[00:01:07] Speaker B: We're now into Sunday, January 23rd and his orchestra. And you tell me how old you think they are. And whoever gets the most correct answers gets to be the winner and also gets a really stupid prize. Thank you. Let's see who's playing. Glenn is playing the game with us. Hi, Brent. You are. You are having a birthday today yourself. [00:01:29] Speaker C: I'm 41 today. [00:01:31] Speaker B: 41 on January 23rd. We don't have to guess your birthday at all because of your age. [00:01:36] Speaker C: It was 1953. [00:01:37] Speaker B: You were born in 1953 in the. [00:01:40] Speaker C: Now defunct osteopathic hospital in Cranston, Rhode Island. [00:01:44] Speaker B: Well, that was a beautiful place to be born. [00:01:47] Speaker D: And I love the. Speaking of birthday presents, I love that. [00:01:50] Speaker C: New traffic woman you get on there. [00:01:52] Speaker B: Oh. You fall in love with any woman's voice that's on this program. You are so fickle. [00:01:57] Speaker C: Do you realize if you were to marry me, I would have a new Lisa on life. [00:02:01] Speaker D: Get it? Lisa. Lisa. [00:02:03] Speaker B: We're gonna talk with Lisa in just a few minutes. Try to restrain yourself a little bit, Glenn, okay? Lisa's gonna be playing the game with us too. [00:02:10] Speaker D: All right. [00:02:11] Speaker B: Michael is playing the game with us. Michael is up in Chelmsford. Hello. Nice to talk to you again, Michael. [00:02:15] Speaker E: Good. [00:02:16] Speaker B: I can't wait to talk to Lisa either. Pardon me? [00:02:19] Speaker E: I can't wait to talk to Lisa either. [00:02:21] Speaker B: Oh, you're excited about Lisa. And you're the. You're the little guy who sounds like you're about 4ft tall. You're actually 6ft, and you weigh 210, but you're a big guy. [00:02:30] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:02:31] Speaker B: And you're 15. [00:02:32] Speaker E: Yep. [00:02:33] Speaker B: Okay. Well, delighted to have you with us. Okay. Is it okay for you to be up this late? [00:02:38] Speaker D: Are you. [00:02:38] Speaker B: Are you defying. Okay, you're not defying anybody's rules at your house by being up just like that. No, they're not saying, michael, when you get to bed, I don't care how tall and big you are, you gotta get your sleep. Nobody's saying that. Nope. Okay, that's asleep. Oh, they're all asleep. Okay, here's Terry from Indiana is playing the game with us. Hi, Carrie. [00:03:01] Speaker E: Hi, Norm. How you doing? [00:03:02] Speaker B: Good to talk with you again and nice to have you as playing our games. This is the first. No, this is not the first time you played. Oh, no, you're an old professional. [00:03:11] Speaker E: Yeah, I played many times. [00:03:12] Speaker B: Many. Now where and where are you in Indiana? [00:03:15] Speaker E: Fort Wayne. [00:03:17] Speaker B: Fort Wayne, Indiana, where the temperature is 73 degrees below zero, not counting the wind chill factor. [00:03:23] Speaker E: Oh, yeah. We missed two days of school this week. Well, this past week because the wind chill factor was 50 below, so. [00:03:30] Speaker B: Really? Oh, my. [00:03:32] Speaker D: What. [00:03:32] Speaker B: What grade are you in? [00:03:34] Speaker E: I'm a junior. [00:03:35] Speaker B: Junior at high school? [00:03:37] Speaker E: Yep. [00:03:38] Speaker B: Hey, do you know Michael? Michael? Michael. Yes. What do you say? Oh, geez. Do you think Michael is undesirable? Because his voice hasn't changed yet, so he probably sounds too young, but he's a big guy. What do you think of Carrie, Michael? Oh, well, he says it because you would not say nice things about him. That's a question for him. Okay, you. You hang in there and maybe as we go along, you'll get to know each other a little bit better. [00:04:08] Speaker E: Okay. [00:04:09] Speaker B: Okay. Here's Kristen, who's in East Bridgewater, as opposed to Bridgewater. How you doing, Kristen? [00:04:18] Speaker E: Oh, okay. [00:04:21] Speaker B: Oh, just okay. [00:04:22] Speaker E: Well, I'm extremely tired, but. [00:04:24] Speaker B: I know. And you stayed up this late to. To play the game with us. Do you know how much I. I appreciate that? This much. This much. Yeah. I'm spreading my arms out to show you how much. How much I appreciate it. We'll. Well, let's see. We'll get in. And we've got Aaron Sawyer, who's with us. Hi, Aaron. [00:04:44] Speaker D: Howdy. [00:04:44] Speaker F: I think I'm going to be resigning and taking up the job as Lisa's fan club president, I believe. [00:04:49] Speaker B: Well, you can. She can be your president. You're a fan club president, too. [00:04:53] Speaker F: Should have very light job duties, that's for sure. [00:04:56] Speaker B: Oh, don't give me that modest business. And Lisa's there with you right now. Lisa, you can hear me? Okay, I can. Okay. Now do you understand how the dumb birthday game is played? I just I tell you who's born in the state and you just guess their age and it's a pretty stupid game. I don't and all that, but. [00:05:15] Speaker D: We. [00:05:16] Speaker B: Take this, these raw materials and we, we make them into a big production and it becomes hilarious and wondrous. Or boring. Sometimes it's boring. Does that sound like a real challenge to you? [00:05:29] Speaker G: Well, actually, that's just a cardboard picture of me over in the production studio. I go off and do other things. [00:05:34] Speaker B: Oh, that's right. [00:05:35] Speaker G: You. [00:05:35] Speaker B: You just have a fake picture. That's right, that's right. This is the real you. [00:05:39] Speaker G: Now I go into the other room and shoot some pool and drink some beer and do stuff like that. [00:05:42] Speaker F: Yeah, Sid's actually with us over here at the traffic office. [00:05:45] Speaker B: So who's that? Where he is now. I wondered why there's nothing but blankness and a. And a cardboard cutout of a producer there. [00:05:53] Speaker F: He's getting awful close to Lisa, too. [00:05:56] Speaker B: Whoa. Between Lisa. Between Lisa and Kristen and Carrie. I'm really getting excited. [00:06:02] Speaker H: Kind of crowded in here. [00:06:03] Speaker B: It is. Okay, we also have Tony Nesbitt, WBZ producer par excellence, who's with us also. Oh, I think I heard some people gasping for you. [00:06:14] Speaker D: You know, Norm, you have just about as many players as commercials you played before this game. [00:06:18] Speaker B: I know it and I haven't. I got about 17 more commercials to get it caught up with. What? The hell with them. [00:06:24] Speaker D: You know, I want you to think really hard now, okay? [00:06:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:27] Speaker D: Kerry and Kristen. All right. Yes, they were in the studio. Oh, well, less than a year ago. [00:06:35] Speaker B: Oh, that's right. [00:06:36] Speaker D: You remember now? [00:06:37] Speaker B: I do remember. Yes, I do remember. And I remember you. You met them and you felt desperately in love with both of them and you've been writing them obscene letters ever since. [00:06:46] Speaker D: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Too much memory, Norm. Go. [00:06:48] Speaker B: Wait a minute. Okay, okay, here's. Here's what we do. I tell you who's born again, as you know, on this date and that kind of stuff. [00:06:57] Speaker D: Oh, happy birthday, Glenn. Excuse me now. I figured I'd get that out of the way. [00:07:01] Speaker B: He's 41 years old today. Yeah, he's an old poop, isn't he? Huh? [00:07:05] Speaker C: I'm a middle aged either. [00:07:06] Speaker B: A middle aged what? Geezer. Oh, middle aged geezer. [00:07:10] Speaker C: As opposed to my buddy Paul Benjamin. [00:07:12] Speaker B: Who'S an old as who? [00:07:16] Speaker C: Paul Benzikl. [00:07:17] Speaker B: You did say Paul Benzikl. [00:07:18] Speaker C: Well, he calls himself an old geezer, so it's okay. [00:07:20] Speaker B: I see. Okay, okay. Anita Pointer, one of the members of the Pointer Sisters. [00:07:27] Speaker D: Which one is she. [00:07:27] Speaker B: She's the one over there. Oh, okay. See where I'm pointing? That's right. It's. It is an optical illusion. I hate this business. Everybody steals my material. [00:07:38] Speaker D: That's why I asked you, Norm. I wasn't sure which one she was. [00:07:41] Speaker B: She was the one. She's the one in the middle next to the other one. Seems like she's on the left. But actually, that's an optical illusion. That's right, because their biggest hit was slow hand In 1981, they recorded that Anita Pointer. Okay. What do you think, Glenn? How old is she? [00:08:01] Speaker C: Give me a hint. I need a pointer. No, she's 47. [00:08:05] Speaker B: She's 47. Yeah. He's gonna do bad jokes, but it's his birthday, so we have to let him get away. Yeah. Even though they're stupid and pitiful. Pitiful jokes. Michael, what do you think? [00:08:17] Speaker E: 45. [00:08:18] Speaker B: 45. [00:08:20] Speaker E: Yeah. [00:08:20] Speaker B: Okay. Carrie? [00:08:25] Speaker E: 51. [00:08:27] Speaker B: 51. [00:08:28] Speaker D: Okay. [00:08:29] Speaker B: 51 years old. Okay. What do you think, Krista? [00:08:33] Speaker E: I want to say 50. [00:08:34] Speaker B: 50. And Tony, what do you think? [00:08:38] Speaker D: You got a pencil? You're all right there. You're all set in a pen, right? [00:08:40] Speaker B: No, I bring your button. [00:08:42] Speaker D: You have a pencil and a pen, right? [00:08:44] Speaker B: I have a pen. [00:08:44] Speaker D: Oh, okay. Because I heard you say you needed a pointer. I wasn't sure. [00:08:48] Speaker B: Oh, geez. I expected more from you. I'm so. I'm so dis. You know, I don't know why I'm. I'm so used to nothingness from you. I don't know why I expected more, Norm. She. [00:09:00] Speaker D: I need a pointer. [00:09:02] Speaker B: I need a pointer. [00:09:04] Speaker D: She's. Let me see. In 81, she was probably. [00:09:10] Speaker B: That's right. An 81 was slow hand. [00:09:17] Speaker C: 45. [00:09:19] Speaker B: 45. Okay. You're saying the same as Michael said. [00:09:23] Speaker D: I am. [00:09:24] Speaker B: I am. I noticed that. Yeah. Because I have a pointer here and I'm writing it down. [00:09:28] Speaker D: You don't need one anymore, then. [00:09:30] Speaker B: Next, Aaron, traffic person. Aaron, what do you think? I think, Therefore I am. [00:09:37] Speaker F: 41. [00:09:39] Speaker B: Now, that was very intellectual, that, what he just said. I think, therefore I am. That was really nice. And the very lovely Lisa, who has had the men are listening and falling in love with you. [00:09:51] Speaker D: This is her very first guest. [00:09:52] Speaker B: First. Very first. Guess. This is another thing, like the first traffic report ever. She's making history today. Every time she opens her mouth and says anything, it's the first time she's done it. We're excited about that, Lisa. [00:10:07] Speaker H: Well, thanks. [00:10:09] Speaker B: Well, thanks. Don't be so casual. I can't stand newcomers being so casual. Okay. How old do you think Anita Pointer is? [00:10:17] Speaker H: I'm gonna say 47. [00:10:19] Speaker B: 47. You see where I'm pointing? That's where she is among the other Pointer sisters. Sid, what do you think? Are you. Are you in love? Are you in love with Lisa or Carrie or Kristen? Which one? [00:10:32] Speaker G: All three of them, actually, Norm. [00:10:33] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:10:34] Speaker G: Head over heels. [00:10:35] Speaker B: Yeah, your head. Your head blooded. The same as I am. [00:10:38] Speaker G: In fact, if you just go ahead and call the ambulance, Sid can get. [00:10:41] Speaker D: Away with that because he's got that cardboard cutout he puts in the. And he can walk away and go to Kristen and then he puts the COVID and he goes to Kerry, and they don't know he's gone. [00:10:49] Speaker B: I never thought of it. [00:10:51] Speaker D: That's how he does it. [00:10:52] Speaker G: And it works out for everybody. [00:10:53] Speaker D: And it's got about the same amount of personality, too, right? [00:10:58] Speaker B: Maybe a little more. Okay. [00:11:02] Speaker G: You guys are so nice. [00:11:04] Speaker B: How old do you think Anita Pointer. I happen to be in love with Anita Pointer. I don't know about the rest of you or these other young kippies there. [00:11:13] Speaker G: Well, I'll go with 38, Norm. [00:11:17] Speaker B: 38. Okay. I need a point, actually, is 46. Oh, so we have a lot of winners, actually. Just Tony. Yes. [00:11:28] Speaker D: All right. [00:11:29] Speaker E: What. [00:11:31] Speaker D: Glenn remembers too much. It scares me. [00:11:33] Speaker B: Sometimes I scare myself. Yeah. Glenn, go get yourself a life, will you, please? Far too much idle time. Yeah. Princess. [00:11:43] Speaker C: The piano tuning business is sporadic, you know. [00:11:46] Speaker B: That's right. This Glenn is a piano tuner. A Princess Caroline of Monaco. Let me tell you a few things about her. Lives in Monte Carlo, Monaco. Daughter of the late Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier. Her second husband, Stefano Kusiraghi, died in a speedboat race in 1990, which doesn't help you identify how old she might be. But Princess Caroline, let's start with you, Sid. How old do you think Princess Caroline, Grace Kelly's daughter is? [00:12:20] Speaker G: Grace Kelly's daughter. Let's see. [00:12:23] Speaker B: Did I say Chris Kelly? I meant, you know, I meant Grace. Grace Kelly's. [00:12:29] Speaker G: Grace Kelly. [00:12:30] Speaker B: Grace Kelly. [00:12:31] Speaker C: If I knew Grace Kelly's age, I could do them. [00:12:33] Speaker B: And Prince Rainier. [00:12:36] Speaker G: I'm going to go with 35. [00:12:40] Speaker B: 35, yeah. Okay. And the lovely Lisa. Are you lovely? Because I. Because I can't see you and I. [00:12:49] Speaker H: Oh, that's a tough question. I'm not sure what the answer is. [00:12:55] Speaker B: You find when you go by a group of men that they spread, spin their heads around and stare at you. [00:13:02] Speaker H: No, I don't think that usually happens. [00:13:04] Speaker B: Doesn't happen with me either. So don't feel too badly. [00:13:07] Speaker H: I'm in good company. [00:13:08] Speaker B: Yes. [00:13:09] Speaker H: Okay. I think Princess Caroline is 37. [00:13:12] Speaker B: 37. That's very nice. You're, you, you're starting off with your traffic reporting career and really nice style. One day, you know, you'll end up probably having to report it on the. With Jerry Williams or Gene Burns or something. Schlock a mania program. And, and everything will be down the toilet from that point on. So this is kind of nice. You get kind of breaking into it in a, in a really fun way. [00:13:35] Speaker H: It is nice. Thanks for your help. [00:13:37] Speaker D: And the Birthday game is extremely acceptable on a resume. [00:13:40] Speaker B: It really is. We've, we've had, we've, we've placed a number of people in fantastic jobs as a result of being able to include this in their resume. [00:13:50] Speaker D: I mean, look at Jack Hart. Four years he's been playing the game, still doing overnight traffic. [00:13:55] Speaker B: Well, he happens to be an exception. Yeah. But we have the chief executive officer of Borgatti Automobile Manufacturing Company. He started out as a traffic reporter on this program. And as I recall, I think it was Michelle Pfeiffer started out as a traffic reporter. [00:14:15] Speaker D: I remember those days. [00:14:17] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Remember when you just break it in? [00:14:19] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:14:20] Speaker B: Well, look at it, for heaven's sakes. [00:14:21] Speaker F: Yeah, and ignore him. I did some research. Not only that, but Rush Limbaugh started out in the BZ copter before he got too big to fit in it. [00:14:30] Speaker B: That's right. He achieved his greatest success when somebody pushed him out after he talked too, too stupidly, as I recall. Anyway, Aaron, how old you think the lovely Princess, whoever we're talking about Princess Caroline of Monaco. How old would she be today? Oh, 35. 35. Okay, Tony. [00:14:53] Speaker D: Princess Stephanie is the younger one, correct? [00:14:55] Speaker B: That's correct. [00:14:56] Speaker D: All right, so Princess Caroline, 30. 38. 38. [00:15:03] Speaker B: Okay. As opposed to. Also she has a younger, younger brother named Prince Maishi. [00:15:11] Speaker D: I mean, what? [00:15:12] Speaker B: I, I made that up. It seemed like terribly funny as I was thinking of it, but as it came out, it was kind of, it was really stupid. It failed. It failed badly. Yes, that's true, Kristen. [00:15:26] Speaker E: I guess. 33. [00:15:28] Speaker B: 33. Are you a young person? You're a young person too, aren't you, Kristen? [00:15:32] Speaker E: I'm 17. [00:15:33] Speaker B: 17 is a good age. Demographics on this thing are beautiful. [00:15:37] Speaker D: Fantastic. [00:15:37] Speaker B: Fellow sales department for Evansach. This is really great. Have you heard that ad on WHDH about bz? [00:15:46] Speaker G: I, I heard it the other day. [00:15:47] Speaker H: Did you? [00:15:49] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. I'll talk about that a little bit later on. But they're so full of coke over there. [00:15:55] Speaker D: That. [00:15:55] Speaker B: It's a name. [00:15:56] Speaker D: Full of coke. Gee, there we. There's some demographic phrase for you right there, huh? [00:16:00] Speaker B: Well, we try to get all ages, including the old poops too. [00:16:06] Speaker D: Full of coke. [00:16:06] Speaker B: Oh, full of coke. [00:16:08] Speaker D: Well, that could be a young thing, too. [00:16:09] Speaker B: I suppose it depends on what kind of coke you're talking about. Carrie, what do you think? How old do you think Princess Caroline is? [00:16:18] Speaker E: I think she's 37. [00:16:21] Speaker B: You said he. Did you say you think he's 37? [00:16:26] Speaker E: No, I said she. [00:16:26] Speaker B: Oh, she. You did say. You did say she. Okay, 37. And, Michael, I'm going to have to. [00:16:33] Speaker E: Agree with Terry and Tony. 37. [00:16:36] Speaker B: 37. [00:16:37] Speaker D: Too bad, Mike. I said 38. But know. Thanks for the song, though. [00:16:42] Speaker B: Yeah. Actually, Lisa said. Yeah, Lisa said 37. No problem. And you said 38. Okay, Glenn, what do you think? [00:16:51] Speaker C: 37. [00:16:52] Speaker B: You say 37. Well, those of you who said 37 are correct. Yeah, she is 37. That means Glenn. [00:16:59] Speaker D: I know, Mike. Sorry. [00:17:01] Speaker B: Glenn, Michael, Carrie. The lovely Carrie and the lovely Lisa. [00:17:06] Speaker D: Two in a row for. [00:17:07] Speaker B: Yeah, Lisa and Glenn and Michael all have two. [00:17:12] Speaker D: Now, do you understand, Lisa, you have two in a row. You're a beginner. You know what we have to accuse you of now? Exactly. Exactly. You're cheating. [00:17:21] Speaker H: Things can only go downhill from here. [00:17:24] Speaker B: And the cheaters. The first time around. The future doesn't look good. [00:17:29] Speaker D: No, not at all. [00:17:30] Speaker B: No, not at all. No. It's awful. Okay. Jean Merot, the movie actress, born in Paris. French stage and screen act. Do you know who she is? Jean. Like in Jean Moreau. [00:17:44] Speaker D: As in Moreau Moreau. [00:17:46] Speaker B: As in Moreau. Jean Merreau, as in Moreau. [00:17:53] Speaker A: Years. [00:17:53] Speaker D: Anything? [00:17:54] Speaker B: No, I have nothing. No information on her beyond that. Just French stage and screen actors. I will tell you, she's not. She's not a newcomer to the movie business. [00:18:03] Speaker D: Okay. [00:18:05] Speaker C: Is he related to Menagerie? [00:18:08] Speaker B: Oh, he's doing. He's doing dirty jokes. Oh, it's pitiful. But it's his birthday, so we'll get. Let him get away with it. Tony, we're going to start with you on this one. John Merrill. [00:18:18] Speaker D: I knew you were going to do that. [00:18:23] Speaker B: You ought to be a psychic on the radio. Maybe Bob Rolley could use you some Thursday night when the other person. Maybe I could buy time. [00:18:35] Speaker D: Let's see. French stage and screen, eh? Would you like some more sauce in your chef? [00:18:45] Speaker B: Yeah. As I said to John Morrow the other day, I said to her, I. [00:18:48] Speaker D: Said. [00:19:06] Speaker B: And as soon as I got the bra, somehow or other, she hit me in the face. [00:19:11] Speaker D: 87. [00:19:12] Speaker B: 87. Is that what you say? 87? Are you saying that, Tony? [00:19:18] Speaker D: Yes. No, man. [00:19:19] Speaker B: Okay. Tony says 87 years old. And what do you say, Curry? [00:19:28] Speaker E: I'll go with Tony. [00:19:30] Speaker B: You say. Are you gonna go with Tony and say 87 years old also? [00:19:35] Speaker E: Yep. [00:19:36] Speaker B: Okay. Well, we're getting really sickening. And we finally begun this. Okay, Lisa, what do you think? [00:19:44] Speaker H: I'm gonna go with 67. [00:19:47] Speaker B: 67. [00:19:48] Speaker D: Oh, well, little disparate. Disparage. Whatever the word is. [00:19:52] Speaker B: Listen. Well, that's 20 years off the lady's life. That's kind of nice. [00:19:55] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:19:56] Speaker B: Glenn, what do you think, birthday boy? [00:19:58] Speaker C: I'll say 67. [00:19:59] Speaker B: You'll say 67 also. You just copy what other people say, don't you? [00:20:03] Speaker D: Well, he's trying to. [00:20:05] Speaker C: No, I only. No, I copy, Lisa. [00:20:07] Speaker D: Exactly. That was so blatant, Glenn. Huh? [00:20:10] Speaker C: Not other people. [00:20:11] Speaker B: No, that's right. You. You copied her every single time. Every throat out of three. [00:20:17] Speaker C: No, she copied me the first time. Wait a minute. [00:20:21] Speaker B: Anyway, Kristen, what do you think? [00:20:23] Speaker E: 75. [00:20:24] Speaker B: Norm always blows my cover because you're a fake. You're really pitiful. You're a pitiful human being. Sid, what do you think? [00:20:34] Speaker G: I'll say 78. [00:20:36] Speaker B: 78. And, Aaron, what do you think? [00:20:39] Speaker F: Well, I met John Merrill aboard the Calypso when we were looking for the piano tuna outside of the Mediterranean. [00:20:45] Speaker B: What I think I'm getting. I think I'm going to throw up. [00:20:49] Speaker F: And she was 74. [00:20:51] Speaker B: 74 years old, you say? Did you do that? Okay, well, I will not tell you her real age. [00:20:59] Speaker E: Say. [00:20:59] Speaker C: Wait. [00:20:59] Speaker E: You forgot about me. [00:21:00] Speaker B: Pardon me? [00:21:01] Speaker E: You forgot about me. [00:21:02] Speaker B: Oh, I did forget about you, Michael. I'm sorry. How old do you think? [00:21:07] Speaker E: 77. [00:21:08] Speaker B: 77. [00:21:09] Speaker D: That. [00:21:09] Speaker B: What you said 77. She is actually. She's actually 66. [00:21:19] Speaker D: Oh, geez. Sorry, Carrie. [00:21:21] Speaker B: 66. [00:21:22] Speaker D: I had no idea. [00:21:23] Speaker B: That means that Glenn and Lisa are the two winners. They both have three apiece. They're both. [00:21:30] Speaker D: You fooled me again, Norm. You wouldn't. I'll tell you, she's not a newcomer. You make a sound like she's about 87. [00:21:37] Speaker B: Well, stage. [00:21:39] Speaker D: Stage and screen. You figure Stage. [00:21:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:21:41] Speaker D: You know, you're gonna be about 70 something. Always. Always fooling me. [00:21:46] Speaker B: You're. You're. [00:21:46] Speaker D: You're a kidder. [00:21:47] Speaker B: You know, you're rationalizing. [00:21:49] Speaker C: So you did that to me last summer. [00:21:51] Speaker B: No, when I say she's not a newcomer, 66 is done. Or 66 is not a newcomer, it. [00:21:56] Speaker D: Goes in the same thing as when you say, you know, this is one of my heroes. So your figure Wolf was one of your heroes. They're gonna be at least 10 years older. And some of your heroes are younger than you are. You're always confused by that. [00:22:05] Speaker B: That's right. A lot of my heroes are younger than I am. So you can't tell by that. [00:22:11] Speaker D: I know. I've learned my lesson now. I've learned my lesson about this. She's not a newcomer. She's 12. [00:22:18] Speaker B: Okay, here's the. Apply that knowledge now to this guest. This is Richard Anderson. [00:22:24] Speaker F: Everybody copy Lisa now. [00:22:28] Speaker B: Or Glenn, who's copying Lisa anyway, because Lisa's cheating. [00:22:32] Speaker D: She's got three. [00:22:32] Speaker E: Four. [00:22:33] Speaker D: How many. [00:22:33] Speaker B: She's got three out of three. Okay. Richard Anderson is with MacGyver. [00:22:39] Speaker D: Richard Dean Anderson, Right? [00:22:41] Speaker B: Same guy? I don't know. I just. I just have Richard Anderson. Dean is his middle name. Richard Dean Anderson. That's what I'm in Minneapolis, Minnesota. That guy. [00:22:49] Speaker F: Is he the MacGyver? Is he the guy that plays the character MacGyver? [00:22:52] Speaker B: No, he's TVs. Yeah, he's TVs MacGyver. And he's been MacGyver for seven seasons now. [00:22:57] Speaker F: Oh, he was Jeff on General Hospital before that. [00:23:00] Speaker B: Oh, was he? [00:23:01] Speaker D: Was he? [00:23:01] Speaker B: Yeah. I didn't know that. [00:23:02] Speaker D: And we're getting a little more into the life of Aaron by knowing that he knew that he was Jeff on General Hospital. [00:23:10] Speaker B: And he was. And on and on a brighter day, he was married. And that's why he keeps working, because he's. He's very versatile. [00:23:20] Speaker D: I love the way they say he was TV's MacGyver. Like, there was a movie MacGyver. [00:23:26] Speaker B: Radio. [00:23:26] Speaker D: Yeah, or radio. [00:23:28] Speaker B: I think he's a. [00:23:29] Speaker G: He was a piano tuner in there someplace, too. [00:23:32] Speaker B: Now. Now you're cutting into Glenn's territory, actually. [00:23:34] Speaker D: The Life of Aaron, that was a. [00:23:36] Speaker C: Soap opera that took place in an Irish pub. The pride of Aaron. [00:23:38] Speaker G: Oh, here we go. [00:23:40] Speaker B: Okay, Aaron. Aaron, I want to start with you this time. Richard Anderson. How old would you say he is? [00:23:47] Speaker F: I would have to say with my infinite knowledge that he's 40. [00:23:51] Speaker B: With your infinite knowledge. 40. Okay. And Michael, what do you think? [00:23:57] Speaker E: 49. [00:23:59] Speaker B: Michael says 49. And Glenn says, I never heard of him. [00:24:04] Speaker C: So I gotta think back. [00:24:05] Speaker B: I know I did call on Lisa first, so you can't copy her. [00:24:11] Speaker C: See, when was MacGyver popular? [00:24:14] Speaker B: MacGyver was popular around the time. [00:24:17] Speaker D: Last show. Two years ago was the last show. [00:24:18] Speaker B: Oh, I was going to say around the turn of the century. He was on for seven seasons. Was it up to about a year or two ago? [00:24:25] Speaker D: Yeah, it's about two years ago. [00:24:28] Speaker C: So seven seasons with what? [00:24:30] Speaker B: 81. [00:24:31] Speaker D: No, no, that would be 88. Carry the two square root three, Divide by PI. [00:24:43] Speaker C: I'm gonna make him my age. 41. [00:24:45] Speaker B: 41 years old. [00:24:46] Speaker D: I don't know why, but. [00:24:48] Speaker B: We don't know why either, Glenn. But we don't even care. We don't even care why. [00:24:53] Speaker G: We don't need to know. [00:24:54] Speaker B: Yeah, we. If we. If we needed to know, we'll. We'll call you. I know Bruce Conley has all his help. [00:24:59] Speaker C: That's all I am. [00:25:01] Speaker B: Okay, Sid, what do you think the age of Richard Anders? [00:25:10] Speaker D: You're speaking to his cardboard cutout. That's why you're not hearing. [00:25:15] Speaker B: Yeah, the mouth is moving, but it is kind of. [00:25:19] Speaker G: Something happened there. 37. [00:25:22] Speaker B: 37. Okay. And Kristen, what do you say? [00:25:26] Speaker E: I think he's 43. [00:25:28] Speaker B: 43. Okay. And Aaron? No, I just got Aaron. 40. Lisa, what do you say? [00:25:36] Speaker H: I'll give him 39. [00:25:38] Speaker B: Oh, did you see? She's no around and she's not heard. You see all of this? 39. Is that what you say? [00:25:49] Speaker H: That's what I say. [00:25:51] Speaker D: Okay, now you know who he was trying to do an impression of. [00:25:56] Speaker B: Lisa, don't embarrass me because she won't know. [00:25:59] Speaker H: I don't know. No, I have to admit. [00:26:02] Speaker B: Now cut that out. Okay, Carrie, what do you think? [00:26:07] Speaker E: I think I'll go with my friend Kristen and say 43. [00:26:11] Speaker B: 43 is with Christina. Okay. And Tony, what do you think? [00:26:16] Speaker D: Now, I know it's going to seem like I'm going with Lisa, but I really thought this because I wanted to hear your Jack Benny imitation. [00:26:23] Speaker B: Oh, is that who that was? [00:26:25] Speaker D: 39. [00:26:26] Speaker B: 39. Now, Lisa, did you ever hear. You know of Jack Benny? [00:26:34] Speaker H: Yes. [00:26:36] Speaker D: Does he sound like him? No. [00:26:40] Speaker B: With all of this, I forgot what you said. You said 39. Oh, that's right, 39. Of course you said 30. [00:26:46] Speaker C: That's the start of the whole thing. [00:26:47] Speaker B: Yeah, that's right. That was. That's the whole stick, isn't it? [00:26:50] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:26:50] Speaker B: Richard Anderson actually is 44. [00:26:52] Speaker H: Oh. [00:26:53] Speaker B: Oh. So that means we have winners by. By. By Carrie and Kristen, both. Who said 43? [00:27:00] Speaker F: Norm. Norm. No lie. Right after Lisa gave her guess, she singled to me to say 44. Don't lie. [00:27:07] Speaker B: I really, really. I'm sorry. [00:27:09] Speaker F: She's gloating now. [00:27:10] Speaker B: She's like, well, she should have stuck with her. [00:27:12] Speaker A: I'm not. [00:27:12] Speaker H: I'm not. [00:27:13] Speaker D: What's the matter? Read the wrong age. Lisa. [00:27:18] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:27:18] Speaker B: Your finger slipped. I wish. [00:27:23] Speaker C: I had a tape of the scene copied it down. [00:27:26] Speaker B: Okay. Okay, so far we have Lisa still and Glenn still leading three apiece, but we have some people close behind. Michael has two, and Carrie has two and one apiece from Kristen and Tony. As we go to Chita river, how. [00:27:47] Speaker D: Many does Aaron have? [00:27:49] Speaker B: Aaron? Yeah, Aaron. [00:27:53] Speaker D: I thought you left somebody's name off. I just wasn't sure. [00:27:55] Speaker B: That's right. I left Aaron. I also left Sid Whitaker's name because neither one of them have anything. [00:28:00] Speaker F: I have a reason. I'm taken aback by. By Lisa's extreme beauty, and my mind just isn't functioning the way it should be. [00:28:08] Speaker B: Aaron. Oh, that's a cop. Oh, Aaron, that is so sweet. The way he said, who cares if it's a copper? That's. That's what this country needs. [00:28:15] Speaker D: More. [00:28:16] Speaker B: More love. More love. You know? I mean, that's. That's much more tender than, say, a drive by shooting. Okay. Cheetah Rivera appeared in the movie Sweet Charity, and she was on the Dick Van Dyke show in the 70s. Oh, I don't remember that. In 1993. [00:28:35] Speaker D: What was she on in the 70s? I'm sorry. [00:28:37] Speaker B: It says the Dick. Dick Van Dyke Show. But recently, this past year, she won a Tony for Kiss of the Spider Woman. I think. I think she was. Wasn't she also in west side Story? Was that Cheetah Rivera? [00:28:53] Speaker D: That was. Oh, I. I went black. [00:28:57] Speaker C: What was her name? [00:28:58] Speaker D: It wasn't Cheetah. [00:29:01] Speaker B: I know you mean. No, another woman who I adore. Moreno. [00:29:08] Speaker D: Moreno. [00:29:11] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:29:11] Speaker D: Moreno. [00:29:12] Speaker B: Moreno. [00:29:12] Speaker D: Yeah. Okay. [00:29:13] Speaker B: That's right. She was okay. Is that Charo? No, no, no, no. Somebody totally different. [00:29:18] Speaker D: Is that Geraldo? No, no, no. [00:29:24] Speaker B: Cheetah Rivera. Okay, let's start with you, Aaron. Oh, great. Cheetah Rivera. Cheetah Rivera. River. [00:29:36] Speaker C: 51. [00:29:37] Speaker B: 51. Okay. And Michael, what do you say? Michael says 50 and. Oh, you said 60. [00:29:47] Speaker E: Yes. [00:29:47] Speaker B: Okay. And Sid, what do you think? [00:29:52] Speaker G: 53. [00:29:54] Speaker B: 53. And Lisa, what do you say? [00:29:58] Speaker H: 53. [00:29:59] Speaker B: 63 says Lisa. And Glenn, the birthday boy, how old is Cheetah Rivera? [00:30:08] Speaker F: Why even ask him? [00:30:11] Speaker C: Am I allowed to say 63? I don't even know. [00:30:14] Speaker B: You can say anything you want. You want to copy Lisa? Can I? Is that what you're saying? [00:30:19] Speaker C: Yeah, because I don't know. I. I vaguely remember her in Dick Van Dyke, but that was not one of my favorite shows. [00:30:23] Speaker D: What did she. What was she on? What did she do on Dick Van Dyke? [00:30:26] Speaker B: I don't remember. Remember? I Don't remember. I see. I see that. [00:30:29] Speaker D: I mean, they have it down. There's one of our credits. [00:30:31] Speaker B: I know. I see Nick at night a lot. Which has the Dick Van Dyke show with Mary Tyler more and Dick Van Dyke and all that, and. But I never. I don't recall seeing her. So I don't know. But anyway, she was. [00:30:45] Speaker D: Maybe she was cameras or something. [00:30:47] Speaker B: Maybe she was who? [00:30:48] Speaker D: Cameras or something. [00:30:49] Speaker B: Maybe she was makeup. [00:30:51] Speaker F: I don't know. [00:30:52] Speaker B: That's right. Nobody said she was. [00:30:53] Speaker D: Exactly. [00:30:54] Speaker B: She may not have been right on camera. That's true. She may have been behind the camera. [00:30:58] Speaker D: Choreography, probably. [00:30:59] Speaker B: Or she may have sold insurance to the cast. Ever notice that in credits and movies now, they put everything there. Caterer, guy who sold insurance. Gaffer. Well, gaffer is part of it. That's, you know, part of the electrical system or some kind of technical stuff. But I don't. I don't care to know who brought them glazed donuts, for example, on a set. I don't see why that name has to be in the credits. I really don't. And I resent it. I'm sorry. I'm getting steamed up again. Tony, what do you think? How old is Cheetah Rivera? [00:31:37] Speaker D: She's pushing 53. [00:31:40] Speaker B: 53? [00:31:41] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:31:41] Speaker B: Pushing 50. [00:31:42] Speaker D: Pushing 53. [00:31:43] Speaker B: Pushing 53. Okay, Kristen, 56. Kristen says 56. [00:31:49] Speaker D: Completely lost her faith in me. She's just guessing. [00:31:52] Speaker B: Wild. Yeah. And Carrie, what do you say? [00:31:58] Speaker E: I think 57. [00:32:00] Speaker B: Carrie says 57 in her sweet voice. Say that. Say that again. [00:32:05] Speaker E: Carrie, 57. [00:32:08] Speaker B: Isn't that sweet? That's a sweet voice. [00:32:10] Speaker C: Okay, remember the earphones? [00:32:12] Speaker B: Yes. [00:32:13] Speaker E: Were you watching. You were talking about the farm earlier. [00:32:16] Speaker B: About the farm? [00:32:17] Speaker E: Yeah, the movie. [00:32:18] Speaker D: The farm. [00:32:19] Speaker B: Oh, the firm. Yes. Yes. [00:32:21] Speaker E: Well, I was watching that earlier tonight. [00:32:25] Speaker B: Did you like. [00:32:28] Speaker E: Was hard to follow. [00:32:29] Speaker B: It really is. And after. After you. After you finish seeing the movie. When the movie ends. But I remember seeing in a movie theater, by the time I filed out of the movie, I guess I couldn't file out. Can one person file? Anyway, I left the theater. By the time I got outside in the parking lot, I couldn't remember what the movie was about. I kind of enjoyed it. Had a lot of fast action. But it's one of those things that doesn't stick with you. It's like a Chinese dinner. Thank you. 20 minutes later, you want to go back and see the movie again to try to remember what it was you saw. But you want to know about chita Rivera. She's 61. 61 now. I think I Think we got another winner. Lisa and Glenn, I think. No, no, no, no, no. Wait, wait, wait. You're right. It's Michael. Michael said 60. [00:33:14] Speaker D: Hey, Mike. [00:33:15] Speaker B: Mike. You're right, Mike. I'm sorry. You're right. And that means we have a three way tie there with Glenn, Michael and Lisa. Boy, this is really getting exciting, isn't it? [00:33:26] Speaker C: I was going to change my inch. [00:33:27] Speaker B: Oh, we don't care what you. Look, I was gonna change my answer. Nobody believes you, Glenn. I know it's your birthday. We should believe you, at least on your birthday. But I don't believe you when it's not your birthday. So right now. [00:33:41] Speaker C: Well, you've poisoned everybody against me. [00:33:44] Speaker D: Oh, no, no. I was always against you. [00:33:47] Speaker B: No. Everybody's gonna get you from the very beginning. [00:33:50] Speaker F: He sounds an awful lot like the weatherman. [00:33:53] Speaker D: Mr. Personality. [00:33:54] Speaker B: That's what I was gonna say. I was going to say an invasion of poisonous frogs and heavy, heavy dew. I was going to say that it's my weather. I'm not just saying now because it turned out that way. [00:34:05] Speaker E: Who's my child? [00:34:07] Speaker B: Okay, Jerry Kramer, we'll just ignore anything you're going to say. Glenn, just because it's your birthday, we don't have to be kind to you. [00:34:14] Speaker C: You know, I never heard of Mike Johnson. [00:34:16] Speaker B: You never heard of who? [00:34:17] Speaker D: Frank Johnson. Frank Johnson. [00:34:19] Speaker C: Frank Johnson. [00:34:19] Speaker B: Well, Frank Johnson is our meteorologist. He's 13 years old. That's all they have to be to be a meteorologist these days. Jerry Kramer. Jerry Kramer. [00:34:30] Speaker D: You have got some names on this list. [00:34:32] Speaker B: Yeah, Jerry Kramer played a few years back for the Green Bay Packers. And he was one of the first football players to write a book which I read called this is Instant Replay was one. It was a lovely book. I remember reading that. I enjoyed that. And then later on he wrote a book called Distant Replay. And I think he wrote something else too. But he's one of the first players to write a literate book about what it was like to be in big time football. He played under Vince Lombardi when Vince Lombardi was the coach of the Green Bay Packers. Jerry Kramer, I remember him more as an author than I do as a ball player. That's. Anyway, that's Jerry Kramer. He wrote the book. I don't have any dates on that either. But the book came out, I say in the 70s anyway. Maybe the 70s, maybe the 60s, 70s, something like that. Does that help at all? [00:35:26] Speaker D: Which book? Instant Edition. [00:35:28] Speaker B: Instant Replay was the first one and there was a whole batch of books. Remember the knuckleballer for the Red Sox. What was his name? Who wrote a book also? Bill Lee, I think. No, not Bill Lee. Fidric. No, I can't think of his name. Isn't that awful? But a lot of people were angry because he would tell the inside story of what it was like in the locker room, what it was like in the. In the dugout while they were looking through the stands to see what pretty ladies were sitting up in the stands and all. And a little behind the scenes thing, what it was like to be on the road with married guys who were chasing. Cheating on their wives. [00:36:06] Speaker D: How much has changed? [00:36:08] Speaker B: No, no, but, but they were the first actually. This was the first guy to actually write like that and reveal all this. And I think nobody in baseball who's still playing or whatever ever wanted to talk to him ever again. I can't think of who that was. [00:36:22] Speaker D: Why don't you write a book like that? [00:36:23] Speaker B: I am. I'm writing one right now. About radio. [00:36:26] Speaker F: Yeah. [00:36:26] Speaker B: And I get. I get plenty of. [00:36:28] Speaker C: Am I any book. [00:36:29] Speaker B: It'll be a shocking. [00:36:30] Speaker D: You got a lot of dirt, don't you? [00:36:31] Speaker B: No. I was going to put you in the book, Glenn, but then I began yawning when I got to your part. So I figured, what the heck. [00:36:37] Speaker D: Your book will shake and rock the broadcasting world, won't it? [00:36:41] Speaker B: The LA earthquake. It won't be the same ever again as I reveal what really goes on behind the scenes in a shocking expose. [00:36:51] Speaker F: And I want an autographed copy. [00:36:53] Speaker B: Okay. [00:36:55] Speaker D: Even though you are in it. No. And he reveals all. [00:36:58] Speaker B: As long as you're paper, there'll be no freebie. Books passed Hudson. Oh, I'll pay you for it, of course. Okay. Okay, let's start with. Let's see. Let's start with Carrie. How old is Jerry Kramer? [00:37:10] Speaker E: I think 57. [00:37:13] Speaker B: 57, okay. And Glenn, what do you think? [00:37:17] Speaker C: 51. [00:37:19] Speaker B: I was scared there, the way I phrased that. What do you think? I thought he was going to really tell me. I did tell you. [00:37:26] Speaker C: 51. [00:37:27] Speaker B: Okay, Tony, what do you say? [00:37:33] Speaker D: So he had already retired before he wrote the book. [00:37:36] Speaker B: That's correct. [00:37:38] Speaker D: You think it came out in the 70s or the 60s, huh? [00:37:41] Speaker B: I think this. I'd say the 70s. [00:37:43] Speaker D: I'm trying to remember what were the Vince Lombardi years. And I'm not well versed in that, so. [00:37:49] Speaker C: 54. [00:37:53] Speaker B: Okay. [00:37:53] Speaker D: No, no, no, he's not 50. [00:37:54] Speaker B: No, not 54. [00:37:56] Speaker D: What did Kerry say? [00:37:58] Speaker B: Kerry said 57. [00:38:00] Speaker D: 56. [00:38:03] Speaker B: Very good. It was. It was. I believe it was Vince Lombardi who Said, show me a man who plays his guts out for his team. [00:38:13] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:38:14] Speaker B: And I'll show you an Adam's apple. [00:38:19] Speaker C: Did he have a princess? [00:38:21] Speaker B: Romania. He had the. He knew my grand. My great. My Hungarian gypsy princess. Grandmother. [00:38:27] Speaker F: Hungarian gypsy princess. [00:38:29] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. [00:38:31] Speaker D: Please, can you. Can you grace us, please, with another one of her. Wonderful. [00:38:35] Speaker B: Another one of her. [00:38:36] Speaker F: Wonderful. [00:38:37] Speaker B: Please? [00:38:37] Speaker D: Yes. [00:38:38] Speaker B: Okay. Let me just. [00:38:39] Speaker D: I always find this most fascinating. She was an incredible lady. [00:38:42] Speaker B: Oh, she was. She was something. Yeah. [00:38:44] Speaker D: She was not. [00:38:44] Speaker B: Yeah, well, she was kind of strange. But she had some great sayings that I think that we all lived by and I still live by to this day. She'd say, show me a man who cares about his country and his flag. Yeah. And I'll show you some buttered toast. That was one of the better ones of hers that you was. Ready? Yeah, that was. [00:39:11] Speaker D: I haven't heard that one yet. [00:39:12] Speaker B: Yeah. No, she. She put life in perspective. She was something. Hey, Lisa, how old do you think Jerry Kramer is? Or my grandmother, whichever comes first. [00:39:22] Speaker H: I think he's 60. [00:39:24] Speaker B: 60. We're having fun, aren't we, Lisa? [00:39:26] Speaker H: We are. This is great. [00:39:27] Speaker B: Yeah. You'll end up doing, like, the Jerry the David Brudnoy Show. That won't be any fun for you at all. [00:39:33] Speaker H: No, I'm not leaving you, Norm. I won't. [00:39:35] Speaker B: Don't ever leave me. Don't ever leave me. Okay. I'll make it worth your while. Do you like baubles and bangles and things? The fake jewelry. It's yours, honey. [00:39:49] Speaker F: I noticed the car she drove in and she could use a new Hyundai. [00:39:54] Speaker B: Hyundai. Just go to your favorite dealer and pick it out. Send me the bill and it's yours. But I will not pay for the undercoating. Have a thing about that. Kristen, how old is Jerry Craver? You're laughing at what I said Makes no sense at all. This whole program makes no sense. You want to know the truth? WBZ makes no sense. [00:40:23] Speaker D: How do you stay on the air week after week? [00:40:27] Speaker B: They don't listen. They don't. They don't even know I'm here. I'm here. You understand that? Who's that? General manager. [00:40:38] Speaker D: Ed Goldman. [00:40:39] Speaker B: Ed Goldman. Ed Goldman. I'm here. Why don't you hear me? Damn you. Okay, now you won't hear that. [00:40:49] Speaker F: Norm. Norm, you not only are a supreme broadcaster but, I gotta tell you, the only broadcaster that can get away with half the things you do. All the power to you. [00:40:59] Speaker D: The other half that we still don't know about. [00:41:01] Speaker B: Exactly. Nobody. Nobody knows about it you think I would have at least made Dean Johnson's column by now, but nothing. Nothing happens. [00:41:10] Speaker D: Maybe even the track once in a while. [00:41:13] Speaker B: I know. [00:41:13] Speaker F: All you got to do is run around in a Santa suit and you'll be all set. [00:41:18] Speaker B: Okay. Anyway, Kristen, how old is Jerry Kramer? As though we really care. I'm sorry. 65. Oh, 55. Okay. Michael, what do you say? [00:41:30] Speaker E: 55. [00:41:31] Speaker B: You say 55 also. [00:41:32] Speaker D: That's the one. [00:41:33] Speaker B: Okay. [00:41:33] Speaker G: And Sid, I'll have to say 57. [00:41:38] Speaker B: You'll have to say 57. And you better say it or we'll break your nose. That's right. Okay. Or else. Aaron, what do you think? [00:41:46] Speaker F: I think. [00:41:49] Speaker B: 50 were you doing? Were you doing butthead that there or whatever. [00:41:54] Speaker D: Certainly was. [00:41:55] Speaker B: That was very nice though, you know, so hip I am, despite the fact that I'm an older gentleman. [00:41:59] Speaker D: Have you finally watched one, Norm? [00:42:01] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, I've seen them. I've seen them. Yeah. I just think they're very unfunny. [00:42:04] Speaker D: Okay. [00:42:05] Speaker B: You know. No, I mean, really do. Obviously I'm running into opposition on that feeling. [00:42:11] Speaker F: They're a perfect reflection of today's youth. Perfect. [00:42:15] Speaker D: Which makes it probably more scary than funny. [00:42:18] Speaker B: I know it. Yeah. Which obviously has no sense of humor. Jerry Kramer is 58, by the way. And that means that Carrie said it said 57 and Sid said 57. All right. And so there they go. That means we've got about a 73 way tie. [00:42:35] Speaker D: You got prizes for automail out. [00:42:37] Speaker B: No, Glenn. Let me see. Glenn, Michael, Carrie and Lisa all have three wins and we get very close to 4o'. [00:42:49] Speaker A: Clock. [00:42:49] Speaker B: I believe we'll do just one. [00:42:50] Speaker D: Let's carry it over. What the hell? [00:42:52] Speaker H: Tiebreaker. [00:42:53] Speaker A: Tiebreaker. [00:42:53] Speaker B: Okay. Casablanca, the movie. This is a year now. The Academy Award winning film, Casablanca premiered this year. It starred Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, you know, the character acts, Peter Laurie, Claude Ranch, Cindy. Green street nearly starred Ronald Reagan and Anne Sheridan. They were the first choices apparently. But anyway, what year was that? And the premiere was on January 23rd, which is today's date. But what was the year? Glenn, what do you think? [00:43:23] Speaker C: Part of me wants to say 1942 and the other one say 39. [00:43:28] Speaker B: Well, you say whatever. [00:43:29] Speaker D: Don't worry about it. They're both wrong. [00:43:31] Speaker C: No, one of them. [00:43:32] Speaker D: Right. [00:43:32] Speaker B: Okay, then we better go quickly because we have got very tight for time now. [00:43:36] Speaker C: How about 1941? [00:43:38] Speaker B: 1941. Okay. Michael, what do you think? When was. When. When was the Casablanca premiered? [00:43:44] Speaker E: 43. [00:43:45] Speaker B: 1943. Okay. Carrie. [00:43:51] Speaker E: 1945. [00:43:53] Speaker B: 1945. Did I mention you also had three wins. I don't know what I said there. Kristen, what do you think? [00:44:00] Speaker E: 1939. [00:44:01] Speaker B: 1939. And Tony. [00:44:04] Speaker D: 44. [00:44:05] Speaker B: 1944. And Aaron. [00:44:09] Speaker F: 1939. [00:44:11] Speaker B: 1939. Okay. And Lisa? [00:44:16] Speaker H: 1940. [00:44:17] Speaker B: 1940. And what do you say, Sid? [00:44:19] Speaker G: 1944. [00:44:20] Speaker B: 1944. The year was 1943. [00:44:23] Speaker D: Oh, this was the 50th year. Last year was. Oh, geez. [00:44:30] Speaker B: That means that the Michael who has now got four wins, he is the winner of all of this. [00:44:35] Speaker D: We broke the tie. That's all that matters. [00:44:36] Speaker B: That's right. We broke the tie. Michael, you're going to get a useless, worthless, tacky nothing kind of prize that'll end up in your flea market tomorrow. No, not tomorrow because I won't even get it out to you till sometime this coming week. So thank you all for playing. I got to get rid of you quickly because we're coming up to the news. Glenn, happy birthday. [00:44:56] Speaker C: Yeah, thanks. [00:45:00] Speaker B: Enthusiasm there was. Huh? [00:45:02] Speaker H: Boy, that. [00:45:02] Speaker B: That make you. That makes the adrenaline. He's got. The adrenaline's really flowing. Michael, Michael, hold on. We're going to. Here's, here's. Sid is going to take your name and address and stuff so we can send the ry Methem prize out to you. You which you'll hate. Okay. And Carrie. Oh, I just hung up on Carrie. I'm sorry. Carrie. Thank you anyway for playing the game. You too, Kristen. [00:45:25] Speaker E: Okay. [00:45:26] Speaker B: Okay, thank you. And both you guys, Aaron Sawyer and Lisa Reichman. We'll talk you in a little bit. Oh, it's news time. Bye. Bye. WBZ Boston. [00:45:38] Speaker A: Nice save by Norm getting the station id and just as the news was starting to ever the professional. And who knew that Vince Lombardi was a close friend of Norm's Hungarian gypsy princess grandmother. Both were wise beyond their years and totally certifiable. The worst month of the year is nearly complete and it's living up to my reasons for despising it. At least here in frigid, snowy New England. Curse you, January. We are one month closer to spring with February staring down at us. The I'll see you then. Closing the vault and leaving this world a little sillier than we found it for the long defunct osteopathic hospital in Cranston, Rhode Island. Staying up late, falling in love with the new traffic lady. Windchill factors, obscene letter writing geezers. Paul Benzoquin optical illusions. Expecting more but getting nothingness. The sounds of calculating cardboard cutouts. Glenn's steel trap memory. Getting a life too fat to fly. Princes and princesses Demographics. That WHDH ad about WBZ being full of coke. Norm speaking French. MacGyver, Cheetah, Rita, Charo and Geraldo. Movie credits. One person filing out, hating on Glenn. Poisonous frogs and heavy. Do tell all sportsbooks. Norm's expose on radio that shocked the broadcast industry. Vince Lombardi, our Hungarian gypsy princess grandmother. Bobbles and Bangles not paying for the undercoating. Former WBZ GM Ed Goldman. Dean Johnson, 55, that's the limit. Beavis and Butthead. Incorrect. Birthday guest Payne, that cheating first timer Lisa Reichwine. The soap opera addict Aaron Sawyer. The corrugated Sid Whitaker. And the man I'm pointing at over there just to the left of center in the back, Norm Nathan. I'm former producer par excellence and radio psychic Tony Nesbitt. [00:47:53] Speaker B: This whole program makes no sense. If you want to know the truth. WBZ makes no sense. [00:48:01] Speaker D: How do you stay on the air week after week? [00:48:05] Speaker B: They don't listen. They don't. They don't even know I'm here. I'm here. You understand that? Who's that? General manager. [00:48:15] Speaker D: He said Ed Goldman. [00:48:17] Speaker B: Ed Goldman. Ed Goldman. I'm here. Why don't you hear me? Damn you.
