It's the Tuesday episode of the Billy and Lisa Morning Show and Lisa Donovan as I look out the window. It looks like pretty good to stay. Get out and enjoy, folks. This is a gorgeous day. Lots of sunshine, temps in the eighties. We have a nice stretch of weather right now. We do. A lot less humid than it's been this summer. It's perfect. It's perfect. Hey, I meant to ask you, I think it was in your traffic reports yesterday. Yes. You were talking about a bull causing some problems. Yes, so it was in the nine o'clock hour. I remember Justin, you were sort of, you were going to be doing, you know, a live read and we were talking about this. They said it was a cow at one point. It turned out to be a bull. There was an accident on 4.95 involving several cars, but there was a bull on the loose from a car and caused a lot of commotion, and then it ended up getting shot. They had to kill it. They had to put it down. I think the bull realized what was going on. It was being taken to be put down and it escaped from the truck. Yeah, it was going to the slaughterhouse because it was very aggressive. It wasn't going down that way. No way. You know what I mean? That's what I love about the bull. He was putting up a fight. Oh, yeah, one last hurrah. It seemed like it was out on a fun being out and about like finally getting out of the pasture. It was like obviously what it ran by us. It was like kind of just sitting there like frolicking in the woods. Officers did end up shooting the bull because it was so aggressive. A farm worker unfortunately had to euthanize the animal, but it was a two hour chase. This bull was on the loose. He was going after it. I wonder if we can have it for dinner tonight. Okay, you know what? The four of us all eat meat. So yes, we're like, oh, it's so sad, but we all eat meat. But this bull was very smart and actually dove into the river and was swimming. Oh my God, we did it. Oh, yeah, yeah. It was a complete escape. Wow. Yeah, the bull. Not a bull. Not a bull. So in loving memory of the bull and actually for the people that got hurt in the car crash, we hope that you're okay. Oh, yeah. Was it car crash caused by it? Yes. I know. Yeah. What kind of bull was it? That bull. And it was a three car crash on 495. So in rain, him and the bull started charging at the police officers. But you know what the bull didn't want to go and wanted, you know, wanted to live. Yeah. He got an extra 10 minutes out of it. We talked about the weather. Do you know what the forecast is going to be for this weekend? Yeah, I mean, there's a storm sort of, you know, off our coast on Sunday. So I think it's, you know, we'll have some sun Saturday going to be nice. I think it'll be okay. Good. Do you have plan? What's going on? Well, well, Lisa not have been informed me that there is a topless festival on Boston Common this Saturday. Oh, yes. You're right, Bill. The Tatas. Yeah, it's a, it's a rally. Just a good old fashioned Tatas. It's called top freedom. Okay. So get out. Go to the comment at one o'clock. Take it off and take it off. Didn't Miley Cyrus start that whole movement free the nipple? She did. Yeah. I mean, let it go. Yeah. They're going for equality for women. Men can go topless and they think we should do now will they be arrested or they're not saying Boston Police Department has not made a statement yet. I mean, I mean, that's a lot of people to arrest. I don't think you can do that. I don't think they're going to arrest anyone. Would any of the three of you, Lisa, Winnie and producer Riley take part in that festival? I personally would not. I would go braless, but I do that anyways. What do you mean, bro? Oh, just a shirt with a white shirt. You really don't wear bras. I do wear bras, but I don't always wear a bra right now, actually. Oh, yeah, for you. Thank you. But yeah, I know, I'm like, I go half and half. And that's why I swear. That's why my boobs are, you know, OK, OK, I think enough said at this point. But yeah, I guess they're trying to make a statement that if guys can walk around, I mean, what's the big deal in nipples and nipple, whether it's a guy's nipple or a woman's nipple, right? Isn't that the argument? Think about guys that have boobs that go shirtless. Justin used to have man boobs. They got taken out. Yeah, they were cut out of my body. What's the difference between you when you were shirtless and you were overweight? I had man boobs. They were sag and low. Did you have a breast reduction? I did. Wow. Yeah, you didn't notice. I think I did. But yeah, I'm just totally recreated human. It's like amazing to me. Well, the only downside of the kind of commastia surgery, the breast reduction. Yeah, as I lost my nipples. You know, OK, hold on. Wait, wait, you can get nipples tattooed on. No, they're still there. They just they just hide a lot and they kind of look like guineas. They know they look like there's a slice in the middle of my neck. I am not showing you my nipple. I want to be zero. How is it possible? I did not know this. Sometimes they come out. They chalk your nipples with the surgery where they went. They went in through my nipple. Yeah. So they said that's one downside is, you know, your nipples will be affected. Yeah. Now they do come out sometimes. I'm touching them right now. They're not out there. Really? They're just fondling yourself right now. When did they come out? Not not during like a sexy time, just random times. I guess maybe one in cold. Is there feeling? The feeling did return. It took about a year. I had numb nipples. Do you like your nipples? I am not talking about that on the radio. But I'm very happy with the surgery. Yeah. There's one more thing we have to talk about this morning. As you know, the done events on vacation went to Iceland. And they did a lot of hiking up and down the glaciers and the rocks and the mountains. Right? Yep. A lot of hiking. Is any one of us surprised at all that Lisa's husband, Tim, who tended to have a lot of accidents and gets hit with every possible sickness and disease, right? He now has lagoon rot. What? What? You didn't know this just? No, he showed it to me yesterday when I got home because I didn't want to say anything to you. But remember how we went to the lagoon? We put this like, sure, we put this like face mask on that they give you. We all did it. It was felt great. Sure. He has a massive rash all over his face. Like bumps and pimples, bumps, like red boils all over his heart. Like Icelandic rot. It's hilarious. Oh, it's like lagoon rot. Yeah, it's awful. What is he supposed to do for it? I don't know. I think he's just supposed to watch it and see if it goes away by itself. Try not to scratch and apply a lot of heat to the surface. Right now, just going to happen. It's always him. It's always him. Tim from Milton. Hi, this is Tim from Milton. Yeah, Lisa and I were texting back and forth while they were on these wild adventurous hikes, right? Yes. And we actually joked around by text like, Oh, what's one of the chances Tim's not going to get down with something's going to happen. He's going to fall off the cliff. Yeah. Oh boy. Oh my God. Didn't he fall? He did fall, didn't he? But he was okay. I'm glad he's going to. I'm glad he's. Is he is he itchy? I think it's a little itchy. Oh boy. God. Can we get back to the Tatas on Boston Common? I may not choose to go topless. God forbid everybody'd run away. Hey, the good news is it's a Tuesday morning and the ticket tag for Sabrina Carpenter tickets is back. We're going to announce a name at 7 10 this morning. 7 10 will announce the name be ready because you'll have 15 minutes to get back to us to get the tickets for her show in Boston. You'll qualify for the grand prize on Friday for her show in Nashville. So ticket tag kicks off at 7 10 and entertainment is up next from the Planet Fitness Kiss 108 studios. We're back with a billy and Lisa in the morning on Kiss 108. My man, Oscar right there. Yep. That doesn't say good morning. You know, that's when songwriting was songwriting. Hold the heads steady. Hold the cow. It never gets old. No, it really doesn't. Yeah. You know, that's a good time. Yeah. It brings you back to when songwriting was songwriting. The fact that that song is like 20 years old is insane. I know. I can't believe it. I would love to have been in on the studio conversation when they were putting the lyrics together. Hey, I got one. I got it ready. You got it. I got it. That works. We'll put that one in there. Justin, give me a couple of chalk back. Oh, yeah. So if you leave a talk back for the show on the iHeart app, you tap the red microphone, you do it in the 6 a.m. hour. You become a member of the 6 a.m. Club. Good morning, everyone. This is Irina from the 6 a.m. Club. So glad you are back. Justin, I hope your son Abel is feeling okay after that encounter with the dog. And just wanted to wish everyone a really nice Tuesday. I'm calling from beautiful Vermont. We had double rainbow yesterday. Enjoy your day. Wow. Double rainbow in Vermont. That's beautiful Irina. Yeah. I've met her. She's really nice. Yeah. She came to a book club. Yeah. Yeah. Book Club Irina. Yeah. Yeah. Good morning. It's the mayor of the South Bend. It's going to be beautiful out. No bull. Today, we need to celebrate National Left Hand today. Famous left-handers include Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, and Billy Coste's favorite, Miss Judy Garland. Clang, clang, clang, went the trolley. Have a great day, everyone. Oh, it's National Left Hand is wow. Wow. Let's celebrate. You put your left hand in. You put your left hand out. You put your left hand in and shake it all about. Now the entertainment update with the Billy Coste. Okay. A couple of Olympic things. Pretty much everybody back from Paris. And that includes Jimmy Fallon, who now has an Olympic recap song. It all started on the river. Don't drink the water. You'll need medicine. Our flag was being carried by the King LeBron crossing that river like George Washington. The Golden Girls won two and twits and flips. While you pull the muscle just watching it. Ledecky in the pool winning every race. Have the other swimmers all making this face. Katie Ledecky, she was amazing. We haven't talked much about her. She won a bunch of medals. And she announced she struggles with an illness that came out during the. Yeah. P O T S. Yeah. Potts, which is what lightheadedness or something? Yeah. Yeah. Don't ask me. Yeah. Okay. All right. It's. So Adele's got her biggest residency going on. And she says she more than anything else loved the breakdown. I have to ask you because it's it's all of me and my friends have been talking about now for the show today. And I'm not saying anything. I'm, you know, I'm I think it's taken. I think it's the best thing that's happened in the Olympics the entire time. Did anyone see the break dancing? They do. Well, it's not going to happen again. It was so good. They canceled it. Yeah. I don't understand why they had it just to cancel it. I think they were trying to get more different type of athlete, right? Because dancing is a really hard thing to do. Right. You have to be athletic to be a dancer. Oh, yeah. I feel like everyone's talking about it, you know, that they like watching it. I watch like three and a half hours. It's a little embarrassing. That is what it is. And Australian breakdancer Rachel gun is all over social media now. People making fun of her kangaroo hop. Yeah, which I thought was a little odd. I was like, Oh, that's different. It wasn't what I expected. And she wasn't really a good breakdancer. No, you know, but she's all over social. And McDonald's in France is banning curry sauce now because Steph Curry in the U.S. basketball team beat France. Funny. That's funny. That's really funny. Never late. Oh, I love. I love a good curry. I hate curry. Red Sox outfielder Jarrod Duran given a two game suspension for homophobic slurs. He shouted at a heckler the other day. And he talked about it started. I just want to kind of say that I've had some fans reach out to me and tell me that they're disappointed in me. And I just want to let them know that I'm sorry for my actions of that. I'm going to work on me better for them. Yeah, he didn't play last night and he won't play tonight. Meantime Sox manager Alex Cora on his thoughts right here. From my end, obviously, like I said, there's a lot of work to be done. But I'm here, you know, to help him out, right? I reach out to him. And he made a big mistake. And he's he's living with it, right? And as a manager, I got to do my job as a person. There's more from my end, right? There's not about what's going to happen tonight and the roster and all that. This is what I'm going to do as a person to support him and help him to be better. Okay. I love Alex Cora. Yeah, everybody loves Alex Cora. I just feel like that word he used is so like, like how older? Yeah, it's actually a gross word. But like at your big age, however, he is 20 something like, if you want to call somebody out, use a better term at all. Yeah, there was so many other names he could. Yeah, like I don't even care that he called him a name. But like, why would you pick such a stupid, horrible name to call somebody school gross? Yeah, it's like almost using like the R word like no one uses those words anymore. Like grow up. I like dickhead personally. Yeah, that's just me. It's a personal favorite. Never gets tired. Yeah. You know, former pants coach Bill Belichick was on the McAfee show yesterday asked about all the NFL offers he got but turned down, including the 49ers. Yeah, well, I appreciate the question. I'm just going to keep all those conversations that I had between any other coaches or teams or whatever, just we'll keep those private. I appreciate the conversation. And, you know, Kyle's great. I love Kyle. It's a ton of respect for him, his dad, and you know, the way they coach the game, what they've done for the game. I love Kyle and Mike Shanahan. Why doesn't he ask him the hard-hitting questions? The 20s are like, what's going on with Jordan? What's she up to this weekend? Yeah. That's all anyone wants to know. I don't care about what teams he's not going to work for. You're going to drop her off at school. Another bike ride today. He's opening it in school. Back to school. Yeah. Get her a new backpack. Pats and the Eagles have a joint team practice today, the preseason game, Thursday night. And Jimmy Kimmel turned down the Oscars this year. He's decided not to do it this time. It's hard. It's it's a lot of work. And the show suffers a little bit, to be honest, you're nightly show because when I'm focused on the Oscars, I'm less focused on the show. And I just decided I didn't want to deal with that this year. This is too much last year. You want to pushing everything off till after the Oscars and you have to do everything you promised to do after the Oscars. Also, it's, you know, I did two years went well. I did another two years. It went well. I figure I'd take a little break. You think there's a story there? Maybe. I don't know. Another story to be told why he's not doing it. I don't know. But I'll tell you this MTV is delaying the VMAs one day from September 10th to the 11th to avoid conflicting with the presidential debate, which happens September 10th. And Mark Wahlberg's new movie, The Union opens this coming Friday. And on ABC, he talked about getting rid of all of his tattoos. Terribly painful. I they promise you that it's very quick. A couple of visits. It took me many years. I actually was trying to get them removed by the time I was going to do the fighter because every time I did a movie, if I had to take my shirt off, I had to cover it all with make with makeup agonizing experience. So I tried to get it done. And it took me like five years to get them completely removed. And it's like hot baking grease getting flicked on you over and over and over. Yikes. Is it that painful? I don't know. I want to get mine removed. I don't know if I want to do it now. Well, you don't have a good fresh over pain. So I don't know if you do handle it. Didn't I send you a video during vacation of Mark Wahlberg in the middle of the night in the gym? Yeah, I follow him. Yeah, he does ice baths. Does he get up earlier? Yeah, yeah, two, three a.m. Wow. Yeah. And the hotels that he stays at, he has them bring ice right to the room right for his. He's dedicated. Hey, yet another Post Malone song from that country album coming out this week. In fact, the album comes out this Friday. We've got a clip of that. I lost a lot that that was given. I get the rest of that rock star living. Take all of me. But there's one thing to say. But I can't give you what don't belong to me. Don't be wrong with me. Don't be wrong with me. Don't be wrong with me. Don't be wrong with me. I'm thinking that this album immediately shoots to number one, right? Definitely. Everything he touches turns to gold. I feel like it's so good. Yeah, that's a good song. Yeah, it's almost like every single song. We've played clips and every song so far. And we love all of them. Yeah. Yeah, he was like, I'm just going to be a country artist now. And I think he should be went to Nashville and took over. There you go. We are brought to you by Ocean Edge Resort and Golf Club. Listen, experience the quintessential Cape Cod summer.

Yeah, we're back and the ticket tag is on. In fact, it's happening right now. We're talking about Sabrina Carpenter tickets here. Okay, we need. I'm going to call a name right now. Ah, okay, at Kate. Let me do it. Is it at Kat Tierney? Let him go. Let him go. Did you see this one? I did. I couldn't wait for this moment. At Kat Tierney. Is that it? At Cat Tierney. That's good enough. Yeah, at Cat Tierney with three whys at the end. Either that or Winnie just printed it wrong. Let me see it. Yeah, Cat Tierney. Yeah, yeah. Her last name's probably Turny and her first name's only Kate or Cat Tierney. Well, she added extra whys at the end, so it's a little confusing. Yeah. Okay, Kat. We're not playing the name again. That's it. Yeah. Well, good luck, Kat, if you're out there. And she tagged Sarah, Steve, B-S-S-S-S-S. What's going on with Kat? Well, it's because... I think Kat needs a hobby. No, because their user names are taken with their regular names, so they just add a Y or I or something. Yeah. So, Kat, you've got 15 minutes to get back to us and get in touch with producer Riley. And if you do, you'll get tickets to Sabrina Carpenter here in Boston, but you'll qualify for the grand prize that we hand out Friday, which is a trip to Nashville to see Sabrina Carpenter. That's amazing. That's a prize right there, boy. Okay, want to talk about this Kim Kardashian, Jimmy Fallon thing? I think this is hilarious. Yeah, I saw it on social yesterday. Kim posted it, I guess Beats is doing a collab with Kim and Kim always does everything so perfectly well. Yeah. You know, all of her skims, colors are very sort of muted shades of beyges and just really pretty. So, Beats is doing a collab with her, but also they have decided to team up with Jimmy Fallon and sort of make it funny. So, it's Beats with Jim or it's Beats with Kim. Yeah, they did a whole video like sketch thing. They did. It was really funny. It's really like it's a lot of visual, but at one point, you know, Jimmy walks into the boardroom, he sneaks in, and he's watching the Kim video and there's been one versus the other. Yeah, and they start batching. So, as you know, we can only choose one set of headphones. Beats by Kim or Beats by Jim. Kim's are beautiful. Jimmy's are gross. Beats by Kim look amazing. I haven't felt this happy in years. All that from these headphones. Fantastic. Why would anyone willfully choose Jimmy's when Kim's exist? And what's the color? Mustard. A condoming? Jimmy's a big fan of hot dogs, so he wanted to pay tribute to that. My man looked like he need to lay off the hot dogs. I'm going up against Kim Kardashian. That's not fair. Her's are asleep. They're chic. They're iconic. Is the word you're looking for? Soon to be 31. And I guess you can vote. And then it will be announced on Jimmy's show tomorrow night. Yeah. Well, I think it'll be hands down. Of course. Yeah. Hands down. Did look good. I like that in there was a documentary on HBO about beats, headphones, Dr. Dre and Jimmy, Jimmy Ayaveen. And I don't know if you saw it, but there was a moment when they decided to do the headphones. And Dr. Dre wanted to do sneakers. He wanted to do a collaboration with a sneaker company. So he called Jimmy Ayaveen. He goes, I have this great idea. I want to make these sneakers. And Jimmy said, Dre, what are you talking about? You got to do speakers, not sneakers. You're a music guy. And that's where the idea came from. Wow. How many people do you think are on Kim's team? Oh, her marketing team, her management. Yeah, she had the payroll was long for her. Wow. It's amazing how big she is. And I have to say, like her skims line, we all have a few items. Yeah, that's good quality. Good quality, great colors. So then you're not skimping on anything. You're not skimping on design on quality. Yeah, I am. I know some skims. So do I. Yeah, at least I buy you the underwear for Christmas. Yeah, they're nice. I got to admit, they're smooth, right? They're really nice. I wore mine in a P town. Oh, God. I'm so weird. You don't even have underwear. I was on vacation. I like the skims, though. I want to get more. All right. I'll buy you more. Yeah, I'm back to underwear. Thanks to Kim. Okay. Yeah. I think were you waiting to tell us that? Like the I meant to show you. Yeah. Yeah, it kind of struck me as kind of odd as I went into the drawer. And yeah, I think I'll put my skims underwear on. I think it's fitting. Yeah. I mean, it was a gift from Lisa. So I typically probably wouldn't buy them, but you got them from me. I was like, let me try them. And they were, they're comfortable. Oh, so comfortable. Yeah, they're nice. I mean, they're good quality. I'm all about the quality. And I feel like everything that she does is good quality. Yeah. Do you wear them to bed? Okay. Why are we asking questions? Because I do. Oh, okay, Bill. That's great. Thank you so much. At least you changed my life. You're so weird. You don't wear underwear to work, but you wear it to bed. Yeah. Was I told you now that I have skims underwear, I think there's a reason to wear. I'm coming here right now. No, no, he's he's commando right now. Are you really? Well, yeah, he doesn't wear. Why wouldn't I be? Because you just said you love skims underwear and you want to wear it all the time. Make up your mind. By the way, that makes me think of something else. You know that really outrageously odd gift you brought me from Aruba. Oh, yeah. It's yeah. It's a giant. I still don't understand what you were thinking, but it's a giant wooden penis, right? And it suddenly hit me last night over dinner. I'm sitting there and I'm like thinking about, Oh, I left that in the cabinet at the office. You know what we never discussed yesterday about that giant gift? What if I had brought it home? I think I told you on the phone list. You did. What if I brought it home and I was pulled over? Yeah. And the officer said what's in the bag? Right. Yeah. Okay. It's very big. It's in your car. Do you also have weapons in your car? I prefer getting caught with the illegal weapons. No, but I ironically Gandhi used to work on the shows now on Z100 gave you the weapons. Oh, yeah. And Justin gave you the giant penis. Yeah. I mean, honestly, that could be a weapon itself. This is so many ways. Yeah. That's a assault with a dangerous weapon. Can you imagine if you got pulled? Yeah. What if I called one of you and said you're not going to believe this? I got pulled over him now in handcuffs. Well, I was kind of hoping that maybe you would just say that, you know, this is something I'm going to use in the privacy of my home. That's not your business. Yeah. But when you couple that with the weapons that the telescopic lead pipe and they would be talking about the turns into a sword. It's it's they're taking me in. And you know what? Who would know? You know, you pull up in the in the nice sports car. Like, Oh, look at this guy. Yeah. Fully loaded. Fully. Anyway, you can see the video of the gift. It's on my Instagram at just be easy. Coming up next the crazy wedding trends continue. This one has everybody talking, including us. We'll talk about it right here. I'm just going to wait next. Million Lisa kiss 108 to cut down on spending newlyweds, Nova and Remo styles got creative thinking of their nuptials more like a concert charging guests to attend their celebration. And I said, wait, people choose to go to Beyonce's concert because they know that they're going to have an experience. That's what the stress on the gas and let's go take a short wedding. I was like, baby. People aren't going to come. People did come. But there was also some pushback. I would never spend money on tickets. I don't care. What do you guys think you are? The ticket priced at $333 a piece, earning guests a seat on their double decker bus and a 12 hour adventure in New York City. Their strategy sparing them $70,000 in wedding expenses. Wow. So I just have one question for this couple. Were the guests expected to also give them a gift on top of paying for the ticket to attend the wedding? That's a good question. Because usually people, you know, you give money as a gift and then they use that to offset the price of the wedding. Right. A lot of times. Right. I mean, I initially thought when I saw the story that it was, you know, you were pre-paying, you were pre-giving your gift. Right. That's so you wouldn't have to give a gift. Well, because for a couple, it's over 600 bucks. Right. Yeah. Okay. But to be fair, if you go to a destination wedding, you're going to spend way more than $300. I don't think you should charge for our local wedding, but I also think some people do destination weddings now that are costing people thousands of dollars if they want to come to celebrate us. Aruba was full of destination wedding last week. There was so many. Every hotel. Yeah. Destination. It's a big business. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I will say that I was looking at some of the videos of it. They, it was a lavish wedding. So they basically used all the money they got, the $333 to get all these, these lavish things. But I guess it's a wash because they don't get gifts probably. And but they also didn't have to spend for the wedding. But is it something that the guests that paid they felt like they got a good experience? Like this was like a, like a, you know, they could dance and they ate and they drank. Yeah. I think that's what they presented presented it as an experience. Right. Well, they said 12 hours because most things are, what, five, six. So they could venture around New York City on this double decker bus and do some sightseeing and then go to the wedding. So you're committing to 12 hours. Cares. That much about anyone. People are this. I don't, I don't know. I'm back and forth because I think wedding culture in general is out of hand. Right. You don't. Totally. Like at this point, I'm all for like, just go to the courthouse and I just have a small little backyard. Yeah. Backyard and ceremony. Well, you did. Yeah. Wonderful. We did. It was nice. See a lot of money. Yeah. It was awesome. Yeah. I'm awful. I'm actually for this, actually, the experience. Well, recap for me. What do they get for the $333 per person? It's basically just, it's a seat on a double decker bus and a 12 hour experience in New York City. That's it. Plus you get to go to the wedding. So you're eating. It's probably, it was probably a good menu drinking. So it starts with a bus tour. Mm hmm. A double decker bus. It looks pretty extravagant. So if you're into that and you're into that kind of experience and I think this is for you. The only thing that bothers me about it is that it's just the way it's being packaged. Yeah. Like you're buying a ticket to people that you're supposedly close to, to experience their like love and union. Isn't that what a wedding is all about? So it kind of cheapens it a little bit. I'd rather just give them a gift that several hundred dollars and then have them just put that towards the wedding. Well, that's like, you know, the whole like honeymoon pot that people do now, like, Oh, just getting right into my honeymoon. Yeah. I think that's like, my mom is like, that's so gross to me. I'm not going to pay for your massage into heedy. Like I just think it's a mindset of like, maybe, you know, somebody like, Oh, I'd rather just give you cash and you can do what you want with it. Right. But somebody like, No, I'm not giving you money to go, spread on your honeymoon. Like, I don't know. Yeah. Here's the problem I have with that element, though, is like, once it comes to the honeymoon, you kind of forget who gave you what and what you're buying and like who gave you. Well, I think it could be nice if you did that. Like, if you gave them like a sunset dinner or cruise or something, and then the couple took pictures from it and then sent that to you as a thank you note or something. Yeah. Right. Like a picture from what you purchase for them. Yeah. Again, I just think the whole wedding culture. It's so out of control. It's outrageous, annoying, especially when like, we've talked with this many times, you have certain people that have so many friends that are getting married and all that. Yeah. You can't afford it. Like, you can't afford to go to all your friends' weddings. So the question is for you three, so it would appear yes or no. Would you would you pay money to go to your friends' wedding? I would pay twice as much to not have to go at all. Billy, I'm not even kidding. I'll give you what ask me. Give me a number. Billy told me that he goes, Winnie, if you ever get married, think about how much money I'll give you. Yeah. And then I'll triple that if I don't have to come and I said, okay. No, he went so so Bex that used to work here. Yeah. She was going to get married in her Philadelphia or New Jersey, which is from and we were all invited and Billy goes, I'll pay you triple, right? It pulls out his checkbook right now. Triple. I don't have to go. Tell me, I don't have to go, but you also have to be okay with it. Yeah. Yeah. Billy, you're giving me triple what I thought you're going to give me singly. I'll be just fine. Yeah. Lisa. I don't think I would go to this couple's wedding. No. I'm like slightly offended. I don't want to be friends with this guy. I would give them a lovely cash gift. Yeah. Right? Because again, it's like you're cheapening the experience here. It's their wedding. It's their union. I don't know. They call it like a ticket to a show. Right. Well, I got to watch you guys make out and him go find the gardener on your thigh. Like, no, thank you. And 12 hours later. So you're wearing your whatever you're wearing to the wedding you're wearing on the 90 degree double deck of bus running down your head. It's just not my thing. Right. Here's the thing about out of control weddings the way I look at it is they just think people like them more than they actually do. Oh, yeah. They really believe people want to spend 12 hours with them. Well, this is the fairy tale. This is what a lot of people dream of. Yeah. I would do it. Okay. I would do it. You would. And I would be with all my other friends. Yeah. Sure. Take my money. Who said they're all your other friends? You don't know half the people going to the other side of the family. You probably don't know. It's like half my friends. Now you're on a double decker bus with them. Yeah. Winnie, finally you. I go back and forth because people. Yes or no? For New York wedding. No. No. Okay. I don't know. I'm good. Where would you like it to be? Well, for instance, one of my really good friends get married in Mexico and that I would I'm going to pay to go because it's Mexico. That's a destination wedding. The destination wedding. I don't find New York to be a destination. All right. But what do you do is Boston and your friends that come right around in a duck boat? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm staying home. I'm staying in a Randolph. Yeah. I don't need to talk about. You better be careful in Mexico. I have a house in Mexico. So, you guys just need to be quiet because I know everything about Mexico. Oh, man. I wouldn't you love it if when he had to go to a wedding in Mexico and it ended up being in a flea trap. Oh, God. My friend is very bougie. She got a lagoon rash. Anyway, topic time is up next. You can give us a call 6179311108 or they can send you a dark bag, Justin. And to do that, you have to be listening on the iHeartRadio app, tap that red microphone and chime in. Come on. We love talking about weddings. Let's talk about weddings. Topic time is next. Wait, what is the topic today? We're going to be talking Billy and Lisa present topic time talk amongst yourself topic time. Okay. Couple of minutes ago, we announced the topic. We're talking about weddings and how outrageous some of them are getting and apparently now some people, some couples are charging or selling tickets to their wedding. I don't know, but it's a hot topic and it is topic time, Justin. It is, but also it's not just see if people that are just tuning in, right? I'm not defending what they're doing, but they're not just selling tickets to a wedding. It's it's a whole experience. You have to add that in. Not that it's going to make people do it more, but that's part of it. Right, but I guess it's so you're not being invited. You are being asked to pay a ticket price to get into the wedding. Yeah, which I mean, at first glance is gross. When you look at it, it's a 12 hour long thing. I mean, you're doing all they didn't go into all the things that you're doing, but they made it seem like it's this big experience. That's just one of you. You will follow people. I can't believe it's on board with this. You know what it is? I just I'm back from vacation and I'm all about this experience. Yeah, that's what I feel like Billy's credit card with you. I'd be into it too. I'd be all about it. Sign me up for everyone's freaking weddings. I agree with Winnie. I agree with Winnie. I think the wedding culture nowadays is so out of control. I've been engaged for about a year and a half now and we just haven't even planned anything yet because we just don't want to put ourselves into debt, planning a wedding. We have other friends planning one and we see how much they're spending and it's crazy. But on the flip side, I would never make people pay to buy a ticket to come to my wedding. I think that's crazy. It is crazy. And that's what happens to you. Go to a friend's wedding and you want to one up them when you have your wedding. It's like a culture thing. It's like, well, you know, they have this. We got to get this. You know what drives me crazy about the wedding thing is when the bride is, you know, oh, you can't wear this color. You can't wear, you know, you can't wear this type of dress. That drives me crazy. Yeah. Now you're getting into brides. I also think that it's not just the brides, but sometimes it can also be the parents. Yeah, chiming in and it's like what they want. And then all of a sudden the brides like, well, wait a second. But they're like, well, we're helping you pay for it. So we've got to invite this person and this person. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. There are early fights and arguments over who's invited who's not all. Well, you got to invite uncle to news. Yeah. Okay, who's uncle to news? It's so funny. I've never met him. It's so true. No, it's funny to see that because my mom this four of us and I've had two siblings get married and the first it was I get to invite all my siblings. She's one of 13. So all her siblings, plus who they're married to, that's like 25 people right off the bat. Her, her tune is changed. Now invite whoever you want, take whoever you want off the list. She's like, I'm not it's like not worth it to see who you like who has to be there who doesn't have to be there. Yeah, I mean, I gotta be honest with you. My, one of my best friends, Zeb, back when we got married, I had become very close with him. It was a new friendship. And we didn't have any more seats at our wedding. And I, I bumped somebody. I told someone they couldn't come so that Zeb could come. Oh my God. Is this after you invited them? Yeah. Yeah. Really? How did that wait? How did that conversation go? I had my wife do it, but basically it was somebody that wasn't really like close to us. We just kind of said there was an hour in the seating. Have you ever seen that person? I've never seen them again. See, I would love to be uninvited. Oh, I got invited like, like the week of. Yeah, that's my game. Yeah. Oh, hey, I was a Joe, Joe public. Yes. Joe Massey. He used to work here. He and, I worked underneath him as like an intern. Yeah. He was the best. Great boss. And the week of his wedding, I think he did numbers and knew he had action when I'd love you to be there. Oh, that's even worse than being canceled. And I, and I went. You want to see some words? I want if you're on a table like next to the kitchen door and swings open and shut and it's like, oh, God, I love how when he just put them right on blast. I know what he's like one of our partners. I love him. I know I was invited because someone couldn't show up. Oh, anyway, the morning morning crew on the topic of weddings. Why did it become a big what a whole you problem meeting? A couple of getting very, it's like they're saying, hey, you can't afford this extravagant bus tour towards their guests. That's what you call you problem. But in reality, it's never been that way. When you're throwing a wedding or a bed, you know, your money is going towards that and you're never going to see it again. Yeah. Yeah. But isn't the thought process that whatever you put into your wedding, you normally get back and you cash. You usually get a lot in cash or sometimes you're incredibly disappointed because you expected so much and you only got this much. It's all such an uncomfortable topic for me. I thought marriage about love. It is. That's what I said when you're a partner and very beginning. Yeah. You know what's important, the vows. Right. Just have a small ceremony. Yeah. Yeah. And you know, let's save the money you would have put towards the wedding and buy a house. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. I don't regret my wedding. But if there's one thing I would would have changed, I would have just had a big party. Yeah. And used all the money that we put towards it towards a house. Yeah. You know what I mean? Which a lot of people do. Good morning. And just was talking about the weddings. Yeah. I think it's just crazy what people spend sometimes. But my husband and I did work feeling like we wanted to spend a huge amount of money because at the time he was a grad student and I was 23 and working full time. And we ended up just going to the courthouse. My mom, my grandpa was there. We went to a really nice dinner afterwards. You know, my grandpa took us. Yeah. And that's sweet. See, I don't think it's about how much they're spending. It's about how much they're asking others to spend. We should ask what's out of control. We should ask our own Mikey V. Because he's having a destination wedding. All big to ask him these some questions that we have. And he already had a wedding party. Well, he had the party for people that I think couldn't go right to the destination wedding. He's getting married in the DR. Yeah. Yeah. But apparently it's not just weddings to its other kind of parties as well. So speaking about being charged to go with a wedding, I got invited to a birthday party in the fall where I have to pay to go. If you want to show up, you have to pay your ticket like almost three weeks in advance. And the cost of the ticket is $100. So basically, I'm paying for that party. I refuse to go. Yeah, that's hideous. Now birthday parties, you're selling tickets to your birthday party. Everybody wants to be Sabrina Carpenter. It's unbelievable. The people on people, the thing that I want to spend a hundred dollars to go to your birthday party. Yeah. When the other thing is too, like now they're asking people for money in advance, like this thing when you go on their website and they want money for the dinner on their honeymoon or they want money for the dinner crews, if they want to take a sunset cruise. And to me, it's like, okay, so you gave the money, but now when they're actually on their honeymoon, they don't know who's money they're spending on. So it's not your gift anymore that you gave. Let's go to the phones who's on the line. Jennifer. Jennifer, go ahead. You have a nightmare story? No, I'm talking about the wedding. Okay, go ahead. Pay for tickets. That's just ridiculous. I mean, the wedding is about the couple. My wedding, I had it during the Zika time. So I actually had a small dinner with our close family in Boston Harbor Hotel and then ended up doing a week in Bahamas with like 20 my friends for a whole week. We were there for a week and our friends just like came in, dropped in whenever they can or had like a big dinner at one at the restaurant by the in Nassau. And it was the best time. It was like a wedding and honeymoon combined. Boy, you've got some dough, Boston Harbor Hotel and then the Bahamas for a week. Yeah. And you know, the whole thing probably cost us 25K. But your friends that went to Bahamas, did you pay for them or no? Yeah, they paid their tickets, but we rented, we stayed on those like kind of semi-private beach and rented out most of the condos there. I rented out one at the house. So some of the guests, some of my friends were able to stay for free. And it was all like well-priced. So we ended up having like our own little beach, you know, rented kayaks and paddle boards and just had a blast. I don't think it's a lot to ask. Well, she said that she paid for some of it. Some of it. Yeah. Well, I don't know, Bill. It's wedding culture has changed. Yeah, it definitely has. The bar has been raised. Yeah, it gets higher every single day. It's my only. Oh, sorry. Go ahead. No, you go. No, you go. You're more important. No, you're more important. No, you are. I'm not saying it. I'm not playing. I'm not playing. I don't like children. Oh, he glossing over the fact that Justin just told us that he uninvited somebody to his wedding. That's the that should have been the lead story today, in my mind. We need to get back to that. I mean, correction, Justin did not invite somebody he had his wife do it. Oh, yeah. And now and now that person doesn't speak to you. No, no, no, no, no, no. That person, it wasn't really a big part of our, our life. Well, then who were they? Call it out. I can't get too many. Yeah, I have a question. Why did you invite them in the beginning? Yeah. Well, you know, the original list, you know, of who we're going to go into invite, you know, it was 200 people, you know, they were kind of on the lower end of it, you know, the bottom of the list. So then, you know, I got really close with my friend and, you know, we became best friends and I really wanted them in my wedding, but there was no seat for you. You couldn't add a chair? No, we tried. Wait, was there was it a family member or a friend? It was not a family member. It was a, I can't say too much. Was it a coworker? Yes, it had to do some with one of our friendlies.
