It's nice eye yelling Boston's news radio.
All right, welcome back in everybody. We are at the twentieth hour of the week here on Nightside. And for those of you, and by the way, I hope Davies listening, Davy. I meant that if you know you're getting back to Boston anytime soon, give me a call. And you know, I remember you as a as a as a regular caller from Mississippi, and then when you moved to Illinois, you always brought your a game. You're a very upbeat,
positive guy. I love to buy your beer next time you get to Boston or Rob gave you my number. If you give me, give me a call, and I'll try to try to do whatever we can to to say hello. That's for sure. We're friendly people up here in Newland. We don't have that reputation. We have the reputation of being kind of dour and not particularly the warmest people in the world. I think just the opposite. To be really honest with you, now, we're gonna get
positive here. Okay. I'm gonna have to drag maybe a lot of you into this positivity because it has been a tough week. Okay, it's a tough weeks. We're still dealing with the the on and off winter weather. I mean, it's spring. Spring. Spring sprung on March twenty first. That's two weeks ago at this point. So when you think about it, we're every every season gets thirteen weeks. So if you want to get really depressed, two weeks of spring have already gone. So we have two of the
thirteen weeks gone. We only have eleven weeks of spring left. Yeah. No, I'm gonna make I'm gonna help. I'm gonna try and with your help, make it positive. We do a program on Facebook every day every afternoon and every night right after the show in the afternoon. It's either myself or producer Marita, who is doing the podcast if you will, the live shot whatever you want to call it. On Facebook. We have a web page called Nightside with Dan Ray.
You've got a couple of other web pages, but that's the one that either Marita or I will be with you at four thirty in the afternoon tell you them what's coming up on the show. It's always four thirty. Sometimes it's four thirty one, sometimes it's four twenty nine. Sometimes it's four thirty two. But we get there okay, and we have a good conversation, and I do a show right after the show. We call it Nightside Postgame, Okay, same way, it's on Nightside with Dan Ray on Facebook.
And I go over the show with you, and I tell you what I think of the show, and if I think it's like a great show, I'll tell you that. If I think it's like a not so great show, I'll tell you that too. And we have a loyal group of people who join us, some in the afternoon, some at night, some both in the afternoon and at night. And one of the folks this week told us that he had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer around Christmas time, and he told us that he was pronounced clear of
the cancer this week. Well, I gotta tell you that was the best news I heard for anyone all week. And I hope, I hope that some of you have had some good news this week. I had a great piece of news today. My daughter in law sent me pictures of our grandson Benjamin, who spent had his first picture day. I get maybe his second picture day. He's not even threes two and three quarters. I'm a grandfather
and Marita, our producer, is a mom. She has a little girl named Stella, who I saw a picture of Stella today wearing her Red Sox uniform with her name on the back, cute as a button. So those are the sort of things that were positive for me this week, and I hope you've had some positive experiences as well. So what I'm going to do is I'm just going to open up the phone lines. My audience. Never disappoints me, okay, and don't disappoint me tonight, because this is an important
hour for us. It's the last one until we see you again on Monday Night. But I did want to briefly, briefly hit some of the highlights of a week that didn't have a lot of highlights. Okay. We talked earlier in the week about the Karen Reid trial, the jury selection starting. We talked about sort of a dystopian view on Monday night at ate about a jobless society where
the robots would take over. I don't believe that. We talked about an invasive species called green crabs with a woman that is turning green crabs into a broth that she says would be quite tasty, and all of that, We talked again about the jury selection. We did two and a half hours on social security, try to calm people's fears and apprehensions about social Security. Social Security is
not going away, okay, but that's okay. We then talked about the arrest of some of the students who are visa holders, and I think, frankly, that's an overreaction and it's a hymn handed reaction by the Trump administration. If you go to arrest a student and revoke their visa, tell me why, don't tell me that they wrote an op ed piece in some college newspaper. The guy at Columbia, that's a different story. He was a real active participant in some of that disruption at Columbia last spring where
students were harassed and physically balked from attending classes. On Tuesday night, we talked about Autism Awareness Month with Joanne Simmons of Northeast ARC. We talked about We talked with Eric Glass, the owner of a new rum company here in Massachusetts, Rumson's Run. We talked about a trend amongst young people that they are going to the bank of
mom and dad. A lot of young people are borrowing money pretty heavily from parents, just for the for the everyday needs, the food and rent and things like that. And then we talked with a psychologist about white people seem to be so unhappy with a great hour with Jim Roosevelt on Social Security. Jim is the grandson of Franklin Dell and Roosevelt, of course, who signed the Social
Security Law into effect in nineteen thirty five. And that will be, by the way, if you miss that, that will be our best of Nightside this Sunday night at eleven o'clock. And of course you can always go back and listen to any hours of Nightside you missed by going to Knightside, by simply going to Nightside and demand it anytime during the week. It's available at that website, as of course you would expect it to be every day.
Twenty four to seven. We then talked about the death penalty and its application of potentially with Luigi Menngioni that has been requested by the Attorney General Pam Bonding, and we spent a couple of hours on that. On Wednesday night, we talked about alcohol awareness. We talked about the fifty greatest athletes in Boston history. Unfortunately, the author did not include Louis t ont In, that which I disagree immensely,
very quick a lot. Talked with the former owner and general manager of a minor league hockey team which paved the way for the NHL expansion team, the Columbus Blue Jackets. Talked about spring allergy season. We talked with Larry Edelman of the Boston Globe about the Trump tarriffs. This was on Wednesday night. Okay, it was too late to sell because of that point that the futures were not looking good, and we talked for two hours about the reaction to tariffs.
Last night, we talked about students here in Massachusetts becoming more savvy financially. We talked about this little library up in Vermont that straddles the border between the US and Canada. Interesting conversation. Talked with Colin Young of the State House News Service, how a sung a song became the official Massachusetts state poem. Didn't even know we had one. And talked with Jeff Herman of Home Gnome about neighbors and
their pet peeves with fellow neighbors. We spent an hour with Josh Kraft last night, candidate for mayor in Boston. We talked with Professor Greg Staller of Boston University at the Quenstrum School of Business. We had a great hour really explaining tariffs, and Greg tells me today that he had more response to that our people who listened to it and who have asked to go back and listen to it if you really want to get an understanding of what how tariffs work. The word is thrown around,
but a lot of people don't understand it. Go to the ten o'clock hour on Thursday night and then we'd had a reaction hour last night of people talking about tariffs and lad Tonight we talked about We talked with John Decker, who's an iHeart correspondent signed to the White House, but he's a big hockey and he was at the game where Ovechkin scored two goals to tie tie the all time goal scoring NHL goal scoring record of Wayne Gretzky. Talked about children's services in Roxbury and a talent show
that's coming up next week. Talk with Dan Shaughnessy of the Red Sox opening win today. Talk with Jordan rich about Parkinson's and his group that is trying to do something to raise funds Jordan's trail. Trail Blazers go to his website, The Jordan Rich Show on Facebook and you can contribute. Talk with President Greg Wiener of Assumption University, who wrote a really interesting piece in the New York Times,
really interesting piece. Talk with him for an hour and then last hour we talked about the stock market having a bad day, a bad couple of days, and even a worse day today than it had yesterday. So that has been the week. I'm going to take a very quick pause. It's not a long break. The only lines that are available right now are six point seven, nine, three, one, ten thirty. I challenge you. I challenge each and every
one in my night side audience right now. I know it doesn't seem like a very uplifting moment in the We're out of March, we're in April. The Red Sox won today. There are some good things going on. I want to know something good that happened to you this week, and let's let's end the week on a positive note.
The only lines open six one, seven, nine thirty. It's up to you to carry the ball and light these phones up between now and midnight, and I'll talk to you and I'll tell you exactly what I thought of my show tonight when you join us on night Side with Dan Ray on Facebook tonight about two minutes after midnight, back on night Side, I got some positive vibes. I hope you do too. We're coming back on night side.
If you're on night Side with Dan Ray on wz Boston's news radio, all right.
We're gonna get right to the phones and want to hear some positive vibe. It's as simple as that. Okay. I don't care how much money you lost in the stock market this week. I believe it'll come back and let's get the positive vibes going. I'm gonna go first off to Linda in Weymouth. Linda, you got to give me something positive to get us going here, go right.
Ahead, good evening. I first off, I received some news. It wasn't some good news, but.
I don't want to hear I don't want to hear any bad news. I just want to hear good.
I want to talk about that part of it, but it gives me some basis for resolving some back issues. So go forward. I was initial initially calling to because I remember around this time of season, the season of time Passover and Easter Easter Resurrection Day. A sermon that I've heard of you number of years back. It comes to me each periodically, even through the years. I believe it might have been done by Tony Evans.
I'm not sure who Tony Evans is, but go ahead.
He from the South felled and it goes a very short one. It goes, it's Friday. It has to do with the Passover meal, the Lord Supper. We call it the Lord Supper. And he goes, it's Friday, Sunday to come in. It's Friday, and Sunday to come. It's Friday and Sundays the coming.
Thank God, it is Friday, TG, I have Friday. Thanks Linda, I appreciate you call. That was a good one. Let's go to George. George, you're next, You're next on Night Side.
Hey, how you doing, Dan? I had a real good day today. I don't really care about the soft market, but took my dog to the doctor nine years old. I'm worried that you know that, sure he might have problems, and and he really has some real good results. A nine year old Cockerpool. I mean, I can't believe the unconditional love that my dog, and probably all dogs give. Out of eight billion people in this world, I think I don't think there's a human being capable of unconditional love,
but I know a dog is. I know you Childie was no question. I just love it. This is my buddy.
I was talking to my daughter tonight in San Francisco and she adopted a shelter dog a couple of years ago, will be two years this summer Mustard and just a great dog, you know, who had had a prior owner who was in a position that she had to give up the dog. And my daughter somehow was able to work it out that she got this dog. And this guy is unbelievable. He is just he's a great He's a great dog, simple as that, and I hope that everybody. And my daughter tonight asked me. She said, Dad, the
shelters are full of dogs. People don't realize they And you know, you don't have to go and buy a dog to a breeder. You can you can take advantage of there. We did something with I think it was the Animal Rescue League a few weeks ago, or it might have been the MSP SO I forget which in which they were. They were they were not charging people
for everything. For the shelter dogs. People, if you want to smile, go to any of the sheltered dog sites on your computer and just look at some of these dogs. Even if you're not going to go down and adopt one of them, just realize that they're there. They are going to provide absolute, total love to a human being. In many cases, people who have never experienced really totally complete love. They never second gets you nothing. They just want to be your brow.
Yeah, I'm serious, it's unconditional.
You love.
You can yell at your dog in the morning because you made a mistake on the floor, and at five o'clock when you come home, he's a wagger his tail. I mean all but people that might might be lonely, they should all on the dog. I'm not a cat person, but maybe they're the same. But I just have a great day with this dog. He's my you know, he's half my life.
All right, George, that's a good one. Thank you much for getting us making us positive.
Man.
You're very welcome, my man, Thank you.

If Florence is not listened by the phone, we'll move on. Rob Okay, did I always I got I missed it. I go here you go, Florence. Rob didn't back me up on that one.

I wanted to tell you he's something funny. Wednesday I had a doctor's appointment. I had to go Liberation Day and that morning weelness of the morning, I had a mouse in my house, running back and pull it in front of my fire place in the living room.
Yeah, and he.

Yeah, he said to my son, I'm calling him, Nikki. I hope he leaves. And when I went.
Over, I hope it was the mouse that left, not your son. I assume, right. I just want to make sure I got this way, okay, good enough.
Yeah, but when I went out the door, he left.
He went with you.
Good, he left.
I didn't take him with me.
Well, he left with you, and then he went about his his business. Yeah, that's okay. That's a positive story.
And I was released very happy about it. And at the doctors he had some good news.

Okay, keep rolling here, everybody, let me go next to come on, let's get these phones at six one, seven, four, ten thirty is the only line

I want your best story of the week. Something good must have happened to
you this week. Let's get positive for the weekend. It's as simple as that. I don't want to end on a downer note. It's been a week that's been downer, that has been downers. I talked to you about it all week long. We talked about the death penalty for Luigi MENNGIONI. I mean, the donor is nothing. He's going to get the death penalties up. For the death penalty. The dow downor is what he did. We talked about social security. We try to assuage your apprehensions about social scurity.

But I think it's going to come back. Let's get positive. You guys have never disappointed me before. I don't start now only one line six, one, seven, ninth. No one's getting a lot of time here. I want to move a lot of people through. Coming back on night Side.
It's night Side with Dan on Boston's news radio.
We're trying to close out the week on a positive note. This is the twentieth hour of Nightside. There's been a lot of negativity this week. Let's get positive. Where we going next, Let's go to Richie in New York. Richie? Whereabouts in New York you're calling from?
Well, I'm from North Riding, but I'm going to Newburgh. I'm on my way there. I go down there every night. I look you on the first time.
Parler.
Well, let's get the who We're going to get around of applause. So if you go to Newburgh every night. I assume you're driving a big rig.
Yes, I do doubles, so doubles. WHOA do it for fifty years now? But anyway, come on back. In December of twenty three, I thought I had pneumonia and I went to my to my doctor and he goes, oh, no pneumonia, but you have asthma. But because I've been going for thirty years, he tested my PSA numbers and they were I worried about like twenty four. Told PSA is supposed to be under five.
Yep.
I went to Just a month later they went up to thirty eight. Now back in June of twenty four, they put me on this medicine. And then all of a sudden, I said, I'm a Catholic boy, went to Catholic school. Better start going back to church again. And I went to church. I went every Sunday. I was praying to God. And on March nineteenth of last year, I actually was this year when I came out of church on a Sunday, I really thought it was really I was really talking to God. And I went and
my blood work done on a Monday. I go to my doctor on a Wednesday. My PSA number is a zero point zero zero one, totally undetuctable. I has state cancer.
So you you had prostates answer, and you've you've beatn this. You've beaten it without having to undergo surgery or any of the big treatments.
I take a pill a day is all. I take one pill a day. And I got an injection to one stone every three months. And I had the pet Skian done, which they pupped you with radioactive stuff. You're going that donut. It was in toughs in Boston, and they said the good news and bad news. You don't have any in your bones, any in your organs, but you had it outside the prostate area, which that's what they were concerned about. Stage four. So out of this medicine.
And I told my priest at church, I go and I go to Saint Adelaie's and Pobe where General Rosa used to go to it. I used to listen to her.
You remember her name? Sure? Yeah, look that that Richie is great news.
Uh, it's unbelievable, you know it maybe my day.
Well, this this this is one that people will carry with them. Uh. I I think we gave you a round of a positive not you deserve a second round of a plausas a first from our digital studio audience. Let me tell you that is great. I told you about one of our listeners who had a diagnosis in December of pancreatic cancer.
Right, that's what made me. I'm listening to you when I heard that it's not going to give him a call.
You know, well, I think the deal. What's so important about this, rich is that you know, whether it's a miracle or you're just the luckiest son of a gun in the world, You've given some hope because there's other people this week who maybe got a bad diagnosis, and so you know, you have spread the good word. And I gotta tell you, I happen to believe like you do, and.
To believe in the man upstairs. He's watching out over me.
You know well, I'm I'm going to join you in that belief. I do the same thing when I'm in church. I say my prayers and look, you know, no one can prove to me that this is it. When we finish here and we we have the big dirt napp, that's it. And I can't prove to them that there's something better. But if I'm if I'm going to believe in anything, that's what I believe in. So simple.
I'm right on the same page again. I believe there's something there for me. And we have a mutual friend and doctor Al Franky. I go to him all the time.
He's a great guy, is he He's a great He's a wonderful guy. Well, Rich, do me a favor, keep in touch, call more often. You your positivitis infectious. We got another guy who's out there, you know. And I know a lot of the the road Warriors listened to Nightside, a lot of them don't call. There's a fellow friend of mine, Steve, who also uh is driving.
