1
00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:04.160
<v Speaker 1>It's nights Side with Dan Ray. I'm doell you easy

2
00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Boston's news Radio.

3
00:00:06.599 --> 00:00:09.839
<v Speaker 2>Thank you very much, Madison Rogers, I am always cool.

4
00:00:09.919 --> 00:00:11.439
<v Speaker 2>The Red Sox, by the way, for those of you

5
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:14.480
<v Speaker 2>who are keeping track, are now forty and forty a

6
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:18.160
<v Speaker 2>five hundred baseball team. They play game number eighty one,

7
00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:22.480
<v Speaker 2>which marks the halfway point of the twenty twenty five

8
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:27.280
<v Speaker 2>baseball season. Yikes, man, weirdest time go. My name's Dan Ray.

9
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:29.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm the host of Nightside. We're gonna take you on

10
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:31.800
<v Speaker 2>a quick four hour ride all the way just short

11
00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:35.920
<v Speaker 2>of midnight tonight. We have some interesting topics also some

12
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:38.840
<v Speaker 2>interesting guests coming up during this hour. We'll have four

13
00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:42.119
<v Speaker 2>guests on different topics. A couple of topics I'll give

14
00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:44.840
<v Speaker 2>you a heads up are heat related, which is understandable

15
00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:49.520
<v Speaker 2>in view of what happened today here, well anywhere here

16
00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:52.399
<v Speaker 2>east of the Mississippi or east of the Rockies. It's hot,

17
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 2>absolutely hot. So we will talk about that coming up

18
00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:01.719
<v Speaker 2>at nine o'clock tonight. There's a very interesting development in

19
00:01:01.799 --> 00:01:07.079
<v Speaker 2>a huge contract that the Massachusetts Department of Transportation Board

20
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:10.680
<v Speaker 2>of Directors has awarded to a company from Ireland. The

21
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:14.879
<v Speaker 2>redevelopment of eighteen highway service plazas on and around the

22
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Massachusetts Turnpike, much to the chagrin of a local company,

23
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:23.799
<v Speaker 2>a great local company, Global Partners, and Global Partners President

24
00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:27.719
<v Speaker 2>and CEO Eric Slifko will join us to talk about

25
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:30.840
<v Speaker 2>a very strong letter that his company that he has

26
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:33.239
<v Speaker 2>sent to Governor Morehley. And then of course we're going

27
00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:36.519
<v Speaker 2>to talk about the latest on what's going on in Iran.

28
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:39.879
<v Speaker 2>First there was a ceasefire, then there wasn't a ceasefire.

29
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:42.239
<v Speaker 2>Now it looks like they may be back to a ceasefire.

30
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:46.599
<v Speaker 2>Stock market did great today. Oil prices plunged, now that's

31
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.519
<v Speaker 2>not bad. And the Celtics are having a garage sale.

32
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:53.040
<v Speaker 2>It looks like or at least a bit of a salary.

33
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:55.840
<v Speaker 2>We'll get to all of that, I promise again. I'm

34
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Dan Ray. Rob Brooks is back in the control room.

35
00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:03.439
<v Speaker 2>Our first guest tonight, Dan Zinibart. He's an associate scientist

36
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:07.920
<v Speaker 2>in applied ocean physics and engineering, and he's a Penguin

37
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 2>researcher down at the Woods Hall Oceanographic Institution. He's going

38
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:15.960
<v Speaker 2>to talk about a study. He was not directly involved

39
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:17.759
<v Speaker 2>in this study, but he's going to talk about a

40
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:23.560
<v Speaker 2>study that shows emperor penguins, not the Pittsburgh penguins. Emperor

41
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:29.000
<v Speaker 2>penguins are showing a dramatic decline in one region in Antarctica.

42
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:31.199
<v Speaker 2>I didn't even realize they had more than one region

43
00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:33.520
<v Speaker 2>down there, Dan Zinibart, how.

44
00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:33.719
<v Speaker 1>Are you.

45
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:37.439
<v Speaker 3>Really good? Thanks for having me one.

46
00:02:37.639 --> 00:02:43.159
<v Speaker 2>You are more than welcome. So what's the deal. Emperor penguins,

47
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:45.919
<v Speaker 2>I assume are probably at the top of the penguin

48
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:50.000
<v Speaker 2>food chain, hence named emperor or do they have a

49
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:55.000
<v Speaker 2>certain strut in style that has earned them that designation?

50
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:03.680
<v Speaker 3>Hm, let's clean.

51
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:05.520
<v Speaker 2>We're going to try to clean up that line here.

52
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:07.960
<v Speaker 2>It sounded like you were at the Antarctica as opposed

53
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:11.919
<v Speaker 2>to woods Hole. Are you back No, let's well, a

54
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:14.400
<v Speaker 2>little bit of a soft start tonight. Let's see if

55
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.439
<v Speaker 2>if my guest is back. All right, give it a

56
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:19.759
<v Speaker 2>second time. Is always a charm. By the way, Dan

57
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.159
<v Speaker 2>said of broad I don't know what you did there,

58
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:25.879
<v Speaker 2>but I thought you moved to the Antarctica for a second.

59
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:29.159
<v Speaker 3>No, No, I'm not that far away.

60
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So I've asked you this complic you get a

61
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:33.840
<v Speaker 2>question about the name, I can hear you just perfectly

62
00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:36.680
<v Speaker 2>don't even move wherever you are, Okay, even if there's

63
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:39.120
<v Speaker 2>a flock of Emperor penguins coming in the door, just

64
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:41.360
<v Speaker 2>let them come in. How do they how do we

65
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:44.439
<v Speaker 2>get the name emperor penguins? I'm kind of curious.

66
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:48.439
<v Speaker 3>It's the tallest of all penguins and the heaviest of

67
00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:51.759
<v Speaker 3>all penguins. That's why it's right all the oh, kind.

68
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Of like a basketball player. Okay, we think of the

69
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.960
<v Speaker 2>Penguins Pittsburgh, we think about hockey. Not now, I'll always

70
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.719
<v Speaker 2>think about basketball when I think about Emperor p So

71
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.800
<v Speaker 2>what's going on? They get a dramatic decline in one

72
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:07.719
<v Speaker 2>region of Antarctica. Is is this something obviously we should

73
00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:09.599
<v Speaker 2>be worried about that. The question is how are you

74
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:10.800
<v Speaker 2>should we be about this?

75
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:15.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean, you can be worried, for sure, we should

76
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:19.920
<v Speaker 3>be worried about the indications we see so about five

77
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 3>years back that all the big studies showing that the

78
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:26.639
<v Speaker 3>emperor penguin population are slightly going to be declining. And

79
00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:30.000
<v Speaker 3>this is because the species is so dependent on the

80
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:33.720
<v Speaker 3>sea ice and how long, how stable the sea ice is,

81
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:37.399
<v Speaker 3>because they breed during the winter on the sea ice.

82
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:41.199
<v Speaker 3>So you can imagine if it warms up like we're

83
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.639
<v Speaker 3>having heat waves here, actually heatwaves in an Arctica as well.

84
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.519
<v Speaker 3>And if things warm up too fast, the sea ice

85
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:51.800
<v Speaker 3>which they breed on, where basically what they are standing

86
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 3>on all day, breaks away, then you lose entire generations

87
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:59.399
<v Speaker 3>of newborn Emperor penguins. And that's of course we'll have

88
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:01.279
<v Speaker 3>a climb down the growth.

89
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:07.639
<v Speaker 2>So the baby penguins aren't yet able to swim or

90
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:09.639
<v Speaker 2>navigate in water. I assume.

91
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:13.920
<v Speaker 3>Correct if they have to lose you know, the plumb

92
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:16.480
<v Speaker 3>feathers and get their adult sabus and offense, which I

93
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:19.600
<v Speaker 3>want to prove. And if this yes breaks up before

94
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:23.720
<v Speaker 3>that happens, they basically trou Oh this.

95
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.279
<v Speaker 2>Is this is a bad news. Now. This is one

96
00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:33.319
<v Speaker 2>region of Antarctica. I caught that reference again. We asked

97
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:36.800
<v Speaker 2>questions on this show, Dan which we don't script questions.

98
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:40.480
<v Speaker 2>How many regions are there in Antarctica. Is this like

99
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:44.560
<v Speaker 2>one area where we're having a problem, or is this

100
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:47.560
<v Speaker 2>a huge region that we're having a problem.

101
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:52.720
<v Speaker 3>It's about a quarter and one part of this region

102
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:57.319
<v Speaker 3>is the fastest warming region. So the region what you

103
00:05:57.319 --> 00:06:02.279
<v Speaker 3>would expect those impacts to be first, and what we

104
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:06.800
<v Speaker 3>don't know yet is if this is a trend or

105
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:09.639
<v Speaker 3>if this is a fluctuation. One thing that really needs

106
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:12.759
<v Speaker 3>to be understood is we are observing now much better

107
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:16.800
<v Speaker 3>than we have been observing twenty years ago, so our data,

108
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 3>the data we're getting now is way more detailed. So

109
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:25.040
<v Speaker 3>we see such fluctuations, we all expect it to be

110
00:06:25.120 --> 00:06:28.319
<v Speaker 3>a trend, not just a fluctuation, but we will be

111
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:31.600
<v Speaker 3>keeping having it to keep looking longer to make sure

112
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:35.439
<v Speaker 3>of that. The true problem is while this is one

113
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:37.959
<v Speaker 3>species and we don't want to use any of the species,

114
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:41.839
<v Speaker 3>especially not such a iconic species, this can also hint

115
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:46.839
<v Speaker 3>to the health of the entirety of the ecosystem because

116
00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:49.120
<v Speaker 3>the emper penguin is at the top of a food web.

117
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:51.720
<v Speaker 3>If a predator at the top of the food that

118
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:54.439
<v Speaker 3>doesn't do well, there can be many reasons for that,

119
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.600
<v Speaker 3>and one of the reasons except the sea ice, can

120
00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:01.399
<v Speaker 3>be that its food supply is strengthing okay, and so

121
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.120
<v Speaker 3>it gives us an indication of the ecosystem of the

122
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:08.279
<v Speaker 3>Southern Ocean. So the emperor penguins stand is a bioindicator,

123
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:12.319
<v Speaker 3>and that bioindicator is doing not well. The entire ecosystem

124
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.600
<v Speaker 3>is not doing well, and if the entire ecosystem in

125
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:18.879
<v Speaker 3>the seven Ocean is not doing well, it really reduces

126
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:22.120
<v Speaker 3>the so called ecosystem services. We have to keep in

127
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:24.319
<v Speaker 3>mind that the Southern Ocean does a lot for us.

128
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:26.680
<v Speaker 3>That solves a lot of heat, that it solves a

129
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:29.199
<v Speaker 3>lot of CO two out of all the oceans in

130
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:32.120
<v Speaker 3>the world because it's so cold, and that actually helps

131
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:36.160
<v Speaker 3>us helps the world not too warm too fast. So

132
00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:38.600
<v Speaker 3>while we are talking about one species and the decline

133
00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:42.079
<v Speaker 3>of the species, the impact which this tells us is

134
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:44.920
<v Speaker 3>that in the future we might have to deal with

135
00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:46.160
<v Speaker 3>even more heatwaves.

136
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:53.079
<v Speaker 2>I assume that the penguins in Antarctica basically are fish eaters.

137
00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:55.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm assuming that correct.

138
00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:59.279
<v Speaker 3>Fish and squid and krill, So.

139
00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Sure the stuff that you would figure is there an

140
00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:07.279
<v Speaker 2>indication that that food supply is diminishing or is it

141
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:08.160
<v Speaker 2>too early to tell.

142
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:12.920
<v Speaker 3>We know that with less sea ice, you have less

143
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.680
<v Speaker 3>algae growing in that sea ice, and then that will

144
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:19.680
<v Speaker 3>have a condition unless krill being able to grow because

145
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:23.480
<v Speaker 3>the krill eats on that algae. So algae stays under

146
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:25.600
<v Speaker 3>the sea ice and then blooms onto the CS is

147
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:27.519
<v Speaker 3>gone and it really needs the C. I S the

148
00:08:27.600 --> 00:08:30.600
<v Speaker 3>specific algae, get a list there so vers an indication

149
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:35.039
<v Speaker 3>the system that is rather slow. So we actually that's

150
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:38.879
<v Speaker 3>the concerning part. We would not expect to see any

151
00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.279
<v Speaker 3>signal yet all the world was okay, here's totaly another

152
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:45.919
<v Speaker 3>decade or two into this, reallyal lives in an Arctica.

153
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:48.519
<v Speaker 3>And if that signal is true and it really arives

154
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:51.840
<v Speaker 3>now and we already can see those massive changes as

155
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:54.399
<v Speaker 3>our colleagues showed, then that's concerning.

156
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:58.399
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Dan, our connection is not great. I don't know

157
00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>what sort of a phony you're You're down in woods Hall,

158
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:02.840
<v Speaker 2>I assume right.

159
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:04.960
<v Speaker 3>No, I'm excer Seattle.

160
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:07.840
<v Speaker 2>I know in Seattle, Washington. But that's okay. Are you

161
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.159
<v Speaker 2>on like a headset or something or just that.

162
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 3>I just have my phone in my head, just your

163
00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:15.000
<v Speaker 3>cell phone.

164
00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:17.879
<v Speaker 2>How well, we didn't. We didn't luck out on the quality,

165
00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:21.279
<v Speaker 2>but we've I think I've understood uh and my audience

166
00:09:21.279 --> 00:09:24.639
<v Speaker 2>has understood the message, which is most important. So I

167
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:27.600
<v Speaker 2>thank you very much for for for sticking with us

168
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.480
<v Speaker 2>on this, because I know it was probably not a

169
00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:32.960
<v Speaker 2>lot of I know it wasn't easy on your nd

170
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:35.600
<v Speaker 2>easy either. I hope that you could hear me a

171
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:37.519
<v Speaker 2>little more clearly than we could hear you, But thank

172
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:39.279
<v Speaker 2>you for having joined us, and we'll keep an eye

173
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:42.000
<v Speaker 2>on it, and maybe the next time we talked to you,

174
00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:44.039
<v Speaker 2>you'll be a little closer to home and the reception

175
00:09:44.159 --> 00:09:49.519
<v Speaker 2>will be cleaner all around. So wonderful, Thank you very much,

176
00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:51.440
<v Speaker 2>nice to talk to you. Enjoy your time in Seattle.

177
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:53.960
<v Speaker 2>When we get back, we're going to go to the

178
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:55.559
<v Speaker 2>other end of the spectrum here. We're not going to

179
00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:58.399
<v Speaker 2>talk about Antarctica and sea ice. We're going to talk

180
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:03.759
<v Speaker 2>about Boston's extreme heat and its impact on peak energy demand.

181
00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:08.399
<v Speaker 2>Although schools are not in business, air quality on schools,

182
00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:11.200
<v Speaker 2>there are some schools I guess that are still in operation.

183
00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:15.279
<v Speaker 2>And also we're going to talk about urban heat islands.

184
00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:17.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to talk with Sharon Rawn. She's an assistant

185
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:21.240
<v Speaker 2>director of public health at the Metropolitan Area Planning Council

186
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:24.279
<v Speaker 2>here in Massachusetts. We're going to come right back on Nightside.

187
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:27.039
<v Speaker 2>My name is Dan Ray, and I assure you Sharon's

188
00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:31.320
<v Speaker 2>phone reception contact is going to be a little cleaner

189
00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:33.519
<v Speaker 2>than Dan's was. Back on Nightside right after.

190
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:39.159
<v Speaker 1>This, You're on Nightside with Dan Ray. I'm w Boston's

191
00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:40.159
<v Speaker 1>News Radio.

192
00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:44.720
<v Speaker 2>All right, welcome back everybody again. One of our themes

193
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:48.440
<v Speaker 2>tonight is, of course Boston's extreme heat, a lot of

194
00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:51.639
<v Speaker 2>heat here in New England, Ah, well, really anywhere in

195
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:54.639
<v Speaker 2>the eastern two thirds of the United States. And we're

196
00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:57.679
<v Speaker 2>going to talk with Sharon Ron. Sharon is the assistant

197
00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:00.759
<v Speaker 2>director of Public Health at the Metropolitan Area Planning Council

198
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.759
<v Speaker 2>here in Massachusetts. Welcome to nightside, Sharon. How are you.

199
00:11:04.919 --> 00:11:06.360
<v Speaker 4>I'm good, Hi, Dan.

200
00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:10.000
<v Speaker 2>How about explaining I certainly have heard and some of

201
00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:13.759
<v Speaker 2>our listeners have as well, exactly what the Metropolitan Area

202
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:15.320
<v Speaker 2>of Planning Council does.

203
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:20.960
<v Speaker 4>Yes, of course, so Metropolitan Area Planning Council or MAPC,

204
00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:24.360
<v Speaker 4>we're there, regional planning agency for the one hundred and

205
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:28.360
<v Speaker 4>one cities and towns in the Greater Boston area.

206
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:34.039
<v Speaker 2>And under that umbrella of those one hundred and one towns,

207
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:38.039
<v Speaker 2>what sort of planning are you involved in? I assume

208
00:11:38.080 --> 00:11:41.159
<v Speaker 2>that part of it has to be energy consumption and

209
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.759
<v Speaker 2>energy availability.

210
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:46.679
<v Speaker 4>Yes, absolutely so. We have a green energy team that

211
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.159
<v Speaker 4>does a lot of work around energy consumption and green

212
00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:55.039
<v Speaker 4>energy and energy efficiency. We also do land use planning,

213
00:11:55.240 --> 00:12:00.279
<v Speaker 4>so thinking about housing, open space, and recreation needs. I'm

214
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:02.960
<v Speaker 4>on the public health team. So we're working a lot

215
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:06.279
<v Speaker 4>with local public health departments and doing similar sort of

216
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:10.360
<v Speaker 4>planning exercises for planning for the future, and also thinking

217
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:15.159
<v Speaker 4>through what are the policies, the programs and environmental changes

218
00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:19.120
<v Speaker 4>that the local public health departments have under their jurisdiction

219
00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:20.200
<v Speaker 4>that we can support them with.

220
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:23.279
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so all of us know that today was a

221
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:27.919
<v Speaker 2>miserable day unless you were inside in an air conditioned

222
00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:32.120
<v Speaker 2>office building where you weren't paying for the electricity that

223
00:12:32.360 --> 00:12:36.960
<v Speaker 2>was running the air conditioners. But how much of a

224
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:43.559
<v Speaker 2>heat load was put onto the electric and you know,

225
00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:48.639
<v Speaker 2>energy providers here in Massachusetts, this must have been a

226
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.480
<v Speaker 2>tough day for ever Source and National Grid and those

227
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:54.840
<v Speaker 2>all UNITIL and all those sorts of companies.

228
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:59.639
<v Speaker 4>I assume, yeah, it definitely was. We have a peak

229
00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:04.000
<v Speaker 4>demand end program where we're looking at when those utility

230
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:07.440
<v Speaker 4>providers are expecting the peace demanded. Today this afternoon, right

231
00:13:07.480 --> 00:13:11.519
<v Speaker 4>now is during a projected peace demand hered And actually, Dan,

232
00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:14.679
<v Speaker 4>I am sitting here right now, and right before you

233
00:13:14.799 --> 00:13:17.960
<v Speaker 4>called me, I had a power outage because of the heat.

234
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:20.559
<v Speaker 4>So I am living it as we speak.

235
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:23.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, I hope that you're not near where I am

236
00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:25.039
<v Speaker 2>because I have to be in the air for another

237
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:28.679
<v Speaker 2>three and a half hours. So I hate to say this,

238
00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:30.480
<v Speaker 2>but if I had a choice between it happening to

239
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:33.960
<v Speaker 2>you or me, I hate to say that, but I hope,

240
00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:35.639
<v Speaker 2>I hope you're able to get out of Are you

241
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:37.879
<v Speaker 2>in the are you at home or in your office building?

242
00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:42.559
<v Speaker 4>I'm at home. Well, these urban heat islands that we're

243
00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:44.080
<v Speaker 4>worried about.

244
00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, you know, urban heat islands. I know that

245
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:50.840
<v Speaker 2>that became a little bit of a big issue with

246
00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:54.960
<v Speaker 2>the the reconstruction of the new White Stadium and the

247
00:13:55.559 --> 00:13:58.200
<v Speaker 2>new soccer team that is going to play there a

248
00:13:58.200 --> 00:13:59.919
<v Speaker 2>couple of years from now. A lot of the tree

249
00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:04.480
<v Speaker 2>in Franklin Park near the near White Stadium, the footprint

250
00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:06.320
<v Speaker 2>of White Stadium we're taken down, and I know a

251
00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:09.159
<v Speaker 2>lot of people in the community were quite upset about that.

252
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:11.919
<v Speaker 2>A heat island basically is a place where there's a

253
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:17.240
<v Speaker 2>paucity of vegetation and trees at a plethora of a

254
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:22.759
<v Speaker 2>cement and rose fairly accurate definition of what we're talking about.

255
00:14:23.879 --> 00:14:27.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Absolutely, And I think that the concern is not

256
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:30.679
<v Speaker 4>these spaces not only are becoming much hotter during the

257
00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:34.200
<v Speaker 4>day because of all of that paved surface absorbing and

258
00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:37.600
<v Speaker 4>radiating the sun heat. But they also don't cool off

259
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:40.639
<v Speaker 4>as well at night. So it's one thing if it's

260
00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:43.200
<v Speaker 4>the park, but if it's in a neighborhood where people

261
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:46.559
<v Speaker 4>are living and they're not able to cool down at night,

262
00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:49.159
<v Speaker 4>that's when we're starting to really see those negative health

263
00:14:49.159 --> 00:14:52.039
<v Speaker 4>outcomes because your body's just getting no relief from the heat.

264
00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. You know, today, for the first time in my memory,

265
00:14:56.519 --> 00:14:58.840
<v Speaker 2>you watch the news and you hit the weather. Today.

266
00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:00.840
<v Speaker 2>Of course was the leads to and they were talking

267
00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:04.320
<v Speaker 2>about one hundred and one degrees and then the real

268
00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:06.440
<v Speaker 2>feel and all of that stuff. But for the first

269
00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:10.440
<v Speaker 2>time today I saw some of the weather forecasters talking

270
00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:13.639
<v Speaker 2>about what the actual heat was on the pavement in

271
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:17.639
<v Speaker 2>various communities. I have never seen that on a Boston

272
00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Weather's channel before. Maybe I've missed it, but they were

273
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:24.480
<v Speaker 2>saying that the pavement in and around Boston, the pavement,

274
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:27.639
<v Speaker 2>of course, the roadways and the sidewalks up to like

275
00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:31.279
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and thirty six degrees. When I saw that number,

276
00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:35.240
<v Speaker 2>I said to myself, I'm leaving my car idle today.

277
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:37.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to put my poor car and the

278
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:41.639
<v Speaker 2>four tires on one hundred and thirty six degrees pavement.

279
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Had you ever seen had did you happen to see

280
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:46.159
<v Speaker 2>that today in any of the weather forecasts? And did

281
00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:46.759
<v Speaker 2>I miss it?

282
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:52.120
<v Speaker 4>You know in the past, you know, talking about the

283
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:55.879
<v Speaker 4>temperature of services versus the ambient tent pissure of air

284
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.960
<v Speaker 4>is something that we certainly talked about and they're certainly linked.

285
00:15:59.279 --> 00:16:02.320
<v Speaker 4>But when it gets really hot and relentlessly funny like

286
00:16:02.360 --> 00:16:06.159
<v Speaker 4>it is today, the surfaces themselves become a hazard. And

287
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:08.919
<v Speaker 4>I think that what you're talking about, concerned about the

288
00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:11.200
<v Speaker 4>help and safety of your car is certainly what we

289
00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:16.720
<v Speaker 4>start worrying about is if you've cascading failures, because I mean,

290
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:19.519
<v Speaker 4>roads are one thing, but you have seen it with

291
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:22.679
<v Speaker 4>trains where the surfaces of the train mails get so

292
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:26.120
<v Speaker 4>hot that they start to buckle, and so it can

293
00:16:26.200 --> 00:16:30.559
<v Speaker 4>cause in my neighborhoods the power line started to stay

294
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:34.759
<v Speaker 4>set on fire. And so actual surface temperature is starting

295
00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:36.679
<v Speaker 4>to cause damage unto themselves.

296
00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:40.320
<v Speaker 2>So I'm going to ask that question. I have never

297
00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:44.120
<v Speaker 2>seen that before on a weather forecast on television pil

298
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:46.720
<v Speaker 2>they'll give you the temperature, and they'll give you what

299
00:16:46.759 --> 00:16:49.120
<v Speaker 2>the windshield factor is or they'll give you the heat

300
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:51.600
<v Speaker 2>in decks or whatever all of that. But have you

301
00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:54.360
<v Speaker 2>ever seen there was a full screen today that was saying,

302
00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:56.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, roadways in Boston one hundred and thirty six

303
00:16:56.759 --> 00:16:59.840
<v Speaker 2>degrees and somewhere else. I've never seen that before. Have

304
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:02.840
<v Speaker 2>I just been clueless or have you actually seen that

305
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:05.920
<v Speaker 2>in the context of a television weather forecast.

306
00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:08.440
<v Speaker 4>I have not seen it in the context of a

307
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:10.680
<v Speaker 4>television in the forecast. You were one hundred percent right.

308
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:13.200
<v Speaker 4>I normally see it in the context of people talking

309
00:17:13.240 --> 00:17:15.920
<v Speaker 4>about surfaces and playgrounds and where.

310
00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:20.279
<v Speaker 2>Oh. Absolutely. But I will bet you that as this

311
00:17:20.359 --> 00:17:23.640
<v Speaker 2>summer wears on, and if we get some more temperatures

312
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:27.000
<v Speaker 2>like today or even close to today, that this will

313
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:29.880
<v Speaker 2>become a regular feature on some of the weather forecasts.

314
00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:33.400
<v Speaker 2>I just think that you that someone came up with it,

315
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:35.880
<v Speaker 2>and maybe they've been doing that in Houston and Phoenix

316
00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:38.359
<v Speaker 2>for years, but you never would have thought you've seen

317
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:43.559
<v Speaker 2>it in Boston. So equality in schools most schools, I

318
00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:45.920
<v Speaker 2>assume at this point out for the year, right, are

319
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:47.680
<v Speaker 2>we worried about schools at this point?

320
00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:52.319
<v Speaker 4>Well, we're worried about schools because more and more schools

321
00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:54.640
<v Speaker 4>are using or more and more districts are using their

322
00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:59.440
<v Speaker 4>school this district sorry school buildings for summer programming, and

323
00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:02.359
<v Speaker 4>so they are the same old buildings that were in

324
00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:05.720
<v Speaker 4>session a few years ago, and they are just as

325
00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:08.960
<v Speaker 4>ill prepared for heat when their summer sessions as they

326
00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:11.680
<v Speaker 4>were when they were in for normal session. But you're right,

327
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:14.960
<v Speaker 4>I think the majority of students now are out for summer,

328
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:16.799
<v Speaker 4>but it doesn't remain the concern.

329
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, Sharon Ron, thank you very much. Sharon is the

<v Speaker 2>upon which they're just about starting while balancing work, family,

351
00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:25.839
<v Speaker 2>and increasingly complex world. Heather, A lot to talk about here.

<v Speaker 2>How are you the.

353

<v Speaker 5>Saving I am doing well. How are you good?

354
00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Where are you folks located?

355
00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:35.599
<v Speaker 5>I am down on the eastern shore of Maryland, but

356
00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:38.880
<v Speaker 5>most of our employees just work remotely all around the world.

357
00:19:39.160 --> 00:19:42.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, so tell us what does your group? Give

358
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:44.079
<v Speaker 2>said to go? What do you do?

359
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:45.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

360
00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:48.920
<v Speaker 5>So, GIFs and Go was started about ten years ago

361
00:19:49.359 --> 00:19:52.440
<v Speaker 5>a couple siblings and I as a place for people

362
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:55.759
<v Speaker 5>to fundraise easily online and that we share hope. Well,

363
00:19:55.799 --> 00:19:59.240
<v Speaker 5>people are fundraising, so we know some of the big

364
00:19:59.279 --> 00:20:02.400
<v Speaker 5>crowdfunding PLA forms that are out there. We are similar,

365
00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:03.960
<v Speaker 5>but I would say a little better.

366
00:20:05.119 --> 00:20:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay. So, uh so it's founded Vice Vice ad byce

367
00:20:10.039 --> 00:20:13.519
<v Speaker 2>some folks. You know, how did people interact with it?

368
00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:17.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to understand what you what what what people

369
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:21.839
<v Speaker 2>can can can glean glean from your organization is the

370
00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:24.039
<v Speaker 2>word I was looking for. Go ahead, what what? How's it?

371
00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:26.599
<v Speaker 2>How's it? How's how can my listeners be helped by

372
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:27.599
<v Speaker 2>give send and go.

373
00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:30.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so if you were to go to give sendgo

374
00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:33.160
<v Speaker 5>dot com, you would see a bunch of people raising

375
00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:37.079
<v Speaker 5>money for all sorts of things. And so how it

376
00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:40.119
<v Speaker 5>works is and again me and two of my siblings

377
00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:43.640
<v Speaker 5>started this ten years ago. And how it works is

378
00:20:43.640 --> 00:20:45.240
<v Speaker 5>that you would go on and you'd say I need

379
00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:48.279
<v Speaker 5>to raise money. Maybe you get in a car accident

380
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:51.799
<v Speaker 5>and uh it was an unexpected expense, and so you

381
00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:54.519
<v Speaker 5>go on to give send Go, You start a campaign

382
00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:57.240
<v Speaker 5>and then you share it across social media saying I

383
00:20:57.279 --> 00:20:59.960
<v Speaker 5>need some help. I was in this card car accident.

384
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:03.599
<v Speaker 5>Can you please help me? And people it's a fundraising site.

385
00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So this is like go fund me.

386
00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:10.240
<v Speaker 5>It is very similar. A couple of differences where in

387
00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:13.440
<v Speaker 5>more countries available in more countries around the world, our

388
00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:17.319
<v Speaker 5>payment processing fees are less, and we have a hope

389
00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:21.319
<v Speaker 5>aspect of it, where we don't just say you're on

390
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:23.799
<v Speaker 5>your own, go try to raise funds we say we're

391
00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:25.799
<v Speaker 5>going to step in and let you know that you're

392
00:21:25.799 --> 00:21:27.920
<v Speaker 5>not alone while you're raising your funds.

393
00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:33.119
<v Speaker 2>So what can you do to help someone. Let's assume

394
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:36.599
<v Speaker 2>somebody has a I don't know, they have three kids,

395
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:39.400
<v Speaker 2>and they want them to go to summer camp, and

396
00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:42.359
<v Speaker 2>one wants to go to a soccer camp in this direction,

397
00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:45.279
<v Speaker 2>another one to go to a basketball camp in that direction,

398
00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:48.680
<v Speaker 2>and another wants to go to a music camp thirty

399
00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:52.480
<v Speaker 2>miles in the other direction. And the mom or the dad,

400
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:55.839
<v Speaker 2>or maybe it's a single parent, they're they're being pulled

401
00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:59.599
<v Speaker 2>in three different directions. And each camp starts at nine

402
00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:02.359
<v Speaker 2>o'clock runs from nine to three, So you can't drop

403
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:05.839
<v Speaker 2>all of them off simultaneously. You can't afford to buy

404
00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:10.440
<v Speaker 2>a helicopter and buy them parachutes. Is that the sort

405
00:22:10.519 --> 00:22:14.279
<v Speaker 2>of person who can contact you and you guys will

406
00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:19.319
<v Speaker 2>help set up a page for them to to to

407
00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:21.160
<v Speaker 2>make an appeal. Is that the way it works. I'm

408
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:23.359
<v Speaker 2>trying to I'm trying to understand it as best I can,

409
00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:27.000
<v Speaker 2>so you know it. Yeah, I'm giving you hypotheticals that

410
00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:28.680
<v Speaker 2>I think might work. Go ahead.

411
00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:32.039
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, So it's not necessarily that we step in and

412
00:22:32.079 --> 00:22:34.359
<v Speaker 5>help with their every day shuffling kids around.

413
00:22:35.000 --> 00:22:37.559
<v Speaker 2>You're in Maryland, right, I get it, you're in Maryland.

414
00:22:37.640 --> 00:22:40.920
<v Speaker 5>Originally it would be great. I have my own children,

415
00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:41.599
<v Speaker 5>so so.

416
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:43.960
<v Speaker 2>What So someone contacts you and says, gee, I got

417
00:22:43.960 --> 00:22:46.440
<v Speaker 2>three kids are going in this direction. It's gonna I

418
00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:48.359
<v Speaker 2>can drive one of them, but I gotta get some

419
00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:51.000
<v Speaker 2>other parents and I got to chip in. I gotta

420
00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:53.119
<v Speaker 2>raise some money and the tuition.

421
00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:55.480
<v Speaker 5>For these kids to raise. Yeah, maybe you need to

422
00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:58.400
<v Speaker 5>raise money for your summer camp, right, Like, camps are

423
00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:01.000
<v Speaker 5>expensive if you're gonna send your kids camp, and you

424
00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:03.799
<v Speaker 5>know that grandma would love to chip in, and maybe

425
00:23:04.240 --> 00:23:07.000
<v Speaker 5>a couple of aunts and uncles or whoever. You have

426
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:09.680
<v Speaker 5>some people that you know that would be willing to

427
00:23:09.680 --> 00:23:11.240
<v Speaker 5>help because they know you're kind of in a tough

428
00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:14.359
<v Speaker 5>spot with these stray kids and make an ends meet.

429
00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:16.319
<v Speaker 5>And so you come on to gifts end Go you say,

430
00:23:16.359 --> 00:23:20.400
<v Speaker 5>I need help raising money for summer camp this year.

431
00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:22.599
<v Speaker 5>I really think it's going to be a great opportunity

432
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:26.720
<v Speaker 5>for my children. And you just start a campaign on

433
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:28.799
<v Speaker 5>gifts end Go. You do it yourself. We have a

434
00:23:28.799 --> 00:23:31.960
<v Speaker 5>little AI guy who helps you create your campaign and

435
00:23:32.480 --> 00:23:35.720
<v Speaker 5>it's very very easy for people to set up and

436
00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:38.079
<v Speaker 5>then you just start sharing it across social media saying

437
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:42.119
<v Speaker 5>hey grandma, hey sister, can you help me? This is

438
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:45.480
<v Speaker 5>where I am here. I have these three kids, they

439
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:47.759
<v Speaker 5>all need to go to summer camp, and you know that.

440
00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:49.880
<v Speaker 5>You know, my husband just got laid off and things

441
00:23:49.880 --> 00:23:52.519
<v Speaker 5>are really tight. And then your friends and family. The

442
00:23:52.839 --> 00:23:55.160
<v Speaker 5>way it works is your friends and family and community.

443
00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:57.559
<v Speaker 5>It gives an easy place for them to come around

444
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:01.680
<v Speaker 5>you and step up and help for the different needs.

445
00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:04.519
<v Speaker 5>A lot of times we see it more in the

446
00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:08.960
<v Speaker 5>like tragedy type of things, like something really unexpected happens,

447
00:24:09.119 --> 00:24:11.160
<v Speaker 5>right like you get a diagnosis.

448
00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:14.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah no, yeah, yeah, we we all can allow our

449
00:24:14.160 --> 00:24:17.039
<v Speaker 2>imaginations to run there. So here's my question. If you're

450
00:24:17.079 --> 00:24:21.319
<v Speaker 2>going to basically reach out to Grandmama, you know, Auntie Rita,

451
00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:26.400
<v Speaker 2>uncle Harry uh, and your long lost cousin in Philadelphia,

452
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:30.279
<v Speaker 2>why do they need give send and go? I mean,

453
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:34.640
<v Speaker 2>can't they? I don't. That's what I assumed. It would

454
00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:36.720
<v Speaker 2>be one of these things where someone would put together

455
00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:42.079
<v Speaker 2>a pitch and they would put it out there in

456
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:44.920
<v Speaker 2>in a in a forum, in a public forum, and

457
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:48.319
<v Speaker 2>someone maybe in Kansas would look at it and say, oh,

458
00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:50.839
<v Speaker 2>I remember when I had three kids that summer twenty

459
00:24:50.880 --> 00:24:53.359
<v Speaker 2>years ago. When they're all gone and you know, different

460
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:58.599
<v Speaker 2>compass points, and so that's it's more. They help you,

461
00:24:58.720 --> 00:25:02.440
<v Speaker 2>help them develop a pitch that they can make either

462
00:25:02.480 --> 00:25:05.920
<v Speaker 2>to their local community, to their neighborhood, or to their

463
00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:08.680
<v Speaker 2>family and friends. That's what I'm beginning to hear, sound

464
00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:09.720
<v Speaker 2>sound like from you?

465
00:25:10.519 --> 00:25:13.559
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, So gift sung Goo is a fundraising site. That

466
00:25:13.680 --> 00:25:17.319
<v Speaker 5>is what we are. We're not a community a do

467
00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:19.160
<v Speaker 5>you have a refrigerator? Mine's gone.

468
00:25:19.359 --> 00:25:22.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm not asking that question. No, no, no, no,

469
00:25:23.960 --> 00:25:26.000
<v Speaker 2>we're not on the same page. I just want to

470
00:25:26.000 --> 00:25:29.480
<v Speaker 2>make it clear from my audience that you could start

471
00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:31.720
<v Speaker 2>a go Fundme page and you could say, to go

472
00:25:31.799 --> 00:25:36.599
<v Speaker 2>fund me, I need money because my kids, they're all

473
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:39.519
<v Speaker 2>teenagers and they want to do sports. I don't want

474
00:25:39.559 --> 00:25:42.240
<v Speaker 2>them sitting at home. And you can go on GoFundMe.

475
00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:44.480
<v Speaker 2>What what service?

476
00:25:46.519 --> 00:25:48.319
<v Speaker 5>So the same thing on gifts seng Go. We have

477
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:52.359
<v Speaker 5>less processing fees. We have the same tools, if not more,

478
00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:56.960
<v Speaker 5>to help you share your campaign easily effectively across social media.

479
00:25:57.799 --> 00:26:01.119
<v Speaker 5>But really we are the same as far as what

480
00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:04.640
<v Speaker 5>we do. We allow people to raise funds easily online

481
00:26:05.319 --> 00:26:09.000
<v Speaker 5>from a community of people, and that we have people

482
00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:11.599
<v Speaker 5>come on to our site looking for people to give

483
00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:13.400
<v Speaker 5>to you, but most of the time it's going to

484
00:26:13.400 --> 00:26:16.519
<v Speaker 5>be your friends and family because that's how fund raising works, right.

485
00:26:16.759 --> 00:26:20.920
<v Speaker 2>And that's so you're you're different from goalfundme because whenever

486
00:26:21.039 --> 00:26:24.200
<v Speaker 2>I've seen and we do a lot of this here

487
00:26:23.599 --> 00:26:27.759
<v Speaker 2>uh here, and that's normally with you know, where the

488
00:26:27.799 --> 00:26:31.599
<v Speaker 2>tragedy has occurred, uh and and all of a sudden

489
00:26:31.680 --> 00:26:36.400
<v Speaker 2>a family's life has been turned upside down by you know,

490
00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:41.160
<v Speaker 2>some of the most horrible circumstances. And and oftentimes you'll

491
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:44.200
<v Speaker 2>see a goalfundme page and someone will set a goal

492
00:26:44.240 --> 00:26:48.119
<v Speaker 2>of raising fifty thousand dollars uh and they will exceed

493
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:50.359
<v Speaker 2>that in the first day, and they'll have one hundred

494
00:26:50.359 --> 00:26:52.920
<v Speaker 2>thousand dollars and you'll find out that they, you know,

495
00:26:53.359 --> 00:26:56.519
<v Speaker 2>they've raised a college scholarship fund or something like that.

496
00:26:56.519 --> 00:26:59.119
<v Speaker 2>That's what I think. If it's gofund me, I guess

497
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:02.599
<v Speaker 2>you could do that as well. But you're you're more

498
00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:09.440
<v Speaker 2>laser focused on people who know your clients. So when

499
00:27:09.480 --> 00:27:12.039
<v Speaker 2>I come to you, you're going to say, well, who

500
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:15.599
<v Speaker 2>are your friends, who are your relatives, who are your neighbors,

501
00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:16.400
<v Speaker 2>who can we.

502
00:27:16.440 --> 00:27:18.960
<v Speaker 5>It's going to be the same as GoFundMe. It is

503
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:21.920
<v Speaker 5>going to be the same thing. We are the second

504
00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:26.480
<v Speaker 5>largest platform undergo fundme. We are their direct competitor. Think

505
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:29.319
<v Speaker 5>of how you think of GoFundMe. That is who we are.

506
00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:34.759
<v Speaker 5>We just yeah, like I said, we have less. We

507
00:27:34.839 --> 00:27:37.039
<v Speaker 5>have a couple of things that differentiate us, but it

508
00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:39.880
<v Speaker 5>is going to be the same sort of process. As

509
00:27:39.920 --> 00:27:42.200
<v Speaker 5>far as what people we see a lot of those

510
00:27:42.200 --> 00:27:44.640
<v Speaker 5>tragedies and things like that as well on gibzend go.

511
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:46.640
<v Speaker 5>That is how people raise ones.

512
00:27:47.720 --> 00:27:49.759
<v Speaker 2>Yep, So you've been around how long now?

513
00:27:50.960 --> 00:27:54.319
<v Speaker 5>We have been around ten years. This is our tenth year.

514
00:27:54.480 --> 00:27:56.559
<v Speaker 2>Did you predate go fund me because it sounds to

515
00:27:56.599 --> 00:27:58.680
<v Speaker 2>me like they probably came around that same time.

516
00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:02.799
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, they were there a couple of years prior to us.

517
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:06.400
<v Speaker 5>We had seen seen them and thought, what a cool idea?

518
00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:10.839
<v Speaker 5>Are there any other based type platforms like this? And

519
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:11.880
<v Speaker 5>we launched.

520
00:28:13.799 --> 00:28:17.559
<v Speaker 2>Okay, uh, they got competition fair enough. Heather appreciates your

521
00:28:17.599 --> 00:28:19.559
<v Speaker 2>call very much. Thank you so much for talking with

522
00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:23.400
<v Speaker 2>us tonight. Have a great night, Thank you. Okay, back

523
00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:24.759
<v Speaker 2>on Nightside right after this.

524
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:31.359
<v Speaker 1>Night Side with Dan Ray on Boston's news radio.

525
00:28:31.960 --> 00:28:37.880
<v Speaker 2>Well as sometimes happened. Professional sports teams trade players and

526
00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:43.400
<v Speaker 2>sometimes when guests don't show who we expect to be available,

527
00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:46.359
<v Speaker 2>we sometimes go to the bullpen. And we're very lucky

528
00:28:46.359 --> 00:28:49.079
<v Speaker 2>to have Dan Watkins with us, who not only is

529
00:28:49.119 --> 00:28:51.839
<v Speaker 2>a news anchor, but he liked me, is also a

530
00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:54.559
<v Speaker 2>sports guy, and he probably is a little stronger than

531
00:28:54.559 --> 00:28:56.319
<v Speaker 2>I am a couple of sports. I might be a

532
00:28:56.359 --> 00:28:59.599
<v Speaker 2>little stronger in baseball history. But Dan, let's talk about

533
00:28:59.599 --> 00:29:03.319
<v Speaker 2>the sell picks. They're offloading. They're they're doing a little

534
00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:07.079
<v Speaker 2>bit of what the the Red Sox did with Raffie Devers,

535
00:29:07.160 --> 00:29:10.319
<v Speaker 2>and they're floating some of their talent so that they

536
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:15.160
<v Speaker 2>can uh diminish the amount of rep tax revenue they're

537
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:17.720
<v Speaker 2>gonna have to pay the league. What's going on?

538
00:29:17.960 --> 00:29:21.200
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, So the Celtics, they keep reshaping this roster. Right,

539
00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:24.319
<v Speaker 6>they've stripped away some big time pieces from the championship

540
00:29:24.319 --> 00:29:27.799
<v Speaker 6>team last year. Drew Holliday gets traded last night to Portland,

541
00:29:28.039 --> 00:29:29.960
<v Speaker 6>back to his old team, right for the team, to

542
00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:33.039
<v Speaker 6>the team that the Celtics got him from a couple

543
00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:35.279
<v Speaker 6>of years ago. Uh, And in return they get a

544
00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:36.880
<v Speaker 6>guy in Anthony Anthony Simons.

545
00:29:36.920 --> 00:29:38.759
<v Speaker 2>He'll know where the good news is when he gets

546
00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:40.599
<v Speaker 2>to Portland, He'll know how to get to the arena.

547
00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:42.440
<v Speaker 6>You would think, so, well, sure.

548
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:45.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, yeah, they forgot maybe sublet the the wows.

549
00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:47.680
<v Speaker 6>I liked Holiday, I did too. I thought he was

550
00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:49.839
<v Speaker 6>everything that the Celtics need. He was that adult in

551
00:29:49.880 --> 00:29:52.839
<v Speaker 6>the room that that they desperately needed at the time.

552
00:29:52.920 --> 00:29:55.680
<v Speaker 6>And you know, he's gonna go down as a you know,

553
00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:58.480
<v Speaker 6>fans are gonna I think we'll always appreciate what Drew

554
00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:01.000
<v Speaker 6>Holliday did for this two years.

555
00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:03.599
<v Speaker 2>One championship, right, that's not bad. Bat in five hundred.

556
00:30:03.640 --> 00:30:04.720
<v Speaker 6>Absolutely, who's the guy.

557
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:07.000
<v Speaker 2>They're getting there getting a guy plus two draft choices,

558
00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:11.279
<v Speaker 2>second round choices, which is pretty good. I assume this

559
00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:12.160
<v Speaker 2>player is younger.

560
00:30:12.359 --> 00:30:15.039
<v Speaker 6>Anthony Simons is his name. He's nine years younger than

561
00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:17.119
<v Speaker 6>Drew Holliday. He's only twenty six. He's got a year

562
00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:19.880
<v Speaker 6>left on his deal. He's making somewhere in the twenty

563
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:22.480
<v Speaker 6>million dollar range heading in the next year, which was

564
00:30:22.519 --> 00:30:25.000
<v Speaker 6>a It is a salary cap relief because Holiday was

565
00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:26.279
<v Speaker 6>scheduled to make in the thirties.

566
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:28.759
<v Speaker 2>But Holiday's also working on a four year deal.

567
00:30:28.960 --> 00:30:29.400
<v Speaker 6>That's true.

568
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and so not only next year, but whoever's got

569
00:30:32.039 --> 00:30:32.440
<v Speaker 2>him then.

570
00:30:32.400 --> 00:30:35.519
<v Speaker 6>Has to be responsible, big time deal. Okay, so they

571
00:30:35.519 --> 00:30:37.279
<v Speaker 6>did that. They peeled him away last night.

572
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:40.519
<v Speaker 2>They have you seen this this player for Portland again.

573
00:30:40.559 --> 00:30:43.960
<v Speaker 2>We see the Trailblazers once a year. They're not right,

574
00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:45.640
<v Speaker 2>they're not a you.

575
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:47.680
<v Speaker 6>Know, they're not a marquee team.

576
00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:50.319
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, they're not the Lakers. You got a line

577
00:30:50.319 --> 00:30:51.759
<v Speaker 2>in this guy's holiday.

578
00:30:51.880 --> 00:30:54.640
<v Speaker 6>So he's a decent three point shooter. He's a really

579
00:30:54.680 --> 00:30:58.359
<v Speaker 6>good offensive player. Defense though, he is definitely a massive

580
00:30:58.400 --> 00:31:01.079
<v Speaker 6>downgrade from Drew Holliday. That is what I've read and

581
00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:04.839
<v Speaker 6>what I've heard. And then tonight the Celtics with another trade,

582
00:31:05.039 --> 00:31:09.039
<v Speaker 6>ESPN's Sham Shrania reporting that they're sending Kristaps Porzingis to

583
00:31:09.079 --> 00:31:11.279
<v Speaker 6>the Atlanta Hawks and part of a three team deal

584
00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:14.559
<v Speaker 6>where Atlanta's sending their first round pick tomorrow night to

585
00:31:14.559 --> 00:31:17.400
<v Speaker 6>Brooklyn and the Celtics are getting George's Niang, who is

586
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:20.720
<v Speaker 6>from Lawrence. He's a local guy. He's in his thirties.

587
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:22.799
<v Speaker 6>He's another kind of a three point shooter guy.

588
00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:26.960
<v Speaker 2>And then older player, the older Yeah, if he's in

589
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:29.400
<v Speaker 2>his thirties, yes, as he bounced around. I had not.

590
00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:31.200
<v Speaker 6>He has been with He had been with Cleveland for

591
00:31:31.240 --> 00:31:33.440
<v Speaker 6>a while. He was traded to the Hawks during the

592
00:31:33.480 --> 00:31:35.440
<v Speaker 6>season this year, so he's been He's a little bit

593
00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:37.680
<v Speaker 6>of a journeyman. We'll see if the Celtics hang onto

594
00:31:37.680 --> 00:31:39.359
<v Speaker 6>these guys or not, or if they're just if this

595
00:31:39.400 --> 00:31:41.640
<v Speaker 6>is just part of like a domino effect where they're

596
00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:44.680
<v Speaker 6>going to move them later on. Celtics also get a

597
00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:46.720
<v Speaker 6>couple of second round picks here in this deal too.

598
00:31:46.799 --> 00:31:49.960
<v Speaker 6>This one felt much more like a pure salary dump.

599
00:31:51.799 --> 00:32:02.039
<v Speaker 2>Well. Peringius also had some medical issues and short term

600
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:05.279
<v Speaker 2>he had some sort of a bug this up spring

601
00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:10.000
<v Speaker 2>that limited his time in the playoffs.

602
00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:11.960
<v Speaker 6>Right, and then he's also had you know, physical injuries

603
00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:14.400
<v Speaker 6>as well throughout the years too. So I'm guessing with

604
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:17.319
<v Speaker 6>based off of the return, that there might have been

605
00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:19.200
<v Speaker 6>something going on with the medicals as well there that

606
00:32:19.240 --> 00:32:22.799
<v Speaker 6>Atlanta might not be totally sure what they're getting here

607
00:32:23.000 --> 00:32:25.000
<v Speaker 6>in Porzingis, and that's why the Celtics didn't get as

608
00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:28.119
<v Speaker 6>much back along with the salary to Porzingis, another guy

609
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:30.640
<v Speaker 6>that's is set to make in the thirty millions of

610
00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:33.680
<v Speaker 6>dollars coming up next season, where Niang is only on

611
00:32:33.680 --> 00:32:35.200
<v Speaker 6>the books for about eight million dollars.

612
00:32:35.240 --> 00:32:39.000
<v Speaker 2>So por Singis is going to play in an international

613
00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:41.920
<v Speaker 2>tournament this summer for his native lat FiOS. I understand

614
00:32:41.960 --> 00:32:42.400
<v Speaker 2>it correct.

615
00:32:42.480 --> 00:32:44.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, he usually does that whenever is the Foeba or

616
00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:47.519
<v Speaker 6>the whatever those those tournaments are called. There's so many

617
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:49.200
<v Speaker 6>of them now, I can't keep them all away.

618
00:32:49.160 --> 00:32:52.079
<v Speaker 2>From the Hawks. He seems to be such a fragile

619
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:55.240
<v Speaker 2>player for you know, for a big center guy. I

620
00:32:55.519 --> 00:32:59.519
<v Speaker 2>don't know that I've won him playing that summer basketball.

621
00:32:58.640 --> 00:33:01.319
<v Speaker 6>Right, Well, yeah, I would assume so I would probably

622
00:33:01.319 --> 00:33:02.440
<v Speaker 6>feel the same way there too.

623
00:33:02.480 --> 00:33:06.079
<v Speaker 2>But okay, now let's move. Let's move to baseball. Okay,

624
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:08.440
<v Speaker 2>we're going to get in territory that we're both comfortable in.

625
00:33:08.599 --> 00:33:09.079
<v Speaker 6>Let's do it.

626
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:12.440
<v Speaker 2>So the Red Sox tonight, as you know, reached the

627
00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:16.160
<v Speaker 2>halfway point of the season. Yep, forty and forty has

628
00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:17.839
<v Speaker 2>a nice round ring to it.

629
00:33:17.920 --> 00:33:20.000
<v Speaker 6>Perfectly perfectly balanced, Yes.

630
00:33:19.880 --> 00:33:25.119
<v Speaker 2>Perfectly balanced. Cora went nuts last night and was ejected

631
00:33:25.480 --> 00:33:28.519
<v Speaker 2>second straight night. Yeah, for good reason. I mean I

632
00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:32.720
<v Speaker 2>thought he was. I think he objected correctly. New York

633
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:35.640
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't overturn the call, and he ended up with the umpire,

634
00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:38.599
<v Speaker 2>which to me seemed crazy. I mean, the replay seemed

635
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:41.359
<v Speaker 2>to indicate that the hand was back on the bag.

636
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:49.920
<v Speaker 2>They got problems here. They In order to make the playoffs,

637
00:33:50.640 --> 00:33:53.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking you got to get to about ninety wins

638
00:33:53.640 --> 00:33:57.440
<v Speaker 2>these days. So for the last eighty or so, they

639
00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:59.400
<v Speaker 2>got to go fifty and thirty. They got to go

640
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:01.599
<v Speaker 2>twenty games over five hundred. Is that doable?

641
00:34:02.279 --> 00:34:04.680
<v Speaker 6>I don't think that's doable. They are fortunate though that

642
00:34:04.720 --> 00:34:07.240
<v Speaker 6>the American League is down this year. So if you

643
00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:09.079
<v Speaker 6>look right now, the Red Sox are only a game

644
00:34:09.119 --> 00:34:11.719
<v Speaker 6>and a half out of that last spot. Teams like Seattle,

645
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:13.440
<v Speaker 6>who the Socks have beaten this year ahead of them.

646
00:34:13.480 --> 00:34:15.719
<v Speaker 6>They got a huge series with the Blue Jays coming

647
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:17.559
<v Speaker 6>up this weekend, who are a couple of games ahead

648
00:34:17.559 --> 00:34:19.079
<v Speaker 6>of them right now too. They just need to start

649
00:34:19.119 --> 00:34:21.719
<v Speaker 6>beating these teams that are, you know, right in their

650
00:34:21.760 --> 00:34:23.719
<v Speaker 6>way to getting to the playoffs. And they need to

651
00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:26.079
<v Speaker 6>stop making these little league mistakes that they're making every

652
00:34:26.119 --> 00:34:27.719
<v Speaker 6>single night. I mean, that's the only way I can

653
00:34:27.760 --> 00:34:30.000
<v Speaker 6>describe what they're doing on the baseball field here. Most

654
00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:33.760
<v Speaker 6>nights you got guys dropping balls, the unearned runs. Yeah,

655
00:34:33.760 --> 00:34:35.960
<v Speaker 6>it's it's the I don't know if you saw. I

656
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:37.199
<v Speaker 6>know it was the Giants.

657
00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, you're talking about Duran running into eating it

658
00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:42.119
<v Speaker 2>on that pop fly behind third base.

659
00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:43.960
<v Speaker 6>That was over the weekend and then last night. This

660
00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:46.119
<v Speaker 6>was while you were on the air during during night's side.

661
00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:49.400
<v Speaker 6>But the double play that they hit themselves into, oh yeah,

662
00:34:49.440 --> 00:34:50.679
<v Speaker 6>was absolutely.

663
00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:53.039
<v Speaker 2>I saw the replay on that and Dan, I'll tell

664
00:34:53.079 --> 00:34:56.679
<v Speaker 2>you a secret. Occasionally during a news break, I take

665
00:34:56.719 --> 00:34:58.199
<v Speaker 2>a little peek at the TV set.

666
00:34:58.360 --> 00:35:00.960
<v Speaker 6>Good for you, if you know what I'm saying.

667
00:35:01.079 --> 00:35:03.800
<v Speaker 2>So Hun did Dobbins and now has a little bit

668
00:35:03.840 --> 00:35:04.800
<v Speaker 2>of an elbow problem.

669
00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:07.079
<v Speaker 6>Yep, they bring Fits back up.

670
00:35:07.360 --> 00:35:09.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I like Fits. I got to tell you something.

671
00:35:09.639 --> 00:35:12.039
<v Speaker 2>I loved the guy last September. He didn't win a game.

672
00:35:12.239 --> 00:35:15.159
<v Speaker 2>I think he's zero to three this year. Uh, but

673
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:17.760
<v Speaker 2>I just like his stuff. He looks to me like

674
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:21.679
<v Speaker 2>a pitcher. He's got that that that lower body strength.

675
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:25.599
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he's the best

676
00:35:25.639 --> 00:35:28.880
<v Speaker 2>thing the Red Sox have after Crochet in the second half.

677
00:35:28.920 --> 00:35:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Are you buying that or no?

678
00:35:30.119 --> 00:35:33.119
<v Speaker 6>They need someone to step up here because I've had

679
00:35:33.119 --> 00:35:35.639
<v Speaker 6>about enough of watching Walker Bueller every night. The guy's

680
00:35:35.639 --> 00:35:37.760
<v Speaker 6>saying the right things, but man, it is not working

681
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:39.960
<v Speaker 6>right now. He was hurt earlier this year. Since he's

682
00:35:40.000 --> 00:35:43.039
<v Speaker 6>come back, his e RA is over eight, which is terrible.

683
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:46.119
<v Speaker 6>Gilido has been you know, he's been okay. He's given

684
00:35:46.159 --> 00:35:49.360
<v Speaker 6>them innings, his velocities up, which is huge for him.

685
00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:51.920
<v Speaker 6>He needs that because he's really only throwing two pitches

686
00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:53.840
<v Speaker 6>at this point with his fastball and his change up

687
00:35:54.719 --> 00:35:58.239
<v Speaker 6>and then yeah, other than that, and I still hold

688
00:35:58.239 --> 00:36:00.840
<v Speaker 6>out hope for Brian Bao to take that next step.

689
00:36:02.079 --> 00:36:04.559
<v Speaker 2>Looten looked, well, thank god the Bruin, Thank god the

690
00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:07.119
<v Speaker 2>rid Sox swept the Yankees. If they hadn't swept the Yankees,

691
00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:10.119
<v Speaker 2>that'd be six games under. Instead of being forty and forty,

692
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:12.400
<v Speaker 2>they'd be thirty seven and forty three, and uh and

693
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:19.440
<v Speaker 2>maybe all hope would be lost. I I I last

694
00:36:19.519 --> 00:36:22.039
<v Speaker 2>night they would have three nothing in the top of

695
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:25.880
<v Speaker 2>the first and by the time the Angels had finished

696
00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:27.920
<v Speaker 2>the inning they were with the Angels were winning five

697
00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:31.760
<v Speaker 2>to three. Peaceful. Where was that shutdown inning that Beulah

698
00:36:31.760 --> 00:36:32.480
<v Speaker 2>had to provide them?

699
00:36:32.519 --> 00:36:34.599
<v Speaker 6>First first pitch home run for the.

700
00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:38.159
<v Speaker 2>Oils netto put it in the leftfield bleacher I happened

701
00:36:38.159 --> 00:36:39.400
<v Speaker 2>to be seeing. I saw that.

702
00:36:39.639 --> 00:36:41.159
<v Speaker 6>I think he hit a couple when they were here

703
00:36:41.159 --> 00:36:41.679
<v Speaker 6>a few weeks.

704
00:36:41.800 --> 00:36:44.159
<v Speaker 2>Yes he did, Yes he did. They got some. You know,

705
00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:47.360
<v Speaker 2>he's hitting better than Trout does at this point. At

706
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:50.840
<v Speaker 2>this point, hey, Dan, you pinch it for me tonight, relief, pitch, whatever,

707
00:36:51.199 --> 00:36:53.519
<v Speaker 2>whatever metaphor. We want to use you the best. Thanks man,

708
00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:55.440
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate it, and I always.

709
00:36:55.199 --> 00:36:56.199
<v Speaker 6>Enjoy talking with same.

710
00:36:56.400 --> 00:36:58.960
<v Speaker 2>You really do same here back at you we get back.

711
00:36:59.000 --> 00:37:02.159
<v Speaker 2>We're going to talk with the president, the CEO of

712
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Global Partners. This is a huge energy company here in Massachusetts,

713
00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:10.639
<v Speaker 2>been around almost one hundred years, founded by the family

714
00:37:10.840 --> 00:37:14.239
<v Speaker 2>of Eric slip Cup. He feels as if they have

715
00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:17.159
<v Speaker 2>gotten the short end of the stick on a huge

716
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:20.960
<v Speaker 2>deal that has gone out of state and out of country.

717
00:37:21.079 --> 00:37:23.679
<v Speaker 2>We will explain right after the nine o'clock news here

718
00:37:23.719 --> 00:37:24.239
<v Speaker 2>at night side
