaker 5>that she was ready to go back to Germany, where

226
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:45.240
<v Speaker 5>she was born and where she was raised and revisit

227
00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:51.440
<v Speaker 5>her story. So Beth's family took a large family vacation.

228
00:13:51.679 --> 00:13:54.720
<v Speaker 5>They all got together. They all went to Germany and

229
00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:57.720
<v Speaker 5>they went back to the small town and as part

230
00:13:57.759 --> 00:14:02.600
<v Speaker 5>of their tour, they arranged to meet the town historian,

231
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:07.480
<v Speaker 5>and that town was historian actually decided to surprise them

232
00:14:08.120 --> 00:14:13.399
<v Speaker 5>and connected that family with the grandson of the schmidt

233
00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:18.639
<v Speaker 5>couple who had hidden these seven children. So it was

234
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:23.639
<v Speaker 5>this really powerful moment. So the grandson of the Schmidtz

235
00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:28.000
<v Speaker 5>was there and met the family, a lot of tears,

236
00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:33.000
<v Speaker 5>a lot of emotion, and it suddenly brought the world

237
00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:34.480
<v Speaker 5>to a much smaller place.

238
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:37.679
<v Speaker 2>What was the year of the reunion? What was the

239
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:38.600
<v Speaker 2>year of the reunion?

240
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:43.000
<v Speaker 5>The reunion was in I believe twenty and.

241
00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:50.919
<v Speaker 2>Fifteen, Okay, so everyone at that point had I believed

242
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:56.639
<v Speaker 2>had grown old because if they were children, you know

243
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:01.840
<v Speaker 2>in Germany, you know when Hitler was in power, Yeah,

244
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:05.440
<v Speaker 2>probably were well into the seventies or beyond when they

245
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:06.159
<v Speaker 2>went back.

246
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:08.600
<v Speaker 6>Am I correct this absolutely?

247
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:15.440
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely? So forty plus years later, this reunion happens. They

248
00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:22.440
<v Speaker 5>all go back and it's a powerful moment and the children,

249
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:25.639
<v Speaker 5>the seven children, what had happened was is their mother

250
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:29.879
<v Speaker 5>was taken from them and brought to Auschwitz, and the

251
00:15:29.919 --> 00:15:34.519
<v Speaker 5>seven children were told to stay together, which they did

252
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:40.679
<v Speaker 5>this couple, the Schmidts, went into town apparently, put all

253
00:15:40.679 --> 00:15:44.159
<v Speaker 5>seven children in the back of their truck, drove them

254
00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:48.639
<v Speaker 5>out to a suburban town, suburban farm area, and hid

255
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.320
<v Speaker 5>them in the laundry room for two years.

256
00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:57.759
<v Speaker 2>It almost sounds like that, you know, in some ways.

257
00:15:57.799 --> 00:16:00.919
<v Speaker 2>Obviously not the same, but very similar to the experience

258
00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:05.240
<v Speaker 2>that Anne Frank had, you know before, before she was discovered.

259
00:16:05.639 --> 00:16:10.320
<v Speaker 2>I was a television reporter and reported from Auschwitz in

260
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:16.240
<v Speaker 2>nineteen eighty six, so I have a pretty good understanding

261
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:19.639
<v Speaker 2>of what they went through. It looks to me as

262
00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:25.679
<v Speaker 2>if it's one brother and six sisters from the So

263
00:16:26.200 --> 00:16:29.879
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing, and they stayed together. How did they get

264
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:32.759
<v Speaker 2>out of Germany? Or did they waited out until the

265
00:16:32.799 --> 00:16:33.519
<v Speaker 2>war ended?

266
00:16:35.039 --> 00:16:38.759
<v Speaker 5>So they eventually got out of Germany with their father,

267
00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:42.000
<v Speaker 5>who they were still in contact with in some way.

268
00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:48.480
<v Speaker 5>Their father instructed them to claim themselves as orphans, which

269
00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:51.120
<v Speaker 5>was very difficult for them because they had been told

270
00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:56.080
<v Speaker 5>to always stick together. Sure, but when they declared themselves orphans,

271
00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:59.840
<v Speaker 5>they were then brought to the United States, into the

272
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:04.880
<v Speaker 5>Chicago area, and all seven ended up being adopted out

273
00:17:05.240 --> 00:17:09.160
<v Speaker 5>to different families, but they were separated and It wasn't

274
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:12.680
<v Speaker 5>until this film came about that Beth was able to

275
00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:17.440
<v Speaker 5>bring the remaining siblings back together to be reunited.

276
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:21.319
<v Speaker 2>Well, what an amazing story. So they came to the

277
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:27.599
<v Speaker 2>United States and I guess grew up here. Were they

278
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:31.240
<v Speaker 2>able to maintain contact with one another? Or did they

279
00:17:31.319 --> 00:17:33.720
<v Speaker 2>just go They did not say they separate ways?

280
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:36.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, well they went through ways.

281
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:36.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

282
00:17:36.759 --> 00:17:39.240
<v Speaker 2>This is such a beautiful film. It's good. It's going

283
00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:41.960
<v Speaker 2>to be shown in Boston at the Pate or other

284
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:49.799
<v Speaker 2>in Hingham at Patriots Cinema on April twenty ninth, And

285
00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:53.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm just checking my calendar to make sure April twenty

286
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:54.279
<v Speaker 2>ninth is a Tuesday.

287
00:17:54.440 --> 00:17:54.799
<v Speaker 6>Correct?

288
00:17:55.240 --> 00:18:00.319
<v Speaker 2>Is that the only showing here in greater Boston? Now?

289
00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:03.920
<v Speaker 5>Yes, that is the only showing in the Boston area

290
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:09.240
<v Speaker 5>right now. Beth has really granted us the honor of

291
00:18:09.319 --> 00:18:12.720
<v Speaker 5>coming back to the Boston area to work with Pinkhare

292
00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:16.279
<v Speaker 5>Storyteller's Magazine, to come full circle with us and do

293
00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:23.000
<v Speaker 5>this viewing special for us. Well, I personally, let.

294
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Me ask you this, if if there are other theaters

295
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:30.680
<v Speaker 2>that would be interested in showing the film, how could

296
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:35.000
<v Speaker 2>they contact you? Because I'm sure you could. You could

297
00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:39.799
<v Speaker 2>potentially expedite that, Marcy, how could My guest is Marcy Bracken,

298
00:18:39.880 --> 00:18:43.000
<v Speaker 2>the co founder of Pink Cheer Storytellers magazine. Is there

299
00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:45.960
<v Speaker 2>a website that you could direct people to if you

300
00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:48.759

371
00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:39.119
<v Speaker 6>folks don't immediately think of Boston as a hub of

372
00:22:39.640 --> 00:22:42.920
<v Speaker 6>American roots music, of bluegrass an old time, but there's

373
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:45.200
<v Speaker 6>so much of that music here, you know, a big

374
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:48.880

406
00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:30.720
<v Speaker 6>main instrument is the mandolin. For any listeners who don't

407
00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:33.039
<v Speaker 6>know what the mandolin is or are new to roots music.

408
00:24:33.319 --> 00:24:36.279
<v Speaker 6>The mandolin is basically a tiny guitar and it has

409
00:24:36.319 --> 00:24:39.079
<v Speaker 6>the same strings as a violin or a fiddle, and

410
00:24:39.279 --> 00:24:40.359
<v Speaker 6>you play it like a guitar.

411
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:45.680
<v Speaker 2>Is that an instrument that arrived here from Spain?

412
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:47.119
<v Speaker 1>You know?

413
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:51.079
<v Speaker 6>I believe Italy is where they originated in Spain?

414
00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:53.599
<v Speaker 2>You know they're both throwing countries in Europe, contail one

415
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:54.240
<v Speaker 2>from the other.

416
00:24:54.160 --> 00:24:55.960
<v Speaker 6>Match totally, totally, Yeah.

417
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:01.880

419
00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:07.759

420
00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:09.039

00:25:09.079 --> 00:25:11.759
<v Speaker 6>I played guitar, banjo, and fiddle, and I'll be playing

422
00:25:13.599 --> 00:25:15.680
<v Speaker 6>I think all four of those. Yeah, I'll be playing

423
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:18.519
<v Speaker 6>all four of those on Sunday. Wow, that's not at

424
00:25:18.559 --> 00:25:19.799
<v Speaker 6>the same time, of course, I'm not.

425
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:20.119
<v Speaker 3>I'm not.

00:25:20.319 --> 00:25:23.319
<v Speaker 2>I get that. I get that. Yeah, I don'tally get that.

427
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:25.440
<v Speaker 2>I like your sense of humor. It's kind of similar

428
00:25:25.559 --> 00:25:31.319
<v Speaker 2>to mine. So, uh, this is an annual event, thirteenth annual.

429
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:33.640
<v Speaker 2>You've been involved in some of these, I assume of

430
00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:36.799
<v Speaker 2>the thirteenth. This is not your first rodeo right, I

431
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:37.319
<v Speaker 2>have been.

432
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:40.440
<v Speaker 6>I think the first one I did was in twenty eighteen.

433
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:43.839
<v Speaker 6>I was playing with a bluegrass band called Pretty Sarah.

434
00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:47.079
<v Speaker 6>I did it during the pandemic. That was it. That

435
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:51.279
<v Speaker 6>was an interesting year. Live everybody live streaming from home.

436
00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:51.519
<v Speaker 2>You know.

437
00:25:51.559 --> 00:25:54.200
<v Speaker 6>They kept it going. They just they renamed it down

438
00:25:54.200 --> 00:25:54.920
<v Speaker 6>Home at Home.

439
00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:57.519
<v Speaker 2>Yep, Okay, that's good, that's right.

440
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:01.599
<v Speaker 6>And every year.

441
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:06.799
<v Speaker 2>Is it just one night max or is it every

442
00:26:06.920 --> 00:26:07.799
<v Speaker 2>night of the weekend?

443
00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:12.079
<v Speaker 6>So it is Saturday and Sunday night from I believe

444
00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:15.720
<v Speaker 6>like four to eleven pm both nights. You've got music,

445
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:18.519
<v Speaker 6>a new band every hour. And then Monday. Actually, this

446
00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:21.559
<v Speaker 6>is something they started a couple of years ago. They

447
00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:24.519
<v Speaker 6>open up the club. It's not a traditional show like

448
00:26:24.559 --> 00:26:27.119
<v Speaker 6>you're used to seeing at club passing. They move all

449
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:29.279
<v Speaker 6>the tables to the side and they have folk leading

450
00:26:29.359 --> 00:26:32.720
<v Speaker 6>jam sessions. So if you play bluegrass, or if you

451
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:35.279
<v Speaker 6>play old time music, or if you just want to

452
00:26:35.359 --> 00:26:38.359
<v Speaker 6>come out and listen, the club is kind of like

453
00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:41.079
<v Speaker 6>an open jam space on Monday to cap the festival

454
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:42.240
<v Speaker 6>off excellent.

455
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:45.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking at the schedule here. It looks like April nineteenth,

456
00:26:45.160 --> 00:26:48.400
<v Speaker 2>which I believe is Saturday. If my calendar is correct,

457
00:26:48.440 --> 00:26:52.079
<v Speaker 2>and it probably is. The first show starts at one o'clock.

458
00:26:53.440 --> 00:26:57.119
<v Speaker 2>That's great. Yeah, three finger Banjo Workshop.

459
00:26:57.599 --> 00:27:00.519
<v Speaker 6>And yeah, so the first two shows that you see

460
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:02.640
<v Speaker 6>on that calendar there, the one thirty and the one

461
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:07.240
<v Speaker 6>and two thirty slots, those are both workshops. So shows

462
00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:11.079
<v Speaker 6>will start at four. But before that we've got Dunger Workshop,

463
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:14.799
<v Speaker 6>Fiddle doughbro and it's like another banjo workshop.

464
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:18.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the claw hymn of banjo workshop. I think of

465
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:22.359
<v Speaker 2>a clawhammer as a tool. But that's okay, whatever you play.

466
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:25.599
<v Speaker 2>And so both days, the nineteenth and the twentieth, the

467
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:30.799
<v Speaker 2>show's four to ten. The nickets look pretty pretty reasonable here,

468
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:34.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean really reasonable. And then on Monday you got

469
00:27:34.680 --> 00:27:37.680
<v Speaker 2>to show Monday Jams from seven to nine thirty. So

470
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:40.119
<v Speaker 2>it's a whole bunch of I could read all of

471
00:27:40.160 --> 00:27:42.680
<v Speaker 2>these names, and I'm sure you know, you know all

472
00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:46.200
<v Speaker 2>of them are played with all of them, but some

473
00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:49.160
<v Speaker 2>of the groups all she wrote Berkeley twenty first century

474
00:27:49.160 --> 00:27:52.720
<v Speaker 2>String Band, Chris Stry, Dumpster Debbie. I'd like to hear

475
00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:55.920
<v Speaker 2>Dumpster Debbie. That's a great name. Evan Murphy, great band,

476
00:27:56.000 --> 00:28:01.920
<v Speaker 2>Liz List Hound and Handler, Joanna Whack Lucy Nelligan, Maxfield

477
00:28:01.920 --> 00:28:05.200
<v Speaker 2>and Friends. That's gonna be you Makesfield and Friends and Enemies.

478
00:28:05.519 --> 00:28:05.960
<v Speaker 2>That's good.

479
00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:08.759
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you get to decide yourself and you can vote

480
00:28:08.799 --> 00:28:11.160
<v Speaker 6>at the end. Okay, he's a friend who's the enemy?

481
00:28:11.599 --> 00:28:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay? Uh, Mika, Joan and Lily and Chase, Noah Fowler,

482
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:22.200
<v Speaker 2>Cecilia and the Talking Hearts, as well as Trevor Trevan Nelson.

483
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:24.799
<v Speaker 2>Are those all local bands? By the way, I'm sure

484
00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:26.640
<v Speaker 2>you know all of them. Are they all local people?

485
00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:28.960
<v Speaker 2>Are you bringing them in from different places?

486
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:33.400
<v Speaker 6>I believe that just about everybody on here is local

487
00:28:33.720 --> 00:28:36.319
<v Speaker 6>or at least regional. I think Joanna maybe lives in

488
00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:39.880
<v Speaker 6>New York, Noah maybe lives in Pennsylvania or Nashville. But

489
00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:44.000
<v Speaker 6>otherwise everybody, everybody's from around here. Greg List, who's playing

490
00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:47.119
<v Speaker 6>at six pm on Saturday, is a He is the

491
00:28:47.319 --> 00:28:51.559

492
00:28:51.559 --> 00:28:53.799
<v Speaker 6>you watch show The Last of Us as Dan Crooked

493

518
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:08.680
<v Speaker 2>but welcome to Boston. Welcome to Boston and Cambridge. Okay,

519
00:30:08.680 --> 00:30:09.359
<v Speaker 2>thanks Mackill.

520
00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:10.799
<v Speaker 6>I feel very welcome. Thank you.

521
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:14.079
<v Speaker 2>All right, okay, will we get back. We're going to

522
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:17.440
<v Speaker 2>talk about the cicadas. No, that is not a blues band.

523
00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:20.480
<v Speaker 2>They stop by about once every seventeen years and they

524
00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:23.920
<v Speaker 2>make quite a racket. We will explain. The buzz is

525
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:26.839
<v Speaker 2>back coming back here on night Side in just a

526
00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:29.240
<v Speaker 2>minute or two. Stay there, we'll be right back.

527
00:30:32.119 --> 00:30:36.400
<v Speaker 1>You're on night Side with Dan Ray. I'm w Boston's

528
00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:37.079
<v Speaker 1>News Radio.

529
00:30:38.400 --> 00:30:41.559
<v Speaker 2>This one will be fun, everybody. The cicadas are coming

530
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:46.160
<v Speaker 2>back to Massachusetts. Here's what we know, and we're brewed

531
00:30:46.720 --> 00:30:51.160
<v Speaker 2>fourteen will emerge. I have no idea what BREWD fourteen is,

532
00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:53.200
<v Speaker 2>but I'll tell you who will know what it is.

533
00:30:53.240 --> 00:30:58.039
<v Speaker 2>It's Natasha Wright, the technical director and etymologist at Brahmin

534
00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Termite and Test Elimination. Natasha, welcome to Night Side. I

535
00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:05.880
<v Speaker 2>need to know everything about these cicadas. I know a

536
00:31:05.920 --> 00:31:07.680
<v Speaker 2>little bit about them, but.

537
00:31:07.640 --> 00:31:08.799
<v Speaker 4>You will tell you what I know.

538
00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I'm sure we could. It would take two hours.

539
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:16.279
<v Speaker 2>Sounds to me like probably. Yeah. Tell us these little

540
00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:19.359
<v Speaker 2>devils only come around what once every seventeen years or something.

541
00:31:20.319 --> 00:31:23.839
<v Speaker 4>So there's seven species of what we call periodical cicadas.

542
00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:26.960
<v Speaker 4>They have very long life cycles. There's a thirteen year

543
00:31:27.079 --> 00:31:30.279
<v Speaker 4>and seventeen years. It depends on what species. So we

544
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:33.240
<v Speaker 4>are blessed this year, so to have a seventeen year

545
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:36.519
<v Speaker 4>brood coming out. It's called brood fourteen. There are fifteen

546
00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:41.400
<v Speaker 4>total that are recognized, and it reaches into Massachusetts just

547
00:31:41.440 --> 00:31:44.519
<v Speaker 4>a little bit, so if you're in western Cape Cod

548
00:31:44.599 --> 00:31:45.880
<v Speaker 4>you might get to see them this year.

549
00:31:46.640 --> 00:31:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So let's first of all, you know a lot

550
00:31:49.960 --> 00:31:53.880
<v Speaker 2>about this. What do you mean when you say brood fourteen?

551
00:31:54.039 --> 00:31:57.000
<v Speaker 2>That sounds to me like the name of a pope

552
00:31:57.000 --> 00:31:59.599
<v Speaker 2>from the Middle Ages. Could you imagine this pope Brood

553
00:31:59.799 --> 00:32:00.559
<v Speaker 2>the fourteenth?

554
00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:03.000
<v Speaker 4>Yes, absolutely, So how do.

555
00:32:03.480 --> 00:32:06.400
<v Speaker 2>You get brood fourteen? I guess none of us can

556
00:32:06.480 --> 00:32:08.559
<v Speaker 2>become a member of brood fourteen.

557
00:32:08.240 --> 00:32:11.960
<v Speaker 4>Right, not unless we're a periodical cicada, I guess yeah.

558
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:13.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So a.

559
00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:17.480
<v Speaker 4>Brood is like a large grouping. It can extend multiple states,

560
00:32:17.640 --> 00:32:22.200
<v Speaker 4>and they all are They all develop at the same time,

561
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:25.720
<v Speaker 4>and they all emerge at the same time. So I

562
00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:27.599
<v Speaker 4>don't know how they do it. They clearly have some

563
00:32:27.720 --> 00:32:32.480
<v Speaker 4>kind of awesome biological clock. That's seventeen years later pretty

564
00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:35.279
<v Speaker 4>much in the same months on the same day. Most

565
00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:39.039
<v Speaker 4>of them are emerging together. That so they're synchronized emergence.

566
00:32:39.119 --> 00:32:41.880
<v Speaker 4>That is really what makes a brood. And there's fifteen

567
00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:47.039
<v Speaker 4>different broods that emerge at different times and within different territories.

568
00:32:47.039 --> 00:32:48.160
<v Speaker 4>Does that kind of makes sense?

569
00:32:49.119 --> 00:32:57.559
<v Speaker 2>It does. So this this brood was hatched seventeen years ago, correct,

570
00:32:57.680 --> 00:33:04.640
<v Speaker 2>r Okay, and it's been undergrod living off I guess

571
00:33:04.880 --> 00:33:08.319
<v Speaker 2>roots of plants and trees. Yeah, they have.

572
00:33:08.640 --> 00:33:12.119
<v Speaker 4>They have like little beak like mouthparts and they stab

573
00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:14.839
<v Speaker 4>into the roots of plants and they suck the juices

574
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:18.039
<v Speaker 4>out of them. And they exist in this immature stage

575
00:33:18.079 --> 00:33:21.079
<v Speaker 4>for seventeen years, sucking on juices, just waiting for the

576
00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:21.680
<v Speaker 4>right moment.

577
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:29.160
<v Speaker 2>Okay, now did below earth? How far are they below?

578
00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:33.240
<v Speaker 2>Are they like a mile below, a mile? Hundred yards? Oh?

579
00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:36.200
<v Speaker 4>No, a couple couple inches, maybe a couple of feet.

580
00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:38.920
<v Speaker 4>It really depends on I guess what year of that development.

581
00:33:38.960 --> 00:33:42.359
<v Speaker 4>But they're not very deep. Soil is pretty average.

582
00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:45.920
<v Speaker 2>So in theory, you could, in theory try to dig

583
00:33:45.960 --> 00:33:49.039
<v Speaker 2>them up, right, you could? Could?

584
00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:49.640
<v Speaker 1>You could?

585
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:51.559
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if anybody has, but you could.

586
00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:54.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, I give a strange mind. That's why I

587
00:33:54.400 --> 00:33:58.680
<v Speaker 2>would think of something like that. So anyway, so these

588
00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:02.960
<v Speaker 2>little little critters, can I call them critters technically? Is

589
00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:09.480
<v Speaker 2>that an atmology? It's critters, okay, gritters that they have antennae.

590
00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:11.159
<v Speaker 4>By the way, they do, right, they do they do?

591
00:34:11.480 --> 00:34:13.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I've seen them before, And they kind of like

592
00:34:13.519 --> 00:34:14.960
<v Speaker 2>these buggy eyes right.

593
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:18.039
<v Speaker 4>Yes, they're they're kind of chunky, they're black. They have

594
00:34:18.159 --> 00:34:21.000
<v Speaker 4>red demonic looking eyes, but they're not dangerous to humans.

595
00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:23.360
<v Speaker 4>And they kind of have these neat orange accents on

596
00:34:23.400 --> 00:34:24.159
<v Speaker 4>the wings.

597
00:34:24.519 --> 00:34:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and they're not the most they're not as say,

598
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:28.960
<v Speaker 2>beautiful as a butterfly.

599
00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:32.159
<v Speaker 4>No, the front of their face almost looks like a

600
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:33.519
<v Speaker 4>cargrill if you look at it.

601
00:34:34.239 --> 00:34:37.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, maybe a cargrill that had been in an accident.

602
00:34:37.199 --> 00:34:42.880
<v Speaker 2>But anyway, so somehow, some way they emerge. And how

603
00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:46.239
<v Speaker 2>long once they emerge. Now they've been in the making

604
00:34:46.320 --> 00:34:48.639
<v Speaker 2>here for seventeen years. That's a heck of a gestation

605
00:34:48.800 --> 00:34:53.559
<v Speaker 2>period they emerge, and how long they make a lot

606
00:34:53.559 --> 00:34:56.519
<v Speaker 2>of noise. The males make a lot of noise, typical males.

607
00:34:56.559 --> 00:34:59.840
<v Speaker 2>You know, empty barrel makes the greatest noise. Okay, they

608
00:34:59.840 --> 00:35:03.719
<v Speaker 2>may a lot of noise. The ladies cicadas don't make

609
00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:07.320
<v Speaker 2>a lot of noise, and they munch and crunch and

610
00:35:07.639 --> 00:35:10.880
<v Speaker 2>and and they hang around. How long are they above

611
00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:13.159
<v Speaker 2>ground before they pass on?

612
00:35:14.519 --> 00:35:16.840
<v Speaker 4>About a month or a month and a half, So

613
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:19.039
<v Speaker 4>really not that long. You spent most of your time

614
00:35:19.079 --> 00:35:21.400
<v Speaker 4>as a juvenile, come out, make a bunch of racket

615
00:35:21.760 --> 00:35:23.559
<v Speaker 4>mate lay eggs die very quickly.

616
00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:29.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And so when they die, they don't have like

617
00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:33.000
<v Speaker 2>funeral services, so the other little cicadas put them in graves.

618
00:35:33.239 --> 00:35:35.719
<v Speaker 2>They're just dead on the ground. And one of the

619
00:35:35.719 --> 00:35:41.920
<v Speaker 2>things that I understand, it's pretty dangerous for particularly you know, pets,

620
00:35:42.840 --> 00:35:45.800
<v Speaker 2>particularly dogs to go out and think that they're found

621
00:35:45.800 --> 00:35:47.760
<v Speaker 2>a buffet on the ground, you know, four to.

622
00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:54.400
<v Speaker 4>Six years necessarily dangerous. I guess that's maybe just gross, yeah.

623
00:35:54.320 --> 00:35:57.360
<v Speaker 2>Right right, But I'm saying if you my understanding is

624
00:35:57.360 --> 00:35:59.360
<v Speaker 2>that that can cause quite a problem with dog with

625
00:35:59.639 --> 00:36:07.559
<v Speaker 2>canine digestive systems without getting yeah, well expert here, So

626
00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:09.639
<v Speaker 2>I've done I've done a little bit of work and

627
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:11.599
<v Speaker 2>that kind of caught my eye. So I just want

628
00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:13.400
<v Speaker 2>to mention to people that have all.

629
00:36:13.280 --> 00:36:16.679
<v Speaker 4>Of the s articles that you could cook them.

630
00:36:16.840 --> 00:36:19.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, there is some there are some weird people out

631
00:36:19.280 --> 00:36:21.320
<v Speaker 2>there who will cook anything. Trust me on that.

632
00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:29.480
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I'm told that they taste like chicken. Now that

633
00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:32.159
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure. I've tried everything.

634
00:36:32.760 --> 00:36:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Been somewhere when someone you'll be at a restaurant and

635
00:36:35.960 --> 00:36:38.440
<v Speaker 2>they'll have rattle snak and they'll say, oh, why don't

636
00:36:38.480 --> 00:36:40.239
<v Speaker 2>you try it? And you're gonna you and I would,

637
00:36:40.280 --> 00:36:44.119
<v Speaker 2>probably being of above average intelligence, would say I'm not

638
00:36:44.159 --> 00:36:46.519
<v Speaker 2>interested in any rattle sneak. And someone saying it tastes

639
00:36:46.559 --> 00:36:50.320
<v Speaker 2>like chicken. Everything tastes like chicken, They try to because

640
00:36:50.519 --> 00:36:53.559
<v Speaker 2>they want you to try it, you know. Anyway, I'm

641
00:36:53.599 --> 00:36:57.400
<v Speaker 2>joking with it. I'm just just having some fun. So

642
00:36:57.840 --> 00:37:04.519
<v Speaker 2>this group won't be any their successors, their progeny will

643
00:37:04.519 --> 00:37:07.760
<v Speaker 2>not be around for another seventeen years, and they'll come out,

644
00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:11.400
<v Speaker 2>as you said, around the same time, late May early June,

645
00:37:12.039 --> 00:37:12.840
<v Speaker 2>like clockwork.

646
00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:17.039
<v Speaker 4>Like clockwork, usually it's when the soil reaches sixty four

647
00:37:17.079 --> 00:37:20.519
<v Speaker 4>degrees fahrenheit. It's a very particular temperature, which means the

648
00:37:20.519 --> 00:37:24.159
<v Speaker 4>above ground temperatures are somewhere between seventy and eighty degrees

649
00:37:24.199 --> 00:37:27.840
<v Speaker 4>fahrenheit for that soil to reach that temperature, followed by

650
00:37:27.840 --> 00:37:30.000
<v Speaker 4>a nice rain, and that's when they come.

651
00:37:29.880 --> 00:37:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Out every year. There's in different parts of the country

652
00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:42.039
<v Speaker 2>they will material I assume this is not the only

653
00:37:42.119 --> 00:37:45.400
<v Speaker 2>place that you said that they're endemic to a bunch

654
00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:47.639
<v Speaker 2>of areas, right, correct.

655
00:37:48.119 --> 00:37:52.119
<v Speaker 4>Brood fourteen is actually going to be emerging in twelve states.

656
00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:55.000
<v Speaker 4>They're not all going to have heavy emergents, but twelve states,

657
00:37:55.039 --> 00:38:00.960
<v Speaker 4>so each brood can be through many many states these things.

658
00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:04.199
<v Speaker 2>It's amazing you scientists that figured this thing out. But

659
00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:07.760
<v Speaker 2>are there the dudes in other areas of the country?

660
00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:10.880
<v Speaker 2>Number one? And what about other parts of the hemisphere

661
00:38:11.000 --> 00:38:14.719
<v Speaker 2>or the world. Are these endemic only to the United States?

662
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:19.559
<v Speaker 4>I believe Magisicata, which is the big genus of these things,

663
00:38:19.719 --> 00:38:24.159
<v Speaker 4>is mainly North American. There's other groups and other parts

664
00:38:24.159 --> 00:38:25.960
<v Speaker 4>of the world that have different cycles. I think I

665
00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:28.639
<v Speaker 4>read about a four year and an eight year But

666
00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:32.480
<v Speaker 4>for the most part, cicadas have very long developmental cycles.

667
00:38:32.639 --> 00:38:34.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, seventeen years, as it would do it for me.

668
00:38:35.239 --> 00:38:37.199
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to see them any more often than

669
00:38:37.239 --> 00:38:41.920
<v Speaker 2>seventeen years, to be early honest with you. I've seen

670
00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:46.719
<v Speaker 2>videos on these and when you see the videos that documentaries,

671
00:38:46.719 --> 00:38:49.320
<v Speaker 2>they can be pretty frightening. That's all about I know

672
00:38:50.159 --> 00:38:53.920
<v Speaker 2>they're there. They're there. Are they invasive into people's homes

673
00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:55.599
<v Speaker 2>or will they always just stay outside?

674
00:38:57.039 --> 00:38:58.920
<v Speaker 4>I've not known them to be a problem inside. I

675
00:38:58.920 --> 00:39:01.639
<v Speaker 4>suppose that there's a million outside. Is there a possibility

676
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:03.800
<v Speaker 4>if you leave your door open one could get inside?

677
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:04.400
<v Speaker 2>Right?

678
00:39:04.800 --> 00:39:06.719
<v Speaker 4>But otherwise it's not.

679
00:39:06.679 --> 00:39:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Like a horror movie, is what you're telling.

680
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:12.320
<v Speaker 4>I think people imagine it being like a cicade apocalypse

681
00:39:12.440 --> 00:39:14.519
<v Speaker 4>or something, but it's it's not going to be that bad.

682
00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:16.679
<v Speaker 4>It's going to last about a month. You can deal

683
00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:20.480
<v Speaker 4>with a hundred decibel screaming of males trying to lure females.

684
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:25.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think I read. I actually did my homework

685
00:39:25.360 --> 00:39:28.280
<v Speaker 2>on this, which you know because I'm interested in it.

686
00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:31.559
<v Speaker 2>I guess one hundred decibels is like a hair dryer, right,

687
00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:33.239
<v Speaker 2>So we're not talking about you're going to have to

688
00:39:33.239 --> 00:39:36.800
<v Speaker 2>close your windows and put on ear muffs and huddle

689
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:39.320
<v Speaker 2>in the basement. I mean you'll hear them.

690
00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:42.599
<v Speaker 4>I the decibels too. I reader one hundred to one

691
00:39:42.679 --> 00:39:45.280
<v Speaker 4>hundred and twenty decibels. It's about a fire alarm, so

692
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:47.679
<v Speaker 4>it can be a round of fire alarms, so if

693
00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:51.360
<v Speaker 4>you're close to them, obviously the further away, the less intense.

694
00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:55.760
<v Speaker 2>It is, hopefully hopefully well. Look, I appreciate this, Natasha.

695
00:39:56.320 --> 00:39:58.519
<v Speaker 2>That's really great. And if anybody wants to get in

696
00:39:58.559 --> 00:40:00.039
<v Speaker 2>touch with you, how can they get in touch with
