1
00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:05.919
<v Speaker 1>It's nice time with Dan Ray. I'm dully easy Boston video.

2
00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:10.960
<v Speaker 2>Thank you Al Griffin. As we get to the Memorial

3
00:00:11.039 --> 00:00:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Day weekend, you know, it's when you think about it,

4
00:00:14.039 --> 00:00:18.480
<v Speaker 2>we have finally we have gone through January. Well, we've

5
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:23.359
<v Speaker 2>gone through the winter which started sometime in November. Weather

6
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:28.039
<v Speaker 2>is always well, it turns in October and then November

7
00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:30.600
<v Speaker 2>can be a kind of a tough month, and of

8
00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 2>course Christmas gets us through December. January, we got the

9
00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl, and then you get to February and deep

10
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:45.840
<v Speaker 2>in winter March you feel maybe the clocks get turned back,

11
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:49.799
<v Speaker 2>and then it's April, and then by May you think

12
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:54.079
<v Speaker 2>to yourself, okay, we're out of it. Well as you

13
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.359
<v Speaker 2>can tell, maybe this is the last gasp of the

14
00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:59.759
<v Speaker 2>bad weather. But it was cold the last couple of

15
00:00:59.840 --> 00:01:01.600
<v Speaker 2>days here in New England, and of course in other

16
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:05.079
<v Speaker 2>parts of the country they've had even worse problems, horrific

17
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:10.680
<v Speaker 2>tornadoes and damage, and to our thoughts and our hearts

18
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:13.760
<v Speaker 2>go out to all those who have been impacted much

19
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:17.799
<v Speaker 2>worse than we are. But here it is Memorial Day weekend,

20
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.159
<v Speaker 2>it is the eve of well, we're into mondure Open,

21
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:25.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean Memorial Day weekend started theoretically at five o'clock today.

22
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:27.519
<v Speaker 2>For many of you, it might start at new time.

23
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:30.519
<v Speaker 2>So as you head wherever you're headed down the Cape,

24
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:35.000
<v Speaker 2>up north, going up to Maine in New Hampshire, Vermont,

25
00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:38.280
<v Speaker 2>or out to the Berkshires or whatever, we will keep

26
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:40.439
<v Speaker 2>you company. I suspect that many of you was still

27
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:42.879
<v Speaker 2>on the road tonight. I'm sure that the traffic was tough,

28
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:45.959
<v Speaker 2>compounded by the rain. But we have one more hour

29
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:48.200
<v Speaker 2>left in the twentieth hour of the week, and I

30
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:52.519
<v Speaker 2>hope to finish strong. We've had a really, really good week,

31
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:55.599
<v Speaker 2>one of our best weeks I think in some time here.

32
00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:59.920
<v Speaker 2>When we started Monday night, we were talking with Jonathan

33
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:06.319
<v Speaker 2>Gulliver of Mass Transportation Massachusetts Department of Transportation about the

34
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:08.520
<v Speaker 2>big problems that we're going to begin to see at

35
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:12.479
<v Speaker 2>the Newton Western Project Outbeat at one twenty eight and

36
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:16.840
<v Speaker 2>the mass Turnpike. So be advised the beginning on March thirtieth,

37
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:19.759
<v Speaker 2>which is next Friday, a week from tonight, it's going

38
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:22.199
<v Speaker 2>to be a nightmare that next weekend, so stay away.

39
00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:29.120
<v Speaker 2>Plan accordingly, we talked about on Monday with a doctor

40
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:34.360
<v Speaker 2>Jay ram Es Raja about Joe Biden's prostate diagnosis. Sad

41
00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:36.879
<v Speaker 2>that the president, former president, has to deal with that

42
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:40.719
<v Speaker 2>this early in his post career. You would think that

43
00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:42.879
<v Speaker 2>he would have a few months at least, maybe even

44
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:47.240
<v Speaker 2>a few years to enjoy with his family. Dave Wattles

45
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:50.520
<v Speaker 2>talked with us about expanding the bear hunting season in

46
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Massachusetts and then we talked about the arduous task of

47
00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:58.800
<v Speaker 2>renovating a parent's home. Talk with State Representative Richard Wells

48
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:03.719
<v Speaker 2>on Monday night about the Halo Act, and that is

49
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:07.360
<v Speaker 2>an act that I support which would provide a periphery

50
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:13.400
<v Speaker 2>perimeter around first responders so that people would not interfere

51
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:15.719
<v Speaker 2>with them. I talked on Monday night for a couple

52
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:18.719
<v Speaker 2>of hours about the political wins were blowing in favor

53
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:20.879
<v Speaker 2>of Donald Trump, and yes they were. He was coming

54
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:23.800
<v Speaker 2>back from a very successful trip in Asia, and here

55
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:26.639
<v Speaker 2>we are about one hundred hours later, and things maybe

56
00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:29.759
<v Speaker 2>going in the other direction, in large proper because of

57
00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:32.759
<v Speaker 2>his own making. Talk with Christopher Knight, formerly of the

<v Speaker 2>this week. Talked with Will Gilson about what it means

<v Speaker 2>New England First Amendment Coalition who were posed to the

67
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Halo project. We continued for another hour with that, getting

68
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:14.639
<v Speaker 2>reaction from callers. Wednesday night, Talk with Major Kevin Palino

69

71
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:26.319
<v Speaker 2>Becca fresshessa Fracasa. I should say have Comcast giving away

72
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:29.519
<v Speaker 2>money to one hundred small businesses. Be aware of that.

75
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:45.519
<v Speaker 2>predictions were just spot on. We had. We've had a

76
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:48.759
<v Speaker 2>lot of rain up here. Talk with Massachusetts Order to

77

<v Speaker 2>Die into Zauglia about her report on the emergency Celtic

78
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:57.920
<v Speaker 2>crisis and the problems that the healthy administration failed to

79
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 2>recognize early on, talk with Nicole Roberts of Brookline about

80
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:05.839
<v Speaker 2>coyotes in Brookline, and we spent the balance of the

81
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:10.040
<v Speaker 2>night on Wednesday talking about coyotes in our neighborhoods. And

82
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:13.959

87
00:05:32.040 --> 00:05:35.040
<v Speaker 2>another Republican candidate for governor. The Republicans are going to

88
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:38.360
<v Speaker 2>have a pretty good primary, and I think they're going

89
00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:42.519
<v Speaker 2>to have a candidate to challenge the incumbent, assuming that

90
00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:48.079
<v Speaker 2>Amour Healey is the incumbent Democrat. Talked last night with

91
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:53.199
<v Speaker 2>Israeli Consul General Benny Shrony about the murder of the

92
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:57.800
<v Speaker 2>two Israelis down in d C members of the Israeli staff,

93
00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:02.480
<v Speaker 2>young man and a young woman. Just horrific, and spent

94
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:07.959
<v Speaker 2>an hour reacting to that. And tonight talk with Bruce

95
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:13.040
<v Speaker 2>Persily personally, the head of the EMK Institute, talk with

96

<v Speaker 2>with the Mission, and talk with Marcus Dowing about the

99
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:26.199
<v Speaker 2>Grendel opry in Nashville, Tennessee. Talk with Frank Baker and

100
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:29.680
<v Speaker 2>at large Boston City Council candidate. And then last hour,

101
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:32.720
<v Speaker 2>I talked about Donald Trump's ongoing battle with Harvard, which

102
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:34.839
<v Speaker 2>I think is a waste of his political capital. But

103
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:38.199
<v Speaker 2>that's his decision, not mine. So now it is the

104
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:41.959
<v Speaker 2>twentieth hour of the week, I go over that at

105
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.040
<v Speaker 2>the beginning of twenty two hours. Just to tell you

106
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:46.959
<v Speaker 2>the amount of information if you do listen to Nightside

107
00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:49.279
<v Speaker 2>every night, if you listen to it, those are the

108
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:52.600
<v Speaker 2>topics you would hear here on Nightside. I'm very proud

109
00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:55.879
<v Speaker 2>of this program. It is also a program that I

110
00:06:56.279 --> 00:06:58.879
<v Speaker 2>swear to you. I give you my word. I will

111
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:00.879
<v Speaker 2>always tell you what I think think, whether you agree

112
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:03.800
<v Speaker 2>with me or not. I will always be authentic, And

113
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:07.920
<v Speaker 2>if I have any success in my career, it is authenticity.

114
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:13.800
<v Speaker 2>I sometimes am with the majority opinion, sometimes I'm with

115
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:16.680
<v Speaker 2>the minority opinion, but I will tell you what my

116
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:20.879
<v Speaker 2>opinion is. So now twentieth hour, I would love to

117
00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:23.720
<v Speaker 2>give you an opportunity to acknowledge someone in your family

118
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:27.079
<v Speaker 2>who served the country. This is Memorial Day weekend. I

119
00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:30.600
<v Speaker 2>had a dad who served in the military two and

120
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.519
<v Speaker 2>a half years China Burman, India during World War Two.

121
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Not a nice place to be at that time. Learned

122
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:38.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot about World War Two from him at this

123
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.839
<v Speaker 2>they said at the kitchen table. So if you have

124
00:07:40.959 --> 00:07:44.360
<v Speaker 2>someone you'd like to acknowledge this Memorial Day weekend. Again,

125
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:51.879
<v Speaker 2>Memorial Day is to commemorate and remember those who served

126
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:57.399
<v Speaker 2>and who gave everything. So if at the same time,

127
00:07:57.519 --> 00:08:02.360
<v Speaker 2>I think it's also not inappropriate to acknowledge people who

128
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:06.439
<v Speaker 2>have served and came home and built lives and built families.

129
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:10.600
<v Speaker 2>So that's one option. The other option, which Marita mentioned

130
00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:13.120
<v Speaker 2>today was Marita kind of did this on her own

131
00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:17.519
<v Speaker 2>during the Nightside pregame today at four thirty on Facebook

132
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Nightside with Dan Ray on Facebook, which we do every

133
00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:23.279
<v Speaker 2>week night at four thirty, and of course they do

134
00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:28.120
<v Speaker 2>a postgame at midnight. Your first concert, the first concert

135
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:30.279
<v Speaker 2>that you went to that you sort of paid tickets

136
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:32.639
<v Speaker 2>for that you went a big concert. I'm not talking

137
00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:36.039
<v Speaker 2>about like a little local concert. You know, we all

138
00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:39.840
<v Speaker 2>went to some of those and they participated in them.

139
00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:42.840
<v Speaker 2>Grammar school, you were at an elementary school concert. Now,

140
00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:45.759
<v Speaker 2>the first time you went to a concert somewhere Great Woods,

141
00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:50.840
<v Speaker 2>on your college campus, maybe your high school campus. Maybe

142
00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:54.799
<v Speaker 2>Boston Garden, Boston Arena, the first concert. And then also

143
00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:57.279
<v Speaker 2>I want to give I would be interested to see

144
00:08:57.639 --> 00:09:01.600
<v Speaker 2>which of these three topics gets more play. Your biggest regret,

145
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:08.320
<v Speaker 2>you don't, don't make it personal, but your biggest regret

146
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:13.879
<v Speaker 2>maybe a job you didn't take. Maybe a city you

147
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:18.440
<v Speaker 2>chose not to to move to. Uh, maybe a college

148
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:25.799
<v Speaker 2>you didn't apply to. I don't know. Maybe a friend

149
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:30.399
<v Speaker 2>who you ended a relationship with too soon. So those

150
00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:36.919
<v Speaker 2>are the three options. Acknowledge of acknowledge of veteran. The

151
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.799
<v Speaker 2>first concert you ever went to? Was it a Beach

152
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:44.320
<v Speaker 2>Boys concert? My first concert that I can remember as

153
00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:48.960
<v Speaker 2>a real, legitimate, live concert, big time concert. You're gonna

154
00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:52.720
<v Speaker 2>laugh at me, but that's okay. Glenn Campbell at Boston Garden.

155
00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:57.960
<v Speaker 2>I've always loved country music. I think he's kind of

156
00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:01.759
<v Speaker 2>in that genre. Didn't realize time Wichita Linemen and all

157
00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:04.519
<v Speaker 2>of that sort of stuff. It was a good entertainer.

158
00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:06.480
<v Speaker 2>That was my first concert. So I put my first

159
00:10:06.559 --> 00:10:09.200
<v Speaker 2>concert out there. Do I have the biggest regret? I

160
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:12.039
<v Speaker 2>don't have regrets. I really don't. I've been very lucky

161
00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:17.639
<v Speaker 2>in my life. I've lost friends and if I had

162
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.399
<v Speaker 2>a concert, if I had a regret with some friends,

163
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:23.639
<v Speaker 2>it would be I didn't make that final phone call.

164
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:27.360
<v Speaker 2>That's I can think of people who have passed on

165
00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:30.480
<v Speaker 2>and I wish I had had one final breakfast or

166
00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:31.600
<v Speaker 2>one final lunch with them.

167
00:10:32.159 --> 00:10:32.279
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

168
00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:34.360
<v Speaker 2>And then, as I mentioned, my dad was in World

169
00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:37.360
<v Speaker 2>War two two and a half years in China, Bourman, India.

170
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:39.600
<v Speaker 2>Not a good place to be, no doubt about that.

171
00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:42.480
<v Speaker 2>A lot of malaria and a lot of Japanese soldiers,

197
00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:02.120
<v Speaker 2>a week from eight to midnight on WBS. Baffles me. Why,

<v Speaker 3>two brothers that was nearby to go or check on him,

303
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:39.559
<v Speaker 3>but he didn't make it.

304
00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but you know what, that's the timing there was

305
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:48.160
<v Speaker 2>pretty bad. You should not feel a regret there because

306
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:51.599
<v Speaker 2>the timing there kind of worked against you. It's tough

307
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:54.519
<v Speaker 2>to in a situation like that when you're heading into

308

<v Speaker 2>tell us what was your first concert you went to?

331
00:18:56.720 --> 00:18:59.279
<v Speaker 9>None of that. I'd like to say the greatest Americans

332
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:02.839
<v Speaker 9>with vets and my father White E. O'Hara, who just

333
00:19:02.920 --> 00:19:05.440
<v Speaker 9>passed away seven months ago, was in Korea in World

334
00:19:05.480 --> 00:19:09.640
<v Speaker 9>War Two, and we were raised by him and all

335
00:19:09.720 --> 00:19:12.920
<v Speaker 9>his friends and their families, and we hung around does

336
00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:16.960
<v Speaker 9>for our whole life. And they made the childhood and amazing.

337
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:20.680
<v Speaker 9>And it didn't take money. It just took love and friendships.

338
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:23.079
<v Speaker 2>You know, something you to you right on the money.

339
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:26.559
<v Speaker 2>I understand exactly what you mean. And I think in

340
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:29.559
<v Speaker 2>view of what they saw both in World War Two

341
00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:32.640
<v Speaker 2>and in Korea, they came home and they understood the

342
00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:36.480
<v Speaker 2>value of family and the value of children and and

343
00:19:36.680 --> 00:19:39.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, they were Little League coaches and Boy Scout

344
00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:45.000
<v Speaker 2>leaders and they they they were the greatest generation. I

345
00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:48.799
<v Speaker 2>don't think there's any I think Tom Broker had it right.

346
00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:52.160
<v Speaker 9>I do too, And I think you know, if you

347
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:53.880
<v Speaker 9>needed a roof, they were all there to put the

348
00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:56.319
<v Speaker 9>roof on it. The kids needed some food, they were

349
00:19:56.359 --> 00:19:59.559
<v Speaker 9>there for that. And they taught us to be, you know,

350
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:02.640
<v Speaker 9>grateful to be an American, which I think is hard

351
00:20:02.640 --> 00:20:03.799
<v Speaker 9>to find sometimes now.

352
00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:09.079

<v Speaker 2>The only line open is six one seven back after

471
00:25:50.319 --> 00:25:52.240
<v Speaker 2>the news at the bottom of the air. We're a

472
00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:53.640
<v Speaker 2>little bit late coming back on night.

473
00:25:53.640 --> 00:26:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Side Night Side with Dan Ray you Besy Boston's news radio.

474
00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:05.519
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's keep rolling here. We're going to go

475
00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:09.359
<v Speaker 2>to Chris is in Worcester. Chris your next nights. I

476
00:26:09.599 --> 00:26:12.599
<v Speaker 2>appreciate you calling in. Welcome Hi.

477
00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:19.000
<v Speaker 7>It's Wooster West Woosta. It sure is city of New England,

478
00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:19.839
<v Speaker 7>Yes it is.

479
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:24.000
<v Speaker 2>And people don't realize that. They think Portland or Hartford

480
00:26:24.240 --> 00:26:25.559
<v Speaker 2>or something, but it's Worcester.

481
00:26:26.799 --> 00:26:27.039
<v Speaker 6>True.

482
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:27.319
<v Speaker 2>True.

483
00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:31.400
<v Speaker 7>My first concert was Billy Joel in the Old Garden,

484
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:36.839
<v Speaker 7>maybe late seventy eight, maybe seventy nine. I'd love it

485
00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:41.039
<v Speaker 7>if one of your callers would know the year, because

486
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:42.839
<v Speaker 7>it's a shame. What's happening to Billy.

487
00:26:43.240 --> 00:26:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I saw that tonight. It's I didn't. I I

488
00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:49.400
<v Speaker 2>know that he had fallen in a concert, but I

489
00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:53.920
<v Speaker 2>thought he just slipped and fell. But apparently it's it's

490
00:26:53.960 --> 00:26:56.720
<v Speaker 2>a it's a medical issue that is affecting him, and

491
00:26:56.799 --> 00:26:59.880
<v Speaker 2>I guess he's canceled all those conference concerts. I would

492
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:03.079
<v Speaker 2>to a Billy Joel concert at Fenway Park. It was

493
00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:06.680
<v Speaker 2>probably two summers ago. It was the most beautiful night

494
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:09.440
<v Speaker 2>I can remember in my life. It was an absolutely

495
00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:12.720
<v Speaker 2>spectacular night, and he was fabulous.

496
00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:17.079
<v Speaker 7>I think my concert might have been his first appearance in.

497
00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:20.240
<v Speaker 4>Boston, could have been, could have been.

498
00:27:20.960 --> 00:27:27.400
<v Speaker 7>Secondly, I'd like to talk about my grandfather, myke Pepe,

499
00:27:28.279 --> 00:27:32.920
<v Speaker 7>who came from French Canada to Massachusetts when he was

500
00:27:32.920 --> 00:27:37.720
<v Speaker 7>a little boy, and ultimately he joined the US Army

501
00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:42.759
<v Speaker 7>in the teens, so that means he was in World

502
00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:47.000
<v Speaker 7>War One and he loved horses, so he was in

503
00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:52.799
<v Speaker 7>the cavalry and he got sent to eastern France and

504
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:58.519
<v Speaker 7>he fought on his horse, and unfortunately his horse got

505
00:27:58.599 --> 00:28:05.000
<v Speaker 7>hit and my grandfather got injured slightly and the horse

506
00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:10.720
<v Speaker 7>did not survive. And he rehabbed in France, and they

507
00:28:10.799 --> 00:28:19.519
<v Speaker 7>gave the men embroidery to do to keep their minds occupied. Ultimately,

508
00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:24.359
<v Speaker 7>he came back to Massachusetts, stayed in the military, loved it,

509
00:28:24.799 --> 00:28:28.160
<v Speaker 7>and then finally his wife said enough is enough, so

510
00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:32.640
<v Speaker 7>he left Fort Devans and became a dad and a painter,

511
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:39.000
<v Speaker 7>and he still loved horses and still rode them wonderful.

512
00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:44.880
<v Speaker 7>Always kept in touch, you know, with his army folks,

513
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:49.480
<v Speaker 7>but unfortunately he passed early. And the second one is

514
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:55.720
<v Speaker 7>my only female cousin, and she went into the US

515
00:28:55.759 --> 00:29:00.519
<v Speaker 7>Air Force after high school and traveled the world and

516
00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:06.920
<v Speaker 7>got her bachelor's on the Air Force. And at some

517
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:09.960
<v Speaker 7>point maybe you've done it, but at some point I

518
00:29:10.000 --> 00:29:13.480
<v Speaker 7>think it would be great to have some female veterans

519
00:29:14.400 --> 00:29:15.279
<v Speaker 7>on your talk show.

520
00:29:16.359 --> 00:29:19.319
<v Speaker 2>Well somenight, maybe we'll just open that up and it

521
00:29:19.440 --> 00:29:22.000
<v Speaker 2>allow people to call in, because I think it's the

522
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:25.720
<v Speaker 2>more people we have and the more people get an opportunity.

523
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:27.720
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a good suggestion. Maybe we'll do that

524
00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:30.160
<v Speaker 2>some twentieth hour in the next few weeks. I will

525
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:32.440
<v Speaker 2>keep that in the back of my mind. Okay, that's

526
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:33.240
<v Speaker 2>a good question.

527
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:33.960
<v Speaker 4>Terrific.

528
00:29:34.599 --> 00:29:36.839
<v Speaker 7>That's all I've got. So I have a great Memorial Day.

529
00:29:37.400 --> 00:29:39.759
<v Speaker 2>Right back at you. And again, what a wonderful life

530
00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:42.079
<v Speaker 2>your grandfather had. Did you get much time with him?

531
00:29:43.039 --> 00:29:44.319
<v Speaker 7>Not at all?

532
00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:45.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry about that.

533
00:29:46.559 --> 00:29:51.640
<v Speaker 7>No, No, still got more research to do to the

534
00:29:51.759 --> 00:29:56.720
<v Speaker 7>Massachusetts Veteran Active So yeah, that'll be done in the future.

535
00:29:57.039 --> 00:29:59.519
<v Speaker 2>All right, thank you so much. Appreciate the call. Chris,

536

595
00:32:49.359 --> 00:32:54.880

<v Speaker 10>come back.

605
00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:35.359

616
00:34:12.880 --> 00:34:14.119

00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:20.079

<v Speaker 2>All right, let's keep rolling here. We're going to go

<v Speaker 2>next to James in Norfolk, Massachusetts. James, welcome to Night'side.

00:34:28.079 --> 00:34:31.039
<v Speaker 2>How are you, sir? How are you doing I'm doing

622
00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:32.760
<v Speaker 2>just great wrapping up the week.

623
00:34:32.840 --> 00:34:34.639
<v Speaker 11>Here a time, Colin, probably.

624
00:34:34.679 --> 00:34:37.239
<v Speaker 2>This is your third time. No applause for third time,

625
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:38.239
<v Speaker 2>but thank you for going.

626
00:34:39.880 --> 00:34:42.239
<v Speaker 11>But I tried the other number. It was very frustrating

627
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:44.400
<v Speaker 11>because they looked it up online and it was the

628
00:34:44.480 --> 00:34:47.400
<v Speaker 11>wrong number that Polk showed up. It was six one,

629
00:34:47.519 --> 00:34:53.159
<v Speaker 11>seven thirty four and that did not go through.

630
00:34:53.559 --> 00:34:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Said, where did you see that?

631
00:34:55.719 --> 00:34:56.159
<v Speaker 4>It was on?

632
00:34:57.039 --> 00:34:59.320
<v Speaker 11>I was having problems with the computer all day and

633
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:02.760
<v Speaker 11>that's what it pulled up WBZ Night Side.

634
00:35:03.679 --> 00:35:06.159
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Rob, do me a favorite? Can you trouble shoot

635
00:35:06.239 --> 00:35:09.159
<v Speaker 2>that place? Yeah, that's a problem.

636
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:12.280
<v Speaker 11>We'll get not a high tech guide. But I'm having

637
00:35:12.480 --> 00:35:16.880
<v Speaker 11>like this is like my big beef with what's going on? Yeah,

638
00:35:17.159 --> 00:35:20.400
<v Speaker 11>you know, I'm self employed and I always have I'm

639
00:35:20.480 --> 00:35:26.639
<v Speaker 11>having cyber problems with everything and and being self employed.

640
00:35:26.639 --> 00:35:30.559
<v Speaker 11>It's been difficult, you know. And I thought maybe it

641
00:35:30.679 --> 00:35:33.079
<v Speaker 11>was from the weather or whatever, but that was weird.

642
00:35:33.239 --> 00:35:33.360
<v Speaker 4>Right.

643
00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:37.599
<v Speaker 2>We had some problems today too, by the way, but

644
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:40.800
<v Speaker 2>we'll leave that. We'll let that go for now. Tell

645
00:35:40.880 --> 00:35:44.440
<v Speaker 2>us talk to us and tell us about your whichever

646
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:46.119
<v Speaker 2>one of these topics you want to address.

647
00:35:46.519 --> 00:35:51.840
<v Speaker 11>Okay, So well, first, well I would say I had.

648
00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:53.800
<v Speaker 11>You know, I listened to the earlier show when people

649
00:35:53.840 --> 00:35:56.840
<v Speaker 11>were complaining about the Harvard thing. I don't really I

650
00:35:56.920 --> 00:35:58.679
<v Speaker 11>didn't know much about it, but I was a little

651
00:35:58.719 --> 00:36:02.519
<v Speaker 11>bit horrified but finding out about the Columbia stuff when

652
00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:07.239
<v Speaker 11>I just happened to see it on the paper. And

653
00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:10.440
<v Speaker 11>I went to college, but I learned a lot more

654
00:36:10.880 --> 00:36:15.679
<v Speaker 11>in vocational school than I did at a community college,

655
00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:18.920
<v Speaker 11>and so I'm wondering, what are they teaching there? And

656
00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:22.119
<v Speaker 11>I found that a lot of people that had worked

657
00:36:22.159 --> 00:36:26.719
<v Speaker 11>for me had went to college but didn't have jobs.

658
00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:30.039
<v Speaker 11>So I thought the voc I think the college thing

659
00:36:30.199 --> 00:36:33.159
<v Speaker 11>was like overrated. Now I know you probably need it

660
00:36:33.280 --> 00:36:34.920
<v Speaker 11>for some things from medical.

661
00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:39.039
<v Speaker 2>No, I'm agreeing with that. I think that vote tech schools.

662
00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:41.679
<v Speaker 2>You know, people come out of Vokee tech schools and

663
00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:44.800
<v Speaker 2>they're eighteen nineteen years old and they're starting on jobs

664
00:36:44.840 --> 00:36:47.239
<v Speaker 2>so they'll carry them for the rest of their lives

665
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:50.159
<v Speaker 2>and they'll never be unemployed. But I got to get

666
00:36:50.199 --> 00:36:52.199
<v Speaker 2>you back because I got other people lined up.

667
00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:57.400
<v Speaker 8>I've seen things like Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller who

668
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:01.920
<v Speaker 8>and I think those were at the the Western Memorial Auditorium.

669
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:05.719
<v Speaker 2>Oh sure, that's a great A great venue, great venue, Jeff. Yeah,

670
00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:06.480
<v Speaker 2>that's a good one.

671
00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:07.280
<v Speaker 8>Yeah.

672
00:37:07.519 --> 00:37:07.840
<v Speaker 4>So the.

673
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:14.480
<v Speaker 8>As far as well, of course, that's the older music. Yeah, yeah,

674
00:37:16.360 --> 00:37:18.639
<v Speaker 8>you know I saw those when I was a kid,

675
00:37:18.880 --> 00:37:24.039
<v Speaker 8>I mean like five six years old. My first actual

00:37:34.480 --> 00:37:35.199
<v Speaker 8>was Chicago.

679
00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:38.119
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah. They were big at the time, weren't they were?

680
00:37:38.199 --> 00:37:41.480
<v Speaker 2>They were. They were the big sound, the big big

681
00:37:41.719 --> 00:37:43.559
