And now it's time for the daily dustbag pledge.
Two dustbags and a microphone pledge.
I, Joe, or Jane listener, hereby promise to download every show.
I, Joe, or Jane listener, hereby promise to grab family members phones and download the
show from there.
I, Joe, or Jane listener, hereby promise to go to public computers and download the show

Here at Two Dushbags and a Microphone, we don't stand behind our journalistic integrity.
Go ahead and assume we got the story wrong.
At least we admit it.
Not like all those other guys.
We can and will lie if it makes the story better.
Two Dushbags and a Microphone.
We Talk.
Jesus.
And now, Deep Thoughts with Mark.
You know, nothing is on fire.
Fire is on things.
Hi all.
This is Chicago.
I am the most dangerous city in North America.
You can't touch me.
Oh yeah?
This is Kansas City here.
Hold my beard, bitch.
As much fun as an electric can opener to the scrotum.
Two Dushbags and a Microphone.
The apocalypse just happened.
You don't know what to do.
You don't know where to go.
But we can tell you what you can eat.
Wild asparagus is plentiful and easy to find.
It can be stewed with garlic and onion, which is both wild, which can be easily found in
a very tasty post-apocalypse food.
You can make this into a delicious stew.
This will hold you over at least for a couple of days until you can find some other food.
Two Dushbags and a Microphone.
I'm Mark.
And I'm Rob.
Hey Rob, how's it going tonight?
Ah, it's going actually pretty good.
Pretty good.
Good.
I'm having a good week so far.
That's excellent to hear.
Yeah, same here.
Everything's pretty good.
Don't really have anything to bitch about and if I did, it wouldn't be warranted.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
I did get kind of a break yesterday.
Why?
What happened?
Well, right before lunch, my big saw went down.
Oh.
I lost all the belts on it and stuff.
I put them back on and they just kept flipping.
So we ended up having to replace all the belts.
There were four belts.
And the foreman came up and ended up helping me.
We went to back off the tensioning bolts that hold the motor in place to keep the belts
tight.
And he snapped one of them so we had to hand cut it in.
That one out with vice grips.
Oh man.
Yeah, it was just a minute.
Yeah, but my saw was down half the day yesterday.
If anyone is out there, and I'm sure there's a few people.
It didn't go until like 8, 8.15 this morning.
Oh man.
I had a nice little break.
Oh that's cool.
And this is a big metal bladed chop saw, right?
Yeah, yeah.
It's a 20, it holds a 20 inch blade.
Yeah.
A bladed blade, like a grinding blade, but a cutting blade.
Yes.
This is a real deal.
Yeah, wow.
Yeah, yeah.
That sounds like a lot of work, dude.
But I'm glad you got it done and now you can get back to producing parts so people can
work.
Yeah, I had to bust my ass all day today to make up for the half day loss yesterday, but
hey, I'm good to go.
Yeah, we're there.
That's excellent.
Good.
I got in there, I did what I had to do, we're there.
That's cool.
That's on schedule.
Good.
Well, I had my phone situation figured out finally, got that to work in, and tomorrow
going to have a technician come over and figure out the internets that I've ordered a couple
weeks ago that will not, refuses to work.
And I think what it is is I think when they disconnected the fiber octave out in front
that they never did restore it.
And I think when I signed up for it again, I think they just automatically thought that
it was restored, but I don't think it was.
I think they took it out.
Yeah, they're sending signal, but it cut off, so you're not getting it.
Exactly.
Yeah.
And so I did everything I could.
I did the first year of thing, went to another outlet.
And like I said the other day, if I knew that this was going to involve a coaxial cable,
I would not have ordered it.
I hate coaxial cables.
I find them to be ridiculous.
I just don't think it's necessary in today's technology to have one.
But anyhow, you know what?
I got a great deal for a year with my phone, all of it bundled up and everything, so I'm
going to do it for a year.
I am so glad you got that straight out, because I was taking out the laptop of a bail money,
my friend.
It was getting close, Rob.
It was getting close.
Yeah, from the way you were talking to it, yeah.
Your Google Chromebook I've got right here, and I've been adding some stuff on it, and
I think that I'm going to add just all the software I can.
And then if you want to record bits or come up with your own sound effects or whatever,
you can too.
And you come up with an idea or something, and you're just like, you know what?
So anyhow, it's going to be good when I get it to you.
I can at least get it recorded, and we could do whatever.
On what?
Yes, and it's lightweight.
It's great.
So yeah, I think it's going to work very well for you.
And also, above all, when you're doing your podcasts, you have that, and your phone's
just your phone.
You have your screen there for everything else.
So you can do like me, all said, hey, what does Zimbabwe?
Where is Zimbabwe?
Hang on, Rob.
Oh, OK, it's South Africa.
You know, so you can do the same thing I do, and it really helps you out a lot on this
podcast, especially the way we kind of...
I could still do that on my phone.
Yeah, but it's not as...
That's how I end up helping you.
I switch over to Google real quick.
Oh, I know, but sometimes it disappears on you.
It's not as efficient.
Right, right.
I think that this will help you more.
So anyhow...
No, my problem is I need to figure out how to get rid of all the damn ads.
I don't have an answer for that, Rob.
Oh my God.
I have a little cell phone, and half my page of the story I'm trying to read is nothing
but ads.
The good old algorithms.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm getting sick of it selling to me everything that I said the day before.
Like right now.
Vintage sofas.
Tomorrow, I will get 10 ads for vintage sofas because it listens to me.
And I do it yourself.
Say something weird.
Zenith.
Black and white TVs.
It'll be up tomorrow.
So...
If you come up with a 1972 olive green couch, I want it.
You just said it, so I'm pretty sure I'll get an ad for it tomorrow.
So yeah.
I'll see if I can get an ad or a pop-up on mine.
Yeah, probably both.
So anyhow, I went to the doctor today.
I'm down another 10 pounds.
I'm pretty happy with that.
I'm starting to get to where I need to be.
Thank you.
Getting to where I need to be.
It's always a constant struggle, a constant battle, but I seem to be winning at least
right now.
So anyhow, all my blood work was perfect.
So I'm pretty happy.
I'm very happy with that.
Let me say this.
I'm very happy with that.
My cholesterol is really low.
So you know what, man?
Thank you God.
That's all I got to say on that.
So anyhow, I guess we'll go ahead and get to the first third.
That sound good?
Let's do it.
All right.
Again, and the dumb shit's throwing away, department Rob.
All right.
Yeah.
Yep.
You notice I'm doing this in everyone.
So...
Yeah.
You can now order on Etsy a Simpson-inspired family photo.
Yep.
In an animated photo likeness of you and your family, but only yellow and with odd shaped
heads.
So if you got the cast to burn, there you go.
You want to portray them?
Actually, in some families that would be cool.
Yeah.
Yeah, I guess so.
You know what?
I was a little harsh there.
I mean, if your family's big into the Simpsons, which a lot of people are.
You know what?
You're right.
They wouldn't have survived as long as they had.
That would have been the perfect gift.
They actually...
Yeah.
They open it up and go, oh my God, man.
We're all Simpsonized.
And not a lot of people know about this.
Yeah.
Oh, that is a great idea.
I wonder if they...
I bet you they do.
Rob, I'm good.
You got a great idea.
I might do that for Christmas cards now.
So I guess I'm one of the idiots throwing away money now, right?
Well, see, my problem is I've always came up with these ideas.
I've just never collected on them.
I know what you mean.
I know what I mean.
I know a friend that collects on ideas what he does.
And I can't go into it too much because he's got a lot of litigation going on this last
one out in California.
But he comes up with ideas and he patents them.
And then his lawyer says, hey, these people in Arizona are building your patent.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
They don't know it.
They're not making money yet, but as soon as they make enough money, we're going to
sue them and we're going to take everything they got and plus all the rights.
Right.
And he's made a really good living off of doing that.
And I don't expect him to stop anytime soon.
So and he may listen.
So if you listen, I'm giving you the thumbs up on that shit.
So anyway, you got a double thumbs up here.
Yeah, it's brilliant.
He doesn't he doesn't figure out how to manufacture them or nothing.
He just sits back and lets them for about 10 years.
And he's like, that money you're making, it's mine.
So anyhow, but usually what he does.
As long as you're legal about it and you have the patent there.
Yeah, it's totally legal.
There's nothing they can do about it if you own the patent.
So anyhow, what he does is he said he usually reaches in the middle.
He'll go, all right, well, you have all this money invested in all these manufacturing
facilities doing this.
You have the distribution platform, all this stuff.
You cut me in for half of it and we're good.
If you don't, I'm going to sue you and take everything.
You see, isn't that brilliant?
Everybody else has the headaches of shipping, the platform, all that stuff, how to manufacture,
you know, most cost effective way.
And he comes in later after it's all done and says, ah, that's mine.
And then they just cut.
He said usually they'll settle for something like he usually gets about 40 percent or something.
And you know, so anyhow, let's see.
So where was I?
Let's see, the prices differ with portraits and suppliers.
You know, the stone.
So anyhow, it just depends on, you know, if you have like 10 kids and, you know, mom and
dad and Uncle Bernie or something like that, right.
Then it'll cost more.
And then Etsy has different people that contribute to it.
So you know, it's all depends on what you want and how much it'll cost.
So I can't give you a firm cost on that.
Rob, you know, the Rolling Stones are on tour again.
I read that they're 80 ish, 82, 80, 81, something like that.
Right.
You know, I remember back in the 80s, remember the comeback named the Steel Wheel Tour?
You remember that one?
Yeah.
Yeah, it was a huge tour.
OK.
Well, I'm thinking this one should probably be named the Steel Wheelchair Tour.
Oh, you got it.
Yeah.
Instead of whatever I forgot is some sort of I forgot some sort of company.
Anyhow.
Yeah.
It's like being a paid sponsorship of them.
But anyhow, it should be the Steel Wheelchair Tour.
All right.
I read about the sticker.
The director is going to live forever.
Oh, yeah.
God, yeah.
I think I think he survived.
I think they proved he survived Hiroshima.
He was in the middle and he's OK.
He was over there on tour.
Yeah.
He was doing a solo tour.
Yeah.
The bomb landed like five foot from me.
What I heard.
Yeah.
Disintegrated his whole solo band, but he just stood there smoking a cigarette and he
was fine.
His cigarette was still in his mouth.
Walked right away.
He turned.
Yeah.
He just kind of brushed his jeans off a little bit, some dust, you know, so he was all right.
The other day, I read a bumper sticker that said this, Rob.
Your driving is so good, it makes my middle finger have an erection.
Not bad.
I need to have one of them made.
You can find it online.
I looked it up online.
They sell them.
OK.
I'll find it.
I thought that was awesome.
Rob, you know, the new craze is Mayo on a hot dog.
Actually, I read that.
But you know what?
I've been doing that for years anyway myself.
Yeah.
You know what?
I got the thinking it's basically lunch meat in a round form, right?
Yeah.
What I do is I put the Mayo along the bun, both sides, inside the bun, and then I put
some mustard on it, then my hot dog, then some ketchup.
I think that's great.
Now, I got one question.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Do you use sweet relish or do you use dill relish?
Do you have a preference?
I prefer sweet.
Me too.
I'll take whatever I got.
I mean, I'll do dill, too.
I will, too, if that's all they have.
It doesn't matter as long as I got some type of pickle to put on it.
Yeah.
So yeah, that's the same here.
I'll throw a kosher dill on top.
I don't care.
Oh, yeah.
I should go ahead and put some dill on it.
I'll put some dill on it.
Oh, yeah.
Chicago style.
Nothing wrong with that.
They're good, too.
You know, but actually, I'm thinking that I or anyone with a life doesn't really give
one else a shit about this, right?
Yeah.
You know, go ahead.
Slather that greasy mayo all you want.
So yeah, it doesn't bother me.
I do it, too.
I mean, I'm going to try it.
I've never done it before.
Just for the record, just for the record, to me, it's not mayo.
It's Miracle Whip.
Oh, completely different.
Completely different.
And I can totally see Miracle Whip, where mayo is kind of a, I guess.
But yeah.
Miracle Whip has a little tanginess, and that's what I like about it.
Yes.
Yeah, that's what I mean.
I think Miracle Whip would add a little spice to it, you know, a little zip.
So OK, I see that.
All right.
Feel free to email us.
You like mayo or not, or you think we're fucking crazed assholes or whatever.
Well, you already think we're crazed assholes.
Do you like mayo or not?
Just send an email.
So anyhow, slather that thing up.
That's all I got to say.
You know, the average person has 83 group chats in a year.
Eighty three of them.
I'm way below average, Jim.
Me too.
I hate them because they go off all night.
Some idiots up at three in the morning with insomnia, scratching their ass, go, I'm going
to tell this joke.
All of a sudden, you're lying there being, oh, shit, what's going on, man?
Family hurt something.
Oh, that motherfucker.
You know, you know, it just sucks.
So yeah, I whenever someone puts me in them, I put myself out of them quickly unless it's
something very important, like someone's having an operation or something.
First thing I do is leave that chat.
Is that what you do?
Yeah.
Well, normally for me, it's like my brother, my mom and me.
And you know.
I understand you guys need to communicate.
Yeah.
And then I get out of it as quick as I can.
Yeah.
Yep.
I'm the same way.
If it's like something really important, like someone's having an operation, a family member
or something, we'll all be on that.
And then as soon as I get the all clear, boom, I'm gone.
You know, none of this.
Oh, man, I'm glad that turned out good.
None of this.
Well, I wonder when the follow up is.
I'm like, OK, bye.
So you know, and they explain it by people trying to organize plans.
I say just do this, Rob, the old fashioned way.
Don't say shit until they make an effort to call you.
Right?
Right.
Yeah.
Then making an effort to call you proves that they give a shit enough to get this from you.
So I'm saying don't volunteer it.
If they want to know, they'll ask you.
And don't bring a bunch of people that have nothing to do with it into it.
So that's just my thought.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Yep.
I'm a one on one person.
Yeah.
Yeah, me too.
Basically.
And like I said, there are special reasons and all that.
But outside of that, don't don't bring me in a group chat just to go, hey, did you hear
about the monkey that climbed that?
You know?
No, no, no, not me.
I have a message to all ghosts.
If you can pick up and slam shut cabinet doors, you have enough.
You will have us both haunted.
Oh shit, you're right.
I can't tell my pun now.
Go ahead.
I'm already haunted.
Go ahead.
If you can pick up vases and you can slam shut cabinet doors, you have enough strength
to pick up broom and a mop.
Fair?
Fair.
Look, dude, they're sitting around bored anyhow.
That's why they're spooking you, right?
It's like while I'm asleep at three o'clock in the morning, you're at the way.
Yeah, maybe clean it.
Yeah.
If I wake up and you're just sitting there going forward, throwing the toaster on the
ground, we're going to have some fucking issues.
Now, if you're in there mopping, you know, we can be friends.
Hey, Casper, what's up?
And I'm just mopping.
Thanks, man.
Appreciate it.
Oh, you can't eat.
I was going to offer you.
I can't drink.
I was going to offer you a beer and I don't know.
I had some leftover French toast.
Forget it.
I forgot you guys don't eat.
All right.
I'll be in my bed.
Thanks.
Yeah.
If you do that or get out and get your ass a job, start paying rent.
How about both?
All right.
I'd just be happy with some help with the housework.
Me too.
You know what?
Let's not get greedy.
Start with a mop and a broom and we'll work our way from there.
Yeah.
So.
I mean, I do know the manager at McDonald's down here.
I get your job.
See?
Flipping burgers.
Yeah.
You could be like.
Yeah.
There you go.
Or you can come be my helper.
Or hey, imagine this.
Hey, that would be cool.
Yeah.
Steel float through the air.
That would be cool.
You and I have them do is I would take a bar and smack people in the balls with it.
So all they do is also they're working and they see this bar float and getting them.
Oh shit.
Man, that bar is getting there.
He's going to crack me in the balls.
It only knows it's a floating bar that cracks people in the balls.
You're like.
I know.
I know at least two, three, four, maybe six guys.
It works and be in trouble.
I know a lot of people out of love even, not just the people I hate.
We have practice and stuff like that.
They don't.
And you can see like someone text another guy, watch out the steel bars in room A. Oh
shit.
I'm going to stay away from there.
And other guys like, oh man, I got it, man.
He cracked my balls.
Yeah.
Excellent, man.
That would be cool.
Anyhow, let's see where the fuck was.
Okay.
Oh fuck.
I don't know.
I don't like it like always.
We get so sidetracked.
Anyhow McDonald's is testing a new ice cream.
It is called Choco Scoop and Strawberry Scoop.
This is an attempt to have a vegan treat for its customers.
No, it's vegan.
So it depends on how you feel about that.
Me, I'm not so fond on this non-dairy ice cream stuff.
I just don't think it tastes that good.
So anyhow.
Oh, I heard chocolate and strawberry.
Yeah, me too.
That's why I wrote down this article.
It suckered me in.
I'm like, man, hey.
And then I'm like, oh.
But it's vegan.
Yup.
Nah, nah.
No, I'll just go ahead and get the dairy.
Dairy does not bother me.
So.
Yup.
Me either.
All right.
So far it's getting rave reviews from the people who have tried it.
I could have told everyone that it would be great.
I mean, look at the chicken nuggets, right?
Think they're real?
Hell no.
So why should their ice cream be real?
Same thing.
Allegedly, chicken beaks and assholes.
Sure.
Okay.
Plus, no annoying ice cream machine to break down.
Right?
Right.
Yeah.
So you don't have to worry about cruising through their native.
Sales may go up at that point.
Yeah.
I mean, Tofu reported on this a long time ago.
A guy came up with a system to find out if he kind of hacked into the McDonald's system
or something to find out if their ice cream machine was working or not.
And he would promptly send a message on this website and people go on there and go, oh,
the McDonald's on 75th and all is ice creams broke.
What about the one on I-35 and I don't know, 37th or whatever.
Oh yeah, that one's up.
Okay.
I'll go there.
And anyhow, he got sued and shut down.
So.
Um, anyhow, yeah.
Um, let's see.
Where was I again?
Ah, okay.
Hey, that was all you.
I thought I didn't say a word.
Okay.
You know, the ice cream machine has broken about 80% of the time.
So you know what?
I just go by numbers, you know, I'll, I'll go by and just like, see if it's working.
If it isn't, then I know that I have to wait another four or five hours and it might be
working again.
So anyhow.
Um, but usually I forget and I don't.
So all right.
Favorite hot dog toppings in America.
According to Nathan's famous hot dogs, 47%, 47% is mustard.
I could have guessed that mustard does seem to be the favorite, doesn't it?
That's not what I would figure would be the top.
Ketchup is ketchup is 30%.
I figured ketchup would have been on top.
I thought so too, but I think I do see more people use mustard on it actually.
Um, but anyhow, yeah.
I mean, either one of them, they're both really good on there and I like doing both, but,
but seeing how this comes from Nathan's, I believe them.
Yeah.
And chili is 5%.
Me I like all the above.
So okay.
Well I didn't know that was even in the running.
It was in the running.
So which is weird because Nathan does not touch chili on their hot dogs.
If you go the one in New York.
Yeah.
Number one.
Oh yeah.
Yep.
I agree.
Nathan's rep was on Anderson Cooper show to promote their hot dog eating contest.
Apparently has never had mustard on his hot dogs before Anderson Cooper.
Well, he reportedly loved the wieners.
Oh wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
That didn't sound good.
I'm sorry.
Ah, I meant hot dogs.
I meant hot dogs.
So moving right along.
Finally his finally is radio as we know it dead.
I tend to think now think about this, Rob.
I mean, look at everybody.
I was listening to podcasts, music.
I mean really.
I was listening to Bubba's show Monday I think it was.
And like they're like one of their big talk stations just completely shut down.
Now it doesn't hurt Bubba because he does all this internet stuff and people send him
money.
You know, it's kind of like a paper play thing, you know, like a big Jerry Lewis Telethon
type deal and it works for him really well.
They came up with this platform way ahead of anybody else and it's working very well.
Now everybody else, I mean like people, if you do have a job in radio are getting like,
I don't know, a tenth of money they used to and they're replacing it all with automation.
One person does 40 markets and all this stuff.
So do you think do you think that radio is dead or do you think it will have a comeback?
You know, are people going to get tired of all the technology and go, you know what,
I just want to hear one on one the Fox.
What radio is going to, from what I personally am seeing and I think you will agree and I
think that's what you're trying to say.
Yeah, go ahead.
Is it commercial radio.
Yes.
It's going to end up being more like elevator music.
You get in the elevator, they do not play music.
There's going to be no talking, no nothing other than commercials.
I agree.
The human beings are going to be gone.
All the personality went to the internet.
Yeah.
And now you have people coming along that to be honest, don't have the personality that
the older generation has.
No, they're all politically correct.
I think you're right in my opinion too.
Some of the younger ones because you know, just the way society is.
Well they've been so shot down and kicked around whenever they do anything out of the
box, people are afraid to look at the, I mean people are afraid to do anything anymore because
people are going to freak out and try to shut you down.
And above all, these huge radio entities are scared to death of lawsuits and stuff like
that.
So you know, all these personalities had to go to the internet.
But here's what I think though.
I think in larger urban areas, I think radio is dead.
I think there's all the technology there and everybody has a smartphone and everybody gets
signal.
Okay.
But I think like, let's say Kansas city or St. Louis or Denver, okay.
There they're not going to have as much listenership per capita as small town USA.
I think small town USA radio is still doing fairly well.
I think the people are still, yeah.
Cause you're down there in Camden, a lot of people are close to the radio personalities
right and they're close to the.
Well now at the same time, like at work, everybody plays their music lists.
Oh on Spotify and all that.
Whether it's I Heart, whatever.
Yeah.
Okay.
You know what?
That of listening to the actual radio.
You know what?
I think I'm wrong then.
I was trying to give radio a little bit of credit, but I think you're right.
I think everywhere people are just.
Yeah.
I mean that's down here.
Now there are people that won't turn on like our locals 935 or you can pick up 96, seven
out of Columbia, which is an awesome station.
That's, I like that station a lot.
And I also like their morning show a lot for a smaller market.
They're really good.
Yeah.
They're actually funny.
They make me laugh.
Yeah, they are.
And they're a couple of down home grown boys.
Yeah.
You can tell they kind of grew up around there and they kind of got that mid Missouri sense
of humor.
You know, they could tell you how to buck hay, but you know, but also they can entertain
you in the morning.
I thought they're very good.
I forgot their names.
Classic rock station.
And also I liked their playlist.
Their playlist is excellent.
Yeah, I mean to me, I like them better than 101 the Fox here in Kansas city.
I think their playlist is quite a bit better.
So what do you think?
Do you like it better?
Honestly, I think I play with lives.
Yeah, I would have to add them out.
Yeah.
They play a few certain songs and I'm not going to get into them, but that you never
hear one on one, the Fox even touching anymore.
Right.
It's kind of a little bit more like the old K.Y. where they played certain songs.
They go a little newer.
Yes.
Yeah.
A few years newer.
Yeah.
They play some of that 2000s heavy stuff and all that.
Yeah.
I mean, what we think is heavy.
I mean, you know, so not like death metal or anything.
They also play the same as 101 the Fox.
Yeah.
I think that kind of shuffle thing really suits them well because I know in radio you're
supposed to get one demographic and hit it hard and then all your advertisers.
Oh, you got every you got 60 percent of all the males in Kansas City, 25 to 34 listening
to you in the morning.
OK, we are going to sell that.
You know, I mean, Harley's, you know, Doritos, you know, all this stuff that that's well,
I don't know about Doritos, but that is male skewing of that age is going to be on that
guy's show.
You see, I know you're supposed to do that, but I think in a smaller market you have that
where you have each radio station having a little bit more of a playlist because they
don't have to follow the guidelines so much.
So anyhow, you know, and I mean, even farmers now, I at first I thought, you know, people
in those in those big combines and stuff, everything is digitized in there, too.
You can pick up Internet radio.
You can even have your own Wi-Fi creator in there that creates your own Wi-Fi out there.
Do you know that?
Yeah.
So you'll always have Internet connection no matter where you're digging up the crops
or, you know, or spading the ground or whatever plant and seed doesn't matter.
And why wouldn't a farmer want to hear George Jones and Chet Atkins, you know?
I'll tell you what, you know, my grandparents had a farm outside Harrisonville.
And I'll tell you what, back in the late 70s, early 80s, I climbed on grandpa's tractor.
We were big shit because we had an AM radio.
I remember you.
We were in the 61 country.
Yeah, 60 number one country.
That was a great station.
And I didn't like country, but I love listening to them.
They had so many good personalities.
Remember Sky Spy?
He used to yell at people, Hey, I-35, what the hell's wrong with you guys?
Keep them moving.
Yeah, it was funny.
He would yell at the drivers.
The guys broke down, man.
Leave them the hell alone.
Keep going.
You don't need to look at him.
Look at the damn road.
I mean, he was awesome.
Yeah.
Now imagine him these days.
He'd have a heart attack in midair.
Yep.
Imagine who was the guy, the country sounding guy that used to come on there and do the
jokes.
I mean, he was national.
He did little snippets.
Oh shit.
Earl Pitts.
Earl Pitts, yeah.
Yeah, Earl Pitts was great.
He was funny as hell.
Yeah, Earl Pitts.
My dad loved him.
I liked him too.
My dad liked him better than Paul Harvey.
I liked Paul Harvey the best, but Earl Pitts was fantastic.
Yeah, I did too.
I liked him too.
My dad liked him better than Paul Harvey.
I liked Paul Harvey the best, but Earl Pitts was fantastic.
I liked him too.
Yeah, Earl Pitts was fun.
And they played Paul Harvey on 60, number one country too.
Yeah.
Let's see.
Didn't they have Chicken Man, the Adventures of Chicken Man or something like that?
Yeah, I think so.
I think I remember that.
Adventures of Chicken Man.
I think it was 61.
Yeah, yeah.
And we have a, I don't think it was KY.
I'm pretty sure it was 61.
It could have been WHB when they were rock, but Chicken Man was on one of them.
You think maybe that.
You know what, I'll look it up later.
It might have been WHB.
You see, my mom, my dad listened to 61 and my mom listened to 71 WHB.
Okay, wow.
What a time that was.
No, I got up with both worlds.
And then we moved into the world of SM.
Yep.
And then that's where the...
Boy, they lost me after that.
Yeah, that's when Super Q and KY were battling.
Remember Super Q?
Super Q was 104.
KY was 102.
And 104 was more poppy.
And KY was more album oriented rock, if you will, or album rock.
And they used to battle.
Album rock, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And Super Q used to have that big bold advertisement.
And they had the big Q. And then KY had the hippo.
It was just great times.
So anyhow, we'll just go ahead and go on that.
Now in the just go away department, Rob, Hulk Hogan has a new premium logger.
I'm so sick of this asshole clogging up space that could be used for someone relevant.
I'm tired of him.
He needs to go the fuck away and stay the fuck away.
I'm sick of the self-righteous bullshit coming from his pie hole, allegedly.
Always thought it was so convenient to jump to the religion card after being a dirty dog
and getting caught.
I'm not dogging him for being a filthy.
We all have things we won't want public.
I'm just saying you do something considered questionable, it gets taped, and then you
go after the guy you were co-signing with and the whole embarrassing matter.
I think it's bullshit.
I think the guy's a fraud.
I think he pulled the religion card to make it look like, oh yeah, I used to be like that,
but I'm not anymore.
This is my opinion.
My opinion.
All this is allegedly, you know.
But I think, I don't like him.
I want him to go away, you know.
He's doing all this stuff and trying to be somewhat relevant again and try to sell this
stuff.
No, man, he just needs to go away, in my opinion.
In my humble opinion, he was not the victim and he needs to stop that.
I'll never touch his new beer.
Now, go away, brother.
Your thoughts?
Okay.
I see where you're getting going there.
Uh-huh.
I mean, if he's supposed to be this great guy, why are you pushing beer?
Another good one.
You're supposed to have these kids be physically fit, but you're pushing beer.
You know what, Rob?
I even overlooked that.
I was looking at all the other stuff.
Hulk Hogan Fentanyl coming soon.
Yeah, he should have been sponsoring children's vitamins.
Not beer.
Dude, I've been calling him a fraud for years.
Yeah, I've never really was convinced about him in the first place.
You know, I used to listen to Bubba's show on the internet.
Yeah, I never did live in Florida, but when he used to come on the show all the time,
it just seemed to me like he was trying to get free shit or promoting himself or his
daughter.
Yeah, he's probably doing it just because of his alimony.
Probably.
He owes his ex a good penny.
Oh shit, yeah, I think she might have got like 70 or 80 percent.
I don't know.
That's just allegedly that's what I read.
I don't know if it's true, but those are our opinions.
If you love Hulk Hogan, great.
That's fine.
Go buy his beer.
Whatever.
Just remember, take your vitamins and drink your beer.
That's right.
Hulk said to, brother.
Brother.
Rob, I found a new station I really dig.
Really?
This thing is dynamite.
It's a newer station on Sirius XM named Ozzie's Boneyard Deep Cuts.
This thing is phenomenal.
Oh.
Oh, have you heard it?
No, no, I was going to write it down, but I don't have a series.
Oh, well, you know what?
You can get a...
Here, here's what you do.
You can get a free 90-day subscription by going online and just pilfering through their
stuff and it'll say free 90-day subscription.
Put in your email and check it out like that.
You get 90 days and then you decide if it's worth $9.99 a month to keep.
I think it's worth $9.99 a month because of these radio stations.
Just remember to block that god-awful Howard Stern channel and you'll be fine.
You won't have to remind me.
It's like having a really good set of songs on permanent shuffle.
You know, I mean, it's really good.
They play stuff that I've never even thought would ever be played on any sort of a radio,
even satellite radio, cable radio, whatever you want to call it.
Internet radio, you don't even hear it that much.
It's really refreshing to hear stuff like that as opposed to the same old on all station
here, station there, and even on satellite.
A lot of that stuff is the same.
Oh, you listen to Ozzie's Boneyard and they pretty much went across between 101 The Fox
and 98 a lot of times.
I mean, it's just, you know, I don't know.
It's disappointing.
But then I found this new station.
I'm like, this is where the good music moved to.
And then Ozzie's Boneyard has like all these different interviews.
They have Ozzie Says or Ozzie Speaks and they have Billy Morrison with Ozzie.
Then they have Jim Florentine and they have all these other with all this talk.
And all they want to do is listen to music when I turn it to that entity, that whole
thing there.
So anyhow.
All right, Rob, let's take our first break, even though we're going on 40 minutes here
and we're going to come back with your stuff.
I was just looking at that.
We're ripping away.
I'm going to let you go, man.
I'll just let you go.
It sounds like it's a good night.
Oh, I've had a lot of piss and vinegar last couple of days and it started with my phone
and is ending with my Internet.
Oh, and the and the rock garden and the rock garden that about broke my back.
So anyhow.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's half done, but I hurt like hell.
Oh, and my doctor's my doctor's appointment in between.
So anyhow, but the doctor's appointment went great.
Thank you, God.
Next up, things overhead in hell.
Hurry up.
King Jong-un is playing Santa at the mall again this year.
Yay.
You do bags in a microphone, raw and uncensored.
See behind the smoke show.
Watch as the douchebags get stung by a
wild boar.
Watch Mark revisit Clinton, Missouri to claim his innocence for all the man shitter accusations.
Act now and get both high quality DVD sets and a free douchebag calendar.
Mark off today with a douchebag looking at you.
Supplies are limited, so act now.
I think we found land.
Oh, my God.
I think we're safe.
Oh, no.
What did the janitor say when he jumped out of the closet?
Supplies.
Our constant pursuit for a real knee slapper.
It's strange insults from an alien.
Real hilarity.
I've seen salads that dress better than you.
Hey there, fuck stick.
You're just in time for brand new feature news nobody gives a shit about.
At any given airport, at any given 60 seconds, you're actually breathing in at least a little
more than three farts.
I can't believe the coffee grinder is broke at the big box store.
There's no way I can be expected to grind my coffee beans every damn morning.
I'm Mark.
And I am Rob.
All right, Rob, Brad.
Oh, I forgot to tell you, I need you to do a couple of bits after this program.
Is that cool?
I mean, just a couple of sentences.
Two sentences is all I need you to do.
Anyhow, you'll love it.
You'll love it.
All right.
We turn to you.
All right, what?
Okay.
I was waiting for this cue.
Okay, sorry.
I think I did all my energy in the first 40 minutes.
Now I'm like, go ahead.
Well, good thing I still have all mine saved up to give you a little break.
There we go.
Thank you.
Okay.
This was a story that came out today and it's a Light of the Ozark story.
Okay, cool.
We love those.
And that's a good one.
Okay, good.
Okay, it starts out, lights, camera, action.
Okay.
The cities of Osage Beach and Lake Ozark have agreed to a deal with a company by the name of Lucky Eight Productions, LLC,
to come to roll the cameras for a documentary series about police officers.
At Lake of the Ozarks?
Yes.
That's brilliant.
Any city dollars does not commit any city resources,
but this will allow Lucky Eight TV to feature the Osage Beach Police Department
and its officers in a TV show tentatively set for a major national cable liner TV network.
Okay, it doesn't say what network yet.
I think that's a brilliant concept.
Osage Beach attorney Cole Bradbury.
Okay, so he's the one that made that statement.
And then it says, representing Lucky Eight spokesperson, Alicia Green says,
the focus of the docu-series is to shine positive light on officers who are willing to work with the production company.
Lucky Eight got turned onto Lake of the Ozarks in light of recent COVID-based flimicity.
Uh-huh.
Plans are to have the cameras rolling for the first time here in Lake area over the July 4th holiday.
I think I know what they're referring to and you know the situation.
I know exactly what they're referring to and I don't know if I like this.
Now, yeah, that's what I was getting ready to say.
At first I liked it, now I don't.
They're showing the defiance and all that, all the people at that Landsharks bar.
Remember in the height of COVID?
Yeah.
Yeah, and I think the New York Post even had it there on their front page.
All these people just boxed in.
They were outside, but they're all right next to each other partying in a swimming pool and drinking.
And I think that's what spawned this.
You think so too?
Well, what it sounds like to me is it could be Lake of the Ozarks version of cops, you know?
It does kind of sound like that.
Yeah, kind of because they're going to start filming July 4th.
Well, July 4th is the weekend.
Of course the cops are going to be busy.
Yeah, everybody's going to be an episode of cops.
They're going to get three seasons of material in that one night.
To be honest, I'm surprised we haven't made it on live TV yet.
Yeah.
Springfield's on there. Why not us?
Springfield is on there.
Springfield's a tough one.
Our bars get a lot crazier at Springfield bars.
Yeah, yeah.
Springfield, the problem is, is I believe it's meth.
Yeah.
They call it the 417, and that's about the area code.
The 417 meth, from what I understand, is the best meth you can get.
Have you heard of that? They call it the 417.
Not really. I don't mess with it.
Well, I know you don't, and I don't either.
I just happen to know this because...
Right, right, right. No, no, I have not heard that.
I have a couple of friends that are in law enforcement, and they're the ones that told me.
The 417 is like the most treasured meth you can get, and it's that 417 area code.
Springfield, that whole area.
Right, right.
Yeah. And that's one of their biggest issues, from what I understand, is meth abuse.
Well, all meth is abuse, so anyhow.
Exactly.
Yeah. So we'll see how that goes.
I mean, yeah, I don't know. I don't really care for that idea now, like I did at first.
Well, I don't know. It could be...
It kind of sounds like they're going to get the police officer.
Well, yeah, it would be cops, given the police officer's point of view.
I don't know. Maybe it would be cool then. I don't know. We'll see.
I'm going to reserve judgment until I watch it.
Personally, I think it will hurt the Lake area.
Me too. Me too.
And I live here.
I think that people will be afraid to come down there after they see all the shenanigans,
but these shenanigans happen everywhere.
Yeah, we don't go through anything any other place they go into.
Yeah, yeah. That's why I mentioned Springfield and the 417.
You know, every place, every... Yeah, so anyhow.
Is that it, Rob?
Yeah, that was it on that one.
Okay. Quick note.
Nick, you'll like my squeaky chair. Buy me one.
Huh?
A guy that emailed me.
Must be an email.
Yeah. You'll like my squeaky chair. PayPal and Venmo. Let me know.
John Karabi claims he recorded 80% of guitars on Motley Crue's Generation Swind.
Says the band was disappointed with Mick Mars's work. Did you see that one yet?
No, I did not, but Nick, stay on it.
I believe there's a lot of truth to this because, number one,
John Karabi's always been very honest from what I could tell, and he has nothing to gain or lose from this.
And also Mick did... Well, I'll just go into the article.
Having ghost musicians or guest players on studio recordings that were not properly credited
is nothing new within the realm of rock.
As such renowned artists as the Beach Boys, Rolling Stones, and Kiss
all have asked others outside their band to lend a hand.
But it's not common for a member who was just ousted from a band to be asked to return to the studio
and stand in for a permanent member.
During an interview with the Talk Louder podcast, singer John Karabi, who sang on Motley Crue's 1994 self-titled album,
revealed that he soon found himself in the aforementioned sticky situation.
After leaving the band, he was asked to help out for what would become Generation Swind,
the 1997 album that marked the return of Insnil.
Interesting enough, it wasn't vocals he was asked to lend a hand on, but rather guitar.
Discussing the matter, John recalled, this is transcribed by Ultimate Guitar,
and this is Ultimate Guitar Online magazine that I'm reading it from.
Even Mick Mars has said,
During the Generation Swind record was the most miserable, worst fucking time of my life,
and Nicky and Scott Humphrey literally got under Mick's skin mentally and made him feel like he wasn't a very good guitar player.
At that point, I had been told that Vince Neil was coming back, he added,
He wrote a bunch of those songs like the year prior, John Karabi did, he wrote a bunch of those songs prior.
Vince is coming back, but the management had asked me to help them finish the record.
I got a call pretty much daily at like 9.30 or 10 o'clock,
and it was Tommy, Nicky, and Scott all asked me to come into the studio early because they had Mick Mars in the studio the night before.
And they were disappointed because they couldn't get anything out of him.
So I said, yeah, I'll come in and play, but only if it's cool with Mick.
They said, yep, he is. We already talked with him. Okay, killer.
Karabi then dropped a bombshell about how much of the guitar on Generation Swine he actually provided.
When we look back, it's no wonder why Mick Mars' lack of contribution to the record has led to being so outspokenly against that record.
Mick Mars hates that record, Karabi added.
I went in and Mick will tell you this as well. Probably 80% of the guitars on Generation Swine is me playing.
So I know they weren't very happy with Mick during that Generation Swine.
I personally believe that.
It coincides with everything that not only Mick said, but Tommy or not Tommy, but John has said.
And I think that's probably true. So anyhow, Rob, any thoughts?
Honestly, yeah, I personally could see a change in that album.
Yeah.
And, you know, I could see where John Karabi's coming from. I really can.
Well, that album was almost as big of a disaster as the one that John Karabi was singing on.
It did nothing. But they blamed it on grunge at the time.
Okay, and look what they've done since.
Pretty much nothing.
Yeah.
Well, I'm kind of disappointed now because I thought Mick.
Oh, quit blaming it on John.
Yeah, it wasn't.
The originals broke up.
Hey, that 1994.
It went to hell. It went to hell.
That 1994 album with John Karabi is a fantastic album.
I thought it was too.
Yeah.
After that, it was nothing.
So whatever they did on that album, I wish they would do it again, but it's not going to happen because, I mean, now AI is doing their shit.
So, you know, they'll never go down as one of the greatest bands like Aerosmith or Guns N' Roses or anything like that, or even Bon Jovi.
And the reason is because they never could continue success. Guns N' Roses did, Aerosmith did, Judas Priest did, but they have a cap.
About 1994 is their cap.
And that's it. After that, they really came out with Dick and Squat.
So how can you be one of the best bands ever?
What? Now, 30 years ago?
Yes. Nothing. Flat nothing.
And I don't know who wrote the songs.
You know, they're credited to Nicky Sixx mainly.
But I mean, after hearing Vince McMorris' solo album, he had nothing on there that I could identify as Motley Crue.
So I don't think he had anything to do with the writing either.
And reading this, I don't think I especially don't think it now.
So I still go back to who wrote those original two albums, Too Fast for Love and Shout at the Devil.
They were masterpieces and they're nothing like what they did later.
You know, I mean, Girls, Girls, Girls.
Theater of Pain was completely different.
I liked it. Most people did not, except for Smokey in the Boys Room and the big ballad Home Sweet Home.
If it wasn't for the ballad Home Sweet Home, that would have flopped.
When that one came out, you and I were working together just as well.
Yeah, I mean, that was a big album.
And our soloist was Theater of Pain.
Yeah, but we liked all of the songs on there.
Most people just knew Home Sweet Home and maybe Smokey in the Boys Room because of the videos and all that.
We liked the B-sides.
Yeah. Yep.
So, I mean, really, I mean, I don't know.
It kind of appears to me, allegedly, that like someone else wrote this music, I'd like to know who did.
So anyhow, all right, Rob, we turn to you.
All right. Well, I'm going to go back to Abraham Lincoln's assassination.
Oh, very fascinating subject. Yes, it is.
Go ahead, Rob.
Especially what I have in mind.
Hi, Grandma Opal. Hi, Jimmy. Hi, Ricky.
Yes. Hi, Grandma Opal. Hi, Ricky.
And anybody else listening in Dodge City?
You get what I was going to do.
All of Dodge City, Kansas, we love you. Thanks for listening.
Anyhow, go ahead. I threw away that email.
I'm not now. All you guys, thank you.
That's it. Thank you, everybody.
Not just Dodge City. Yeah. All of you guys.
Thank you. Blanket. Thank you. Yes.
Insert. Insert city here. Thank you.
Go ahead.
Would you be interested in a list of what Abraham Lincoln had in his pockets when he got killed?
Yes, actually, I would.
I'm that kind of weird. I would love to know this.
Hey, you're correct me for different stories. Here we go.
When he was assassinated, Abraham Lincoln had a small pocket knife, two pairs of glasses, and a pocket watch bob in his pockets.
He was also carrying a leather wallet with a linen handkerchief with a Lincoln inscribed in red letters.
Remarkably, one of the pairs of spectacles showed evidence of a small repair done by the president himself.
Beyond the ordinary belongings, Lincoln possessed a collection of newspaper clippings containing accommodations about himself.
Perhaps the most intriguing item in his possession that night, however, was a five dollar Confederate bill that was found in his wallet.
He had Confederate money?
A five dollar Confederate bill was found in his wallet.
The president of enemy currency raises questions as to why the president would carry such an item.
While the exact answer is unknown, researchers at the Library of Congress propose a theory.
Clark Evans, the head of reference services in Rare Book and Special Collections Division, suggests we don't know the one with 100% certainty,
but just a few days earlier, Richmond had fallen.
Lincoln did actually travel Lincoln, and this was likely passed on to him as a souvenir.
Okay. Wow. Okay.
So that, that, well, not with 100% certainty, but, you know.
That would make sense.
Could have been. Could have been.
Yeah.
He was in days. He was there.
You know, after that battle, they won. Hey, here's some of their money. Hang on to that. You know.
Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. I could see that.
I could see it.
All right. What a good article. Thank you, Rob.
Let's go ahead and take our second break. Way late. And we're going to come back with more stuff.
I got a feeling it's going to be a late night, my friend.
I think so, too.
Yep. Me too.
Your mom is so ugly, her portraits hang themselves.
Bark, bark, bark, bark, bark, bark, bark.
I should have never taught that damn dog how to read.
Oh, Lord. That man just saw a puppy and how.
Hey there. Don't worry. I have a clown nose.
Oh, no. That drunk guy just hit my child.
It's OK. I have a clown nose.
Clown nose. Just put one on and you can do anything.
Want to run for office? Murder people in public?
Just grab a clown nose and bam, everyone laughs.
Clown noses are sold at gag stores online and pedophile conventions.
Grab one today and make magic happen.
Two douchebags and microphone in an effort to keep everything fresh.
We offer you first world problems.
That's a hell of a bridge construction.
Shit. I cannot believe I have to repair this bridge after 50 years.
Man, what am I going to do now?
I can't like get up 10 minutes earlier just to get to work.
This is complete bullshit. I'm going to write my congressman.
Two douchebags and a microphone. Because we all need dick jokes.
And now, deep thoughts with Mark.
Should I record frog sounds in the summer then play them when it's 0 degrees on my ring doorbell for the Amazon guy?
Yeah, that sounds like fun.
Something.
A little amped up we are.
Yeah, we should keep going but we don't want to disturb too many people.
Yeah, this is true. We are dialing it back just a tad but nothing crazy.
Maybe.
Yeah, maybe. We'll see. We'll see what happens. There we go. Thank you, Rob. Thanks.
We'll see what happens. We're going to try to.
McDonald's has decided to remove all its AI voice from drive-thru orders.
I agree.
Okay, there's one of my stories but let's see if you got everything I did.
Okay. Well, if you have something to add to it because sometimes these stories go to 10 different places or 20 or 30.
Okay.
The sum 2000 plus AI that greets you and takes your order.
The reason is that AI had too many mess ups and they went viral.
One mess up was when a person ordered a Mcdouble and fries allegedly and it added on 200 frozen Cokes.
I love that one.
Okay, yeah, my story does not give that.
Okay, you see what I mean? They're all different because I looked through three of them and this one had the most personality, this story.
And I mean, maybe they embellished, maybe they didn't. I don't know.
So anyhow, the person ended up filming it. Another AI goof.
It took a happy meal and made it into 10 cheeseburger pizzas.
McDonald's doesn't even sell pizza.
I love that.
I do too.
I love that.
There was another one. What?
I love that.
I do too.
Yeah, I do too.
They did serve McPizza for a while and it was only at one Kansas City location and it was the one off of Blue Parkway in Overland Park.
It was the McDonald KFC, the McTaco, the McTaco Hut or whatever with the McDonald's underneath it or whatever.
And they had it for a small amount of time and it was bad.
It wasn't bad.
The AI screwed up so regularly that they still had to have a person doing the order.
And the funniest one is AI told the customer in a drive-thru to hitchhike to an orchard.
Isn't that funny?
I used an AI before and found it doesn't understand a person well.
I had to repeat the order until a live person had to jump in.
Good riddance, I say.
And I mean every time the McDonald's that I go to every now and then on the way to work, if I want to get a coffee or something, I'll always start off with the AI.
Hi, may I help you?
Are you going to use an app today or not?
And I'm like, no.
And then you can tell your order at any time.
Okay.
And then I tell my order and then it repeats back something else or it just hems and haws.
And then finally a person comes in and goes, this McDonald's, may I take your order?
I'm like, why do you even have that person at the front?
You know, that AI person at the front.
Do it because we knew it wasn't going to work out from the start.
So anyhow, go ahead with your stuff.
No, no, no.
I have a story on that.
Mine went a little deeper.
It was more official.
No, go ahead.
It was just saying how some customers reported that McDonald's chat bots sometimes got even simple orders wrong.
But this is more how they teamed up with IBM, just started.
Okay, my order shut it down temporarily.
Okay.
Not so don't talk about yet.
It's probably coming back because honestly, I'm reading others.
I just read another story to where to pull a taco bell pizza.
They're all looking, though, looking at the.
Okay, then.
All right.
I did not.
My article was simply saying about what it done wrong and is going to take it away.
It sounds to me like you your stuff going into IBM and all that was taking that article a little bit further.
And maybe that's where this article was birthed from was that article.
You see what I mean?
Yeah.
Well, mine came off CBS News or take it for what it's worth.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
They could have been just sugarcoat.
Who knows?
Yeah.
So anyhow, personally, I see it becoming a thing in the future.
It probably will.
They'll go back and reinvent the wheel on it and then figure it out.
But I mean, as of right now, you're wasting the first two minutes you're sitting there in the drive through.
So, yeah, yeah.
Anyhow, Rob, we turn to you.
All right.
A country music singer has broken the record for largest crowd ever.
Kicking it in a U.S. concert.
I think I know who it is.
But go ahead.
I haven't read the article, but I bet you I know who it is in my head.
Go ahead.
I bet you do.
Country music legend George Strait.
Yep.
Bingo.
That's who I thought it was.
Go ahead.
Wait till you hear the amount in attendance.
Okay.
Has broken the record for the highest kicking crowd ever at a U.S. concert.
The billboard report straight through a record audience of 110,905 kick it buying fans to his concert Saturday at Kyle Field at Texas A&M in College State.
Wow.
Boy, that's a bigger than.
It is bigger than Garth Brooks.
Is that concert show on TV.
Okay.
The three or four concerts he had at the then Sprint Center and LT Mobile Center.
They were what 18,000 each.
So.
Three or four of them still does not even get close to 130,000.
So.
Yeah.
I was thinking about the ones he had on TV.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, evidently George Strait.
Yeah.
Has beat that by quite a bit.
I think.
Go ahead.
What now?
Okay.
Well, it goes on to say what's going on, everybody.
The 72 year old singer said.
We got some Aggies out there.
Oh, yeah.
Shame to say this, but this is my first time to ever be at Kyle Field.
Damn.
Just invite me back.
I'll come.
Cool.
George Strait is one of those artists that everybody can like.
Agreed.
Yes.
He's very likable on every level.
One last little thing.
Yeah.
According to Billboard, it broke the venues attendance record for a single event and crushed
the previous all time record for the largest crowd at a ticketed concert in the United
States.
The Grateful Dead briefly held the record with a hundred and seven thousand nineteen
fans at a 1977 concert at Raceway Park in New Jersey.
Half of the Grateful Dead is rolling over in their grave right now and the other half
is going, what did you say?
Wow.
Dude, that number is out of the world.
And he's so likable.
A lot of people.
He's likable musically.
He's likable as a person.
Yeah.
I mean, fantastic, man.
Go ahead.
I've seen him back in like, what was it, 1991.
I think it was probably 90 over at Bonner Springs at the Ample Theater.
Uh huh.
At the Ace in the Hole Tour.
Oh yeah, yeah.
Yep.
Yeah, I remember that.
How good was that?
I enjoyed it.
Good.
I enjoyed it.
I mean, that was one of those concerts.
Pretty much everybody was sitting in their chair, you know.
Yeah.
Just kick back.
I mean, that wasn't, that wasn't by any chance, you know.
To me, I call it toe tapping music.
You can't help but tap your toe.
You're like, man, that is good stuff.
You know.
Well, thank you, Rob.
Is that it or is there more?
Yeah, yeah.
I just, I've seen them numbers like, oh yeah, I gotta talk about that.
Hundred, hundred and ten thousand nine hundred and five people.
I'm glad you did.
That's a great story to report on.
Thank you, Rob.
I've always liked George Strait and I don't even like country music.
So, I've got, I've got a really interesting story that caught my eye here, Rob.
George Washington never did cut down the cherry tree, despite the famous story, to the contrary.
But he did pack away.
I've heard that.
I think we've all heard that, but this is going somewhere.
But he did pack away quite a few bottles of the fruit at his Mount Vernon home.
Does this a bottle of cherries and berries impossibly preserved in storage pits uncovered from the cellar of his mansion on the banks of the Potomac River?
They were discovered during an archeology, archeology, archeological dig.
I got it.
I've got to hurry up. I've got to get that damn cap in.
Okay.
Archaeological dig connected to a restoration project.
Jason Burroughs, Mount Vernon's principal archeologist said that discovery of so much perfectly preserved food from more than 250 years ago is essentially unprecedented.
So you could go there, open these up and eat them is what they're saying.
I wouldn't, but...
You've got to prove he cut them down.
No, no, no, no. No, it was in his cellar that he...
Yeah.
Finding what is essentially fresh fruit 250 years later is pretty spectacular, Burroughs said in an interview.
All the stars sort of had to align in the right manner for that to happen.
Whole pieces of fruit recognizable as cherries were found in some of the bottles.
Other bottles held what appeared to be gooseberries and currants.
The testing is underway to confirm that.
Mount Vernon is partnering with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which is conducting DNA testing on the fruit.
They're examining more than 50 cherry pits recovered from the bottles to see if any of them can be planted and grown.
So that's pretty cool.
Archaeological.
I have this damn flipper tooth in and it doesn't allow me to speak right sometimes.
Some certain words it gives me shit on.
So anyhow, go ahead.
Okay, I want to move into 10 movie icons who don't have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Okay.
You have to pay for that.
Interesting. I would take a lot of these woods.
Well, you have to pay for it, Rob.
Do you know that?
You have to pay for your star on the Walk of Fame.
Yeah, but all these people would have the money.
Well, I think it's the point of it from what I read.
But go ahead. I'm sorry.
Okay. Now, the first one I don't care about.
Oprah Winfrey.
Okay.
I mean, look, I'm not a real big fan of hers either.
But I mean, if you want to be honest, yeah, she deserves to be there.
Yeah, she's active in the industry from 1973 to present.
Yeah.
You know, she's been in films like The Color Purple.
You know, so yeah, I could see where she could deserve a little bit.
If any, she deserves it.
Her all her years of talk shows.
Everything she's been behind and done. Yes.
And it says here she's earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Yes.
So yeah, why not?
Archaeological.
Yeah.
Archaeological.
Yeah.
I took my flipper tooth out.
Go ahead.
Next. Next.
Don't worry.
I'm getting off Oprah Winfrey.
Sorry.
I'm just being a dick.
And this one.
This one kind of shocks me too.
Jim Carrey.
He deserves it for real.
I'm surprised he isn't on there.
1977 to present.
Jim Carrey's been behind such masterpieces.
I mean, I know he's weird now.
Kind of a questionable whatever, but he deserves it.
He's been in some of the best movies.
The Grinch, the Mask, Ace Ventura.
Yeah.
He's recently done Sonic the Hedgehog.
The Cable Guy I found really, really dark but great.
Dumb and Dumber.
Yeah, Dumb and Dumber.
Dumb and Dumber is one of those movies I can't start watching.
Because then I'll be there watching the whole thing even though I am.
You won't stop.
Yes. Yeah.
Brilliant comedy.
He deserves to be there.
Oh. Oh.
Carrey was inducted into Candace Walk of Fame in 2004.
Oh. Okay.
Didn't know that.
No, he just ain't been in Hollywood.
Okay.
Okay, next.
A bigger name.
Okay.
Al Pacino.
He's not on there.
That's surprising.
Al Pacino is not on the Walk of Fame.
Wow, he should be for real.
He has been but never picked a game and thus was never selected.
Wow. Okay.
Yeah, I mean, come on.
Yeah.
The Starface, The Godfather, yeah, we'll stop there.
Yeah, no, he deserves it.
Yeah. He definitely deserves it, my book.
Yeah, I would agree.
Okay, next. Emma Stone.
Okay.
Next.
To me, you got to be in her type of films, but she's been in a lot of, you know, she's been in 20 years.
She's been in a lot of movies. Yeah, why not?
Yeah.
Give her a vote.
Yeah.
What the hell of it?
Yeah, I think she deserves to be there, yes.
Yeah.
Next, Leonardo DiCaprio is not there.
Oh, without a doubt.
Yes, he should be.
Like I said, a lot of these are very big names.
Oh, shit, don't do that.
What happened?
No, it just backed up on me. I got to go back down to wireless.
Okay.
Judy Ginch, years active in the industry, 1957 to 2022.
I don't...
Ginch has a plethora of fantastic movies, including Shakespeare in Love and Casino Royale.
Okay.
I don't know who this woman is, but since, they said, 2022, I doubt she's retired.
She's probably passed.
Okay. I don't know.
I haven't been a huge fan of hers and don't really know that much about her, so I don't have...
Yeah, I'm looking at pictures of her and I...
Not anybody I think I know.
Okay. Well, I'm going to say on the surface, no, she probably doesn't deserve it.
Because everyone that deserves it, you know of, I think. That's my opinion.
Yeah, but from 1957 to 2022, somebody's going to know her.
Yeah, I guess so. Okay.
Yeah. Okay. Next. Oh, here we go.
Okay.
Clint Eastwood.
Oh, man. What an atrocity. He's not there already.
No. According to this, he is not.
Okay. All right. Wow. I find that hard to believe, but I can believe it.
Eastwood is missing from the Walk of Fame because he doesn't want to be on it.
Oh, okay.
He's been nominated multiple times.
Okay.
Okay, man.
All right, well, I mean, you know what? He didn't want a part of it, so okay. I respect that.
I don't know why he wouldn't.
I don't know. Maybe it's too Hollywood for him. He's never been really Hollywood.
Yeah, he's always been trying to stand offish.
Yeah, I just think that Hollywood just doesn't really suit him. You know, he's kind of an old fashioned guy from what I can tell.
Okay, next.
Julia Roberts.
She's made over 818 million.
Yeah, you know what? Yeah, yeah, you're right. Yep. Yeah, she does.
She's done a lot of different movies. Yeah, she's done a lot of good movies. She really has.
Really recognizable. Everybody knows her when you say her name. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I like her in terms of endearment, you know.
Yeah, yeah, she was really good in so many different things.
Yeah, and that was when she was first getting her start.
Yeah, it was.
Anyway.
Okay, next.
Denzel Washington.
Yeah, Denzel Washington should be in it. Yes.
Without a doubt.
I'm looking.
Are you in here?
I'm looking for the reason why.
In my damn phone call.
As popular as he was, you wouldn't think he'd be overlooked, but I don't know.
No, it's not giving a reason why.
Okay, well, whatever. He deserves to be in.
Washington was selected to receive the honor, but never set a date and missed his chance.
Okay, all right. Well, I guess he didn't.
Well, he nominated his ass again, so he can get on there.
I don't think he cares enough to. I mean, that's what it sounds like to me.
That could be.
Yeah, something like that, you would answer that, RSVP.
Yeah, yep.
And lastly.
Robert De Niro.
Okay.
Evidently got to be another one of those that just don't care.
I think there's a lot of people who don't really give a shit, and that's just the way it is.
You know.
Oh, yeah, it's not big a thing as it used to be.
Yeah, I mean, you can't go there and ask anybody really off the street.
Hey, name four people that are on the Hollywood Walkers, you know, Walk of Fame.
Right. They wouldn't know they just wouldn't know.
So, okay.
Well, just don't name any of these people and you might have a chance.
That's right.
All right. Well, we are well over our mark.
So do you want to go ahead and shut this thing down, put a bow on it and fucking put it out in the atmosphere?
Well, actually, I got to edit it first. All righty.
Yeah, we'll be back tomorrow night. So why not?
Yeah, hell yeah. All the bright eyed and bushy tailed. Right.
Okay. Anyhow, everybody have a good night.
Good night, assholes. Thanks for listening.
Good night, assholes.
Oh, no. Looks like the show's over, kids.
Mark has explosive diarrhea and can't afford a wireless mic.
Fear not, assholes. They'll be back invading your ear holes soon.
