  • Unholy Matrimony
    Jun 26 2026

    Move over, Bridezillas — here come the "Cover Charge Brides." Some couples are charging guests anywhere from $10 to $1,000 or more just to attend their weddings! Unlike destination weddings, where guests may be expected to cover travel and lodging costs, these fees are simply for admission to the big day itself. Traditional wedding etiquette says the hosts pay for the wedding — not the guests. How would you react to a wedding cover charge? Would you still attend?

  • High Court Backs TPS End - Part 2
    Jun 26 2026

    Continued conversation about how the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration can move forward with ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for roughly 350,000 Haitians and about 6,000 Syrians who were permitted to live and work in the U.S. because of crises in their home countries. The decision overturns lower court rulings that had blocked the administration from ending those protections. The ruling is particularly significant in Massachusetts, which is home to one of the nation's largest Haitian populations.

  • Boston After Hours
    Jun 26 2026

    Boston City Councilor Brian Worrell is pushing to make the city's temporary 3 a.m. last call for bars and restaurants permanent after later hours were approved for the World Cup and America's 250th anniversary celebrations. Supporters argue the move would strengthen Boston's economy and nightlife scene, while critics have raised concerns about noise, public safety, and impacts on neighborhoods. Dan spoke with Councilor Worrell about his efforts to make the later last call permanent.
