00:00:01.360 --> 00:00:06.320
<v Speaker 1>It's Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZY, Boston's news radio.

2
00:00:07.280 --> 00:00:10.880
<v Speaker 2>Thank you very much to call a cold Tuesday night

3
00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:13.560
<v Speaker 2>here in New England. But what else do you expect?

4
00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:16.920
<v Speaker 2>It is January twenty eighth, believe it or not. By

5
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:19.719
<v Speaker 2>week's end, we will already be in the month of February.

6
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:22.679
<v Speaker 2>And that warms my heart a little bit because with

7
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:25.839
<v Speaker 2>February comes spring training, and you know how I feel

8
00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:29.640
<v Speaker 2>about baseball. Rob Brooks is back in the control room tonight.

9
00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:32.200
<v Speaker 2>He's all set to take your phone calls beginning in

10
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:35.359
<v Speaker 2>the nine o'clock hour. We will talk in the nine

11
00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:39.880
<v Speaker 2>o'clock hour about four mayors, including our own mayor WU

12
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:44.280
<v Speaker 2>here in Boston, being called to Washington as mayors of

13
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:48.280
<v Speaker 2>sanctuary cities to talk about what is going on in Boston,

14
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:50.679
<v Speaker 2>New York, Chicago, and Denver. And then we're going to

15
00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:54.159
<v Speaker 2>talk at ten o'clock tonight about I hope an executive

16
00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:56.759
<v Speaker 2>order by President trumpet all of us can agree upon,

17
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:00.439
<v Speaker 2>and that is to open up the files dealing with

18
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:05.079
<v Speaker 2>the assassinations of President Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and

19
00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:08.760
<v Speaker 2>doctor Martin Luther King A long time coming. What has

20
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:12.760
<v Speaker 2>taken so long, let's hope we can finally all come

21
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:15.680
<v Speaker 2>to an agreement and an understanding of what happened. But

22
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:18.680
<v Speaker 2>before we do that, we have four very interesting guests

23
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:21.159
<v Speaker 2>to deal with tonight, and we're going to start talking

24
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:28.680
<v Speaker 2>about Arts Emerson's Winter Spring twenty twenty five film programming.

25
00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:32.439
<v Speaker 2>Everyone knows Emerson College in Boston, very creative group of

26
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:36.079
<v Speaker 2>students with us as Susan Jinsen, the creative producer for

27
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Arts Emerson in charge of this film series. Susan, I'm

28
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:41.840
<v Speaker 2>not sure if you're a professor at the school. If

29
00:01:41.879 --> 00:01:43.920
<v Speaker 2>you are, I certainly want to be able to use

30
00:01:43.959 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 2>the appellation. Professor. How are you this evening?

31
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 3>I am very well then, really excited to be here.

32
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:51.840
<v Speaker 3>I no, no, I don't have the accolade of getting

33
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:52.799
<v Speaker 3>to be called a professor.

34
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's fine, I'll think of you as one. So

35
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:02.400
<v Speaker 2>tell us generally the winter Spring film season, it sounds

36
00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:06.640
<v Speaker 2>to me like an annual event at Emerson College. Yeah.

37
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:08.879
<v Speaker 3>For the past few years, coming out of COVID, we've

38
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:12.919
<v Speaker 3>been trying to present a series of films for folks

39
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:17.560
<v Speaker 3>to attend, usually starting in February that runs through May.

40
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:22.000
<v Speaker 2>And this year it looks like quite a list of films.

41
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Tell us the number and the scope, and then we

42
00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:27.840
<v Speaker 2>can get into some of them that you'd like to highlight.

43
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:32.919
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we have two sort of main strands of a series.

44
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:36.599
<v Speaker 3>One is called Projecting Connections, and that comes a lot

45
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:40.479
<v Speaker 3>of out of my background. I had previously been the

46
00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:43.919
<v Speaker 3>managing director of the Chinese Historical Society of New England

47
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:47.199
<v Speaker 3>here in Boston, and had also founded the Boston Asian

48
00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:49.960
<v Speaker 3>American Film Festival. So sort of taking all of those things,

49
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:54.240
<v Speaker 3>finding a way to continue to connect with the residents

50
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:57.080
<v Speaker 3>and communities that connect with Boston's Chinatown, which is neighboring

51
00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:00.439
<v Speaker 3>right next to Emerson College. And the second brand is

52
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:03.759
<v Speaker 3>called Shared Stories, and it's a collaboration between the Boston

53
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:08.680
<v Speaker 3>Asian American Film Festival, Cinefest Latino, and Roxbury International Film Festival.

54
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.080
<v Speaker 3>But where are the three of us really in that

55
00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:14.120
<v Speaker 3>idea of like shared stories. It's like not just filmmakers

56
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:17.120
<v Speaker 3>sharing stories, but the shared stories between our three communities

57
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:20.560
<v Speaker 3>wanting to sort of talk about and uplift shared experiences

58
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:20.919
<v Speaker 3>that way.

59
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:27.360
<v Speaker 2>So the films describe are they documentary type films? Are

60
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:32.000
<v Speaker 2>what's the normal length? Can you go one night and

61
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:34.199
<v Speaker 2>watch two or three, you know, in a in a

62
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:36.240
<v Speaker 2>single setting. Set it up for me so that we

63
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:41.879
<v Speaker 2>better understand, you know, people might be interested, what to anticipate.

64
00:03:41.960 --> 00:03:46.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think we're there for anybody who either is

65
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:49.080
<v Speaker 3>looking for something on a more regular basis. Each of

66
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.919
<v Speaker 3>the series has one screening a month, and you can

67
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:55.319
<v Speaker 3>either choose to go to just you know one based

68
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:58.960
<v Speaker 3>on the content interest, or you can also I think

69
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:01.240
<v Speaker 3>this is the first SHOAR we've got actually came up

70
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.120
<v Speaker 3>with a bundle package where you can actually just pay

71
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.800
<v Speaker 3>like one fee, very inexpensive, and you can get to

72
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:08.960
<v Speaker 3>go to all of them. Some of them do have

73
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:11.360
<v Speaker 3>paid admission and some of a handful of them are free,

74
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:16.319
<v Speaker 3>but the majority of them are predominantly documentary films probably

75
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:19.079
<v Speaker 3>run about like anywhere from an hour to ninety minutes.

76
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:22.439
<v Speaker 3>We often have the filmmakers join us for conversations. That's

77
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:24.839
<v Speaker 3>a big part of I think all of our film

78
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:27.120
<v Speaker 3>presentations is that we're really looking to find ways to

79
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.160
<v Speaker 3>bring people together. You know, this idea of how art

80
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:33.720
<v Speaker 3>can bring people together, change minds and hearts and really

81
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:37.399
<v Speaker 3>connect and given how this country and how communities and

82
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:39.879
<v Speaker 3>neighbors even are, you know, we're really looking to try

83
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:41.480
<v Speaker 3>and find ways for people to be able to talk

84
00:04:41.480 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 3>to one another and looking at film to do that,

85
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:46.360
<v Speaker 3>and on the opportunity to engage with the filmmakers that

86
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:49.720
<v Speaker 3>come is really a wonderful way to really find out how,

87
00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:52.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, what the intention of those artists are with

88
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:53.040
<v Speaker 3>their work.

89
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Talking to each others are a very good idea. That's

90
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.600
<v Speaker 2>sort of the basis of my program here Nights that

91
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:00.480
<v Speaker 2>with Dan. Right, So, it looks to me you have

92
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:05.800
<v Speaker 2>twelve films, if I'm correct here as I count about

93
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:07.240
<v Speaker 2>a dozen films, correct.

94
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:08.680
<v Speaker 4>I believe?

95
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:10.920
<v Speaker 3>So, yeah, you probably have in front of you more

96
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:12.480
<v Speaker 3>than I do. But that sounds about right.

97
00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:15.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I do. But I assume that you know a

98
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:16.639
<v Speaker 2>heckup a lot more about this than I do. So

99
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:21.279
<v Speaker 2>that's why I'm asking. So the filmmakers, the people who

100
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 2>put the films together. Some of them might be students,

101
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:28.079
<v Speaker 2>some of them might be folks from the neighboring communities.

102
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:30.199
<v Speaker 2>Is what I think I'm picking up from you? Is

103
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:32.079
<v Speaker 2>that correct? Well?

104
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:34.800
<v Speaker 3>Actually, these ones are for the most part, they're all

105
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:40.399
<v Speaker 3>you know, documentary filmmakers or filmmakers who have been established professionals.

106
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:43.759
<v Speaker 3>Art Summerson is part of the arm of Emerson College,

107
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:48.600
<v Speaker 3>which is in charge of presenting public facing theater and

108
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:53.079
<v Speaker 3>now film, so it's pretty much professional, you know, international

109
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:56.879
<v Speaker 3>to national stories and filmmakers. Many of these stories actually

110
00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:59.920
<v Speaker 3>come out from outside of the New England Boston area.

111
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:04.199
<v Speaker 3>Think actually, of the film that we're presenting, Nine Man

112
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:07.040
<v Speaker 3>by Ursula Yang is the only one who has connections.

113
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:10.279
<v Speaker 3>She came out of Newton, Massachusetts. But the rest of them,

114
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:12.959
<v Speaker 3>a number of them have been featured like at fun Dance,

115
00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:16.120
<v Speaker 3>and then some of them are actually world premieres from

116
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:17.360
<v Speaker 3>an artist from San Francisco.

117
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:19.839
<v Speaker 2>Tell us about nine Man, then if that's the one

118
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:23.360
<v Speaker 2>that's local, we're always interested. Came out of Newton, Massachusetts.

119
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:25.920
<v Speaker 2>Can you give us a quick synopsis?

120
00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:28.800
<v Speaker 3>Yes, this one is actually probably one of the older ones,

121
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:31.360
<v Speaker 3>but it's actually probably one of my favorites. It talks

122
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:36.519
<v Speaker 3>about a not a little known uh sport called nine Man,

123
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:39.399
<v Speaker 3>and for those people who play volleyball might look a

124
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:41.120
<v Speaker 3>little bit familiar to them, but the fact is that

125
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:44.439
<v Speaker 3>it's is born out of for the most part, North

126
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:48.360
<v Speaker 3>American chinatowns. There's actually nine players on the court. Looks

127
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:51.879
<v Speaker 3>kind of like volleyball, but has some crazy moves. First, La,

128
00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:55.759
<v Speaker 3>you know, recognize that she was watching you know, friends

129
00:06:55.800 --> 00:06:59.600
<v Speaker 3>and her brother play and how sort of like aggressive

130
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:02.360
<v Speaker 3>and mass in that these guys looked and seeing that

131
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:05.600
<v Speaker 3>media didn't really portray them equally on you know, what

132
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:09.040
<v Speaker 3>she was seeing on television. She'd been working for ESPN,

133
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:11.800
<v Speaker 3>I think at that point wanted to make and let

134
00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:16.639
<v Speaker 3>people see what the side of Chinatown look like China.

135
00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:21.920
<v Speaker 3>This uh captures one particular tournament that is a tournament

136
00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:26.040
<v Speaker 3>that happens every Labor Day weekend where teams from across

137
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:29.480
<v Speaker 3>North America come together to compete. And this one particular

138
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:33.079
<v Speaker 3>year that they covered actually was shot predominantly a mess

139
00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:35.519
<v Speaker 3>in Boston's Chinatown and.

140
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:39.720
<v Speaker 2>So and so the tournament was in Boston, and so

141
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:44.040
<v Speaker 2>people will be able to recognize the surroundings and some

142
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.560
<v Speaker 2>of the backdrop of the film. So okay, that's.

143
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:48.839
<v Speaker 3>One that's somebody that they know.

144
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:53.399
<v Speaker 2>Yep, oh, absolutely, that's it, because there's that there's that connection. Okay, Well,

145
00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:56.759
<v Speaker 2>so then the real question is how do people find

146
00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:59.920
<v Speaker 2>there must be a website. Is it simply arts and

147
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:03.480
<v Speaker 2>Emerson dot org slash events?

148
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:05.600
<v Speaker 3>I believe that would be a bit even if you

149
00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:08.839
<v Speaker 3>just only got to the Arts Emmerson dot org. There's like,

150
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:11.920
<v Speaker 3>you know, four kind of pictures that rotate, and one

151
00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:13.800
<v Speaker 3>of them is like the film program that people can

197
00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:43.679
<v Speaker 2>So you have all sorts of information about what folks

198
00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:46.600
<v Speaker 2>can do on Valentine's Day. It is a day during

199
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.519
<v Speaker 2>the year when couples, whether they've been married for fifty

200
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:53.919
<v Speaker 2>years or dating for five weeks or maybe five days,

201
00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.919
<v Speaker 2>try to maybe have a special evening out. This year,

202
00:10:59.039 --> 00:11:02.080
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's Day is an Friday, so it kind of works perfectly,

203
00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:06.559
<v Speaker 2>I guess. And you already have presented us with all

204
00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:09.879
<v Speaker 2>sorts of all sorts of dining options. How do you

205
00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:11.639
<v Speaker 2>develop this? Do you have to go around to all

206
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:15.600
<v Speaker 2>these restaurants and sample the whares and so so tell

207
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:19.480
<v Speaker 2>us what's good and maybe what's what's the best? Yeah?

208
00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:22.360
<v Speaker 4>Well, all the all the restaurants that I'm going to

209
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:25.000
<v Speaker 4>talk about I have eaten out before, so they are

210
00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:27.440
<v Speaker 4>all great. They're all unique in different ways. And just

211
00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:30.039
<v Speaker 4>with my time at IUC Boston and working with so

212
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:33.559
<v Speaker 4>many different kinds of clients from you know, fashion, entertainment,

213
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:36.480
<v Speaker 4>health and wellness, so many culinary I've been looking enough

214
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:38.559
<v Speaker 4>to become, you know, a little bit of an expert

215
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:40.600
<v Speaker 4>when it comes to like what to do, where to go,

216
00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:42.120
<v Speaker 4>and definitely where to eat around.

217
00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:44.399
<v Speaker 2>How did you get a job like that? I mean,

218
00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:46.039
<v Speaker 2>you didn't go to college. I don't know where you

219
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:47.879
<v Speaker 2>went to school, but you didn't get a college in

220
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:53.519
<v Speaker 2>like a master's in dining out. That must be behind

221
00:11:53.639 --> 00:11:57.000
<v Speaker 2>how you ended up in this position that a lot

222
00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:58.360
<v Speaker 2>of people would be envy yourself.

223
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:02.279
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, No, I'm definitely lucky. Definitely something that some

224
00:12:02.320 --> 00:12:04.240
<v Speaker 4>friends and family are jealous of. But no, I actually

225
00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:07.480
<v Speaker 4>I did get a degree in PR and marketing, and

226
00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:10.799
<v Speaker 4>then I actually worked all through college at a restaurant

227
00:12:10.799 --> 00:12:13.480
<v Speaker 4>where I served and bartended. So I was lucky enough

228
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:16.919
<v Speaker 4>to kind of find this career path where I could

229
00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:20.000
<v Speaker 4>kind of marry my schooling in PR and marketing also

230
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:23.639
<v Speaker 4>then with you know, my background in restaurants and working

231
00:12:23.639 --> 00:12:27.159
<v Speaker 4>with people on the culinary side, so a marriage.

232
00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:30.799
<v Speaker 2>I love your enthusiasm that's very important. So let's let's

233
00:12:30.799 --> 00:12:34.080
<v Speaker 2>talk about since we're in Boston here, we'll start off

234
00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:38.200
<v Speaker 2>with You've got three great locations you're suggesting in Boston

235
00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:40.759
<v Speaker 2>South End, and so why don't you hit us with

236
00:12:40.799 --> 00:12:44.240
<v Speaker 2>these and emphasize the difference between each of them. We

237
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:47.120
<v Speaker 2>can't spend a lot of time because there's a whole

238
00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:48.919
<v Speaker 2>bunch you have here. We want to we want to

239
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:52.759
<v Speaker 2>sort of hit it quickly. You got the Beehive, Spybar,

240
00:12:53.000 --> 00:12:56.360
<v Speaker 2>and Cosmica. I've never heard of any of those three,

241
00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:59.559
<v Speaker 2>so I'm all ears really.

242
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:01.600
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Yes, so I'll start with the Beehive. So the

243
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.679
<v Speaker 4>Beehive is really a Boston stable, So I'm surprised Dan

244
00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:06.399
<v Speaker 4>you haven't. You haven't checked it out before. You definitely

245
00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:09.399
<v Speaker 4>got to go. But yeah, So they are known for

246
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:13.759
<v Speaker 4>live music of romantic date night. They have really creative

247
00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:18.320
<v Speaker 4>flare when it comes to their menu, and definitely a

248
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:19.879
<v Speaker 4>place that you want to check out for Valentine's Day.

249
00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:23.320
<v Speaker 4>They're doing multiple days of Valentine's Day specials. Actually all

250
00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:26.159
<v Speaker 4>three of these venues are which is great. Spy Bar

251
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:28.720
<v Speaker 4>also jumping in there if you're looking for something a

252
00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:31.639
<v Speaker 4>little bit newer, Spy Bar is great. It is a

253
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:35.120
<v Speaker 4>listening lounge and cocktail bar, one of the newer, newer

254
00:13:35.159 --> 00:13:39.799
<v Speaker 4>ones in Boston, and they have amazing cocktails almost too

255
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:42.679
<v Speaker 4>beautiful to drink, but they also have or nerves and they.

256
00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:45.960
<v Speaker 2>Are doing I could how beautiful the cocktail is.

257
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:51.679
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Yeah, So they're also offering multiple specials throughout the

258
00:13:51.720 --> 00:13:54.559
<v Speaker 4>week two so like twelfth to the fifteenth, a lot

259
00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:57.360
<v Speaker 4>of we're seeing a lot of venues do uh. And

260
00:13:57.399 --> 00:14:00.840
<v Speaker 4>then left but not least in the South end is Cosmica.

261
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:04.639
<v Speaker 4>So if you're looking for a Mexican cuisine, they just

262
00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:07.840
<v Speaker 4>got a new chef in super authentic, super flavorful dishes

263
00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:12.080
<v Speaker 4>and on Valentine's Day you can expect mariachi music, Margarita's

264
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:14.559
<v Speaker 4>and all that. So it definitely would be a good time.

265
00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Wow. So now all these three restaurants are they all

266
00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:22.559
<v Speaker 2>reasonably priced? Because I don't want my listeners going out

267
00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:26.679
<v Speaker 2>and making reservations at something that's gonna, you know, set

268
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:29.399
<v Speaker 2>them back up with a month's paycheck. These are these

269
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:32.440
<v Speaker 2>are all relatively reasonably priced locations.

270
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:34.559
<v Speaker 1>I hope they are. They are?

271
00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:37.120
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I would definitely say so, okay, okay.

272
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:42.639
<v Speaker 2>So then we're we we slide over to Cambridge. A

273
00:14:42.720 --> 00:14:44.919
<v Speaker 2>couple of spots in Cambridge you suggest, go ahead?

274
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:49.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, so both award winning restaurants. Actually I'm going

275
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:52.639
<v Speaker 4>to start with Urban Harris and Cambridge, and that is

276
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.080
<v Speaker 4>the restaurant of chef Aaron Miller, who was actually she

277
00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:58.039
<v Speaker 4>was just announced a James Beard finalist for twenty twenty five,

278
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:00.480
<v Speaker 4>which is a huge deal and we're super happy for

279
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:01.879
<v Speaker 4>her and what they're all.

280
00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:04.559
<v Speaker 2>It's not like getting selected to the Baseball Hall of Fame.

281
00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:08.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm unfamiliar with that award, so it's it's.

282
00:15:08.279 --> 00:15:10.600
<v Speaker 4>Pretty much like that. Yeah, No, it's it's pretty much

283
00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:15.440
<v Speaker 4>like that. So yeah, they select finalists from every region nationally, and.

284
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:18.399
<v Speaker 2>So I was all excited about the Baseball Hall of

285
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:21.480
<v Speaker 2>Fame each year old getting in the Hall of Fame.

286
00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:26.559
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, and Sabbathia and I'm not sure if we

287
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:29.399
<v Speaker 2>probably wouldn't have your garment with the chef there. But

288
00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:31.919
<v Speaker 2>what's the other one. The other one is Muna.

289
00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:36.720
<v Speaker 4>Muna, Yeah, so that is more Eastern Mediterranean style h

290
00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:39.679

291
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:41.960
<v Speaker 4>nine dollars for Valentine's Day and if you haven't checked

00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:43.559
<v Speaker 4>out Muona. It really is great.

294
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:49.480
<v Speaker 2>to make sure my audience knows what we're getting them into.

295

<v Speaker 2>a big shout out to Burton's Grill and Bar of

300
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:01.559
<v Speaker 2>Eating at Burton's. Familiar with Burtons because it's out in

301
00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:05.360
<v Speaker 2>the suburbs. Seven locations. I think most people know about that.

302
00:16:05.960 --> 00:16:10.720
<v Speaker 2>You've got a couple here just north of Boston and

303
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:16.000
<v Speaker 2>none of these, I mean Salt and Stone, I don't know, uh, Sogno,

304
00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:22.039
<v Speaker 2>Settler and Bernadette. Yeah, I'm not a north of Boston guys,

305
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:24.519
<v Speaker 2>so I'm totally in the dark. Hair give us some

306
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:26.480
<v Speaker 2>recommendation amongst those four.

307
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:28.159
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, yeah, yeah.

308
00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:31.600
<v Speaker 4>So Salt and Stone is in Summerville, super charming, cozy,

309
00:16:31.720 --> 00:16:37.240
<v Speaker 4>modern American food. They actually just launched their ski Chalet experience.

310
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:39.759
<v Speaker 4>So we're looking for some cozy dining, a little something different,

311
00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:45.600
<v Speaker 4>really cool there. Sonia is just north of Boston as well.

312
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:48.799
<v Speaker 4>It's on the Wooburn Winchester line, and it actually is

313
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:49.200
<v Speaker 4>like one.

314
00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:52.519
<v Speaker 2>Of my we're getting out into the burbs. Now, Okay,

315
00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:55.000
<v Speaker 2>that's yeah, a little bit Leinchester. I'm hearing it.

316
00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:57.879
<v Speaker 4>Go ahead, yeah, but no, trust me when I say,

317
00:16:57.919 --> 00:16:59.679
<v Speaker 4>I mean, if you're in the area, I'm sure you've

318
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:01.720
<v Speaker 4>heard of it. If you're not, it is absolutely worth

319
00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:03.960
<v Speaker 4>a drive. It's really one of my favorite Italian restaurants.

320
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:05.640
<v Speaker 4>And I live in the North End, so I guess

321
00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:11.400
<v Speaker 4>that's saying something. And yeah, they are doing some really

322
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:14.000
<v Speaker 4>great Valentine's Day specials, but of course they'll always have

323
00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:17.640
<v Speaker 4>you know, the classics patas pizzas that everyone's looking for.

324
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:20.720
<v Speaker 2>That's my sort of place. Okay, Settler, we got Settler

325
00:17:20.759 --> 00:17:24.000
<v Speaker 2>in Salem, perfect, Salem's been around a long time. Tough

326
00:17:24.039 --> 00:17:27.480
<v Speaker 2>to park in Salem, by the way, Yeah, aware of that,

327
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.640
<v Speaker 2>and it's easy to get to. But that's okay. You

328
00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:34.240
<v Speaker 2>like Settler, I assume, Yeah.

329
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:36.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, I was just gonna say easy on the

330
00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:38.559
<v Speaker 4>train for Salem, I will say, coming out of the city.

331
00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:42.400
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, Settler and Bernadette are actually both owned by

332
00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:45.559
<v Speaker 4>SHANEA and Aaron Chambers, which are like an amazing team.

333
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:49.000
<v Speaker 4>Aaron is the chef and they've had Settler and then

334
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:52.319
<v Speaker 4>they're just opened Bernadette recently, and yeah, both of them

335
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:55.119
<v Speaker 4>are really amazing. They have a pre fee menus as

336
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:57.640
<v Speaker 4>well for Valentine's Day, but even if you can't get in,

337
00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:00.480
<v Speaker 4>then definitely recommend if you're in Salem them out.

338
00:18:00.759 --> 00:18:04.759
<v Speaker 2>Okay, then we got Barrel More, not Paramore. We're talking about.

00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah of course.

341
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:13.400
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, so Barromore and Midnight Morning. Barmore's a Newton

342
00:18:13.880 --> 00:18:15.920
<v Speaker 4>So if you're looking for something a little more casual

343
00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:18.039
<v Speaker 4>or even if you're not celebrating Valentine's Day, you know

<v Speaker 4>traditionally with like a date night, here's going out with friends.

345
00:18:20.839 --> 00:18:23.559
<v Speaker 4>Barmore is great. And then yeah, Midnight Morning is in

346
00:18:23.720 --> 00:18:27.119
<v Speaker 4>Roslindale and they are great for everything from your coffee

354
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:47.680
<v Speaker 2>is a really great rundown. You're very good at getting

355
00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:50.240
<v Speaker 2>a lot in in a relatively brief period of time.

356
00:18:50.880 --> 00:18:54.440
<v Speaker 2>They on night side on demand during the day, they

<v Speaker 2>you a very happy Valentine's Day. Mattie McCarthy, we might

361
00:19:05.880 --> 00:19:08.880
<v Speaker 2>be related. My mother's last name was McCarthy, so.

362
00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:10.359
<v Speaker 5>You never know that way.

363
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:15.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, absolutely true, Absolutely true. Great great name. Thanks Maddy,

364
00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:16.079
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it.

365
00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Very much, Thanks so much.

366
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:17.960
<v Speaker 3>Dan.

367
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:21.960
<v Speaker 2>All Right, we get back. We're going to talk about

368
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:25.440
<v Speaker 2>a tougher issue. We're going to talk about you get

369
00:19:25.480 --> 00:19:27.960
<v Speaker 2>a good college degree and then you get out and

370
00:19:28.039 --> 00:19:30.759
<v Speaker 2>having a tough time finding a job. That's happening to

371
00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:32.799
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people. We're not talking about just the

372
00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:38.519
<v Speaker 2>people with, you know, ancient archaeology degrees. I guess there's

373
00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:40.960
<v Speaker 2>a lot of folks out there in the business world

374
00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:44.000
<v Speaker 2>looking for jobs and try and not having as much

375
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:45.640
<v Speaker 2>success as they would like to think. We're going to

376
00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:47.799
<v Speaker 2>talk with an expert try to get your back on

377
00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:50.039
<v Speaker 2>track right after the news at the bottom of the era.

378
00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:52.000
<v Speaker 2>My name is Dan Ray. This is Nightside. We will

379
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:53.880
<v Speaker 2>be right back after the news.

380
00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:59.880
<v Speaker 4>You're on Night Side with Dan Ray on Boston's news radio.

381
00:20:01.039 --> 00:20:06.559
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's let's keep rolling here. You know, the

382
00:20:06.319 --> 00:20:12.240
<v Speaker 2>the job market, it seems really always tough. Whenever I

383
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:14.319
<v Speaker 2>talk to young people and they're they're out trying to

384
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:17.440
<v Speaker 2>get their first job, it's a tough situation. And some

385
00:20:17.519 --> 00:20:21.519
<v Speaker 2>of them have degrees in hand, but jobs in many

386
00:20:21.559 --> 00:20:23.680
<v Speaker 2>cases right now seem to be out of reach. We're

387
00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:27.039
<v Speaker 2>going to talk with Brenda Siri. He's a workplace expert,

388
00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:30.640
<v Speaker 2>president and CEO of Corporate Connections. But I believe you

389
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:32.759
<v Speaker 2>also teach in college as well. Tell us about it.

390
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:38.240
<v Speaker 5>Professor, I am. I'm actually a professor at the University

391
00:20:38.279 --> 00:20:42.000
<v Speaker 5>of Texas here in Dallas. International.

392
00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh, the university, going to say, the University of Texas,

393
00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:48.559
<v Speaker 2>University of Dallas. That's a great school.

394
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:52.319
<v Speaker 5>I had a No, it's actually the University of Texas,

395
00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:56.279
<v Speaker 5>but it's the Dallas campus, so I can still.

396
00:20:56.039 --> 00:20:58.079
<v Speaker 2>I then can still say, hookum ones.

397
00:20:57.799 --> 00:20:59.759
<v Speaker 1>Okay, you can, you can.

398
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:06.319
<v Speaker 5>And I have the pleasure of teaching international master's degree

399
00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:09.279
<v Speaker 5>students who have come to the US to get their

400
00:21:09.359 --> 00:21:15.000
<v Speaker 5>master's degree in STEM degrees So I deal with students

401
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:18.799
<v Speaker 5>all the time who are concerned about getting internships or

402
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:22.559
<v Speaker 5>permanent positions. But my students have a caveat in that

403
00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:26.519
<v Speaker 5>they are international students, so they need to go to

404
00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:29.839
<v Speaker 5>work for a company who will sponsor them. So they

405
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:33.119
<v Speaker 5>have a little more difficult road ahead of them than

406
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:37.200
<v Speaker 5>just you know, domestic students who are looking for jobs

407
00:21:37.240 --> 00:21:39.400
<v Speaker 5>coming out of undergraduate and graduate degrees.

408
00:21:39.519 --> 00:21:44.119
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so is our focused and I always sometimes my producer,

409
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:46.119
<v Speaker 2>I want to make sure I understand is our focus

410
00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:49.519
<v Speaker 2>tonight to talk on international students the difficulties that they

411
00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:51.519
<v Speaker 2>have jobs us?

412
00:21:51.680 --> 00:21:56.200
<v Speaker 5>No, Yeah, it's on us students. Actually, you know, there

413
00:21:56.240 --> 00:21:59.279
<v Speaker 5>was a recent article that came out on CNN talking

414
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:04.079
<v Speaker 5>about the fact that companies have a fear of hiring

415
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:07.759
<v Speaker 5>undergraduate students who are coming out with their college degree.

416
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:10.640
<v Speaker 5>So a lot of the gen zs that are coming

417
00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:14.359
<v Speaker 5>out with their first, you know, four year degree, why.

418
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:18.119
<v Speaker 2>Is that why they have a field? I've been at situations.

419
00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:21.559
<v Speaker 2>We sometimes have done this radio show on the road.

420
00:22:21.640 --> 00:22:24.160
<v Speaker 2>We go out and we do nightside on the road,

421
00:22:24.200 --> 00:22:27.000
<v Speaker 2>and I oftentimes will be approached by students and they'll

422
00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:28.839
<v Speaker 2>tell me I have it a tough time, and I remember

423
00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:31.480
<v Speaker 2>talking to one woman in New Hampshire several years ago

424
00:22:31.519 --> 00:22:35.400
<v Speaker 2>and so, what's your what's your major archaeology? It was like, well, wow,

425
00:22:35.799 --> 00:22:38.440
<v Speaker 2>archaeology is you know, it's not a stem. I mean

426
00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:43.880
<v Speaker 2>there's probably stem elements in archaeology, but there's not a

427
00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:48.039
<v Speaker 2>lot of jobs in it. What why a gen z

428
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:51.640
<v Speaker 2>is being looked at as scance here by potential employers?

429
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:53.480
<v Speaker 2>I think I know the answer, but I'd love to

430
00:22:53.480 --> 00:22:54.119
<v Speaker 2>hear it from you.

431
00:22:55.319 --> 00:22:59.119
<v Speaker 5>Sure, you know, I think there's a variety of reasons. Right,

432
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:04.079
<v Speaker 5>This Particularler survey that was done, the feedback that they

433
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:08.759
<v Speaker 5>got was that gen Zer's lack motivation. They have a

434
00:23:08.920 --> 00:23:13.680
<v Speaker 5>very difficult time communicating. They struggle getting feedback if they

435
00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:19.599
<v Speaker 5>aren't performing to their expected potential. And really part of

436
00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:22.799
<v Speaker 5>it revolves around a lack of work experience, right, And

437
00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:27.799
<v Speaker 5>in what I teach the master's degree, students typically have

438
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:30.559
<v Speaker 5>gotten their four year degree, they've gone out and worked,

439
00:23:31.079 --> 00:23:33.000
<v Speaker 5>and then they're going back to school to get that

440
00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:36.640
<v Speaker 5>master's degree. Where a lot of your students who are

441
00:23:36.680 --> 00:23:40.880
<v Speaker 5>getting undergraduate degrees their work experience if they didn't go

442
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:44.440
<v Speaker 5>out and fight for internships, which is a fight believe me,

443
00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:49.799
<v Speaker 5>during getting their bachelor's degree, maybe their work experiences in

444
00:23:50.039 --> 00:23:53.799
<v Speaker 5>retail or restaurant work and they're getting a degree in engineering,

445
00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:56.799
<v Speaker 5>or they getting a technology degree, and they don't have

446
00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:01.799
<v Speaker 5>applicable work experience, which is really important to employers when

447
00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:07.200
<v Speaker 5>they're looking at hiring very new, you know, potential employees.

448
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:10.079
<v Speaker 2>You know. One of the things I think, and I'm

449
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:11.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of old school, I'm not going to tell you

450
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:14.039
<v Speaker 2>how all day, but I've been in television for thirty

451
00:24:14.039 --> 00:24:16.599
<v Speaker 2>one years and now we've been in radio on air,

452
00:24:16.759 --> 00:24:20.359
<v Speaker 2>in both TV and radio. And one of the worst

453
00:24:20.440 --> 00:24:23.720
<v Speaker 2>jobs I ever had while I was in college was

454
00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:29.240
<v Speaker 2>one summer I cleaned toilets. Oh goodness, basically a janitor, okay,

455
00:24:29.599 --> 00:24:34.559
<v Speaker 2>And I learned a lot from that job. I learned humility,

456
00:24:36.920 --> 00:24:40.519
<v Speaker 2>that there's a lot of people out there who don't

457
00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:43.440
<v Speaker 2>have the fortune of having It was a good experience,

458
00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:46.480
<v Speaker 2>I guess in retrospect, sure, I kind of felt like

459
00:24:46.519 --> 00:24:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Bill Murray and Caddyshack as I Caddyshack even hadn't been

460
00:24:50.880 --> 00:24:54.240
<v Speaker 2>made as a movie at that void. But do we

461
00:24:54.880 --> 00:24:59.240
<v Speaker 2>undervalue those types of work experiences for students? Not everybody

462
00:24:59.240 --> 00:25:02.759
<v Speaker 2>can get an interest it isn't a work experience. Any

463
00:25:02.799 --> 00:25:05.119
<v Speaker 2>work experience potentially beneficial.

464
00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:11.079
<v Speaker 5>It can be if if it is displayed properly on

465
00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:15.319
<v Speaker 5>their resume, right, So if they put their soft skills

466
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:22.079
<v Speaker 5>as well as their hard skills right, so thought skills, accountability, communication, collaboration,

467
00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:27.759
<v Speaker 5>able to handle pressure, able to multitask. If they can

468
00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:31.279
<v Speaker 5>show that they have those soft skills, even if they

469
00:25:31.400 --> 00:25:35.119
<v Speaker 5>learned them working in retail, working in a restaurant, working

470
00:25:35.160 --> 00:25:38.599
<v Speaker 5>as a janitor, you know, that says a lot to

471
00:25:39.119 --> 00:25:40.079
<v Speaker 5>hiring manager.

472
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:47.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think that's vastly you know, underestimated. And I

473
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:50.920
<v Speaker 2>mean back when when I was in school, you went

474
00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:53.799
<v Speaker 2>to school full time and then in the summer you

475
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:57.599
<v Speaker 2>scrambled and you tried to make a few bucks. I

476
00:25:57.640 --> 00:26:01.200
<v Speaker 2>don't know if that model still exists anymore, or if

477
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:07.000
<v Speaker 2>does that exist. Do kids, you know, be in school

478
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:09.599
<v Speaker 2>from September to May and then they try to, you know,

479
00:26:09.799 --> 00:26:13.480
<v Speaker 2>get a job, whether it's you know, I don't know,

480
00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:16.279
<v Speaker 2>working as a lifeguard. I'm trying to think of the

481
00:26:16.319 --> 00:26:19.880
<v Speaker 2>traditional jobs that we're concerning, the primo jobs when I

482
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:21.759
<v Speaker 2>was in that area.

483
00:26:23.279 --> 00:26:26.920
<v Speaker 5>You know, we live in a very competitive job market,

484
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:33.559
<v Speaker 5>and you know, with with so much technology flying at us, right.

485
00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:35.920
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I have students who are getting degrees and

486
00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:40.720
<v Speaker 5>generitive AI. So you know, it really is a different

487
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:43.799
<v Speaker 5>world today than it was twenty thirty years ago. And

488
00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:48.200
<v Speaker 5>so really what students are scrambling for today are those

489
00:26:48.359 --> 00:26:52.039
<v Speaker 5>jobs that are going to really give them those those

490
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:55.519
<v Speaker 5>skills that are going to help them be more attractive

491
00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:00.599
<v Speaker 5>to employers when they do graduate. However, I will say

492
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:05.960
<v Speaker 5>to those employers, I think it's important to uh, you know,

493
00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:11.200
<v Speaker 5>focus on behavioral interview questions that could help them get

494
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:15.960
<v Speaker 5>to the bottom of Okay, I had Candidate A who

495
00:27:16.319 --> 00:27:18.519
<v Speaker 5>only worked at a restaurant this summer, and I have

496
00:27:18.640 --> 00:27:23.000
<v Speaker 5>candidate B who worked at Goldman Sacks. But did the

497
00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:27.000
<v Speaker 5>one that worked at the restaurant learn the value of

498
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:31.279
<v Speaker 5>the qualifications that I'm looking for in a candidate. And

499
00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:34.519
<v Speaker 5>some of those questions can be, you know, something as

500
00:27:34.559 --> 00:27:38.319
<v Speaker 5>simple as you know, what type of constructive criticism have

501
00:27:38.440 --> 00:27:40.680
<v Speaker 5>you received and how did you deal with it? Or

502
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:44.680
<v Speaker 5>are you used to juggling multiple assignments and how did

503
00:27:44.680 --> 00:27:47.839
<v Speaker 5>you manage a workload? You know you have to juggle man,

504
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:49.839
<v Speaker 5>you know a lot of assignments when you work in

505
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:53.680
<v Speaker 5>a restaurant and manage a workload. And while it may

506
00:27:53.680 --> 00:27:57.480
<v Speaker 5>not sound as attractive as a Goldman sax, maybe they

507
00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:01.720
<v Speaker 5>learned something intuitively that somebody else didn't.

508
00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:04.519
<v Speaker 2>I think that's good advice. So do you work both

509
00:28:04.559 --> 00:28:08.799
<v Speaker 2>with students. And again, your group is called Corporate Connections LLC,

510
00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:15.359
<v Speaker 2>who can avail themselves of your services employers or aspiring employees.

511
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:21.480
<v Speaker 5>So really I am essentially what is known as a headhunter,

512
00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:24.559
<v Speaker 5>so I get hired by companies to find the best

513
00:28:24.559 --> 00:28:29.119
<v Speaker 5>talent for their open position. However, I am also a

514
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:32.440
<v Speaker 5>very caring person and because of my role as a professor,

515
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:35.599
<v Speaker 5>I certainly work hard, you know, with students to try

516
00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:39.440
<v Speaker 5>and teach them how to go about getting a job,

517
00:28:39.480 --> 00:28:42.559
<v Speaker 5>whether that's interviewing skills or the right things to put

518
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:45.799
<v Speaker 5>on your resume, because it really can make a difference.

519
00:28:46.559 --> 00:28:49.119
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely. Well, look very nice to make your equaintance. If

520
00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:50.799
<v Speaker 2>folks want to get in touch with you, there must

521
00:28:50.799 --> 00:28:51.680
<v Speaker 2>be a website.

522
00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:57.720
<v Speaker 5>Yes, my website is Corporate Connections LLC dot com. I'm

523
00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:02.400
<v Speaker 5>also on LinkedIn as Brenda sr and Corporate Connections LLC

524
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:04.559
<v Speaker 5>has a business page on LinkedIn as well.

525
00:29:05.039 --> 00:29:07.640
<v Speaker 2>All right, well, pleasure to meet you. Now I've finally

526
00:29:07.680 --> 00:29:10.599
<v Speaker 2>met the person who you say, talk to Siri and

527
00:29:10.640 --> 00:29:12.960
<v Speaker 2>tell us what's going on. That's not you, right on

528
00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:15.160
<v Speaker 2>the holy kidd, not me, all right.

529
00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:18.559
<v Speaker 5>Fortunately I wasn't smart enough to copyright my last name.

530
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:22.920
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, now that is that's a woman who certainly

531
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:26.759
<v Speaker 2>knows how to multitask. I don't know how she does it. Thanks, thanks, Brendany.

532
00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:29.559
<v Speaker 2>I do appreciate it, professor, Thanks very much. We get

533
00:29:29.599 --> 00:29:31.640
<v Speaker 2>back in to talk a little Super Bowl sports with

534
00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:34.839
<v Speaker 2>Chris Price. He's been here before, Boston Globe sports reporter,

535
00:29:35.200 --> 00:29:36.440
<v Speaker 2>and we'll figure out who's.

536
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:36.559
<v Speaker 1>Going to win.

537
00:29:36.599 --> 00:29:39.960
<v Speaker 2>The Chiefs of the Eagles in the Super Bowl two weeks,

538
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:42.359
<v Speaker 2>well a week from this Sunday, So we're talking about

539
00:29:42.400 --> 00:29:45.079
<v Speaker 2>what eleven days. It's cut right around the corner, coming

540
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:48.440
<v Speaker 2>back on night Side. Now, back to Dan Ray live

541
00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:54.839
<v Speaker 2>from the Window World night Side Studios on WBZ News Radio. Well,

542
00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:57.640
<v Speaker 2>the Super Bowl is set, and of course with us

543
00:29:57.720 --> 00:30:01.240
<v Speaker 2>is Chris Price from the Boston Globe. Chris, the only

544
00:30:01.359 --> 00:30:04.599
<v Speaker 2>question I have is the Patriots still in it?

545
00:30:08.119 --> 00:30:11.720
<v Speaker 1>I know what, Dan, we could actually trace that back

546
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:14.640
<v Speaker 1>to I think maybe it was like mid November or

547
00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:17.319
<v Speaker 1>so when they were officially eliminated from playoffs contention. But

548
00:30:17.400 --> 00:30:20.039
<v Speaker 1>the good news, if you want some good news, if.

549
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:22.759
<v Speaker 2>You're a Patriots fan, the fourth round, you have choice.

550
00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:26.400
<v Speaker 1>They have the fourth overall pick, they have roughly one

551
00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:29.759
<v Speaker 1>hundred million dollars under the salary cap, and they have

552
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:33.319
<v Speaker 1>four pick in the top eighty or so this year.

553
00:30:33.480 --> 00:30:35.880
<v Speaker 1>So you know, this is a good year for team

554
00:30:35.880 --> 00:30:37.759
<v Speaker 1>building if you're the pick. Put it that way.

555
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:43.000
<v Speaker 2>So you're telling me there's still a chance. No, we

556
00:30:43.119 --> 00:30:46.680
<v Speaker 2>know who the super Bowl. Look, I felt so sorry

557
00:30:46.759 --> 00:30:49.160
<v Speaker 2>for Jim Kelly the other day. Oh my god, he

558
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:51.759
<v Speaker 2>was almost crying. Did you see that postgame news conference?

559
00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I did I did that the Bills. I'll say this, Dan,

560
00:30:56.599 --> 00:30:58.559
<v Speaker 1>every time I've been up to Buffalo, you've probably been

561
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:00.839
<v Speaker 1>up there as well. That they love the builds so much.

562
00:31:01.960 --> 00:31:05.079
<v Speaker 1>It's such a great fan base. They've they've suffered so

563
00:31:05.279 --> 00:31:08.200
<v Speaker 1>much over the years, and for them to keep kind

564
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:10.680
<v Speaker 1>of banging their head on the ceiling there against the Chiefs,

565
00:31:10.839 --> 00:31:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it looks like they're just you know, it's there's something

566
00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:16.440
<v Speaker 1>to be said for timing when it comes to winning

567
00:31:16.480 --> 00:31:19.640
<v Speaker 1>a championship. That if you are if you have a

568
00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:22.680
<v Speaker 1>great team that's standing in your way, you can only

569
00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:25.160
<v Speaker 1>do so much. I just I'd love the Bills. I

570
00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:28.000
<v Speaker 1>love I love you know, the way that Josh Allen

571
00:31:28.079 --> 00:31:31.599
<v Speaker 1>performed this year. It just the Chiefs remind me so

572
00:31:31.720 --> 00:31:33.720
<v Speaker 1>much of those old Patriots teams. They just find a

573
00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:35.000
<v Speaker 1>way to get it done. The biggest moments.

574
00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:37.480
<v Speaker 2>Kim Kaid still could have caught that pass at.

575
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:39.319
<v Speaker 1>The end, Yeah, he could have.

576
00:31:39.839 --> 00:31:42.319
<v Speaker 2>Really know, there's a lot of you know, a lot

577
00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:44.319
<v Speaker 2>of you know luck. It was a little bit, it

578
00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:45.920
<v Speaker 2>was a little bit behind him and all that, But

579
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:47.599
<v Speaker 2>if you pulled that in then it would have been

580
00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:49.960
<v Speaker 2>maybe a different I think they have to go find

581
00:31:50.440 --> 00:31:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Mark Levy Levy and bring him back as coach. I

582
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:59.079
<v Speaker 2>forget that these guys lost four super Bowls, yeah in

583
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:01.240
<v Speaker 2>the early nineties. I mean they would have.

584
00:32:02.920 --> 00:32:04.599
<v Speaker 1>Not just not just for Super Bowls. I mean there

585
00:32:04.599 --> 00:32:06.559
<v Speaker 1>are other teams that have lost, but like the Broncos

586
00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:11.240
<v Speaker 1>have lost, for the Vikings have lost war Row just

587
00:32:11.400 --> 00:32:13.480
<v Speaker 1>it's it's next level kind of stuff, it really is.

588
00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:16.359
<v Speaker 2>And now they've lost Kansas City really three in a row.

589
00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:18.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I mean when you think about it, I

590
00:32:18.079 --> 00:32:20.079
<v Speaker 2>mean they had they had a chance this year that

591
00:32:20.119 --> 00:32:23.960
<v Speaker 2>they lost last year in Buffalo. I guess this is

592
00:32:24.039 --> 00:32:26.559
<v Speaker 2>only the second time they've lost directly to Kansas City.

593
00:32:26.599 --> 00:32:29.079
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, so so now we look at the Eagles.

594
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:31.440
<v Speaker 2>I kind of like the Eagles. What's your thought on

595
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:32.039
<v Speaker 2>this game?

596
00:32:32.880 --> 00:32:35.279
<v Speaker 1>I I do. I I love the Eagles, And you know,

597
00:32:35.359 --> 00:32:38.039
<v Speaker 1>you want some irony here that New England fans are

598
00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:40.559
<v Speaker 1>rooting for the Philadelphia Eagles, as you know after what

599
00:32:40.599 --> 00:32:42.279
<v Speaker 1>happened a few years ago in the Super Bowl, that

600
00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:44.839
<v Speaker 1>the Eagles are the team that stands in the way

601
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:48.720
<v Speaker 1>of the Chiefs and pulling off a three piecher. But yeah,

602
00:32:48.920 --> 00:32:52.119
<v Speaker 1>I love the Eagles. They're a smart, tough, physical team.

603
00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Taekwon Barkley has had a dynamite year. You know, Jalen

604
00:32:56.559 --> 00:32:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Hurts is playing great. Their offensive line is a bunch

605
00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:02.799
<v Speaker 1>of maulers. If there's a team that can get it done.

606
00:33:03.039 --> 00:33:05.839
<v Speaker 1>The big secret here, really, Dan, when you come right

607
00:33:05.880 --> 00:33:08.079
<v Speaker 1>down to it, the best way to beat the Chiefs

608
00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:10.599
<v Speaker 1>is to keep Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelcey in that offense.

609
00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Also feel as long as possible. So if I'm the Eagles,

610
00:33:13.480 --> 00:33:15.480
<v Speaker 1>I want to just grind them down. I want to

611
00:33:15.480 --> 00:33:18.480
<v Speaker 1>put together some seven eight nine minute drives. I want

612
00:33:18.480 --> 00:33:20.359
<v Speaker 1>to control the game. I want to control the Temple,

613
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:22.440
<v Speaker 1>and I want to keep Patrick Mahomes on the sidelines

614
00:33:22.440 --> 00:33:23.200
<v Speaker 1>as long as I can.

615
00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:25.359
<v Speaker 2>You got you got the you got the running back

616
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:31.400
<v Speaker 2>that can do it. Many is unbelievable. I forgot that

617
00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:33.920
<v Speaker 2>he when he broke in with the Giants, Joe Judge

618
00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:37.359
<v Speaker 2>was there. IM. Joe's a great guy. I don't know

619
00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:38.200
<v Speaker 2>if you know Judge or.

620
00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:40.279
<v Speaker 1>Not, but Joe a little bit, yeah, a little bit.

621
00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:43.559
<v Speaker 2>Great guy and hasts a young and a young guy.

622
00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:44.839
<v Speaker 2>He's got to get another shot.

623
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:49.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, It's going to be interesting to see how

624
00:33:49.799 --> 00:33:53.000
<v Speaker 1>much baggage he's going to carry into whatever next job

625
00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:54.920
<v Speaker 1>that he might have. I was a little bit surprised,

626
00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:57.799
<v Speaker 1>honestly that Bill Belichick didn't take him down to North

627
00:33:57.839 --> 00:34:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Carolina with him. You know, he still may find his

628
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:03.559
<v Speaker 1>way down to to the ECC to be to be

629
00:34:03.559 --> 00:34:06.440
<v Speaker 1>an assistant coach under Bill. But but yeah, he's he's

630
00:34:06.440 --> 00:34:08.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna he's gonna get a job somewhere in the National

631
00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Football League sooner red later.

632
00:34:10.280 --> 00:34:12.599
<v Speaker 2>I yeah, I was kind of surprised that maybe Vrabel

633
00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:16.000
<v Speaker 2>wasn't going to bring him back to New England because

634
00:34:16.039 --> 00:34:21.599
<v Speaker 2>I think that, uh my understanding is that Belichick had

635
00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:25.440
<v Speaker 2>the job in Atlanta. It was a done deal and

636
00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:27.559
<v Speaker 2>that that he was going to get the band back

637
00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:33.239
<v Speaker 2>together in Atlanta. No serious and Blank went into the

638
00:34:33.239 --> 00:34:37.800
<v Speaker 2>hospital for some surgery, and at that point the GM

639
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.000
<v Speaker 2>decided to go in a different direction. You know that.

640
00:34:40.079 --> 00:34:43.639
<v Speaker 1>I think, yeah, they were in reverse on you there.

641
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:45.400
<v Speaker 1>They were in re reverse on you there. I will

642
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:47.320
<v Speaker 1>say this that the one thing when you look at Mike,

643
00:34:47.400 --> 00:34:51.199
<v Speaker 1>Rables and Ustaff here in New England, you can kind

644
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:54.320
<v Speaker 1>of draw most of them, not all of them quite yet,

645
00:34:54.719 --> 00:34:58.239
<v Speaker 1>but there was a previous working relationship there with all

646
00:34:58.280 --> 00:35:00.800
<v Speaker 1>of that, whether it's even as a you know, as

647
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:04.119
<v Speaker 1>a player and a coach. Between Josh McDaniels and him,

648
00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:06.679
<v Speaker 1>he's plucked a lot of guys that he used to

649
00:35:06.719 --> 00:35:08.760
<v Speaker 1>work with in Tennessee. And I don't think, off the

650
00:35:08.760 --> 00:35:10.119
<v Speaker 1>top of my head, I don't think he had a

651
00:35:10.119 --> 00:35:13.199
<v Speaker 1>previous relationship with Joe Judge, so maybe that kind of

652
00:35:13.239 --> 00:35:16.480
<v Speaker 1>disqualified him there. But yeah, I'd like, I don't want

653
00:35:16.480 --> 00:35:18.119
<v Speaker 1>to go off on another team gent here, but I

654
00:35:18.639 --> 00:35:23.159
<v Speaker 1>really like the staff that Rabel is assembling here in

655
00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:25.199
<v Speaker 1>New England. I think it's a bit of a one

656
00:35:25.199 --> 00:35:27.480
<v Speaker 1>to eighty from what we saw last year. Where there

657
00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:31.599
<v Speaker 1>were a lot of relatively younger coaches this year. Moving forward,

658
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:34.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of there's a lot of experience on

659
00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:36.000
<v Speaker 1>that coaching staff. It's going to be interesting how that

660
00:35:36.039 --> 00:35:37.599
<v Speaker 1>manifests itself over the course of the year.

661
00:35:37.920 --> 00:35:42.119
<v Speaker 2>Did Belichick's second son stay with the Patriots or I

662
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:44.159
<v Speaker 2>know the first guy went out to Washington and now

663
00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:46.280
<v Speaker 2>he's going to be with the dad down at UNC.

664
00:35:46.519 --> 00:35:47.480
<v Speaker 2>What about the second.

665
00:35:47.280 --> 00:35:51.199
<v Speaker 1>Guy who was Yet the other son is leaving as well,

666
00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:54.119
<v Speaker 1>it was revealed today. So there will be no more

667
00:35:54.159 --> 00:35:58.199
<v Speaker 1>Belichicks in Foxboro. We don't know yet, although I wouldn't

668
00:35:58.199 --> 00:35:59.840
<v Speaker 1>be surprised if he showed up in North Carolina.

669
00:36:00.519 --> 00:36:04.119
<v Speaker 2>That would not stun me, that is for sure. Okay,

670
00:36:04.159 --> 00:36:06.840
<v Speaker 2>so what's the spread on this game? I'm assuming the

671
00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:09.679
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs will come out as the favorite. The betting favorite

672
00:36:10.679 --> 00:36:11.159
<v Speaker 2>right now.

673
00:36:11.280 --> 00:36:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Philadelphia is a narrow The last time I checked, I'll

674
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:16.880
<v Speaker 1>say this this afternoon, the early line was Philadelphia, I

675
00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:20.280
<v Speaker 1>think by two or three. It was very It's very

676
00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:22.719
<v Speaker 1>very narrow. So I think part of it, though, Dan,

677
00:36:23.199 --> 00:36:25.840
<v Speaker 1>is that the Chiefs have played so many close games

678
00:36:25.840 --> 00:36:29.480
<v Speaker 1>this year. They played I think they played more one

679
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:32.280
<v Speaker 1>score games than anyone else in the NFL. So look,

680
00:36:32.639 --> 00:36:35.239
<v Speaker 1>either way, one way or another, it's gonna come down.

681
00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:37.960
<v Speaker 1>This is gonna come down to a one score game regardless.

682
00:36:38.039 --> 00:36:40.920
<v Speaker 1>And so I I you know what, I'll say this,

683
00:36:41.280 --> 00:36:43.039
<v Speaker 1>I've lost a lot of money over the years betting

684
00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:47.079
<v Speaker 1>against the Chiefs. One of those things. You know, what

685
00:36:47.119 --> 00:36:47.639
<v Speaker 1>does the heart say?

686
00:36:48.679 --> 00:36:51.559
<v Speaker 2>Theoretical money. I know that you're not actually betting cash

687
00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:54.840
<v Speaker 2>American dollars, but it's figurative theoretical money. I know what

688
00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:58.119
<v Speaker 2>you mean. I know what you mean exactly 's hurt?

689
00:36:58.159 --> 00:37:00.679
<v Speaker 2>Its knee? What's what's the line on that that that's

690
00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:01.039
<v Speaker 2>gotta be?

691
00:37:01.119 --> 00:37:04.960
<v Speaker 1>He's yeah, he's he's as far as we know right now,

692
00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:07.599
<v Speaker 1>he's okay. What are the big questions really for me?

693
00:37:07.760 --> 00:37:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Is going to be that offensive line. If they're healthy,

694
00:37:10.519 --> 00:37:13.559
<v Speaker 1>like we said before, they're ballers. It's a great offensive line.

695
00:37:13.599 --> 00:37:15.960
<v Speaker 1>But that center position. Jurgen does a little bit banged up.

696
00:37:16.360 --> 00:37:19.880
<v Speaker 1>He had a back thing, Dickerson has had some health

697
00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:22.519
<v Speaker 1>issues as well. If they're healthy, they should be okay.

698
00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:25.519
<v Speaker 1>But if they're not healthy, hey, as we all know,

699
00:37:26.599 --> 00:37:28.239
<v Speaker 1>or a good offensive line can make a bad quarterback

700
00:37:28.239 --> 00:37:29.800
<v Speaker 1>good and a good quarterback great. I think that's what

701
00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:31.199
<v Speaker 1>the Eagles are counting on come Sunday.

702
00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:35.360
<v Speaker 2>I'll say I think it'd be good. Hopefully it's going

703
00:37:35.400 --> 00:37:38.800
<v Speaker 2>to be a good game, simple as that old line

704
00:37:38.960 --> 00:37:43.480
<v Speaker 2>NFL team against you know, a great club. And everyone

705
00:37:43.519 --> 00:37:45.639
<v Speaker 2>in New England needs to be rooting for Philadelphia on

706
00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:48.239
<v Speaker 2>this one because I'm also rooting against Taylor Swift. I'm

707
00:37:48.280 --> 00:37:50.960
<v Speaker 2>tired of Taylor Swift. I don't know about you, but

708
00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:52.599
<v Speaker 2>I've seen enough of Taylor Swift.

709
00:37:53.519 --> 00:37:56.079
<v Speaker 1>Well, there's also too I think, Dan, you know, you

710
00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:58.800
<v Speaker 1>get right down to it. I think that I don't

711
00:37:58.840 --> 00:38:01.079
<v Speaker 1>want to see Philadelphi and boss to their sister cities.

712
00:38:01.079 --> 00:38:03.480
<v Speaker 1>But you can understand that there's the same level of

713
00:38:03.599 --> 00:38:08.599
<v Speaker 1>East Coast sporting fanaticism, yeah, that Boston shares with Philadelphia.

714
00:38:08.599 --> 00:38:10.159
<v Speaker 1>It's the same kind of vibe, the same kind of

715
00:38:10.199 --> 00:38:11.840
<v Speaker 1>energy when you go to an Eagles game or a

716
00:38:11.840 --> 00:38:13.599
<v Speaker 1>Phillies game. But I'm not just saying that because my

717
00:38:13.639 --> 00:38:17.800
<v Speaker 1>sister in law is an Eagles fan passion.

718
00:38:17.960 --> 00:38:20.320
<v Speaker 2>I al wish that the mayor of Philadelphia knew how

719
00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:23.559
<v Speaker 2>to spell the name of the Eagles. Did you see

720
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:24.079
<v Speaker 2>that video?

721
00:38:24.760 --> 00:38:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen that? Yeah?

722
00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:35.519
<v Speaker 2>Okay, hey, that's always so I so enjoy our conversations, Chris,

723
00:38:35.519 --> 00:38:38.039
<v Speaker 2>I know we veer off the half a little bit,

724
00:38:38.119 --> 00:38:40.079
<v Speaker 2>but we brought it back to the end, and uh,

725
00:38:40.519 --> 00:38:43.039
<v Speaker 2>we'll see what happens. Maybe we can talk once right

726
00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:44.800
<v Speaker 2>before the game and we can we can put a

727
00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:47.039
<v Speaker 2>little side bet on a cup of coffee or something

728
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:47.440
<v Speaker 2>like that.

729
00:38:47.480 --> 00:38:48.960
<v Speaker 1>But I love it. I love it.

730
00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:50.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to be the Eagles no matter who I

731
00:38:50.760 --> 00:38:51.039
<v Speaker 2>bet on.

732
00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:54.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm right, I'm right there with you, my friend.

733
00:38:54.239 --> 00:38:55.119
<v Speaker 1>I look forward to it.

734
00:38:55.400 --> 00:38:59.199
<v Speaker 2>Thanks, Chris, Talk soon, Okay, take care. When we get back,

735
00:38:59.320 --> 00:39:03.760
<v Speaker 2>we're going to talk about a federal investigation into sanctuary cities,

736
00:39:03.800 --> 00:39:07.760
<v Speaker 2>including one that most of you are familiar with, Boston, Massachusetts.

737
00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:10.400
<v Speaker 2>Back on Nightside, right after the nine o'clock news,
