Speaker 1 (00:26):
H Matt, I'm gonna say it on the air. You
are one of the best journalists there is out there
right now. You are amazingly gifted means so and you
landed on a story and you found Parry Kim because
Parry Kim is local and somehow landed on the show.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Yeah. This is like two years ago.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
I was doing a story over at Porter Square on
the Red Line and this character came up to me
with so much personality, so much passion for the MBTN.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
I was like, this is amazing. Story didn't end.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Up making it to the air for one reason or another,
but I held onto that footage for years and like, gosh,
I hope I can meet this person again and like,
share her story, do something special. One thing leads to another.
I'm watching the trailer for Love on the Spectrum season three,
and I'm like, there she is.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Right, are in studio, PARI. Good to see honey.
Speaker 5 (01:15):
Good to see you too. Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
How you doing so good? Good so far. We're gonna
get you a nice hot breakfast.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Oh my gosh, thank you. I really feel celebrity.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
If you don't mind, Justin, can we play some of
match report with Parry?
Speaker 6 (01:29):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (01:29):
Are you part of the news?
Speaker 6 (01:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (01:31):
Oh my god, what's uck? What's going on?
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Hey, I'm Matt Sheerer from WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Okay, I'm Parry Can.
Speaker 6 (01:36):
I'm a huge fan of the MBTA. I just want
to say they see us. Thank you so much for
giving me a great way to get around Boston without
the cars. I just feel like free, like it can
go anywhere. And I wish everyone loved the t as
much as I do.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
So that happened back in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
Oh my god, it's like an underground kingdom.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I was working on a totally unrelated story and that
self proclaimed tea princess showed up like a party crasher.
Was so chill that.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Let's go.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
You did get to use that footage, but I always
wondered what became of that purple princess known as Parry.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
And then one day I was watching TV.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
I'm Parry, I'm twenty two years old.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Parry had been chosen for the hit Netflix DOCKU series
Love on the Spectrum.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Wow, well, Parry, we know how Matt got the story
through perseverance. How did you end up on Love on
the Spectrum.
Speaker 6 (02:26):
So what happened was someone I know from the team
music called it's a great chill, It's loco. You should
totally see it at the Rockwell Beater Davis Square. She
sent me a link on Instagram for a casting call
for season three, and so I looked at that and
then I emailed the producers and set up an interview
(02:46):
on Zoom. So that went well, and then as minute
after the interview ended, I literally got a call back
saying they want to fall through to the next step.
Things went from there and you could say the rest
is history.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Wow, and everything's going viral up to an including your piece.
Speaker 6 (03:03):
Matt.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
That's right. Yeah, I just hit a million views last night.
A million last night. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Oh, that's cool. Yeah, that's incredible.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
I know just a day later.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
No, but again, it's just all because Perry is just
such a lovable, fun character. Like if you've watched the
show The Perry that you see on TV, I can
confirm and you all can confirm now in this room
is the Perry you getting?
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Really it's authentic? Yeah, absolutely, thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I'm still not really clear matt on how you encountered
Parry for the first time.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Were you out looking for her? No, she came up
to me.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I was doing a story about the escalator and I'll
just say it. The escalator into Border Square, if you know,
it's like the longest eleator in the world, and when
it goes out, people have to walk up those massive staircases.
So I was just talking to random people and she
happened to be one of them, and she walked up
those really long stas to me and we were all
out of breath, like, how you doing, I'm good, I'm good,
(03:54):
and so it was great. And then the funny thing was,
so when I was setting up this follow up interview,
I want to do something special, so I asked the MBTA,
I'm like, look, she has had every MBTA experience ever
at this point probably been to every station. Is there
somewhere else we can take her? And they said, yeah,
we have this training facility that I guarantee you she's
never seen. We've got a blue line train down there,
a Green line, Silver line. She can sit in the
(04:15):
driver's seat, push all the buttons, and that was gonna
be it. But I guess they had to get approval
at the state level, and that's sure. Governor Moura heally
found out about this. And I've never told you this, Perry,
but apparently she's a big fan of yours, so she was.
She was originally going to try to be there too,
but she had to back out. She's a very busy governor.
(04:35):
So I said, well, man, is there somebody else, another
public figure who would want to come? I was like,
what about the mayor, Mayor Wu? And of course she
was down. And I had no idea that Perry was
such a Mayor Wu fan until we were riding the
tea to meet her, when I said, what's your dream
MBTA experience? And she said riding the tea with Mayor Wu,
having no idea that we were on our way.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
To meet her. Wow, And you got to ride the
tea with Mayor wu Parry.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Is so cool. Oh my gosh, I just can't believe it.
It's like, I guess stars struck around here.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
And I love how she's pro paly trance and she's
doing so much good for Boston. And I really think
it's that on her tap he was the mayor of
her city.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
And you got to meet her baby.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Yeah, so cute.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Even had a funny moment where she said she had
to change their folds because they had a little poops.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
It probably happened while we were while she was waiting
for us and shout out to the mayor for like,
you know, being very generous with our time. Things were
not running on schedule for on our end.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
So we got there. But she was so cool.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
She waited around and she met Perry and it was awesome.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
And your other dream. I think Parry is Taylor Swift.
How's that going?
Speaker 5 (05:44):
Oh my gosh, I would do anything to meet her.
She's my I do.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
I've loved ter ever since I was little. Her music
resonates to me so much. How she's listening, I hope
she'll take note to maybe come or follow me or
no on social media.
Speaker 5 (05:58):
She does have a house in Road Island. My gosh,
it's so pretty. I've been right near there. Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
And by the way, the Billy and Lisa Morning Show
is kind of a big deal, and iHeart is kind
of a big company. Who knows she might hear about
you making an appearance here and wanting to meet her,
and knowing Taylor Swift, she could very well reach out
to us and make something happen.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
I'm not promising about it. Who knows.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
I would love that my dreams to just come true.
My life would be complete a bit. Oh my god,
pop fangirl When I followed them back on TikTok on Instagram,
that will be me with Taylor Swift.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
So how has your life changed since meeting Matt Cher
and going on Netflix.
Speaker 6 (06:38):
Oh wow, it's just it's incredible. It's like overnight. My
followers have been like boom, skyrocketing. Like I went from
like eight K followers before the shelter now almost one
hundred and fifty k I think last I checked them
currently at one hundred and thirty nine K. My TikTok's
gone from three hundred falls to like fifty one k.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
Wow, incredible.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
One of my videos are actually now two of them
have reached a million views of just ones of me.
That's crazy. I'm just freaking out.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
I was like, oh my gosh, Now do you DM
most of your followers?
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Do you communicate with them at all?
Speaker 6 (07:19):
I try to get back to them. I have so
many requests, like I'm trying to answer all of them.
But yes, I like to DM with my fans and
interact with them to just show them how greatful I am.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
All their love and support. It means the world to me.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
How about with the Netflix show, have you gotten to
meet a lot of special people and have they become
friends or Oh?
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Yes, before aired, I got to go to la for
the premiere of it and I got to meet all
the main participants.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
It was a dream.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Also the producers too, and some of the Netflix pr people.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
Is really okay?
Speaker 4 (07:51):
You were on a Hollywood red carpet.
Speaker 6 (07:53):
Yeah, well except it was blue for hatis of awareness.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
They do it.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
That's so right.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Netflix is amazing.
Speaker 6 (08:01):
They are Oh my gosh, yeah, you follow me on Instagram?
Speaker 5 (08:05):
Not bracking, but.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
Yeah, who follows Netflix?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
They've got like fifty four million followers.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Yeah right, so Harry, Harry think's going with Tina.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
Oh terrific, Oh my gosh, she's just the best. She's
made my life complete. She's like the other half of me.
She's like the Green Line extension to buy Harder, the
Amtrak to my commuter rail. I say, she wears blue
and I wear purple, so it's like perfect, It is perfect.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Oh, I love that for you guys.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
You guys seem so I guess we couple. Thank you.
Speaker 6 (08:35):
Yes, she shares my energy and vibes, and she's outspoken,
an advocate for things she believes and and fights far
and I love that about her. That can just be
myself around her. I don't have to try to hide
anything I love.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I don't know if you have all seen the show yet,
but you know, I'm sorry for the spoilers, but Harry
is like the only one on the show who like
got it right on the first date. Yeah, where's everyone
else had to go through some duds and be like, sorry,
there's no connection.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Whereas Parry and Tina it was immediate.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
Sparks love at first side.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
It's cool for you, but were like, come on, we
need drama.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
So unlike the Bachelor and the Bachelorette, your love is real,
like this is lasting.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
Yes, that's what I love about the show.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
There's no drama, no cattiness, no like standards, Like it's
all just refreshing and authentic, Like we just get to
be our self and tew our story on their own terms.
And I think that's what makes the show stand out
such a fan favor, Like it's refreshing in the world
is so much drama, Like to just have something where
he can shine and everyone can feel good, like people
(09:36):
you want to root for.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
I gotta tell you, Parry, you are such a special person.
You light up a room when you walk in.
Speaker 5 (09:43):
You're so kind.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
But I have to ask why the tea all the things?
Speaker 5 (09:49):
And do you have a favorite route?
Speaker 4 (09:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (09:52):
Yes, so ever since I moved to Boston, I feel
like I've had so much independence because I don't want
to drive, and it's so glad I don't have to
because obviously we know I'm not driving in Boston. You
like why she even tries look at the traffic episode.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
True.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
Yeah, so I have independents. I could go on buses
and trains and just get to where I need to be.
I don't have to wait for someone to.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Just pick me up.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
It's just amazing and oh my gosh, all the friends
I've made and people I met. It's really opened up
a whole new stut doors for me. Some of my
favorite routes, so I really have the Red Line, it's
gone much faster, and you can't beat the view over
the lawn Fellow Bridge, and obviously the commuter Rail twos.
Speaker 5 (10:33):
It's purple. That's my favorite column.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
How are you not on the MBTA's payroll?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
You should definitely charge of marketing and advertising. And I'm
guessing you through your story, I'm guessing you've found a
friend for life with.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Absolutely, Yeah, for sure. She's so much fun to hang
out with. And I can't wait to go on more
tea ventures with you. Sometimes me too. Yeah, we'll bring
Tina along next time.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
Awesome us the other tea pri it's so funny.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
So Tina I went to have after watching the show,
I went to follow her and uh, a little unbeknownst
to me, we had messaged over the years, because I
guess she was already following me, sending me like story ideas.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
So now I'm gonna yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
So now we're gonna actually set something up where we
do an interview because she's interesting. She she uh has
a visual impairment, which she talks about on the show,
and she's got a story as well about accessibility in
the Wow, it's cool.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
So I'll tell you what, Parry. Uh, when Tina comes
to town. Uh, we as a radio program. We'll see
to it that you go to the concert of your
choice within resal, possibly Taylor, I said, possibly Taylor.

We'll make something.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Yeah, We're gonna make something happen, especially your first date
in Boston with Tina.

ever since i've I was little, and people said like, oh,

them wrong, Like impossible is not the same as difficult,
Like I know other fans that matter. I know it
can happen, even if it's hard. I'm not giving up
because look I where I am now, Like I never
(12:15):

Speaker 6 (09:16):
There's no drama, no cattiness, no like standards, Like it's
all just refreshing and authentic, Like we just get to
be our self and tew our story on their own terms.

such a fan favor, Like it's refreshing in the world
is so much drama, Like to just have something where
he can shine and everyone can feel good, like people
(09:36):
you want to root for.
