Speaker 1: It's y.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you Boston's radio.
Speaker 3: Rob. I think you had to wake the announcer guy up.
Speaker 3: Al was right there. Al appreciated. What was that announcer
Speaker 3: guy doing? Was he nodding off or something? Or up? Well?
Speaker 3: I don't is that Al checking in here? That's Rob? Okay,
Speaker 3: good enough? I wasn't sure. I mean Al was right
Speaker 3: a spot on. Here's Dan Ray And like the announcer guy,
Speaker 3: isn't he like sitting in the boot there and ready
Speaker 3: to play the song?
Speaker 4: I think the buttons the buttons were sticky there.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, all right, there's Al. Now, Hey Al, how
Speaker 3: are you doing? Dan? Great to hear your voice. I'm
Speaker 3: surprised the Bruins. Basically they have draft rights to this
Speaker 3: kid now for a while of this guy from BC,
Speaker 3: but uh, I think they need some more immediate help.
Speaker 3: I'm surprised that. I'm happy for the for the young
Speaker 3: man from Boston College.
Speaker 4: But yeah, long, long way to go. They've got for
Speaker 4: agency coming up too, but they still have six more picks.
Speaker 4: But these are all dann My goodness, right, these are teenagers,
Speaker 4: eighteen year old, so it's a uh.
Speaker 3: It's a shot in the dark. And and the The
Speaker 3: Socks were edged tonight by by the Blue Jays.
Speaker 4: Close game. Yep, nine zip, yeah, four hits for the Socks.
Speaker 4: They are sputtering as they say.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm beginning to think that the Devers move might
Speaker 3: not have been as good as moved as people thought.
Speaker 4: Well, he's not. He's not exactly lighting lighting it on
Speaker 4: fire out out of the West coast.
Speaker 3: He's got a couple of homers. I don't know what
Speaker 3: he done, what he did tonight. I'm not sure whether
Speaker 3: I think they're I think they are playing the White
Speaker 3: Sox tonight if I'm not mistaken, which in my opinion,
Speaker 3: might be an opportunity for But no, look, Devers has
Speaker 3: had two home runs in the last week. Was that
Speaker 3: a few hits.
Speaker 4: Could be a could be a long hot summer? Here, Dan,
Speaker 4: I'm afraid, and.
Speaker 3: I don't want my summer ruined. You know that's what
Speaker 3: that's what what this week.
Speaker 4: Ruin my summer?
Speaker 3: Thanks al you? All right? All right, So here we
Speaker 3: are at the end of the week twentieth hour. I
Speaker 3: am not going to go over all the things we
Speaker 3: covered this week. We covered lots of stuff, okay, and
Speaker 3: a lot of it, as I'm sure you know, dealt
Speaker 3: with President Trump and the the Iranian attack, which now
Speaker 3: appears to be very successful. The ceasefire is holding between
Speaker 3: Iran and Israel. Uh and uh yeah, it's it's been
Speaker 3: a it's been a historic week. But I'm going to
Speaker 3: challenge you, and I like to challenge my audience, so
Speaker 3: please the only reason I challenge you is that you
Speaker 3: always rise to the occasion. I had an interesting experience
Speaker 3: on Sunday night. Some of you have heard me talk
Speaker 3: about it, but I want to explain it to you,
Speaker 3: and I want to explain I went from a moment
Speaker 3: of real panic through the assistance of a young guy
Speaker 3: at a gas station. And I will tell the story.
Speaker 3: And I don't expect your stories to maybe be as
Speaker 3: dramatic as mine, but I want to find out from
Speaker 3: you something that good happened, something that was good that
Speaker 3: happened to you this week. It's been a tough week.
Speaker 3: We were, you know, on the verge of war and
Speaker 3: all that worked out great, which is fine, But I'm
Speaker 3: talking about on a personal level, on that close to
Speaker 3: home level, maybe you did something this week that you're
Speaker 3: proud of that you'd like to talk about. That's what
Speaker 3: I want you to think about. Here. Let me tell
Speaker 3: you my story. I'm coming back from the Cape on
Speaker 3: Sunday evening and the traffic has sort of abated. I'm
Speaker 3: moving along on Route three North. I'm off the Cape
Speaker 3: over the bridge on Route three through Plymouth. I'm thirty
Speaker 3: miles from home something like that. Thirty thirty five miles
Speaker 3: from home. All of a sudden, my oil light goes on.
Speaker 3: Now it says low oil. I am not great on cars,
Speaker 3: And immediately my heart was in my throat. What does
Speaker 3: that mean? Okay? I'm alone. I don't have someone who
Speaker 3: can pull the information out of the owner's manual in
Speaker 3: the book. What I have a I guess now, a
Speaker 3: twelve year old Vovo station waget. Okay, I love the car.
Speaker 3: It doesn't fail me. Knock on wood. I don't want
Speaker 3: to jinx myself. But at that point, I'm thinking to myself,
Speaker 3: what do I do? Put yourself in my shoes? Do
Speaker 3: I try to get home? What happens if the agencies
Speaker 3: is up on Ruth three, that's not going to be good.
Speaker 3: And all of a sudden, as if I had a
Speaker 3: guardian angel on my shoulder, I see a sign on
Speaker 3: Ruth three that says gas stations one mile ahead and
Speaker 3: it says mobile station. Now I've gotten off roadways during
Speaker 3: my life looking for a gas station and the sign
Speaker 3: says come off, you know, get off this exit and
Speaker 3: there's no gas station. You got to take a guess.
Speaker 3: Do I go left? Do I go right? It's ten
Speaker 3: thirty at night or maybe ten fifteen at night. Well,
Speaker 3: I came off the exit. I almost didn't take the exit,
Speaker 3: but there was something at the last moment that said
Speaker 3: to me, take the exit. Take the exit. And I
Speaker 3: was probably going a little too fast and I almost
Speaker 3: missed it. But I got off the exit. It was
Speaker 3: a nice slow exit. I came out to a set
Speaker 3: of lights. I looked to my left and there was
Speaker 3: a gas station, the mobile station all lit up right there.
Speaker 3: I thought, well, keep let's see what happened. So I
Speaker 3: drove into the station and there was a young guy
Speaker 3: sitting there. It was just it was a pretty hot night.
Speaker 3: Wasn't what we were going to get on Monday and Tuesday,
Speaker 3: but it was. It was a precursor to that. So
Speaker 3: I rolled up right by the front door, rolled down
Speaker 3: my window and I said, can I buy some oil
Speaker 3: from what's your problem. I said, I'm down on oil.
Speaker 3: My light has just gone on. I found out later
Speaker 3: than a yellow light. If it was a red light,
Speaker 3: you got to stop. But I could have probably gone
Speaker 3: a little further. But I got off the road. This guy,
Speaker 3: this young guy, he's about twenty four to twenty five.
Speaker 3: I don't know. Could have been nicer. He said, let's
Speaker 3: pop the hood and let's see what I can do.
Speaker 3: Now again, I have some skills. Mechanical skills are not
Speaker 3: foremost on my list of things I can do. I
Speaker 3: can talk, but so I know how to open the hood.
Speaker 3: Pop the hood. I said, please be careful to motors hot.
Speaker 3: I'm ben. I'm on the road now for about an hour.
Speaker 3: He said, well, let me look, and he got the
Speaker 3: dipstick out and he said, sure, yeah, you're down to
Speaker 3: a quart. I said, to you sell oil, yep, I said,
Speaker 3: it's synthetic oil. He says, let's look at the manual.
Speaker 3: Let's make sure we put the right oil in. He
Speaker 3: found it perfect synthetic oil, exactly that the right mix.
Speaker 3: He came out, put two quarts in. He did all
Speaker 3: the work. I'm just watching and very personal young guy,
Speaker 3: and I tipped him. I paid for the two quarts
Speaker 3: of oil, and I doubled up on the tip, so
Speaker 3: I made it worth his while. We probably spent ten
Speaker 3: minutes and I was back on the road. Got home
Speaker 3: safe and sound. The next day went over to Mackenzie
Speaker 3: Autos all in Brighton, where I have my great friend
Speaker 3: John McKenzie and Tom Fay, and I got everything, got
Speaker 3: a complete oil change. Everything was taken care of. If
Speaker 3: you ever need a place in Brighton, Mackenzie Motors McKenzie Brothers.
Speaker 3: Ken has retired, John is still running the shop over
Speaker 3: there along with Tom. Anyway, my story is that I
Speaker 3: was so appreciative that that first of all, I made
Speaker 3: the right decisions. I didn't make the decision. Some force
Speaker 3: beyond me made that decision. I was ready to keep
Speaker 3: go to home, go home, but there was something inside
Speaker 3: me and said this is get off the get off
Speaker 3: the road. This guy was sitting there. I have no
Speaker 3: idea why he was sitting there. If he hadn't been
Speaker 3: sitting out front, what have I walked into the gas station. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I probably would have. But within a matter of a
Speaker 3: thirty seconds, not only did he assure me that yeah
Speaker 3: we got oil, don't worry, and I'll take care of
Speaker 3: it for you. It was I went from high anxiety
Speaker 3: to and I'm so grateful to this young guy's name
Speaker 3: was Tony. Left in my business card. He said, if
Speaker 3: I can ever be of helped you, give me a call.
Speaker 3: You have no idea who I am, but that's my
Speaker 3: business card. So the other radio, Yeah, I said on
Speaker 3: the radio Monday through Friday night. So I'm thankful for him.
Speaker 3: I'm thankful that that little I don't know. I call
Speaker 3: it a spidey sense, call it your intuition, call it
Speaker 3: your guardian angel, whatever you want to call it made
Speaker 3: me make the right decisions. If I had tried to
Speaker 3: book it all the way home, could have I got home?
Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know. I'll never know that I made
Speaker 3: the right decision. Something influenced me to make the right decision.
Speaker 3: You decide what it was. Okay, I want to hear
Speaker 3: your story. Did you have doesn't have to be this
Speaker 3: last week? Recently? Were you in a spot somewhere where
Speaker 3: someone helped you? Were you in a spot where you
Speaker 3: help someone else? This is a tough twentieth hour, I
Speaker 3: make no mistake about it, but I wanted to share
Speaker 3: my story with you. I'd like to think that Tony
Speaker 3: somehow is listening some mobile station. It was in hands,
Speaker 3: and I'm not exactly sure it was Exit twenty seven
Speaker 3: off of Route three six seven, two five, four ten
Speaker 3: thirty six one seven nine three one ten thirty. If
Speaker 3: I have overreached here, it's my fault. But guess what.
Speaker 3: I believe that each of you have a story recently,
Speaker 3: if not recently, at some point a month ago where
Speaker 3: you were in a mind and somehow, some way you
Speaker 3: were helped. I'm hoping, I'm hoping that there are enough
Speaker 3: stories out there. We could always go open lines. I
Speaker 3: can finish the show, but I'm hoping that my audience,
Speaker 3: which never never disappoints, And this is the toughest challenge
Speaker 3: I've ever issued on a on a Friday night, think
Speaker 3: did something happen to you this week? Did something happen
Speaker 3: to you in the last few weeks where either you
Speaker 3: helped someone or someone helped you. I'm I'm blessed. I'm
Speaker 3: absolutely blessed with what happened to me. I went from panic.
Speaker 3: Can you those of you who drive an Onto mobile
Speaker 3: you know what I'm talking about. That light comes up
Speaker 3: and it's like, oh, my God, what does that mean?
Speaker 3: What does it mean? And I'm alone? I'm alone, but
Speaker 3: there was some something guiding me. I believe that the
Speaker 3: lines at six one, seven, two, five, four, ten thirty
Speaker 3: are full. The lines at six one, seven, nine, three, one,
Speaker 3: two thirty are available. Ten thirty are available. Six one, seven,
Speaker 3: nine three, one, ten thirty. I misspoke, They're available. Back
Speaker 3: on nights Side right after this is a quick break.
Speaker 3: We're going to Christian in Peabty, Karen in Wisconsin, Lee,
Speaker 3: and Quincy, and all you have to do is fill
Speaker 3: up those last two lines, and we're after the races
Speaker 3: six one, seven, nine, three, one, ten thirty. Was there
Speaker 3: something that happened to you recently that you'd like to
Speaker 3: share with us, something good or something good that you did.
Speaker 3: Let's end this week on the most positive note in
Speaker 3: the history of Nightside.
Speaker 2: Read right back, You're on night Side with Dan Ray
Speaker 2: on w Boston's news radio.
Speaker 3: All right, this is a gamble that I love gambling
Speaker 3: with this audience. Let me go to Christian in Pebaty. Hi, Christian,
Speaker 3: how are you tonight?
Speaker 5: Doing great?
Speaker 6: Hey?
Speaker 7: Dan?
Speaker 5: I got a good one for you too.
Speaker 3: Good.
Speaker 5: Well, not a great vacation.
Speaker 3: I'm you just graded. As I say, my week, my
Speaker 3: week turned one hundred and eighty degrees at about ten
Speaker 3: fifteen on Sunday night, all to the good.
Speaker 8: Tell me your story, Kay, Okay, I got laid off
Speaker 8: from work and I have a file.
Speaker 5: For unemployment, A little big deal.
Speaker 9: I did what I was supposed to do, and I
Speaker 9: had to go through a whole bunch of hoops to
Speaker 9: get things done, and as to go back on my
Speaker 9: face and the corrections, and then because once I received it,
Speaker 9: I made the point to call each department up and
Speaker 9: the people that helped me.
Speaker 5: And tell them thank you. That's all idea.
Speaker 9: And you heard one lady dropped the phone and I
Speaker 9: had another one. She takes a deep side and I said,
Speaker 9: I might. I don't know how many times this happens,
Speaker 9: but she says, you just made my day because I've
Speaker 9: had a career working here at this office for over
Speaker 9: twenty five years, and you're the first one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, wow, all.
Speaker 5: Do you guys do? No one calls to thank.
Speaker 10: You, you know, and it's just made I made the
Speaker 10: point the police department and just it was just a thing,
Speaker 10: thank you, because it's a privilege, it's not a right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's great. And look, I'll tell you this
Speaker 3: in life generally, in life, generally, people don't take the
Speaker 3: time to say thank you, whether it's holding the door
Speaker 3: for somebody or I'll tell you what, and I'm talking
Speaker 3: about this before Christian. You come up to a crosswalk
Speaker 3: and there's somebody who's about to enter the crosswalk, well,
Speaker 3: obviously they have the right away, and most times, particularly
Speaker 3: with younger people, sadly, they never even look at you.
Speaker 3: They don't, they don't even acknowledge you. And they don't
Speaker 3: when I have to cross the street at a crosswalk,
Speaker 3: I go on in my way to point at the
Speaker 3: person and say thank you, thumbs up or something. It's important,
Speaker 3: it's important. That's a great story, and I hope that
Speaker 3: more people will say thank you because it I think
Speaker 3: it's ignorant, just because you're the opposite of that to
Speaker 3: do that under your circumstances. Yeah, what a gracious gesture.
Speaker 9: For all those other listening for all that they do,
Speaker 9: they are unundated with all.
Speaker 5: Kinds, is it work cloths of people and problems, Well,
Speaker 5: your people out there when you're dealing with that realistic
Speaker 5: human and just take a moment when it's all said
Speaker 5: and done to call them and say how long?
Speaker 3: How long? When were you laid off?
Speaker 5: I was laid off the may.
Speaker 3: So okay, and what type of work do you do?
Speaker 9: I have multiple different things I do, but this time
Speaker 9: it happened to be a machine shop.
Speaker 3: Okay, so you you know, you know how to work
Speaker 3: with big machines and things like that.
Speaker 8: Is what tells about I know how to work. I'm
Speaker 8: good at whatever put my mind to. So my job
Speaker 8: was not to run the seat and see bush buttons.
Speaker 9: It was physical, grinding, hard work making sure each piece
Speaker 9: that went out because they were contracted with the government
Speaker 9: with NASA to make sure that.
Speaker 5: They were perfect. And the boss was so.
Speaker 9: In awe of my work being they go off. He
Speaker 9: was like, look, nothing I can do here. But I
Speaker 9: just simply wanted you to know that I haven't had
Speaker 9: work as good as yours.
Speaker 5: And you'll get kudos wherever you go for me. So
Speaker 5: you know, but I've ho it's about you give something you.

Speaker 9: Not the first time I've been out of work. It's

Speaker 3: Back to the phones. Who go, Let's go to Karen
Speaker 3: in Wisconsin. Karen, welcome back.
Speaker 11: How are you I'm fine, Dan, how are you.
Speaker 3: I'm doing great. Tell me something good that happened to
Speaker 3: you this week, or something good you did for someone else.
Speaker 11: Well, I'm this is nonscripted, as you call it, So
Speaker 11: guide me if I go off, okay, off our topic.
Speaker 11: But you know, every time I put it on the radio,
Speaker 11: I have to hear about Dan Ray and his teeth
Speaker 11: and the implants, and you know my situation, and I
Speaker 11: didn't do anything about it, and I ended up kind
Speaker 11: of eating my teeth before. But implants are very expensive.
Speaker 11: So so I'm kind of, you know, kind of toothless,
Speaker 11: as I hate tell the world. But what happened is
Speaker 11: last night I was with my cousin or something, and
Speaker 11: what happens is I already had turned down going to
Speaker 11: these surgeons to start, you know, cleaning things up. And
Speaker 11: what happened was all of a sudden this place that
Speaker 11: she said, well, I thought I dreamt it, but we
Speaker 11: so online, we made an appointment with this. There's only
Speaker 11: five doctors in the whole area that do the kind
Speaker 11: of surgery where you got to cut out infection and things,
Speaker 11: and they all got trained in Boston. But anyway to
Speaker 11: get y end point here, so online, made an appointment
Speaker 11: for this morning and went to this other place where
Speaker 11: someone specializes in extractions only you know, and will cut
Speaker 11: without putting me to sleep, because I don't want to
Speaker 11: be put to sleep. And I went there and got
Speaker 11: a free consultation and it was half the price, and
Speaker 11: you know they will. They gave me options instead of
Speaker 11: you know, a plan and out of the blue. So
Speaker 11: I'm gonna I'm planning to go ahead with it and
Speaker 11: let you everything out.
Speaker 3: Okay, well, you know, and hopefully you can get the
Speaker 3: whole thing taken care of. Yeah, work with the doctors. Again.
Speaker 3: I've never had a dad implant. I want to make
Speaker 3: that very clear, but I've spent some time with doctor
Speaker 3: sal in his office and he's a great guy. And
Speaker 3: if I haven't need a dental implant, he's my guy.
Speaker 3: Trust me on that. And now you know. The other
Speaker 3: thing too, is that sometimes at these dental schools they're
Speaker 3: looking for volunteers and patients who would be willing to
Speaker 3: allow the aspiring dentist to work. So talk to the.
Speaker 2: Do it.
Speaker 3: They might get you. They may be able to open
Speaker 3: a door for you. Karen, that's a great story. Thanks
Speaker 3: a positive story and you told it.
Speaker 11: It is. Thank you for the time you spent saying
Speaker 11: saying advertisement. Bye bye, thank you, Kared.
Speaker 3: All right, have a great night. All right, gonna keep rolling.

Speaker 3: time nights.
Speaker 1: I go right ahead, are you doy one?
Speaker 3: Good Lee? What's up? Nothing?
Speaker 1: On Tuesday night? It was a real hot night. Yeah
Speaker 1: and yeah, it was a real hort night. They told
Speaker 1: you not to go out. I'm seventy three, okay, I live.
Speaker 1: I live in a very nice bill thing ten floors.
Speaker 1: I went outside to the smoking area. That's where they
Speaker 1: let us smoke. I of course I smoked, which I
Speaker 1: shouldn't have done.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to election. You go ahead, I want
Speaker 3: to hear your story. Go ahead.
Speaker 1: Ten minutes later, I was feeling woozy and faint. I said,
Speaker 1: I bet I better go upstairs. I started walking up
Speaker 1: the walkway holding the railing. Next thing, I know, I
Speaker 1: guess I passed out. But there were people, there were people,
Speaker 1: you know, in the building around me. I remember them
Speaker 1: carrying me a little bit into the air conditioning into
Speaker 1: the building. I was very woozy. They put me in
Speaker 1: the elevator and I blacked out again. Anyway, they carried
Speaker 1: me down to my room and they made me on
Speaker 1: the floor. There was this kid there I had never
Speaker 1: seen before. I said, I said, do you live in
Speaker 1: the building. He goes, yeah, I live on the third floor.
Speaker 1: And he said, I'm in the MT I'm lying on
Speaker 1: the floor. I said, I'm okay. He goes, no, he
Speaker 1: said he put me on the floor with my other
Speaker 1: neighbors in my room. I said to him, I'm okay,
Speaker 1: I just fainted. He goes, no, you're not. He's and
Speaker 1: he's asking me all these questions, taking my pulse. And
Speaker 1: next thing I know, I'm in the ambulance for the
Speaker 1: first ambulance ride of my life. And I was just
Speaker 1: very dehydrated. I was a little scared maybe I had
Speaker 1: a stroke or something, but no, I was in the
Speaker 1: hospital four hours. But here's a kid who came up
Speaker 1: and was a real good Samaritan, you know. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: helped me out and he put a note on my

Speaker 7: a shout out to Dot from Infort for going to
Speaker 7: bat for me Monday night. I thought you were going
Speaker 7: to throw in the water. She really went. She did
Speaker 7: carry my water. The damage control ran interference.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah she was. She was right there helping
Speaker 3: you out. And uh, you can never have a more
Speaker 3: loyal to loyal friend than Dot. I was surprised she
Speaker 3: was upset with Trump. She's normally a big Trump person,
Speaker 3: and I think.
Speaker 7: I normally am too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I'll tell you. I think you are you
Speaker 3: a little surprised that they that the Iranians have have
Speaker 3: complied with this cease fire. I think we hit him
Speaker 3: and hit him hard, because I've said a couple of
Speaker 3: times this week, oh yeah, at what they do, not
Speaker 3: at what they say. They'll tell their people, they'll lie
Speaker 3: to their people. We had a great victory, we brought
Speaker 3: America to its knees. They would and they've admitted right now.
Speaker 3: The Iranians themselves have admitted that their nuclear facilities are
Speaker 3: in bait are in big trouble, have been damaged better.
Speaker 7: I agree with you. I'm just afraid of possible sleeper
Speaker 7: so retaliation.
Speaker 3: What they're here anyway? I guess what. I think they
Speaker 3: scooped a bunch of them on Tuesday. If I'm not mistaken,
Speaker 3: I think ices is well. Probably have some idea, Glad.
Speaker 3: I appreciate you anyone, Thank you many quickly.
Speaker 7: Hello, Yeah, glehead, very quickly. Yeah. The last time a

Speaker 3: into your love life, Glenn. I got to know.

Speaker 3: a TV show? I didn't know that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they Yeah, on their Facebook they have a TV show. Okay,
Speaker 6: and they picked they picked our names out of a
Speaker 6: drum and I was one of the five people they
Speaker 6: picked out of the drum. And then you go on
Speaker 6: the stage and you have to pick three numbers so
Speaker 6: you can get up to one thousand dollars.

Speaker 3: the head of the lottery, is a friend of mine.
