[00:00:00] Speaker A: Is it warming up where you are? The month of May here in Massachusetts continues. The New England bipolar spring we've been enduring.

Episode 288, the Flirting Frenzy circles like a frenzy, like a shot circles its way to your ears. In 3, 2, and 1. [00:01:04] Speaker B: Traffic reporter Peter James. How you doing, Peter? [00:01:08] Speaker C: I'm all right, Norm. How you doing? [00:01:09] Speaker B: I'm doing okay. You don't sound like you're all right. You sound kind of. Kind of glum when you say, are you hitting the microphone and jumping around? [00:01:15] Speaker C: Sorry, I was just on the other side of the room gathering some interesting traffic information. Pay too much attention. [00:01:21] Speaker B: It's kind of. It's kind of funny. Like, I was in the supermarket the other day, which is a stupid line because everybody's in a supermarket the other day. But you know how when they. When they. They run the, the products across this little, little electronic thing, it makes a beep sound. [00:01:38] Speaker D: Beep, beep. [00:01:39] Speaker B: So I remember asking the lady, the, the cashier, do you hear these things at night when you go home? That beeping sound must haunt you. And she looked at me. I mean, she didn't find any humor in that comment at all, and said, no, I don't. And that was the end of that. And I thought, why did I bring that up? [00:01:59] Speaker C: Sounds like a touchy subject for her. [00:02:00] Speaker B: Well, yeah, she didn't seem to think it was kind of. Kind of funny. I don't know. And maybe. Maybe you don't think it's funny for me to wonder about streets in any event. In any event what? In any event, I don't know. I don't know what I was leading up to with that. [00:02:17] Speaker C: You know what I just noticed about the WBZ employees here, Norm? [00:02:20] Speaker B: Yes. [00:02:20] Speaker C: We all have first names as our last names. Myself, Peter James, yourself, Norm Nathan, and your producer, Tom Howey. [00:02:30] Speaker B: That's. That's true. Isn't all. [00:02:31] Speaker C: Got two first names. [00:02:32] Speaker B: That's right too. The people ever call you James Peters or something like that? [00:02:36] Speaker C: Sometimes they look at my. My ID and think it's backwards. Why would mine be the only backwards one in the state? [00:02:42] Speaker B: Well, because they, they think that. You know why they do that? Because they're dumb. [00:02:46] Speaker C: I think it's James Peters or something like that. A lot of dumb people. [00:02:51] Speaker B: One of the first stations I worked at was WMEX in Boston, which was absolutely the worst station that was ever created on the face of the earth. You'd have to really go someplace in order to duplicate the ineptness of that. But in any event, there was a guy there named Nelson Norman. He left and I replaced him. So here I am, Norman Nathan. So naturally, and I was still using my full first name and, and so naturally everybody thought I was Nathan Norman replacing Nelson Norman. And it took, it must have taken a year and a half before I could get people to reverse my name. That long? Well, I may be exaggerating a little. It took quite a while, I would say. We had a sportscaster named Frank Fallon who was a sweetheart of a guy. He was on each night about 6:45 and, and we'd say, it's 6:45, it's time for Sports with Frank Fallon. Take it, Frank. The introduction would be that kind of corny thing each night. And he would say, thank you Nathan Norman, and good evening sports fans. And I used to hold up signs and I couldn't, it just, it somehow never registered. John Kiley, who played the organ over at Fenway park at that time, was program director and had an organ show and stuff, you know, if you can picture the excitement of that kind of a show. Anyway, he would, he would do the same thing. Thank you Nathan Norman, and good evening and hello organ fans or whatever it was he said. So it took a, took a while but. However, fortunately, before you became a traffic reporter here at wbz, we never had a James, a Fred Peter or something like that. Then you become James Peter. [00:04:36] Speaker C: Well, that's good. [00:04:38] Speaker B: You know who else we have? We have the other guy with the, with a reversible name. Tom Howey, our producer here, will be playing the game with us. Anybody ever called you Howie Thomas? [00:04:48] Speaker C: Actually, yeah, quite a few times. [00:04:49] Speaker B: Really? [00:04:50] Speaker C: I can recall, yes. [00:04:51] Speaker B: Now you spell, you spell Howie. H, O, W, E, E, H O, W, I, E. Oh, the same as the nickname. [00:04:58] Speaker C: The same as the nickname, yeah. [00:04:59] Speaker B: Because I have a, I have a brother in law named Howard. We call him Howie. Right, right. Here's a guy up in his 70s and we're calling him Howie. That always seems to be silly, but once you get a name it's hard to Change it. Hi, Howie. Hi. How are you doing? It was like there was a guy across the. I'm full of stories today. Do you mind that, Peter? [00:05:20] Speaker C: No, go right ahead. [00:05:21] Speaker B: Okay. There's a guy across the street named Freeman in Everett, where I grew up. Freeman Tucker, Jr. Freeman James Tucker Jr. And we called him Junior. People don't call kids Junior anymore, but they used to back then, if they were. And I'm wondering, is he still being called Junior somewhere? Because he'd be up in his 70s now, too. Hi, Junior. [00:05:44] Speaker D: Hi. [00:05:44] Speaker B: How are you doing? Do you know Howie? Anyway, that's my entire story, and that is pretty boring, so let's go to Frank. What is your last name? Frank? Yeah. [00:05:55] Speaker E: James, believe it or not. James? [00:05:58] Speaker B: Yeah. Are you serious? I'm serious. Your last name is James, Same as Peter. James. Right. [00:06:05] Speaker C: What a coincidence. [00:06:07] Speaker B: You're not. I have a feeling you're making that up. You're not making that up. I'm not. Okay. Anyway, it's nice to have you playing the dumb birthday game with us. Thank you for joining us tonight. My pleasure. Or this morning, whatever time of day it is. Okay, we'll get going in a minute. We'll talk with Laura, who is in Boston. Hello, Laura. [00:06:24] Speaker D: Hi, Norm. [00:06:26] Speaker B: Hi, Laura. I bet you can you hear me. I can hear you. Yeah. You really can. Oh, good. Yeah, I think it's good, too, because if I couldn't hear you, that would really be. We'd be in trouble. [00:06:38] Speaker E: Can you hear. [00:06:38] Speaker B: Can you hear me? [00:06:39] Speaker D: Oh, yes, I hear. I hear all of you. All the charming people. [00:06:44] Speaker B: Okay. [00:06:44] Speaker D: Wbc. [00:06:45] Speaker B: How's that sounds. That sounds flattering and phony. Have you ever played. [00:06:52] Speaker D: It was flattering, but it wasn't phony. [00:06:54] Speaker B: Have you ever played the dumberthe game with us before? [00:06:57] Speaker D: I played once before and I failed abysmally. [00:07:02] Speaker B: Not only did you fail, you mean, but you failed really rotten and awful and ashamedly. [00:07:08] Speaker D: Right. And at that point, I was really hoping that you could have a booby prize, you know? [00:07:14] Speaker B: No, but the main prizes are really are, like, booby prizes because it's all a bunch of junk that we send out. [00:07:20] Speaker D: And the funny thing is that when I don't play really on the air, when I just play, when I'm listening, I sort of do fine. But when it was for the real tomatoes or whatever you call it, I just. [00:07:35] Speaker B: It's a little tougher when you're actually doing it. [00:07:38] Speaker D: Right? I mean, the tension and the nervousness. [00:07:41] Speaker B: Where did you get the phone that you're using? Did you get some Second hand telephone store. [00:07:46] Speaker D: Well, you know, this is a real good phone. Evidently, you know, it's, you know, something general. I mean, Western Electric or, you know, a real, real good one. But it sounds like. Oh, you know what it is? I have a cold. [00:08:02] Speaker B: No, it's not. Don't say that. It's not the cold. The quality of the line is kind of. It's not very good. And it's not your voice. Your voice is just so beautiful. I think I'm falling in love. But it's the phone that's like, you [00:08:19] Speaker D: know, it's a Western Electric Bell system property. Not to fail. The trim line phone. But you know something? My line's been dead for two days. And this is a new line. So maybe the quality is not. It's. The line is getting put together. [00:08:38] Speaker B: Yeah, maybe. Maybe it has to be. See, you know as much about technical things as I do. I always talk like that, too. And maybe, you know what it has to be. It has to be ironed out and smoothed and they have to straighten stuff. I talk that way too, when I don't know what I'm talking about. [00:08:53] Speaker D: Well, I can't bore your audience, but the. [00:08:55] Speaker B: Yes, yes, you can. I've been doing that for 50 years now. [00:08:58] Speaker D: The nice news and the telephone company said that the way I can tell the next time when my line is going dead, which hasn't happened for 47 years, the thing was dated 1950 as the last time they ever came into this house to fix the phone line. And he said the next time I can tell is when I hear noise on the line. But I can't tell the difference between noise and quality. I mean, I never thought I was hearing noise on the line. But if you ever hear noise on the line, it means your phone line might be going. [00:09:35] Speaker B: Thank you. [00:09:35] Speaker D: Did you ever hear anything like that? [00:09:37] Speaker B: Never in my entire life. And I hope never to hear it again. So be quiet. No. Okay, let's see who else is. Let's see. Dave. Now, here's Jim calling from Pennsylvania. And I'll bet you his line is clearer than you're calling from Boston. Hi. Let's see, who am I talking. Oh, Jim. Yeah, hi. Yeah, hi. [00:09:57] Speaker E: I'm calling from Boston. [00:09:59] Speaker B: I'm from Pennsylvania, but I'm calling from Boston. Oh, you're actually in Boston now. Okay, now what are you doing in Boston? I'm visiting my sister. Okay. You grew up here in Boston? No, no, I grew up in Pennsylvania. Oh, I see. She moved up here. I came up to visit her. Oh, I See? Where in Pennsylvania are you from? Martinsburg. It's central part of the state, close to Altoona. Oh, yeah, we went through Altoona yesterday. But in fact, we're talking about the old vaudeville songs, mentioned my name in Altoona. It's the greatest little town in the world. Have you ever heard that song? You don't seem to be thrilled with my version of that at all, Jim. I'm really shocked. Okay, let's go to Evelyn in Quincy. Evelyn. Hi. [00:10:43] Speaker E: Hello. [00:10:45] Speaker B: Oh, my goodness. [00:10:47] Speaker E: Do you hear me? [00:10:48] Speaker B: Yes. [00:10:49] Speaker E: I want to say I love Peter. I love his voice. He got me all excited. [00:10:57] Speaker B: You want to say something sensuous to Evelyn, Peter? Just really. Just get the fire going in her loins. [00:11:03] Speaker E: I just like his voice. Another thing, Norm. I got the courage to call you this evening. I've been listening and wanting to call, and I have relatives in Littleton where you are. [00:11:18] Speaker B: Relatives? [00:11:18] Speaker E: Where in Littleton? [00:11:20] Speaker B: Yeah. That's not where I live. I live in Middleton, which is an M. Littleton is with an L. And that's not the same thing. [00:11:28] Speaker E: Another thing I want say to you. [00:11:30] Speaker B: Yes. [00:11:30] Speaker E: Is I let your program for one reason, is because it's light and not heavy. You know what I mean by that? [00:11:41] Speaker B: I know what you mean. You know. You know why it's a light program and not heavy? [00:11:46] Speaker E: Why? [00:11:46] Speaker B: Because I happen to be a stupid airhead. [00:11:48] Speaker E: Oh. I think you're out of this world. And I enjoy the people that you have on as. Yes. I just love him. And I know it's. I'm not going to listen to politics. You know what I mean? [00:12:03] Speaker B: I know what you mean. You mean you're not going to listen to politics. If I understand, if I translate what you say into a simpler language, I think that's what you mean. [00:12:11] Speaker D: That's. [00:12:12] Speaker E: I'm through. [00:12:13] Speaker B: Okay. [00:12:13] Speaker E: And I. I'm so happy to be on your program. [00:12:16] Speaker B: Okay. Well, I hope. I hope. Well, I can't say hope you win because that would be showing partisanship toward one person. [00:12:23] Speaker E: Right. [00:12:23] Speaker B: But I know you'll do well and [00:12:25] Speaker E: I know I. Quinn. [00:12:26] Speaker D: Quite. [00:12:26] Speaker E: You know Quincy, Mass. On the way down to Cape. [00:12:29] Speaker B: No, I never heard of Quincy. Where's that? Down to the way to the Cape. [00:12:32] Speaker E: I know where Quincy is. [00:12:34] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, I think I do. Yes. Yes. Peter, James would know better than I would because he knows. He knows every place around here. [00:12:40] Speaker E: Oh, okay. [00:12:42] Speaker B: Can we get out with a game? Evelyn, what do you think? Okay, here's what I do. I tell you who was born on this day. As I said, I give you a Little synopsis of their life and maybe some dates that would help you. You sort of identify their age, particularly if it's somebody you don't know too well. Today is the birthday of one of my favorite all time vocalist, Peggy Lee, who was born Norma Engstrom in Jamestown, North Dakota. Very few well known people have come from North Dakota. Let me finish my speech. Okay. Very few people have come from North Dakota. The only other one I can think of, a well known person would be Lawrence Welk. It's kind of a funny pairing. Lawrence Welkin, Peggy Lee. Anyway, her biggest record was Fever, and she recorded that in 1958. And again, I'm giving you these dates so you can kind of sort of hone in. In 19. Dream. She did Dreams in 1977. Wait a minute, I'm reading the wrong. I just. I reading about Stevie Nicks in that last one. No, her biggest record was fever. Peggy Lee, 1958. In 55, she was nominated for an Oscar in Pete Kelly's Blues. She sang with Benny Goodman's orchestra and married the band's guitar player, Dave Barber. In 1943. That was when I first began hearing about her, was about 40, 44, 45. She had a. A song called what More Can a Woman do, which was just magnificent and a few other things like that. She's been around for quite some time. No, that wasn't her. That was all right, that was Rosemary Clooney. But thank you very much. Hold back, Evelyn, till I get to you. Okay, thank you. Frank, what do you think? How old do you think Craigie Lee is? You kind of threw me off there now, but I. With that 1943 stuff. But I don't know, that may be where y'. All. Yeah, no, she was. She did. She did record as early as. As 44 anyway. Yes, 44, 45. I'd still say 78. Okay, and what do you think, Laura? [00:15:05] Speaker D: Well, I'm gonna try 81. [00:15:08] Speaker B: 81. Okay. Jim? 79. 79. And Evelyn, what do you think? [00:15:14] Speaker E: I'm going along with 79. [00:15:16] Speaker B: 79. Peter, what do you think? [00:15:18] Speaker C: I like the ring of 77. [00:15:21] Speaker B: I like the ring of 77. That sounds like a song title by itself, doesn't it? And Tom? 80. 80 sounds good to me. She said lung trouble for a long time. But the amazing thing is you would not know that listening to her because she sustains notes and everything. But she has oxygen in her dressing room. I don't know whether she's still performing publicly now or not, but she has until recently. And you know, would go back to her dressing room and fill her lungs with oxygen so she could come out and sing some more. But you could never tell that her singing was flawless. I always thought she was excellent. She's 76 years old today, by the way, and I think Peter, who said 77, is the closest? Let's see, nobody said 75. So Peter James wins that first round. Son of a gun. Just one year off. How about James Arness? U.S. marshal. U.S. marshal Matt Dillon. That's. We were talking about him earlier, too. Peter, James Arness. Let me see if I can find out something about him. He was born. He was born James Arnaz. I don't know why they put that in there. That's the name he uses now. In Minneapolis. A lumberjack, he was badly wounded in World War II. Played Matt Dillon on Gunsmoke. As everybody knows, John Wayne was offered the part, turned it down and recommended Arness. Arness began his career as a radio newscaster in Minneapolis. His brother, excuse me, is actor Peter Graves from Mission Impossible. I think Peter Graves was also in those silly movies and the funny movies because I enjoyed him, Airplane and some of those things. But anyway, that's Peter Graves. We're guessing the age of James Arness. What do you think, Tom? [00:17:19] Speaker C: Let's see, he was injured in World War II, so it's in the 40s. [00:17:24] Speaker B: So I'll say 76. 76. Okay. [00:17:29] Speaker C: Peter, what do you think about 77 again? [00:17:33] Speaker B: 77. Evelyn? [00:17:34] Speaker E: 75. [00:17:36] Speaker B: Evelyn says 75. Jim? 79. Okay. Laura? [00:17:41] Speaker D: I'm gonna say 78. [00:17:43] Speaker B: 78. And, Frank? 81. [00:17:46] Speaker E: Mark. [00:17:47] Speaker B: 81. Okay. Actually, 73. So he's pretty young when he was in World War II. 73. So the closest would be. Tom, who said 70? No, Evelyn said 75. So you'd be the closest. Evelyn. You were just two years off. That's pretty good. How about Brent Musburger, the sportscaster? Let's see what I can tell you about Brent Musburger. I guess I can't. Oh, yeah, here he is. ABC sports announcer from Portland, Oregon. That's all information. I can't tell you much more about him. Is he still active? Is he still reporting sports? Anybody know Brent Musburger? Not that I know of. [00:18:33] Speaker D: I know. [00:18:34] Speaker B: Do you? [00:18:34] Speaker D: Yes. [00:18:35] Speaker B: Is he still reporting? [00:18:37] Speaker D: You know, he was sort of unpleasantly fired or maybe pleasantly fired, and because he was asking for too much money. And now he back doing some sort of. On some television station, doing golf again. [00:18:53] Speaker B: Oh, really? Yes. Okay. An interesting name, Brent Musburger. [00:18:58] Speaker D: Right. And his Brother was his agent, and his brother was the one who advised him to ask for a lot more money, and then it was kaput. So he had a family problem there, I imagine. [00:19:09] Speaker B: Oh, I think so, yeah. When your agent tries to get more money for you and they fire you as a result, and the agent is your brother, even if the agent weren't your brother. A little bit of a problem there. That's kind of. That's kind of interesting. You think they would have negotiated and worked it out in some way. But anyway. How old anyway? Today is Brent Musburger's birthday, and let's start with you, Jim. What do you think? How old do you think he's 63. Okay. And Laura, what do you think? [00:19:39] Speaker D: I'd say 48. [00:19:41] Speaker B: 48. Okay, Peter, what do you say? [00:19:44] Speaker C: I'll say 56. [00:19:46] Speaker B: And what would you say, Tom? 59. And Evelyn? [00:19:51] Speaker E: 59. [00:19:52] Speaker B: 59, right. Okay, Frank? Yeah. 63. Now 63. Okay. Brent Musburger is 57. Let's see, Peter said 56. Nobody said 57. Nobody said 58. So Peter was within one year, and it's got that. Peter's got two and Evelyn has got one. You're doing okay, Uncle Peter. [00:20:22] Speaker C: I always get two of the first three. Right. And then I never get any more. [00:20:26] Speaker B: That's my problem. Well, we'll see. I wasn't. Maybe you're going to break out of that. [00:20:30] Speaker C: Hopefully. [00:20:31] Speaker B: Okay, Steve. Stevie Nicks, the singer with Fleetwood Mac. And in case the name isn't familiar, I suppose it doesn't matter, but she's a. It's a woman, not a man. Despite the name, their biggest hit, that Fleetwood Max Mac, the biggest hit his dreams in 1977. And it says here, years ago, she had lip suction. Oh, am I reading that wrong? No lipo Liposuction. [00:21:03] Speaker C: Right. [00:21:04] Speaker B: That means kind of sucking off the fat of your body and stuff. Doesn't that sound awful? Oh, that just sounds terrible. What do they do with that fat when they. When they suck it off? Do they melt it down and give it to cows or something for a richer milk away. Be ashamed just to throw it away. Or maybe they give it back to the patient. No, it's your lip. It's. You're fat. You're entitled to having it back. We put it in a little takeout doggy bag. You can take it home with you. The whole thing sounds kind of. Kind of silly anyway. Stevie Nicks, let's start with. Let's see, Laura, what do you think? [00:21:47] Speaker D: Oh, I'm gonna say body one. [00:21:49] Speaker B: Okay. And what are you going to say, Evelyn? [00:21:52] Speaker E: 50. [00:21:54] Speaker B: Evelyn's going to say 50. Okay. And Tom? 48. Tom says 48. Frank, what do you think? 44. Now 44. And Jim? 49. [00:22:07] Speaker C: And Peter 46. [00:22:10] Speaker B: 46. You're all pretty close. Actually. She's exactly the age that Tom Holly said. 48. 48 years old today. Son of a gun. She looks a lot younger than that because she has no fat. Oh, she actually has the fat, but [00:22:29] Speaker E: I'm not gonna say a word. [00:22:30] Speaker B: It's in a little containers on her pantry shelf. It's been sculpted, got a little label on the can. And she just wants to remember the way she was. Were something. Anyway, Sally Ride. Remember Dr. Sally, Kristen Ride, Sally K. Ride, the astronaut? Yeah, that's right. Astrophysicist. First American woman in space on board space shuttle Challenger. They were in space between June 18th and June 24th in 1983. See, so there's the clue there. 1983, she left the astronaut corps to take a position as scientist for her alma mater, Stanford University. She and astronaut Steve Hawley. Oh, this is so sad. Have divorced after a five year marriage. Oh, gee. Anyway, that's Sally Ride, who's very, very popular. Very well known at that time, I guess. Still is well known. And let's start with. Let's see, let's start with you, Evelyn. How old do you think Sally Ride is? [00:23:39] Speaker E: Well, right Now I'd say 37. [00:23:43] Speaker B: Right now you'd say 37? [00:23:44] Speaker E: Yeah, at the time I'd say 32. But 37 now time has gone on [00:23:51] Speaker B: and if I called you in about three hours, would it still be 37? [00:23:56] Speaker E: I'd love it. [00:23:59] Speaker B: What do you mean by that? [00:24:00] Speaker E: I'd love you to called me 37. [00:24:03] Speaker B: No, I wasn't. That was. Well, never mind.

I happen to be first choice for Michelle Pfeiffer and several other people. Yes. So you know, so I don't like being in second place. Thank God we're both living in a strange kind of world. Oh, 37.

Oh, please, please. The tension moments. Please let me win this round and I'll never do bad. I'll never sin again. A lot of people say that at this moment. Or a lot of people say, let me win this round and I'll just send my hat off. Send my hat off. What does that mean? I don't get that great expression. [00:27:17] Speaker C: I got to use that.

[00:28:25] Speaker B: What about other guys? Do they look at you and say, hey, good looking, what you doing? [00:28:30] Speaker E: They do, and I'll tell you why. Because I dress for the men and. Oh, I don't want to talk. Peter. Sounds wonderful. [00:28:41] Speaker B: Wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. What do you mean, you dress for the men? How was that? [00:28:49] Speaker E: I dress very nicely and. Well, that's beside the point. I. [00:28:56] Speaker B: You dress kind of in a. Provocatively. Provocatively. [00:28:59] Speaker E: I would say that I dress with class. With class and style and I have nice clothes. [00:29:05] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, that sounds. I'm getting excited myself. I don't know how Peter feels about this, but I'm kind of getting excited myself. [00:29:16] Speaker C: Well, I dress provocatively, too. [00:29:17] Speaker E: Well, Peter doesn't want me. I'll take you, John. I'm sorry. [00:29:24] Speaker B: What do you know? Peter said he dresses provocatively as well. [00:29:28] Speaker E: No, I did not say that. I. [00:29:31] Speaker B: No, he. I'm just kidding. [00:29:32] Speaker E: But I've got money, so I've got good clothes. You know what I mean? [00:29:36] Speaker B: I know what you mean. You mean you got good clothes. I think that's what you mean. I think I've translated that into simple terms. [00:29:44] Speaker E: I'm sorry. [00:29:45] Speaker B: No, you didn't say. You know what I'm saying. That's an expression I really hate. [00:29:49] Speaker E: Is this Peter talking to me? [00:29:51] Speaker B: No, this is not Peter. This is. This is Peter's father. [00:29:56] Speaker E: You know what, Norm? Yes, I'll keep quiet, but you're quite a wonderful gentleman. And I live alone, you know, and I've got a big home and so on. I live alone all by myself. And I listen to you every time you're on. Because what I told you before. You're light and not heavy. Okay, I'm sorry. [00:30:19] Speaker B: As a matter of fact, I've always wanted to live in Quincy. It's been my dream. And that's where you are, isn't it? Quincy. I remember. [00:30:30] Speaker E: All my life I've lived here. [00:30:32] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? Okay, let's. [00:30:36] Speaker E: I'm sorry. [00:30:37] Speaker B: No, that's okay. No, that's no, that's okay, Evelyn. That's okay. Just stop throwing yourself at my feet. Bobcat Goldthwaite. I love saying his name. It sort of cleans out the bridge of my teeth. Goldthwaite. Bobcat the comedian. His films include Police Academy, which is one of the really fantastically wondrous movies of all time. [00:31:02] Speaker C: Police academies one through 15. [00:31:04] Speaker B: Of course, I know they've got. 70 more are in the making and they'll all look exactly the same, really. Schlock. Oh, that's a terrible series. Anyway, Police Academy. That's Bobcat Goldthwaite. He does stand up. But you see him on television every now and then also. Let's. Anyway, today is his birthday, May 26th. And we'll start with you, Tom. What do you. How old do you think Bobcat gold. Wait, is. 41? 41. Okay, Peter, what do you think? [00:31:36] Speaker C: I'll say 38. [00:31:37] Speaker B: Oh, back on the voice. What, are you driving Evelyn crazy? Sorry, did you say 38? Did you say 38? I'm sorry. [00:31:44] Speaker C: Yes. [00:31:45] Speaker B: 38. Okay. Can you put yourself together enough to make a guess? Evelyn? [00:31:49] Speaker E: I. I'll try hard. I think probably 39. [00:31:54] Speaker B: 39. How many rooms do you have at your house, by the way? [00:31:57] Speaker E: Six. [00:31:58] Speaker B: Six rooms. Okay. And you live in Quincy? [00:32:02] Speaker E: Two bedrooms. And I only use one. [00:32:06] Speaker B: Well, if Peter moved in, I think he'd like to keep that. Keep that intact. [00:32:10] Speaker E: Mom, you're edging me on, you know. Mom, you're edging me on. [00:32:15] Speaker B: I hope so. [00:32:15] Speaker E: I'm trying to be a lady. [00:32:17] Speaker B: Okay. And then I'll try to be a gentleman. [00:32:20] Speaker E: All right? [00:32:21] Speaker B: Okay. Jim, how old do you think Bob Goldthwaite is? 44. 44. Okay. And Laura? [00:32:28] Speaker D: I'm gonna say 43. [00:32:30] Speaker B: 43. And Frank? 5. 38. Now. 38. Okay. Same as Peter. And I think. I think that makes you a winner. Frank. With Peter, because he's 34. [00:32:42] Speaker E: Great. [00:32:43] Speaker B: He's a lot younger than many of you said. [00:32:45] Speaker E: Wonderful. [00:32:46] Speaker B: So, Peter. Peter and. And Frank. [00:32:48] Speaker C: I'm on the ball tonight, Peter. [00:32:51] Speaker B: You really are. That's five. You're walking away with this whole thing. Yeah. Five. You get five out of how many? Five out of seven. [00:32:59] Speaker C: That's more than I've gotten in the past three weeks combined. [00:33:01] Speaker B: Yeah, you're okay. This is. Boy, you're on a hot shot. [00:33:04] Speaker E: And I love you. Peter, the way you tell the traffic. You know what I mean? [00:33:09] Speaker B: Thank you. Yeah. She's the only woman who gets excited time, Peter. Yeah, just tell her again about. I hope I'm not being traffic. [00:33:21] Speaker C: On the Tobin Bridge, people actually got excited about. [00:33:25] Speaker B: All you have to do to get her excited. You say, traffic on the Tobin Bridge is backed up to the toll boats. [00:33:32] Speaker E: I love it. [00:33:32] Speaker B: She goes crazy. Yeah, Peter, Peter, Peter. [00:33:36] Speaker D: May I speak to Peter? [00:33:38] Speaker B: Yeah, go right ahead. [00:33:39] Speaker E: Now, I've got a hold on. [00:33:40] Speaker B: Evelyn. [00:33:41] Speaker D: Would you believe that when I first started listening to WBC and they said traffic on the threes, it took me a while, and I'm not. I'm fairly bright, but I kept saying, which threes? Which three roads are they specifically concentrating on? [00:33:57] Speaker C: That is exactly what I thought. When they hired me, I didn't know what they were talking about. [00:34:00] Speaker D: I'm not kidding. It took me about a week to realize that it was, you know, 10, 13, 1023, 10:03. I mean, it really did. I wasn't paying attention to the time it was coming on, and I. I mean, I wonder. [00:34:15] Speaker E: And you were actually. [00:34:16] Speaker B: Yes, a lot of people. Yeah, a lot of people. A lot of people called and wanted to know. A lot of people did say, we think we were seeing traffic on. On the trees, because they thought. They thought, you know, we had the helicopter flying overhead and was looking through the trees, that they thought it was that. Then they thought it was only highways that were numbered with a three in it or something. [00:34:38] Speaker D: And I thought it was the three major highways coming into Boston. [00:34:41] Speaker B: Yeah. No, a lot of people. It was confusing to a whole lot of people. [00:34:46] Speaker C: I caught it right away when I finally looked at my log sheet. Also, that promo you ran before we started the game, that explains it real well. [00:34:53] Speaker D: I haven't heard any promos. I mean, this is really the truth. [00:34:57] Speaker E: That. [00:34:58] Speaker D: And I sort of. I always wanted to put things into perspective. And I must say, it must have taken me. And, you know, of course, I didn't get out of the car and call. You know, I could have called WBC and asked them to explain it to me, but I. I couldn't believe that. It took me a little while, and so. But I. Norm, your traffic on the trees is the best thing I've heard. [00:35:20] Speaker B: No, that was. That's the truth. A lot of people did think it was. That it was. It was. You're not alone, Laura, in wondering what that meant because. Or you, Peter. A lot of people wondered. A lot of. We got an awful lot of phone calls. [00:35:34] Speaker E: May I say something? [00:35:35] Speaker B: Oh, God, how can I stop you? [00:35:38] Speaker E: I have made you, right? [00:35:41] Speaker B: You have made him. Is that what you said? [00:35:43] Speaker E: This lady is telling it. [00:35:45] Speaker B: Oh, oh, oh. [00:35:46] Speaker E: And I go into Boston every single day. Day and. Oh, but when I get to Boston, I have my own parking place where I work. You know what I mean? [00:35:56] Speaker C: Yes. [00:35:56] Speaker E: But, boy, I go on that expressway and forget it. Okay, I'm sorry. Nom. [00:36:04] Speaker B: No, that was worth interrupting for. That was really something. That was provocative and profound. Yeah, very true. Very profound. Yeah, very true. Expressway. Looks. [00:36:12] Speaker C: Looks clear. Just in case. [00:36:14] Speaker E: Okay, now, I'm. [00:36:16] Speaker B: What kind of a car do you drive? A very expensive, big car. Like a limousine with a chauffeur. [00:36:20] Speaker E: Oh, naturally. Of course. [00:36:23] Speaker B: I see. I see. [00:36:24] Speaker E: No, I drive myself, but it's a. [00:36:27] Speaker B: It's a big, big expensive car. [00:36:30] Speaker E: Well, not too bad. [00:36:31] Speaker B: Tinted. Tinted windshield. [00:36:33] Speaker E: Will you get on with this thing? I'm sorry. [00:36:39] Speaker B: Why? I'm sorry. [00:36:40] Speaker D: Why? [00:36:40] Speaker B: I offended you. [00:36:42] Speaker E: And she. [00:36:43] Speaker B: Okay. [00:36:44] Speaker E: You know, this is the best program, and I believe all of them. [00:36:48] Speaker B: I thought. I thought I was going to get on with this, if that's okay. [00:36:51] Speaker D: Get on. [00:36:52] Speaker B: I will, but it's kind of hard, you know, with. [00:36:55] Speaker E: I'm sorry. [00:36:55] Speaker B: The lady in the expensive. [00:36:57] Speaker E: No, I love you. [00:36:59] Speaker B: Oh, God. Cena. You're doing. You're doing. You're doing damage to me. You're driving me crazy. You're driving me crazy. [00:37:05] Speaker E: Peter. [00:37:06] Speaker B: Oh, Kitty. Okay. Oh, that's for Peter. Would you. Evelyn, would you just be quiet for a second? Time's up. Okay. All right. Now we're going to guess the age of. Let's see, I got a couple of people here. I'm trying to figure which one we ought to go with. [00:37:23] Speaker D: Help. [00:37:23] Speaker E: It's somebody. Oh, will you be. [00:37:25] Speaker B: Hold on. [00:37:26] Speaker E: Hold back. [00:37:26] Speaker B: Hold back. Evelyn, these all been people you've known, I would believe. Kenny Crab. Some of these are young people. Those are the ones you seem to have trouble with. [00:37:37] Speaker E: I'm sorry, sweetheart. Go ahead. [00:37:39] Speaker B: Yeah, could you be quiet, do you think, like, for a few minutes till I call on you to guess? [00:37:44] Speaker E: Okay. [00:37:45] Speaker B: Would that be okay with you? [00:37:46] Speaker E: Yes, darling. [00:37:47] Speaker B: I wouldn't want to ruin your entire night, but that would make things a little bit easier. Okay, let me. Let me. Let me tell you. Jeannie Francis. And you're probably saying, who the heck is Jeannie Francis? She's an actress. She played Laura on TV's General Hospital, and it was in the top rated segment, the Wedding of Luke and Laura. This is the part that's kind of interesting. She left General Hospital in 1981 because she was on the verge of an emotional breakdown. She'd sit in her car, sobbing at the end of the day, too embarrassed to admit that she was having problems while filming TV's north and South. And obviously she was on that, too. She met her husband, Jonathan Frakes, or Frakis, F R A K E S. You know, Jeanne Francis. Do you remember the wedding of Luke and Laura? Got tremendously high ratings and stuff in the soap opera field, but maybe none of us watched soap operas. I don't know. The guy who played Luke, I think, is still on the soap opera opera, and she's just, I don't know, maybe having an emotional problem. She may be sitting in her car on the WBC parking lot right this moment, crying. I could go out and take a look. Hold on a minute. Let me take a look. Hold on. Be quiet now. Be polite. Yeah, there she is. She's crying into her handkerchief in our parking lot right next to this expensive car from Quincy. Okay. Jeannie Francis. I. I wouldn't have known that name either, but you could take a guess to figure out. [00:39:24] Speaker C: Oh. [00:39:25] Speaker B: How old she may be. What do you think, Frank? 46 now 46, okay. And Laura. [00:39:33] Speaker D: Oh, I'm gonna say 34. [00:39:36] Speaker B: Did you know who I'm talking about? [00:39:37] Speaker D: No, I'm just. I mean, I know something about Laura and Luke, even though I never watched that thing, that it did make huge, you know, huge ratings and that they're still on and, you know, the original Laura and Luke. [00:39:57] Speaker B: Well, the original Luke is on. I don't know. Is it still the same Jeannie Francis still playing Laura on that? [00:40:02] Speaker D: Oh, is this Jeannie Francis who played Laura? I thought she just played. Because if it's. But Jeannie France, If Jeannie Francis is the Laura, then I would up my age. [00:40:15] Speaker B: I think of her, but it says, it says. It says she played Laura on TV's General Hospital and was in the top rated segment, the Wedding of Luke and Laura. Oh. [00:40:27] Speaker D: Oh, well, I. Well, I'd say 34. Anyway. [00:40:31] Speaker B: Okay. [00:40:33] Speaker D: I don't know what I'm doing. Doing. [00:40:36] Speaker B: Okay. Next thing you know, you'll have a talk show all of your own. Jim, what do you say? 41. Okay. Evelyn? [00:40:44] Speaker D: 50. [00:40:45] Speaker C: Peter, did you say that she's married to Jonathan Frakes, right? [00:40:50] Speaker B: Yes. [00:40:50] Speaker C: Oh, I'd say about 38 then. [00:40:53] Speaker B: Okay. Do you know him? [00:40:53] Speaker C: Who is William Riker from Star Trek the Next Generation? [00:40:57] Speaker E: Yeah. [00:40:57] Speaker D: Oh. [00:40:58] Speaker B: Oh, I see. Home. Okay, Tom, what do you think? 42. 42. She's actually 34, which is what Laura was. Norm, you're not spoofing it or. No, no. She's 34 years old today. [00:41:12] Speaker D: Oh, my goodness. I pulled out a one on the last question. [00:41:16] Speaker B: Yeah, you did. That's right. So you. You and Frank and Evelyn all have one apiece. Oh, and so does Tom. And Peter has five. Oh, that's so shame. You should have slowed down a little bit, Peter. But you were out there to kill, weren't you? To just embarrass everybody. [00:41:39] Speaker C: That was my goal tonight. Seek and destroy. [00:41:41] Speaker B: I know what happened. He got all excited. You think Evelyn inspired him? Did she? I certainly hope so, Peter. [00:41:51] Speaker E: Good luck. [00:41:51] Speaker C: Thank you. [00:41:52] Speaker B: I like the way you say my name also. Nom. [00:41:55] Speaker C: Yeah, that's the way your father said. [00:41:56] Speaker B: My father? Yeah, he was a little bit more extreme. He'd say. Nah, nah, man, look. Naming. Oh, God, I hated that name. The way he said it. I don't even like. I didn't even like the way. [00:42:08] Speaker E: But you know what? [00:42:09] Speaker B: I'll tell you later, but it's time for. Evelyn. [00:42:12] Speaker E: It was a delight being on your program this evening. [00:42:16] Speaker B: What's that, please? [00:42:17] Speaker E: I say, it was a delight being on your program. [00:42:20] Speaker B: Well, it was just. [00:42:21] Speaker E: I listen to you all again. As I said before, you're light, not heavy. [00:42:27] Speaker B: That's right. Yeah. And I'm a bubble head. That's what I am. Not heavy. [00:42:31] Speaker E: I think you're quite a gentleman. [00:42:34] Speaker B: Yes. Yes. [00:42:35] Speaker E: Okay. I'm sorry. Peter, I love you. [00:42:38] Speaker B: Yeah. Thank you. You know, the last thing in the world a gentleman would do would be to hang up on a woman. Do you agree with that, Emily? [00:42:45] Speaker D: Well, I hope. [00:42:47] Speaker B: Thank you very much, Evelyn. Oh, no, I couldn't help it. It was ruthless. Hey, Frank, thank you very much for being part of all this. I appreciate you coming on and thank you. Not my pleasure. I've been meaning to call and talk to you some nights. I like when you go back to the. The old days and you talk about, you know, the pans under the refrigerator and that type of stuff. Oh, that's right. Or the pans underneath your lights box. You're off on that every once in a while. They're back. And do you remember this? You know how old somebody actually is? Yeah, someone just 10 years younger than you. You don't realize how old you are when they don't remember something like that, you know. Hey, you're nice to say that. I hope you'll call Frank and we'll talk about that. Whatever you'd like to talk about. Well, I just always listen to them and I enjoy it. Anyway, thanks, Amelia. Okay. And the name is James, believe it or not. Okay. It is Frank. Frank James. That's right. Of course. Jesse James and his brother Frank. Oh, but this was. This Is with two M's. Two M. J, A, M, M, E, S. That's correct. But you. And you still pronounce it James. Right, that's it. That's interesting. Hey, Frank. Anyway, it's a pleasure to talk. You hope. We'll talk again soon. Okay, now I'm coming. Bye. Bye. Now, Laura, I want you to know it's you that I want, not Evelyn and. And. And Peter James feels the same way, even though he only spells his name [00:44:15] Speaker D: with one M. Well, I can say something to both of you. That I listen to the radio enough to know that when people are supposed to have good radio voices, they say they've got great pipes. Is that it? [00:44:27] Speaker B: Yeah. Usually they say that about singers, but you could say that about anybody. Uses his voice. Yes. Or her voice. [00:44:33] Speaker D: Right. So Peter definitely has great pipes. [00:44:36] Speaker E: And Norman, [00:44:39] Speaker D: you make it up in [00:44:40] Speaker B: brain power because I have bad pipes. [00:44:44] Speaker D: No, no, your pipes are very interesting. But Pete is our lower. [00:44:48] Speaker B: Okay. You like a real deep voice, do you? [00:44:51] Speaker D: I think I hear more deep voices. There are fewer deep voices on the radio, but when you hear them, you notice. [00:44:58] Speaker B: I guess that's probably true. So far as I'm concerned, that's true. Yes. Thank you. [00:45:04] Speaker C: That's one pitch I cannot. [00:45:07] Speaker D: Okay, that's my. [00:45:08] Speaker B: That's my invitation. Nice evening with you, Laura. Thank you very much. You're a lot of fun. And I'm gonna. I'm gonna. I'm gonna buy you another gardenia wrist corsage. [00:45:18] Speaker D: Okay. Bye. [00:45:19] Speaker B: Bye. Bye. Bye. Now, what did that mean? I have no idea. Why? One day you'll be like that, Peter. You'll be saying things that are totally nonsensical. [00:45:30] Speaker C: Who was the one about the hat there? [00:45:31] Speaker B: No, no. I try to forget. I try to forget. [00:45:34] Speaker C: Should have written that down. I like that one. [00:45:35] Speaker B: Yeah, I try to forget those names as soon as I say them. Jim, who's from Pennsylvania, but visiting his sister here in this part of the world. I hope the rest of your stay here is enjoyable. Have you been having fun so far? Oh, yeah, yeah. I was up last fall. I called you last fall when I was up. I was on the show last fall. [00:45:55] Speaker E: How long. [00:45:55] Speaker B: How long are you going to be around? Till the 10th of June. Oh, okay. So you got a. You got a lot of time to spend here, and I hope it's all very enjoyable. Thank you for spending part of it with us. Thank you. I enjoyed it. Thank you, Jim. God, that was gracious, the way I said that. Did you see that? That's. That's classic. Kind of stuff. [00:46:14] Speaker C: Beautiful. [00:46:14] Speaker B: Oh, that was so beautiful, Peter. I better let you go because you now have only three minutes to get together all the facts about every car that's on the highway in eastern Massachusetts. [00:46:25] Speaker C: Wish me luck. In this report. Last week, 403, someone bumped me from behind. I fell off my chair. One sentence to go at the end of my report. Your producer wasn't too happy with me. [00:46:36] Speaker B: But, hey, listen, at this time of the day, we're just happy that you're awake and able to get the English language out of your mouth because they make the management here makes no demands on people who are working all night. That's why I'm still here, so don't worry about that. No, you sound good and it's a pleasure to talk with you. We'll talk with you again soon. [00:46:56] Speaker C: Thank you, Norm. [00:46:56] Speaker B: Okay. He does have a good voice and that's why I hate his cuts. No, he really sounds good. And Tom Howey, thank you very, very much. Okay, Tom is now getting up from the microphone here at the WBZ Plushwood, not over the Ostentatious studios, and is going back to the studio where he will produce because he keeps right on producing. That's the way I look at it. Okay, coming up to news, then we'll take some calls after that. And most of the lines are open right at this very very moment. So if you'd care to, you know, we can exchange words about anything that's on your mind. I'd like that a lot. 2, 5, 4, 1030 is our number. Talk to you soon if it's happening now. You're hearing it now on WBC, your only choice for breaking news 24 hours a day. News radio 1030, WBC. Boston [00:47:56] Speaker A: Love was in and on the air for that show. Really sweet comments and genuine feelings from the players. You get what you give. Am I right, people? Have yourselves a great week.

Nelson Norman, Frank Fallon with sports. John Kiley and his organ show. Norm's brother in law Howie being full of stories. Freeman James Tucker, junior senior juniors. Charming WBZ people. Abysmal failure. Main boobies playing for the real tomatoes. Your phone having a cold. Western electric bell system. Trimline phones, downed lines. Altoona fiery loins. Littleton versus Middleton life synopses. Having your brother as your agent. Lip suction. Ride, Sally, ride. Hey, call me sometime. The lovesick blues. Mounting tensions. Having the money and dressing with class for the men. Schlock. Crying into your handkerchief. Having great pipes. Not having great pipes, but having brain power. Gardenia corsages. Hanging up with ruthless class. The provocatively dressed James Peters. Howie Tom. And the man sinning his hat off. Nathan Norman. I'm Theodore Anthony. [00:49:30] Speaker B: In any event. In any event, what? In any event? I don't know. I don't know what I was leading up to with that.
