charity called dream day on Cape Cod at another event I had been at and I met the woman Heather and uh her business partner Steve who run it and it's it's basically uh they have a campsite in Nickerson State Park in Brewster and they host eight families um that have terminally ill or severely ill children like at Tommy's place and I guess from what I understand they can refer family and that right I know but I mean out in nature living so they have like kayaks that are filled with body that you can put it would be like a wheelchair on the front so these kids can get out on the water I mean it makes me cry when I think about it you know to have an experience that they wouldn't normally have and I just fell in love with it and so really want to get the word out for them raise as much as we can for them and just you know be a part of the community so not only is this Polar Plunge that is happening on um Sunday starting at noon and we're raising money for Dream Day on Cape Cod

watch us crazy people run into the water us on I am plunging sh us on oh are you yes this I've been plunging well that doesn't sound right at all you get in there I I remember the first time I did the Polar Plunge one of my writing students set it up and that was at Old Silver Beach but it was low tide so you had to go out 50 yards jump in oh no and then you run back and you feel like you got torture PL swimming through kale soup yeah torture plunge yeah that's the Portuguese sorry my Portuguese is hanging out what's up Gloria thanks for joining us this morning I've got Ted and Andrea here

correct it's gonna be a fun day yeah it's GNA be awesome yeah yeah well I mean it's the off season I think that us as cap Cutters are always desperate for stuff to do when it is drab it is miserable we are not getting the vitamin D that our body is requiring and we need to do something 100 to lose our minds we're shock ourselves into our into this our systems by flying ourselves into the water exactly like it's The Shining crying out loud can I officially call out Mo Cheeks absolutely because he's like I'm just gonna take pictures this year he's been plunging with me again that doesn't sound right he's been plunging with me for about eight yearsing together for a long time and now this year he's going to just take pictures come on Mo as I recall were you not both at his calendar release party I was not so supportive of that event I was there cuz I saw you on film there doing you know whatever T act like an idiot like the thing that he needed you to do exactly so so I think

mentioned on the show before she wrote nied and she's got a couple other projects that are under wraps I'm sure now she's sought after you know what I mean it's always that one that you've got to break through to have people notice who you are and notice your talent and get you know nomination for an Academy Award that's all you need just the little things but to have her have a student and and to have her go on to Greatness you can't help but feel that Pride like you are some part of shaping that I always say even if you weren't we take credit for it well that's the thing she walked in my class when she was nine and I was like by the end of that first day I was like oh this kid has it but but I I like to I don't even consider myself a teacher more like a coach Mentor yeah I see them and I'm like okay and then they become teenagers and some of them will go you know they'll be they I got tell you these kids absolutely adore his class to go to a sweaty ass shed in the summertime and hang out with Ted Murphy on your weekend and eat creamsicles and be like I'm joyful I would like to pay for this process and they love it and it's so good and I know firsthand with my daughter and how much her writing skills blossomed but also her as a human being in her thought process and having that space to just like be weird with Ted was great yeah I like get your weird out with that go on well well the whole thing is writing is I think it's one of the greatest therapies of all time and what I say to them what happens in the shack stays in the shack and it truly does because I have no idea what the hell they did in there they had a great time and Ted was like oh I don't know but I think I'm going to get her on this one and I'm like great but never actually divulged anything that they talked about there been times where you like have another tequila and tell me what's going on I'm like I can't I can't but I took not another Guinness not a tequil no but yeah um yeah I absolutely love it and I also teach now parents are taking the class I love the adults want in and they want a piece of Ted I have no comeback she kind like I don't even know what to say to her right

for you I know it's going to be September before I'm like now I'm looking for things to do what to do with myself and I'm fine I'm okay with the constant motion which is the person that I am I've left to my own devices it's not good so I work yeah no it's it's good to stay busy I actually have a question for you yeah do you ever sleep I do I sleep well I literally pass out like when my head hits the pillow I'm asleep wow to when like wake up my alarm goes off like I'm I'm done okay I have an alarm issue thing okay so how do you do your alarm do you done I'm up okay that's how I do it yeah so

said all right well we need to mark it to the mid Cape maybe we can get them to come and visit us be a tourist on your own little Island right absolutely up stations exactly so we were having this conversation and didn't realize that mashby had a cape league baseball team at one point I didn't know that at all right and then there was a little trophy from when we had won in 1948 and it was the names of the guys on the team and I was like this is cool I had no idea yeah especially since the Falmouth commodor just became Mash B chamber members and they're going to have a mash B night and they asked me to throw out a pitch that's so fun I'm so excited pitch or the first pitch the first pitch that'd be weird if it was the seventh there VI's coming aitch via's coming in she's never played baseball before let let let her throw so I'm going to need you when is it yeah you know um I don't know the the name of the date of the game okay but there'll be a little Mash pie section that is awes but then I told her I said commor has two M's and one is from ashp you're welcome we want a team we want to be part of a team um so I'm going to need you to help me throw oh I'll be there yeah Cape league b ball is amazing um they all end up in the major leagues I should host a player I know I think we're we're talking about hosting a player this well yeah because if they make it then you go that's what I told Cliff come on where are the good seats hook me up don't forget your family yeah we're your F you're part of the family now I want to get out there and go I I honestly have never been to a game what you're not alone so many Cape cters say they're we're going to go we're going to support it's going to be a great season and then summer happens you know I mean it get swept into the nonsense that we do and we forget to enjoy where we live right and we forget to enjoy the cool things that we are surrounded by so this is a challenge to you Cape cotters out there that are watching and Beyond do something in your town in your nearby town that you keep saying that you're going to do but actually do it this year come to Flapjack comedy yeah right when I was a little kid my favorite part of going to a fouth commodor game was when there was a foul ball yeah if you got the ball and brought it back to the concession stand y you would get a free hot dog it's a little things yeah nice one day I had four hot dogs that's awesome by the fourth I'm gonna eat it I was crawling for that fifth do it I'll never be in a hot dog eating contest it gross competitive eating makes me ill I it's a really hard to watch I know how they do it um I won the Cog eating contest one year for Cog Republic oh my gosh how many coh hugs not many thank you thank you were you the only competitor no he made it up himself he was by himself you know no I beat Mo I beat Mo Cheeks by half a coh hog and how I won it was four cogs Eric came out with a full tray of these cogs damic bans yeah yeah you know why cuz he was you know why he was leaving to go to um Foxwoods yeah so he was like yeah guys go do this get he goes I gotta get going and they were still steaming hot so so poor Mo I could see Mo he's like burning and there were like four other guys and I went like this with my my Pine a Guinness I poured it on all you animal kobashi that like dipped it in water that dumped in
