1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
And now it's time for...

2
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
The Daily Deucebag Pledge.

3
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Here at Two Deucebags in a Microphone, we don't stand behind our journalistic integrity.

4
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Go ahead and assume we got the story wrong. At least we admit it.

5
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Not like all those other guys. We can and will lie if it makes the story better.

6
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,000
Two Deucebags and a Microphone.

7
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
We Talk.

8
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Is a...

9
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Two Deucebags and a Microphone. The only podcast with Gusto.

10
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:03,000
That's right, Gusto. Just like Schlitzbeer. Google it.

11
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Ho ho ho! This is Crotch the Old Saint Prick. I'm the guy that comes in after Christmas and douses all your dreams and hopes. Ho ho ho!

12
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Let's go to our mailbag and see what's next. Looks like it's little Jeff from Mason City, Iowa.

13
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:37,000
All I want is a saddle for my horse. Please and thank you.

14
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:44,000
Well, Little Jimmy, I don't have a saddle for you, but I have a poem.

15
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:53,000
Roses are red, violets are blue. I took your horse and had it made into glue. Ho ho ho!

16
00:02:53,000 --> 00:03:01,000
Our constant pursuit for a real knee-slapper. It's strange insults from an alien. Real hilarity.

17
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Me raccoons, constantly tear up your garbage outside. Just enough to where the city workers won't take it. That way you have to re-bag it every time just to get the city to take it.

18
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Two douchebags and a microphone. I'm Mark.

19
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,000
And I am Rob.

20
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:37,000
Alright, hang on. I forgot to put up my pop filter. This is because I love to pop my peas and it's not very appealing sometimes to a lot of people and I understand it.

21
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:51,000
So I was suggested by Davey when we were seeing the WASS concert. I was telling him about some of the issues I was having and he said get a pop filter because it's not on yet so you're going to hear me popping my peas.

22
00:03:51,000 --> 00:04:07,000
So anyhow, here is the magical solution to me popping my peas and that is pop filter. You'll hear it when you hear this broadcast.

23
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:21,000
I had my friend Mike send me an email and I got to see if I could harness the other emails because I'm having problems with it again.

24
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:31,000
There's a couple of interesting ones but I lost them but I remember this one because Mike sent it to me first and I remember it so well I can tell it without actually having to read it.

25
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:45,000
He was telling me a couple of things. Number one, Fuck Hammer, he reminded me of where I got that name from. One of the bands that I hated going around Kansas City at the time was named Trip Hammer.

26
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,000
I remember that name.

27
00:04:48,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Okay yeah, they were a big band around Kansas City and I couldn't stand them so I came up with Fuck Hammer instead of Trip Hammer and that's where I started making the flyers up with that ugly legs diamond band out the back of the hit parade.

28
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:21,000
The people in Westport, I mean the bar owners and shit were pissed. They wanted to know where all this stuff is coming from because people were pissing them. Hey, I thought Fuck Hammer was playing tonight. Who the hell is Fuck Hammer? The band that's out there on a flyer. Someone brought them one of you. Who the fuck did this? I don't know.

29
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:37,000
Yeah, I got the name from Trip Hammer. I couldn't stand them so I came up with Fuck Hammer. Then he reminded me of something else. We often talk about, we love the version of Motley Crue with John Karabi, right? You and I both do. And so does Topher. It's a good album.

30
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:51,000
I would have called it a different name besides Motley Crue but it was a fantastic album. I still listen to it and I love it. It's great. So anyhow, I went to that concert at Sandstone. Sandstone holds maybe what, 12,000? Something like that, would you say?

31
00:05:51,000 --> 00:06:15,000
About that, yeah. There's probably about 3,000 to 4,000 there at the most. So anyhow, out there, it was empty. It was a notoriously bad tour. No one was going to grunge with us big and no one really cared. The people that did like Motley Crue was pissed off because Vince left. All that stuff, right?

32
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:31,000
So it was a very transitional, weird period in their history. So I went to this concert because I wanted to see it. I liked John Karabi. I liked him in The Scream. I also knew of him from some other bands. I liked his voice. I was like, okay.

33
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:54,000
I liked the way him and Mick played together. I thought it was very unique. So I go to this concert and I'd say there's 3,000 there probably, not even 4,000. And this guy walks over and there's like five empty rows in the middle to the upper part because everybody ran down from the seats.

34
00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:06,000
And we're in the box seats in the middle there because my buddy Mike had box seats through a friend of his. So anyhow, I see this guy down there and everyone's having them sign their tour books and stuff.

35
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:28,000
So I walk down there and one of the friends is with Mike and he goes, hey man, he goes, that's John Karabi right there. I'm like, really? Okay. Type O negative opened up for Motley Crue, right? And anyhow, their guitarist, Kenny Hinkley, was the one sitting there.

36
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:42,000
And everybody thought it was John Karabi. We walk up and my friend goes, hey, that's John Karabi. And everyone believed it. Okay. And we didn't know any better. I walk up and when he starts writing his name down, I kind of got it. I was like, wait a minute.

37
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:57,000
That's not John Karabi. Looks a little bit like him, but that's not him. And everyone's like going up to him going, hey John, man, you got to get on stage here pretty soon. What are you doing out here? And he never said anything. He just went with it.

38
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:15,000
It was funny. It was actually Kenny Hickley, or Hickey, I think it's Hickey. Kenny Hickey of Type O negative, the guitarist. They just got done playing. And he went out there to watch the Motley Crue concert, right? With a crowd, because that's what kind of guy he is.

39
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:30,000
And Type O negative, I love them. They're a great band. And he was out there. And everyone around us thought it was John Karabi because people like my friend, the guy that was with Mike, I forgot the guy's name, I think it was like Bill or Bob or some shit like that.

40
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:39,000
And anyhow, him and I got to be friends through Mike that night. And he's one that goes, hey man, that's John Karabi. And then all the people around us said, oh yeah, John Karabi.

41
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:49,000
So they go up there and they get his autograph. I have him autographed my tour book. And I look down and it's a Motley tour book. And I look down and I'm like, it doesn't say John Karabi. And that is not John Karabi.

42
00:08:49,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Actually, it was Kenny Hickey of Type O negative, the guitarist. And he didn't say a word about not being John Karabi. He just signed his own name to the tour books and the tickets and left it alone. Wasn't that funny?

43
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:09,000
He didn't give a shit. Everyone loved him. But I bet the people didn't even notice.

44
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:21,000
Most of them did not. I mean, John Karabi had a little bit of a goatee or one of those, I forgot what they call them, where it's just the bottom. Maybe a Van Gogh or something like that.

45
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Anyhow, this guy didn't have one. I mean, to me that would have been the first one. Anyhow, maybe everybody thought he shaved it off for the show or something. I don't know.

46
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:52,000
But anyhow, he just went with it and he was pleasant and really nice. And he signed everybody's autograph. He signed his real name. And at least the people that were in line right there getting his autographs with me and Bob or Bill or whatever, thought it was John Karabi.

47
00:09:52,000 --> 00:10:00,000
Well, I didn't. But everyone else thought it was John Karabi. And they thought they got his signature.

48
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:11,000
I met you a lot when John Karabi came out to sing. And you look back there and that guy's still there like, who the fuck was that guy?

49
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:17,000
Because he stayed the whole concert. He sat there and he watched it and he was having a good time.

50
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Yeah, my friend Mike just reminded me of that. And I was just like, oh my God, that was a great one. I mean, that was like one of those ones where like, oh no, you're like sheep, man. I was just following everyone else saying, hey, that's John Karabi. And I'm like, I'm lit. You know, I had a few pops in me and this and that.

51
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:49,000
Yeah. Okay. Not once did I think he's going to go on stage in 10 minutes. That's not him. I just said, oh, okay, it's John Karabi. I better go get his autograph. I better go say hi. So anyhow. All right.

52
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,000
All right, Rob.

53
00:10:51,000 --> 00:11:01,000
Anyhow, that was my weird little story that someone reminded me of. And, and anyhow, you got something you want to get to here?

54
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Yeah. Actually, I'm going to stay on music. So this may be a weird douchebag. It might be douchebag slash music creeps. Who knows?

55
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:27,000
Well, that's kind of the way I envisioned it because we're not going to music creeps because Topher has his hands full for a few weeks and he's not going to be able to do it. So we could just kind of, you know, we could kind of do a little hybrid. So go ahead.

56
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:37,000
I got, I got one here. This is a list of country music stars that announced their farewell in 2024.

57
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,000
That sounds cool with me.

58
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:45,000
All right. First up, we have the Oak Ridge boys.

59
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Nice.

60
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:59,000
Well, their main reason is their singer, Joe Bonzel died in July at the age of 76. And they're all getting up there in age. Yeah.

61
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,000
Yeah, true.

62
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:06,000
Okay. Next was the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

63
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,000
Okay.

64
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,000
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

65
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:18,000
Fishing in the dark and they had a lot of hits over the years.

66
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Some of them even hit the pop charts.

67
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:30,000
Yeah, yeah, they had a long history of hits and a lot of them were on kind of pop-ish. They hit mainstream.

68
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:38,000
I mean, they're kind of pop-ish, but they hit the mainstream, the regular charts. Yeah.

69
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:44,000
And then at the age of 82, Mr. Lee Greenwood.

70
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,000
I agree with that.

71
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,000
Known for God Bless the USA.

72
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,000
He's awesome. He was awesome.

73
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:00,000
And after him, we have Alan Jackson.

74
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:06,000
Oh, yeah. Man, he, he's not thought of very much anymore. You're right.

75
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Yeah, he, he's 65 now, you know.

76
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,000
So he's been slowing down for quite a while.

77
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Well, yeah.

78
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:24,000
He says here he's currently booked for 10 dates running through May 17, 2025.

79
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,000
Wow.

80
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,000
Alan Jackson is still playing then. Okay, that's good.

81
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:37,000
And I know he's getting up there because, gosh, he's been, he was around during that Young Country deal in the 90s.

82
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,000
Remember? Yeah. Rocked up the grunge.

83
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,000
And then the glam went to country and they called it Young Country.

84
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:49,000
Matter of fact, Q104 changed to Young Country. Remember that? Right. Yeah.

85
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:55,000
They were like all the rage and he was a part of that, if I remember correctly.

86
00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Yeah, he was. And actually, the next one was from that era also. Okay.

87
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,000
John Michael Montgomery.

88
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Oh, wow. Yeah, yeah. He was a part of that. Okay.

89
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,000
Known for songs like Life's a Dance. Yeah.

90
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000
I Swear. Oh, yeah.

91
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,000
A lot of good hits by him.

92
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:25,000
This is interesting because I am not a huge country music fan. I like Bluegrass and Western.

93
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:29,000
But everyone you're naming, I know who you're talking about and I know a lot of their songs.

94
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:34,000
So this is pretty cool. I'm like able to keep up with you and know what you're talking about.

95
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:45,000
Yeah, yeah. Our next one, I know you know, a lot of people know this gentleman. Ray Stevens.

96
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:52,000
Oh, yeah. Of course. Of course. Yeah. He's a legend. Yeah. Awesome.

97
00:14:52,000 --> 00:15:00,000
Yep. He finally hung up his boots. And finally, we have Duck Stone.

98
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:07,000
He had a few hits back in the early 90s.

99
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,000
Okay, you got me on that one.

100
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:15,000
Yeah. He had a few hits back in the early 90s along with them too.

101
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,000
Okay. I love that list, Rob. Love it. Yeah.

102
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Oh, I have a retraction to make real quick. My neon fuck-off sign is not dead. It's alive and well.

103
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:35,000
It seems that the outlet that I had it plugged into was having some issues.

104
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:42,000
I took and I plugged it into another outlet and there she is, beautiful as hell. Fuck off.

105
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,000
So she is not a fallen soldier. She is actually doing very well.

106
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:51,000
And she's telling everyone to fuck off right now with her bright, pretty blue light.

107
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:56,000
Good deal. Good deal. That's good to hear, my friend.

108
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:07,000
Along with my new Duck Blind Studio sign. And if anybody wants to see it, I did post it on two douche bags and a microphone.

109
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:14,000
Facebook page. Facebook page. Yeah. Cool. Yeah. It's a nice looking sign and the Duck Blind Studio is in it.

110
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:18,000
And what? It's handmade.

111
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:26,000
Yeah, I could tell. It's beautiful. They did a good job on it. And this, like I said, I'm still customizing mine here.

112
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:36,000
The Talk is Cheap Studio. I'm doing, I think I told this on the last douche bags, but I'm getting old concert stub tickets and I'm printing them out.

113
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:42,000
I'm going to have a wall that's just nothing but old concert tickets plastered on there.

114
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:49,000
And I think it's going to be pretty cool and kind of fitting to what we do here. So.

115
00:16:49,000 --> 00:17:04,000
And also another cool thing is for my Flying V guitar, I finally broke down and I've got a wireless cord to where I can take the guitar and go anywhere in the house and play it.

116
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:22,000
And it will play through my amp. And so what it is is a transmitter that you hook to your guitar that you would normally put, you know, that you put the cord in and then where the cord would normally go into the amp, you're putting a receiver.

117
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:32,000
And so it's going to be pretty cool because it's going to make it easier to practice and do stuff like that because I'm kind of limited in my room with all the stuff that I have in here.

118
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:39,000
And so it's going to be pretty cool because I'll have the freedom to even sit on the couch in the living room and play if I want to, if I have the amp up enough.

119
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:48,000
So I'm going to be able to practice much better with this. And Topher's one that told me that, hey, you know, they're relatively cheap and you can get them, you know, Amazon or something like that.

120
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:55,000
So, hey, I got one coming, but it's going to take a couple of weeks because they are on backorder because probably Christmas.

121
00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:04,000
I bet a lot of people bought, you know, guitar players that for Christmas, I bet. So, okay, let's stay on the music theme for right now.

122
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:13,000
And then later on, I got like a nuclear fallout punk bunkers and they have new posh ones that I'll tell you about.

123
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:20,000
But yeah, that's fine. I got I got some more music stuff I could talk about, too. Okay. Let's keep the road.

124
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:30,000
All right. Well, we're all was fans here. You know, me and David went to the boss concert in Wichita and you know, Blackie Lawless, he told a very interesting story a couple of weeks ago.

125
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:39,000
This is right after I got back from the concert. I read it. I'm like, okay, because Blackie talking, you can tell he's pretty intelligent.

126
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:46,000
Okay. He's not like one of these guys are just like, yeah, we party and stuff like that. He's he's well thought of.

127
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:52,000
He's calculated. He used to be a major league pitcher for a while. I mean, he is very accomplished guy.

128
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:59,000
So Metal Edges Matt Wake recently spoke at linked with Wasp, May Man, Blackie, Blackie Lawless.

129
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:10,000
And during the course of the conversation, the front man went in deep about the surprise and origins of his band's legendary 1984 anthem.

130
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:17,000
I want to be somebody. He was asked by Wake about the origins of the song.

131
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Lawless replied it was from the Barney Miller TV show.

132
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:29,000
There was a character, Wrong Glass Played, the part of the Detective Harris, and it was from an episode.

133
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:35,000
Okay. Where where you forgot the guy's name, but he's writing books and stuff and trying to get big.

134
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:41,000
The character name, but they they weren't sure it was a chicken pox or smallpox.

135
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,000
So they had to be quarantined over the course of an evening.

136
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:48,000
And he's sleeping in the squad room on one of the cots.

137
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:53,000
And he's having this dream about wanting to be a famous author and having a big stock portfolio.

138
00:19:53,000 --> 00:20:00,000
And he's talking out loud in his sleep. And finally, at the end of the thing, he goes, God, I want to be somebody.

139
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:06,000
And the way he said it is pretty much the way I say it in the song, said Blackie.

140
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,000
It's really not that much different.

141
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:13,000
But when I heard it, I had already been working on music for what would be the song.

142
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,000
And when I heard that, it really struck me.

143
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,000
And I thought a lot of people have got to feel like that, like he did.

144
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,000
You know, he wants to be somebody connected with him.

145
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:28,000
Lawless continued. I've since heard it said in a number of different ways from different people,

146
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,000
but never quite like I heard him say it that night.

147
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,000
And it was an urgency in his voice and the way he said it.

148
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:40,000
So we just put a backseat behind, a backbeat behind it, not a backseat.

149
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:44,000
I mean, musically, I think we've done stuff that far surpasses it.

150
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:50,000
But it's not always just that. It's the sentiment in the song and the idea of the song.

151
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:58,000
Yeah, I know that he did all these other songs and concept albums and compositions and stuff.

152
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,000
But to me, still, that is the song that he did.

153
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,000
That is the best song that he's ever done, according to what I like.

154
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:15,000
Now, he would argue and go, you know, pride maybe something off the Crimson Idol, maybe something else later on.

155
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,000
You know, he's looking at it from a musician standpoint.

156
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,000
I'm looking at it from a fan standpoint.

157
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,000
And I say that song is the best one he ever did.

158
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,000
And he has a lot of other good songs.

159
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,000
But to me, that was like the apex of what he done.

160
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,000
What do you think, Rob?

161
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,000
I mean, I know there's Wild Child and a bunch of other ones.

162
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,000
But to me, I thought that that was the...

163
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,000
No, I totally agree.

164
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,000
Cool.

165
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,000
I want to be somebody.

166
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,000
When you were a young man like we were, it reached out and touched you.

167
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:50,000
It did.

168
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,000
Did you actually listen to it?

169
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,000
It did. I agree.

170
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,000
And it wasn't just the force behind the music.

171
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,000
It wasn't the catchy hook in the song.

172
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,000
It wasn't being an anthem with aggression.

173
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,000
It connected with you by saying, I want to be somebody, be somebody too.

174
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:12,000
And it's true because back then we all had aspirations of something that we ended up, you know,

175
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,000
nothing like we ended up doing in life.

176
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:19,000
We knew we were going to be better than Jess and Jim.

177
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,000
Yeah, but we didn't know how much better.

178
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,000
So we were aiming for the sky.

179
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,000
And well, you know, maybe I could have done it.

180
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,000
Maybe I couldn't have. Maybe you could have done it.

181
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,000
Maybe you couldn't have.

182
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:36,000
We don't know because I'm not unhappy with the way my life path took.

183
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,000
I mean, I'm comfortable and happy and doing well.

184
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:45,000
So I don't really have anything to complain about at all.

185
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,000
As a matter of fact, I have a lot to be thankful for.

186
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,000
But at the time, those lyrics meant something to us being young men

187
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:56,000
and trying to figure out our way in life and what we want to do.

188
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,000
You know, when life was much simpler, you know, when we were just like, you know,

189
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,000
looking for the next party, trying to find a chick to hook up with,

190
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:09,000
trying to get the right hairstyle, trying to get the right clothes.

191
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,000
And I saw Ozzy had a pair of red boots.

192
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,000
Need a pair of red boots? Why? Because Ozzy has them.

193
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,000
You know, it was a much simpler day.

194
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,000
And, you know, of course I outgrew that part of it.

195
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:28,000
But I never outgrew what I loved when I was a child or teenager.

196
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:33,000
My likes expanded, but the ones I used to like did not go away.

197
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:37,000
I know a lot of people, the stuff they used to like went away when they expanded their likes.

198
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,000
You know what I mean? They expand their universe by finding out new stuff.

199
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:47,000
You know, like I started getting into bluegrass and jazz and stuff like that.

200
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:53,000
A lot of people I know that did that kind of denied their past.

201
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:59,000
And you know what I mean? They're kind of like, yeah, I used to like that, but man, I kind of outgrew it.

202
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,000
I've never been like that. I've always been true to what I liked back then, and I still like it now.

203
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:10,000
I may not like some of it. Some of the real cheesy stuff, no, it just does not connect with me.

204
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:15,000
But most of it, like wasp and stuff like that, still connects with me.

205
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:22,000
So anyhow, shall we take our first break and then we're going to come right back with something you want to talk about? Sound good?

206
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Alright, sounds good to me.

207
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,000
That's what we'll do then.

208
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,000
And now, Deep Thoughts with Mark.

209
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:35,000
Should I throw away all my socks, then only buy 30 pair of one kind of sock?

210
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,000
Will they eventually not match up?

211
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,000
I may never know.

212
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Have you ever wondered where something came about?

213
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,000
Have you ever looked at something and said, hey, I wonder what the origin of that is?

214
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,000
Well, so have we.

215
00:24:55,000 --> 00:25:00,000
That's why we give you The Origin of...

216
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,000
The Origin of the Goatee.

217
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:11,000
The Goatee is a beard style that dates back to ancient Greece and Rome, and is named for its resemblance to a goat's beard.

218
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:18,000
The Goatee has been worn by many famous men throughout history, including Uncle Sam, Henry M. Hoyt, and Mr. Spock.

219
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:24,000
The gob ham was often depicted with a goatee, and in medieval and Roman times, it was often used as a symbol of a goat's beard.

220
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:28,000
And in medieval and Renaissance art, Satan was depicted with a goatee as well.

221
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:35,000
The goatee became popular again in the 1940s as a defining trait of the beatniks and jazz musicians.

222
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:41,000
It fell out of favor again in the 1960s, but became fashionable again in the 1990s and 2000s.

223
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:47,000
The term goatee originated in the late 20th century. It was originally called a goatee.

224
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,000
You watched the news. It was grim.

225
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:59,000
Is an apocalypse inevitable? We suggest you download all our podcasts beforehand and have multiple mobile chargers.

226
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:04,000
We have The Host Apocalypse.

227
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:13,000
Stuck up on pantyhose, the hose can be used to filter sediments out of water in any type of stew or soup that requires natural ingredients.

228
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:23,000
The material is also great to cover unprotected areas of skin. You can rub citronella or other compounds on the hose to detract insect bites.

229
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:33,000
It could also be used for a nice window net. The hose can be rolled together, and a form of durable, strong rope can be used out of this.

230
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:38,000
Two dish bags and microphone in an effort to keep everything fresh.

231
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:43,000
We offer you first world problems.

232
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:53,000
Damn it! I can't decide between nachos, chili, or wings for the game tonight.

233
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:58,000
This is bullshit. I should not have to make decisions like this.

234
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:09,000
Rob is in Camden, Missouri, about two and a half hours to the south of me.

235
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:14,000
This is Two Dish Bags and Microphone, like I said, and I am Mark.

236
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,000
And I am Rob.

237
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:21,000
Rob, you said you had something you wanted to talk about, so let's go to you.

238
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:35,000
Yeah, I do. Like before, well actually on the last Music Creeps, I had sent you in a list that you did not have time to get to.

239
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:45,000
Well actually it never came through. My email is screwed up again. Both of them. The one for douche bags and mine. I don't know what the fuck I'm doing, but anyhow.

240
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Go ahead, you have them now, so go ahead.

241
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Yeah, I've got that list right here.

242
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,000
That sounds good.

243
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:59,000
And I'm sorry Tulsa King, I tried to hold it to seven, I could not. It's ten.

244
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:13,000
And he had an email in there I never did get a chance to read, and I've got to figure out what's wrong with it. If not, Ronnie, send it back, Tulsa King, resend what you did if you can.

245
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,000
Anyhow, go ahead.

246
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Okay, this is my top list of concept albums.

247
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,000
Okay, cool.

248
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:31,000
Okay. Number ten, I have the Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails, 1994.

249
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:38,000
I guess that was a concept album. I mean, you know, he's talking about periods in his life that were horrible.

250
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Yeah.

251
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,000
I never really thought about like that before, but yeah, okay.

252
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:51,000
Yeah. Number nine, I have Quadrophenia by The Who, 1973.

253
00:28:51,000 --> 00:29:02,000
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, everyone's talking about Tommy and Quadrophenia was a hell of a concept album, I agree with you.

254
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,000
Anyhow, go ahead.

255
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:15,000
Yeah, it was. At number eight, I have The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, David Bowie, 1972.

256
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,000
Yeah, yeah, boy, that was a good one, wasn't it?

257
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,000
For the time it was, it was trippy.

258
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:37,000
Yeah, it's not usually his type of music is not my main thing, it never has been, but that album in particular was written so brilliantly and the lyrics and what he's talking about going to Ziggy Stardust and all that, you know.

259
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,000
Yeah.

260
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,000
Yeah, I agree.

261
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:49,000
Okay, at number seven, I have Zicke's A Brit by Jethro Tull, 1972.

262
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:54,000
That's one of the great albums that does not get enough credit, would you agree?

263
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,000
Yes, there was a lot of good music on that one.

264
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,000
Yeah, that's where they really came up with it.

265
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,000
Other than.

266
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,000
Oh, go ahead. Other than what?

267
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,000
Other than the title song, Zicke's A Brit.

268
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,000
Yeah, there was a lot of good music.

269
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:15,000
That is supposed to all be one song, actually, did you know that?

270
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,000
Yeah, yeah, I have heard that. I have heard that.

271
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:25,000
I did an article on it, but I mean, I know they have different titles in there, but they say it's all one song.

272
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,000
So, anyhow.

273
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:34,000
Well, yeah, I mean, I, until I heard that, I always thought it was a whole album, you know.

274
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,000
Well, it is a whole album.

275
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:44,000
And I mean, I guess I see where they're saying that, but here's one of the problems is when that album came out in 72,

276
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,000
there was nothing that played all the way through.

277
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,000
Yeah.

278
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:56,000
So how can, you know, it had to be split up and only when CDs came out,

279
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:02,000
could they, you know, because tapes, she had to turn over eight track cassette tapes.

280
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:09,000
You had to turn them over and go to side two. CDs never had a side two. They were all on one disc.

281
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:17,000
And until then, the two sides were separated. So the song was separated. I mean, anyhow.

282
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:24,000
I mean, they say it's one song, me, I don't know, you know, but go ahead.

283
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Number six, The Wall, Pink Floyd.

284
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:36,000
Yeah. That has so many different angles to it and so many different facets that they go down.

285
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:43,000
It's really hard to keep track of all the subtitles going in the main title. Is that a good way to say it?

286
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,000
Yeah, that's a very good way to say that. Yes.

287
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:52,000
Yeah. It is just segmented and all over scattered, but it goes one place.

288
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,000
Anyhow, pain, hurt, what have you.

289
00:31:55,000 --> 00:32:02,000
Yeah. Okay. Number five, Tommy, The Who.

290
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,000
Yeah.

291
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,000
1969.

292
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,000
That's a good one.

293
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Yeah. It's a classic.

294
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,000
Yeah, it is. They even did a movie.

295
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,000
Yeah, they did.

296
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:22,000
Now, the movie is, I will never get that ever. I watched it several times.

297
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,000
It was weird. Yeah, it was weird.

298
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:32,000
Yeah. I think the best part was Tina Turner shaking her ass. That was the best part of that whole movie.

299
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:36,000
That was nice. That was nice. The rest of it?

300
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,000
Yes, it was.

301
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Anyhow, go ahead.

302
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:46,000
Okay. Number four, Dark Side of the Moon, Pink Floyd.

303
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,000
73.

304
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:53,000
Yeah. A lot of great songs came off of that thing. My gosh.

305
00:32:53,000 --> 00:33:00,000
That's what David Gilmore was just writing, this incredible music.

306
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:11,000
Yep. Okay. Coming in, number three. Seventh Son of the Seventh Son, Iron Maiden.

307
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,000
Yeah.

308
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:13,000
88.

309
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:23,000
I mean, after Paul D'Aono left the band and sans the Blaise Bailey stuff in the middle when Bruce quit to go, you know, fly an airplane,

310
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:28,000
all the stuff they did with Bruce Dickinson had been concept albums. Every one of them.

311
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,000
Like Power Slave. They were all taken from A Point in Time.

312
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,000
Right.

313
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:38,000
And that's what they were all about, the whole album. So they were all concept albums.

314
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:47,000
The Seventh Son of the Seventh Son is really good because it touches on so many broad different aspects, from religion to love to everything.

315
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:51,000
I mean, it's good.

316
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:58,000
Okay. And my number two, and I'm sure Topher's going to appreciate this one.

317
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,000
Okay.

318
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,000
Welcome to my nightmare, Alice Cooper.

319
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:11,000
I would agree. But I would put another Alice Cooper one there instead. Do you want to know what it is?

320
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,000
What would it be?

321
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:17,000
From the Inside.

322
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,000
Okay.

323
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:24,000
That's a concept album, definitely. He came out of the loony bin. He came out of there.

324
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,000
Yes, he did. Okay.

325
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:35,000
For heavy drinking. Every song on that album is about someone that he met in the insane asylum, including his own issues.

326
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:39,000
Like How You Gonna See Me Now. We covered that not too long ago. You know, that's a song.

327
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,000
Yeah.

328
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:46,000
How's his wife going to see him not messed up? She's still going to love him.

329
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:52,000
After everything had happened, going to the loony bin, everything that he'd done. It's a very powerful ballad.

330
00:34:52,000 --> 00:35:00,000
But to me, I think that album is a better concept album than Welcome to My Nightmare. But Welcome to My Nightmare is great too.

331
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,000
Okay. I didn't even think about that.

332
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:10,000
He was established himself as a solo artist actually at that time anyhow.

333
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:20,000
So I think that's why he wanted to do an album like that. You know, to kind of go, okay, that old Alice Cooper stuff, you know, he owned the name.

334
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:28,000
He got the name and everything. That old band, I forgot what they called themselves, like the Alice Cooper Experience or something like that.

335
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:38,000
And he took the name Alice Cooper. And so when he did that, he tried to differentiate his himself from the other old band.

336
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:42,000
And he did it very well with that.

337
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:49,000
Okay. Well, you changed my mind. I'm going to agree with you. You're right. You're right.

338
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:56,000
That's okay. It's a very fun. It's a forgotten album. It is a forgotten album. People don't really remember it.

339
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,000
Yeah.

340
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:03,000
Yeah. Anyhow, nothing wrong with Welcome to My Nightmare. But okay, we're going to go ahead and insert from the inside.

341
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,000
Yeah.

342
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,000
All right. I'm good with that. I'm anxious to hear it.

343
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:14,000
Okay. My number one goes to Rush for 2112.

344
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:21,000
Very cool. I'm surprised that mine crime isn't on there.

345
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,000
I like 2112.

346
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,000
Oh, no, no, no. Not for number one.

347
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,000
Oh.

348
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:33,000
It wasn't on your list. I was kind of surprised by that. But you know what? It may not be everybody's cup of tea.

349
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:43,000
Cool. 2112 is awesome. 2112 is one of the best albums Rush ever done. Could be the best album they've ever done. It depends on your taste.

350
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:50,000
But yeah, the sound that they had, Geddy Lee with his vocals at that time. I get it.

351
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,000
Wow. Thank you, man. Very cool.

352
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,000
All right.

353
00:36:54,000 --> 00:37:11,000
I said something about nuclear fallout buttons, bunkers, not buttons, with posh amenities. We here at 2 Douchebag Central have informed you all of the old Minuteman nuclear underground launch pads.

354
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:25,000
We're a thing, right? Is all the rage? So, you know, they Airbnb them out and they're posh and they're beautiful and people go underground for a night in those old Minuteman silos. It's a great idea.

355
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:32,000
People have been buying them and refurbishing them. So now all the rage are nuclear fallout bunkers.

356
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:44,000
But not just a nuclear safe place, but a posh bunker with its own power source, assuming the nuclear blast doesn't destroy the advanced solar and wind power generators on the outside of it.

357
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:55,000
That's the only problem is that right there. If a blast is far enough away to where it doesn't interfere with that, in that fallout bunker, you're going to have power.

358
00:37:55,000 --> 00:38:06,000
Because they design systems, geothermal, wind and solar all put together to power this this thing, this nuclear fallout bunker.

359
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:19,000
So it is designed to have power and keep your way of living post nuclear. So a man in western Kansas who he doesn't wish to be identified has exactly this.

360
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:33,000
Okay, we'll call him SP. Okay, just so we can describe this well. SP is posh nuclear bunker has an elevator to his underground garage, whereas nuclear Holocaust car sits and waits completely.

361
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:47,000
Waits complete with a tank reserve next to the reserve petroleum tank. There is a tank of propane for heating and other uses, but it's not just one tank. There's several tanks.

362
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:56,000
So, okay, so all that. So you have an elevator, you have an underground garage that actually goes down the road a bit comes out the hatch.

363
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:07,000
I didn't describe it correctly and I apologize. I kind of skipped over that at first. So it's kind of almost like, you know, how the Batmobile comes out of the cave that nobody knows, right?

364
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:20,000
Well, this is like a spider hole. I saw the video and this is like a spider hole that this car comes out of. And I didn't get a really good look at the car but I think it might.

365
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:33,000
I don't think it might have. It's a gas operating car. I do know that because he has petroleum units. I thought he would have had an electric car, but maybe he does that too. But anyhow, now let's check on the living quarters.

366
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:48,000
Okay. The living room has a large brick fireplace. Actually, I think it might be. I think it was a BMW that he had. But anyhow, the living room has a large brick fireplace with a ventilation system.

367
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:59,000
A large 88 inch flat screen TV that's complete with a music surround sound system with at least a hundred thousand song playlist.

368
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:13,000
There it was. Echo in there. Yeah, that'd be awesome. You want to talk about surround sound. You can look this up. You can look up Posh Bunker Western Kansas and you can probably get this guy.

369
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:33,000
Alright. SP developed his own TV stations for his use. He has a comedy channel with hundreds of hours of comedy, a sitcom channel with hundreds of hours of sitcoms, and a movie channel with hundreds of hours of movies. These are his own TV stations that he designed that play in that bunker.

370
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:49,000
Next to the living room is a 10 table bar pub. He calls his pub the radioactive spot. This pub actually is equipped to serve drinks. He calls it radioactive spot. They glow. The drinks glow or look radioactive.

371
00:40:49,000 --> 00:41:07,000
He was serving these drinks that glow. That's kind of like the radioactive pub. He's in this bunker because of a nuclear holocaust. He has a sense of humor. I like this.

372
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:35,000
So anyhow, the kitchen, this is most modern kitchen available with a flat top grill. That's like a real grill, like one that you would find at a steakhouse or something like that. A flat top grill, a wok station, an iron skillet burner, and a six foot tall spice rack, and a built in monitor that gives recipes instructions while you're cooking.

373
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:46,000
Is that cool? Yeah, that is cool. Alright, how do I make chicken ala mer? Okay, let's put that in.

374
00:41:46,000 --> 00:42:06,000
So, you know, he puts in chicken ala mer and it gives him the recipe and he starts making it. Bedroom is large with a king size therapeutic bed with two massage chairs in the corner and mahogany wood dressers and a life size bronze statue of President Eisenhower who grew up not real far away.

375
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:26,000
Eisenhower actually is in his military uniform when he was a general and not the president. Finally, one needs an entertainment center which is located below the main corridor stairs and an elevator are equipped to get you there so it's right below the main corridors.

376
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:50,000
SP has his own five car bumper track, bumper car track. A batting cage with a baseball diamond to boot. And finally, one would need an arcade which has with Xbox's, Nintendo's, stand up tabletop arcade machines, foosball, pinball machines, tabletop hockey, everything.

377
00:42:50,000 --> 00:43:12,000
SP joked and said every tornado season he gets to try his bunker out and he lives in western Kansas. So there you go. Look it up if you have any other anything. I mean, I can't do it justice describing it.

378
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:26,000
It sounds like the only other thing it needs would be a bowling alley. It didn't say anything about bowling alley so maybe he's not a fan of bowling or I could have one for all I know. I just did not see that article.

379
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:44,000
Anyhow, wow. Yeah, that guy put a lot of thought into it. And the way the article, it was a long article and I had to narrow it all down so it was kind of choppy and I apologized because the place I was writing it out was very loud.

380
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:57,000
So anyhow, so I think that this guy doesn't plan on using it and he just goes there every now and then or he has his friends come down. It's kind of like a man cave really.

381
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:14,000
The guy made his fortune in aeronautics he said and that's where Kansas where a lot of aeronautics, you know, bowling and all that come from. So anyhow, he definitely has money to do this and it's really cool I think.

382
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:26,000
So, all right, should we take our second break and come back with something? Yeah, if you want to. Let's do it.

383
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:31,000
I think we found land. Oh my god, I think we're safe.

384
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:38,000
Oh no, it's the island of horrible jokes.

385
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:42,000
Elevator music is horrible.

386
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:51,000
On so many levels.

387
00:44:51,000 --> 00:45:07,000
Hi, all. This is Mark here. I'm usually the one telling you what to eat during an apocalypse.

388
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:11,000
Well, this time I decided to go the other way.

389
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:24,000
You ever considered just going to ground zero and saying fuck it. Do you really want to be the guy running around looking for radioactive deer, guessing whether water is not contaminated or not. No food, no shelter, no nothing.

390
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:31,000
Oh no, there's a strong argument that says you know what, let's just go to crown zero and see what's for us after.

391
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,000
Just a thought.

392
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:46,000
Harambe used to listen to our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheap Radio Shack Realistic Tape Recorder.

393
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:53,000
You might ask why Harambe never listens to our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheap Radio Shack Realistic Tape Recorder.

394
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,000
Well, it's because Harambe is dead.

395
00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:01,000
Senselessly murdered because some idiot did not watch her child properly while looking on her phone.

396
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:09,000
And sadly, Harambe does not listen to our original show, Two Dip Shits and the Cheap Radio Shack Realistic Tape Recorder or any other show anymore.

397
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,000
Sorry Harambe.

398
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:17,000
And that, the brand new feature, Strange Insults from an Alien.

399
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:24,000
May you always step in a wet spot after putting on fresh socks.

400
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:30,000
Your mama's so old, she walked out of the museum and the alarm went off.

401
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Hey there, fuckstick. You're just in time for brand new feature news nobody gives a shit about.

402
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:47,000
In Toledo, Mississippi, a structural steel company built a small bridge to go over a pothole that had been on the road for three years.

403
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:51,000
Next up, Things Overheard in Hell.

404
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:56,000
The 24-7 Jerry Lewis Telephone is coming right up.

405
00:46:56,000 --> 00:47:03,000
Tomorrow morning while grinding your coffee beans for your double mocha latte, remember to not get your genitals caught in a grinder.

406
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:07,000
It really hurts. Who can afford plastic surgery?

407
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,000
Stay safe everyone.

408
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:18,000
Our constant pursuit for a real knee slapper. It's Strange Insults from an Alien. Real hilarity.

409
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:26,000
May your five-year-old neighbor have all their violin lessons during all of your hangovers.

410
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:42,000
Two douchebags and micr... microphone. I can't talk tonight. Well you know what, I can't talk any night.

411
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,000
Let's start this over. Okay, let's act like I didn't say anything.

412
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:52,000
Two douchebags and microphone. The Center of the United States. Phenom. I'm Mark.

413
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,000
And I'm Rob.

414
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:59,000
Rob, be my guest.

415
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:03,000
Well, I actually learned something today.

416
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:09,000
And I thought it was a joke when I was scrolling through it. I read it.

417
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,000
Uh-huh.

418
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:22,000
The title says Biden signs bill officially anointing bald eagle as national bird of U.S.

419
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:26,000
I thought it was.

420
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:38,000
The bald eagle, a symbol of the power and strength of the United States for more than 240 years, earned an overdue honor on Tuesday.

421
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:44,000
It officially became the country's national bird.

422
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:58,000
President Joe Biden signed into law legislation sent to him by Congress that amends the United States code to correct what they had long gone unnoticed

423
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:07,000
and designate the bald eagle familiar to many because of its white head, yellow beak, brown body as a national bird.

424
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:19,000
The bald eagle has appeared on the great seal of the United States, which is used in official document at 1782 when the design was finalized.

425
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:35,000
The seal is made up of the eagle, olive branch, arrows, a flag-like shield, the motto E pluribus unum, and topless stars.

426
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:55,000
Congress that same year designated the bald eagle as national emblem, and the image appears in a host of places ranging from documents and the presidential flag to military insignia and U.S. currency.

427
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:56,000
Uh-huh.

428
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:06,000
But it had never been officially designated to be what many had just assumed it was, the national bird.

429
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:09,000
I learned something too, Rob. I thought it was the national bird.

430
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:10,000
Yeah.

431
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:15,000
Wow. That is not common knowledge.

432
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:21,000
No. I've always been told it was the national bird.

433
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,000
Me too. I mean, I'm pretty sure.

434
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:24,000
But it wasn't.

435
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:25,000
Pretty sure it was.

436
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,000
It was just the emblem.

437
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:31,000
Wow. I'm pretty sure school taught that, don't you think?

438
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,000
Pretty sure I found that out in school.

439
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,000
Yeah. Yeah, they did.

440
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,000
Wow.

441
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:42,000
Hey, Joe Biden did something good.

442
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,000
Who'd a thunk?

443
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:45,000
Yeah.

444
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,000
Wow. That's cool.

445
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:52,000
Well, I'm glad it's our national bird, even though I was thinking it was all these years anyhow.

446
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:55,000
So.

447
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:56,000
Well, yeah.

448
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,000
Now we know.

449
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:06,000
The May 10th solar storm exposed a critical vulnerability in this high-tech, highly precise system.

450
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:21,000
Geometric storms, also known as solar storms, are disturbances to the Earth's magnetic field caused by large expulsions of plasma and magnetic fields from the sun's atmosphere in the form of coronal mass ejections.

451
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,000
CMEs.

452
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:36,000
During a powerful solar storm like the one experienced in May 2024 Earth's ion sphere, the layer responsible for transmitting GPS signals and satellites to Earth becomes disrupted.

453
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:49,000
The layer becomes turbulent, distorting radio signals from GPS satellites, causing tractors and harvesters to lose their connections or worse, veer off course.

454
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:55,000
Our tractors acted like they were demon possessed, Ramstad recalls.

455
00:51:55,000 --> 00:52:03,000
All my cousins called me during the storm to say my auroras were driving them crazy while they were planning.

456
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:13,000
Tractors unable to maintain GPS locks lurched back and forth, forcing farmers to switch to manual controls or stop entirely.

457
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:22,000
And it wasn't an isolated event. Smaller solar storms in October classified as G3 and G4 events caused similar issues during the harvest season.

458
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:30,000
Ramstad experienced the effect of a strong solar storm again in October 6 when her tractor started acting up.

459
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:36,000
As a aura activity began, my GPS was off by close to a foot.

460
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:46,000
Twice while on auto steer, the tractor danced in a row off and to the left and to the right and then the defoliator was off a row.

461
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:53,000
So I had to loop around and start over. By nightfall, there was no control in the auto steer, Ramstad reported.

462
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:59,000
So Ramstad wasn't the only one to experience problems during the October solar storms.

463
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:06,000
This fall was my first time I got to see the aurora and they're talking about the northern lights when they're saying aurora.

464
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:13,000
And my hair was standing on end from the beauty. Indiana farmer Michael Spencer told SpaceWeather.com,

465
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:18,000
When the storms were strongest around October 7, my tractor's auto steer system would jump the line,

466
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:23,000
meaning the tractor would make a quick jolt to left or right and I would have to manually reset it.

467
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:31,000
Farmers can expect more frequent disruptions as solar activity continues, remain high during solar maximum,

468
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:36,000
a period of heightened activity during the sun's approximately 11 year solar cycle.

469
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:44,000
So you can see the northern lights a lot more coming up and you can see them all the way from Florida as far as they know and maybe even Mexico.

470
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:47,000
So Missouri is definitely in that belt.

471
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:57,000
While extreme G5 storms like the one in May 10, 2024 are rare, even modern G3 and G4 events can cause significant problems for farmers.

472
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:04,000
This means planted field work around solar activity and being prepared for unexpected delays.

473
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:14,000
Economic implications are serious. Delays in planting or harvesting can lead to lower yields while recalibrating or repairing GPS systems.

474
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:20,000
It adds financial strain during an already tight profit margin.

475
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:28,000
So I guess maybe you're in another city, right?

476
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:34,000
Okay. Yeah. And you have the place, the hotel in your GPS, right?

477
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:40,000
And all of a sudden it tells you to go in the left lane. Then it tells you to go in the right lane.

478
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:46,000
Then it tells you to back up. Do you see how that could really fuck things up on a freeway?

479
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:50,000
Yeah. Especially the ladder.

480
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:55,000
Yeah. Look, I mean, people reading GPS's don't drive worth a shit anyhow.

481
00:54:55,000 --> 00:55:03,000
You can tell. You know, whenever you see somebody weaving bad, it's a different type of weave when they're looking at their GPS because they keep pumping the brakes.

482
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:08,000
It's like, oh, no, no, no, it says 800 foot. Oh, no, no, no, no, it's still 200 foot. You're not there yet.

483
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:12,000
But what about this one? Oh, no, it says next left. So you're pumping the brakes.

484
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:21,000
I can tell that you could tell someone on their phone from a drunk driver because the phone, they slow down, they weave, then they speed up, they weave, and then they slow down.

485
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:24,000
And we, you know what I mean? There are certain patterns.

486
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:33,000
People reading the GPS are already horrible drivers. So anyhow, that might affect that for sure.

487
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:38,000
So Rob, go ahead.

488
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:44,000
Okay. Hey, did I tell you that they may have figured out who D.B. Cooper really is?

489
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,000
No, this will be interesting.

490
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,000
The famous skyjacker?

491
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,000
Yeah.

492
00:55:50,000 --> 00:56:04,000
The identity of the infamous skyjacker D.B. Cooper, who vanished after parachuting from a hijacked plane in 1971, may finally be revealed.

493
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:23,000
Siblings Shante and Richard McCoy III have discovered a parachute on their family property in North Carolina, which they believe was used by their father, Richard McCoy II, in the notorious skyjacking.

494
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:36,000
The siblings have long suspected their father, a convicted skyjacker, was D.B. Cooper due to the striking similarities between his crime and the unsolved case.

495
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,000
Okay.

496
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:50,000
Richard McCoy II was arrested five months after the Cooper incident for committing a similar skyjacking involving a parachute jump.

497
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:54,000
He later escaped from jail and was killed in a police shootout.

498
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:56,000
Oh, wow.

499
00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:05,000
Despite the parallels, the FBI initially dismissed McCoy as a suspect due to his age.

500
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:16,000
He was 27 at the time of this Cooper hijacking, while Cooper was described to be as being in his mid-40s.

501
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:17,000
Okay.

502
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:27,000
The siblings waited until their mother's death to stir their suspicions, as they believed she may have been complicit in the crimes.

503
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:38,000
They reached out to Dan Greider, a retired pilot and aviation expert, who has been documenting his research for D.B. Cooper on his YouTube channel.

504
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:49,000
If there was anybody on the planet that was qualified to step off the steps of that 727, it was Richard Floyd McCoy.

505
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:58,000
The discovery of the parachute has prompted the FBI to reopen the case, which was closed in 2016.

506
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:09,000
Greider revealed that the FBI is now attempting to match DNA samples and has requested to assume the body of Richard Floyd McCoy.

507
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:18,000
If the DNA matches, this could finally solve the only unsolved skyjacking in U.S. history.

508
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,000
Wow.

509
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:25,000
So we may finally find out who D.B. Cooper actually was.

510
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:30,000
And the parachute is in the FBI's hands.

511
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,000
And they got...

512
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:36,000
I've been actually kind of secretly following this.

513
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:37,000
Uh-huh.

514
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,000
I read about it when they first found it.

515
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:41,000
Okay.

516
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:48,000
But it had been handed over to the FBI, and the FBI was just sitting on it.

517
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:55,000
Well, now the FBI is stepping up, and they're running the tests and everything else.

518
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,000
Okay. They must be pretty convinced.

519
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:01,000
Okay. I've got a question. You mentioned they're going to exhume the body.

520
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,000
Is this for DNA evidence?

521
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:05,000
Yes.

522
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:11,000
Okay. Well, that's how they'll really get it. That's where they'll really get an affirmative right there.

523
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:14,000
Everything else could be viewed as circumstantial.

524
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:18,000
DNA will be solid, so they could definitely solve this thing.

525
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:19,000
Wow.

526
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:25,000
Well, also during the hijacking...

527
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,000
Uh-huh.

528
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:32,000
He let, I believe it's tie on the plane.

529
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:34,000
Oh, okay.

530
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:39,000
Yeah. There was a little more evidence than just this parachute.

531
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,000
Okay.

532
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:48,000
So they'll be able to match the DNA off the tie for the parachute.

533
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,000
Very cool, man. I mean, this is...

534
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:54,000
You know, a lot of people don't follow stuff like this, but you and I do, right?

535
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,000
This is significant.

536
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:56,000
Right.

537
00:59:56,000 --> 01:00:02,000
I mean, like you said, this has been going on forever about people not knowing who D.B. Cooper was.

538
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:08,000
So now you'll have an affirmative if it is. I think that's cooler than hell.

539
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:09,000
So thank you, Rob.

540
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,000
Yeah. And like I said, this is one I've been following.

541
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:17,000
And if I get any updates, I will let you know.

542
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,000
Awesome.

543
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,000
I got something here now.

544
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:26,000
You ever hear the term snowmanning?

545
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:27,000
No.

546
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:34,000
Okay. Well, snowmanning is real, and relationship experts say it's extremely unhealthy mentally,

547
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:39,000
if not physically, to practice this regularly.

548
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Snowmanning word was coined by eHarmony Dating Service.

549
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:52,000
This means when a woman actively searches for a partner during the holiday season so they won't be alone during the festive time of the year.

550
01:00:52,000 --> 01:01:00,000
The term is called snowmanning because as soon as the snowman melts, so does the feelings for the person.

551
01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:08,000
Relationship experts think this practice could lead to hurt feelings and even emotional distress and unrealistic views of couples.

552
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:13,000
Then even some cases, sexually transmitted infections.

553
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:19,000
They don't call it diseases anymore. They call it STDs. They call it STIs, infections.

554
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:26,000
There is also another slight variation of this behavior, and it's referred to as sledging.

555
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:32,000
This term means to drag someone through the snow on an alleged relationship and stop when the snow melts.

556
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:35,000
There is also the winter coating trend.

557
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:46,000
This is winter coating, like coating a paint trend in which people reach out to old flames in the winter, much like they would an old coat.

558
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:52,000
You know, I think we all used to call this an arrangement, and it was usually consensual,

559
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:56,000
and it really was an understanding between two parties involved.

560
01:01:56,000 --> 01:02:00,000
The last part of it, you know, the winter coating, right?

561
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:04,000
I don't fully remember situations like that.

562
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:16,000
Back in my single days, a woman I used to know would go, you know what, we don't have anything going on right now, so you know, we don't hate each other.

563
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:22,000
I don't know. I always thought that those things were kind of like an arrangement, but maybe not.

564
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:30,000
So anyhow, the winter coating part of it. The rest of it, the snowmaning and all that, I don't know.

565
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,000
Interesting, though.

566
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:38,000
So, do you want to go to the best guitar duos like we've been talking about?

567
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,000
Yeah, sounds good. I'm ready.

568
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:47,000
All right. Do you want to go fourth, or do you want me to go fourth first? Doesn't matter.

569
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,000
I'll go first. Don't bother me.

570
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:53,000
All right. Go ahead, Rob.

571
01:02:53,000 --> 01:03:00,000
Okay. My number seven. Alan Collins and Gary Rosenton of Leonard Skinner.

572
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,000
Leonard Skinner, yeah. Wow.

573
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:08,000
I should have had them on mine, and to be honest, I forgot all about them, and I don't know why.

574
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:12,000
I've always been a huge Skinner fan.

575
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:22,000
Those were the two song composition guys, if you will. So, yeah.

576
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:27,000
Okay. At number six, I have Don Felder and Joe Walsh of the Eagles.

577
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:34,000
Oh. You're going back a little ways on that one, and I agree with you.

578
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:38,000
Those were the Helva writing pair, wasn't it?

579
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,000
Yes, they were.

580
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:44,000
Wow. Cool.

581
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:49,000
And I'm staying back a ways on number five.

582
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:51,000
Okay.

583
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:54,000
Dwayne Allman and Dicky Betts of the Allman Brothers.

584
01:03:54,000 --> 01:04:00,000
Oh, Allman Brothers, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Did you hear about the Allman Brothers curse, by the way?

585
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:01,000
Yeah, I have.

586
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:08,000
Okay. We'll go into that next, not next, on this podcast, but in a podcast coming up, or maybe in the Music Creeps.

587
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:18,000
I read up on it, and there was some significant shit that went on. It's called the Allman Brothers curse. Anyhow, go ahead, Rob.

588
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:24,000
Okay. At number four, I have Ace Freelian, Paul Stanley of Kiss.

589
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:26,000
We doubled on that one.

590
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,000
I figured we would. I figured we would.

591
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:30,000
Yep.

592
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:32,000
We have always agreed on those two.

593
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:38,000
Their writing was magic. Simply put, it was magic, I'll tell you.

594
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:45,000
Those two went hand in hand, and it was so brilliant writing their riffs and songs. Anyhow.

595
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:51,000
Okay. At number three, Phil Collin and Steve Clark of Def Leppard.

596
01:04:51,000 --> 01:05:00,000
Yeah, and I'm glad you put in Steve Clark, and not Vivian Campbell or Pete Way, was it? Wasted Pete Way, I think, or something like that?

597
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,000
Something like that, yeah.

598
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:09,000
Phil Collin and Steve Clark were the meat and potatoes of that band, and they wrote the classic hits.

599
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,000
Yeah.

600
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:15,000
Excellent, yeah.

601
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:16,000
Go ahead.

602
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:21,000
Steve Clark was very underrated. Very underrated.

603
01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:27,000
Well, in one of the songs, he says, come on, Steve, do it.

604
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:28,000
Do it, yes, he does.

605
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:29,000
You know.

606
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:38,000
Yep. Yeah, Steve was a great songwriter. Sounded good. He never got the, while he was alive, he never got the kadoos for being such a good guitarist.

607
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:42,000
Actually, Phil Collin doesn't get a lot of it either. So, anyhow.

608
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:43,000
No, no.

609
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:44,000
Phil Collin did.

610
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:45,000
But look at all the hits they put out.

611
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:52,000
I've seen them on this thing called Generation X, and that's where five guitarists get together and tour, and they all do songs and stuff.

612
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:55,000
And that dude is a shredder, and I had no idea.

613
01:05:55,000 --> 01:06:00,000
Because there's no room for it on Def Leppard, you know, it's a hard driving band, like a Zeppelin-ish.

614
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:05,000
So there's no room for all this guitar stuff. He shreds. I could not believe it.

615
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:11,000
And then he has this band called Dixie Sutton.

616
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:21,000
Anyhow, it is a soul band, and the lead singer is a black woman that is just so good at singing. I mean, she sounds like an angel.

617
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:22,000
Oh, wow.

618
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:30,000
Yeah, look it up, and then listen to the music. It's incredible. It's called like the Dixie Sledge or the Dixie, something like that.

619
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:34,000
Anyhow, crazy good stuff, and completely different.

620
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:46,000
Towns, I see. Okay, my number two, Dave Murray and Adrian Smith of Iron Maiden.

621
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:48,000
We doubled on that one.

622
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:53,000
The way they were known to switch roles.

623
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:59,000
Yeah, yeah, and as a matter of fact, they used to do this in concert. People that were really into-

624
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:04,000
Yeah, to give each other a break, they would switch with them and leave.

625
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:11,000
Yeah, and they used to screw with people too, because the real Maiden fans like me and you knew who played what.

626
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:19,000
They would switch. And then you see Adrian Smith playing something that Murray was playing.

627
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:28,000
And then Murray playing, you know what I mean? Yeah, they were that good. They sounded just like the other one when they played it. It was great. So anyhow, go ahead.

628
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:36,000
Okay, and number one, I had to go Rudolph Schenker and Matthew Schubbs of Squirtmans.

629
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:40,000
Yeah, yep. I would agree.

630
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:43,000
Yep.

631
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:45,000
Awesome. Alright.

632
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:46,000
There you have it.

633
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:49,000
Sounds good to me. Alright.

634
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:57,000
Number seven. Now, hang with me here, because this is true, what I'm about to say.

635
01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:03,000
Richie Blackmore and John Lord. John Lord, I know, was a keyboardist.

636
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:04,000
Okay.

637
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:12,000
John Lord played the same things that Blackmore did. He was backing him up. He played his keyboard like a guitar.

638
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:22,000
They were a duo. And also, John Lord did solos like Richie Blackmore did during concerts.

639
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:23,000
To me, he was a guitarist.

640
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:24,000
Okay.

641
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:34,000
I mean, it's easy to see if you listen to any of the classic hits. It's Richie Blackmore and John Lord playing the same thing.

642
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:41,000
And then the bass is different. You know, Roger Glover is doing something different or whoever it was, Glenn Hughes or whoever.

643
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:52,000
So the bass was not backing the guitar. The bass was doing something else. The guitar and the organ were in concert together and then at certain times switching off.

644
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:58,000
So to me, John Lord was essentially a guitarist that played a keyboard.

645
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:02,000
So, number six.

646
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:03,000
I'll give you that one.

647
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:08,000
It's true. I mean, it's so true. Thank you. I appreciate that.

648
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:14,000
Alright, number six. Joe Perry and Brad Whitford. Aerosmith.

649
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:16,000
Okay.

650
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:28,000
They, listen to some of their stuff like Walking the Dog and stuff like that. I mean, gosh, they're just like so, I mean, they panned from each other, left to right, right to left, left to right, right to left.

651
01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:34,000
I mean, they were just like, they were funky. They were heavy. They had a really good groove.

652
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:41,000
To me, they were one of the perfect pair of guitarists, of guitarists together.

653
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:48,000
Number five, Dave Murray and Adrian Smith and we just went over every day and got Iron Maiden.

654
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:53,000
I mean, really, there's nothing more to add on that. I mean, they're just fantastic.

655
01:09:53,000 --> 01:10:00,000
Number four, Ace Freely and Paul Stanley, like you had. We doubled on them.

656
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,000
Same number even.

657
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:15,000
Yeah, yeah. Ace Freely and Paul Stanley were magic, like I said. I mean, they just, they wrote so well together. You know, I wish they'd do more music. That's never going to happen. So, anyhow.

658
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:19,000
Next, I have Slash and Izzy Stradlin.

659
01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:35,000
That Appetite for Destruction album is so classic. One album gave me the thought, and I'm certain on it, at least to me, that they are one of the best guitar duos ever.

660
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:39,000
The brilliance that they came up, do what?

661
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:46,000
I was just going to add that for me, we would have had to have like a top ten list.

662
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:54,000
Oh, I could have done that easily. But they were amazing. Amazing.

663
01:10:54,000 --> 01:11:03,000
Next one, and I'm surprised they weren't on your list, Angus and Malcolm Young.

664
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:21,000
Malcolm Young, he did that dirty rhythm, that nasty, nasty rhythm, while Angus had the liberty to do his magic. I mean, gosh. Angus Young is one of the guitarists, and Malcolm Young too, that will never get enough credit for what they did.

665
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:38,000
People did not view their songs as complicated or great or majestic or whatever, but their playing in that was perfect. Malcolm Young didn't overplay, and Angus didn't overplay. They played exactly what they needed to on it, and it was brilliant.

666
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:50,000
It was like someone came up to Angus and said, hey, you wrote the same album 17 times. He said, no, we didn't. We wrote it 18 times. Count again.

667
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:55,000
He didn't care. He was like, yeah, it's the same stuff. It works.

668
01:11:55,000 --> 01:12:02,000
And then finally, Lester Flat and Earl Scruggs.

669
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:07,000
Ah, I didn't go back far enough.

670
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:15,000
Yeah, you know what, that's okay. Not everybody, here's the deal. Not everyone will get that. You do because you're into that.

671
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:16,000
Yeah.

672
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:24,000
I do because I'm into that. Not everybody will get that, but I had to be true, and to me, they were the best duo ever.

673
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:25,000
Yeah.

674
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:36,000
Yeah, they're just incredible. So, all right. Let's see. You got something you want to go into, Rob?

675
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:38,000
Yeah, I got one I ran across.

676
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:42,000
All right, sounds good.

677
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:48,000
In a Reddit post, a customer who goes by the handle, and I'm just going to leave it as Anastasia.

678
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,000
Okay.

679
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:58,000
Shared their experience at a taco bueno branch where only one employee was there to attend the customers.

680
01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:00,000
Uh-huh.

681
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:13,000
On this particular day, this lone worker had to juggle taking orders over the counter, managing drive-through customers, preparing food, and handling all aspects of the operation.

682
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,000
Okay.

683
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:30,000
The situation escalated when it became clear the employee was scheduled to work from opening to closing a grueling 10-hour shift without support.

684
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:31,000
Damn.

685
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:52,000
The employee's frustration reached a breaking point when after serving the original poster who had intended to dine in, she reportedly said, I'm sorry, but I hope your order is to go after you. I'm leaving.

686
01:13:52,000 --> 01:14:08,000
Once the customer agreed to take his food to go, the employee fulfilled the order, turned off the restaurant lights, put up a closed sign in the drive-through window, and left the premises.

687
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:20,000
She didn't rock up and shared with the customer that she planned to celebrate her freedom by getting so drunk.

688
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:21,000
Can't blame her.

689
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:24,000
No. No, I know.

690
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:40,000
Her decision to walk out sparked a heated discussion in the Reddit comments with many users expressing empathy and sharing similar experiences of being left alone demands demanding workplaces.

691
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:54,000
The post became a springboard for broader conversations about workers' rights and conditions faced by employees in the fast food industry and beyond.

692
01:14:54,000 --> 01:15:02,000
The incident at Taco Bueno ignited widespread discourse about the state of working together.

693
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:12,000
Many Reddit users highlighted the systematic issues of understaffing, overworking, and underpaying employees.

694
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:26,000
One commenter observed, I heard others in line complaining about her taking too long, pointing to a lack of understanding and empathy from customers.

695
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,000
That sounds about right.

696
01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:29,000
Yeah.

697
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:31,000
There's got to be them assholes.

698
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,000
Yeah. Oh yeah.

699
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:37,000
Look around, dude. She's one person.

700
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:43,000
Yeah. Yep. Wow.

701
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:46,000
We've been that person before, haven't we?

702
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:47,000
Yes, we have.

703
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,000
Everyone else shows up and you're like, oh fuck.

704
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,000
Yeah.

705
01:15:52,000 --> 01:16:03,000
I have a list of sayings that people have no idea where they came from, but they're very unique sayings, but actually it's author unknown.

706
01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:05,000
They don't know who started it.

707
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:12,000
It's not a really long list, but it's good. It's a good list.

708
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:16,000
So the first one is titled Ignorance is Bliss.

709
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:29,000
And whoever said it said, I don't believe there's any problem in this country, no matter how tough it is that Americans, when they roll up their sleeves, they can't completely ignore.

710
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:32,000
I've heard that before.

711
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:33,000
Yeah.

712
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:36,000
It's true.

713
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:51,000
Another one that's anonymous, but I think is fantastic is when someone asks you a penny for your thoughts and you put in your two cents in, what happens to the other penny?

714
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:53,000
Huh?

715
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:54,000
Good question.

716
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:57,000
Yeah. Where is the other penny?

717
01:16:57,000 --> 01:16:58,000
Yeah.

718
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:02,000
Yeah. Someone took it. Probably the government.

719
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:05,000
Taxes. Yep.

720
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:16,000
This next one I love, and I've heard it several times, if a man smiles all the time, he's probably selling you something that doesn't work.

721
01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:18,000
I've heard that one.

722
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:19,000
True.

723
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:28,000
Next one. If no one knows when a person is going to die, how can we say they died prematurely?

724
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:29,000
Good point.

725
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:38,000
I love that one. Because you think about it, I guess so. No one knows your lifespan. Unless you kill yourself, then you know your lifespan.

726
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,000
But yeah. Wow.

727
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:41,000
Yeah.

728
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:50,000
Hard work is a misleading term. Fiscal effort and long hours do not constitute hard work. Hard work is when someone pays you to do something you'd rather not be doing.

729
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:55,000
Anytime you'd rather be doing something other than the thing you're doing, you're doing hard work.

730
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:57,000
That's right.

731
01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:02,000
I've never heard that one before, but that's right.

732
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:03,000
If you're doing something you don't like...

733
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:06,000
Now, I'm weird. I'm weird. I like hard work.

734
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:17,000
No, no, no. This is work you like to do, though. What he's saying is, or she, if you're doing something you don't like, that's hard work. And I agree with that.

735
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:18,000
Okay. Okay.

736
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:29,000
Yeah. I agree. I like to do hard work as long as it's what I like to do. But anything else, I agree. The hard work is because...

737
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:33,000
Yeah. Because what might be hard for me might not be hard for you type of thing.

738
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:40,000
Exactly. So anything that you don't like to do is hard work, and I agree.

739
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:50,000
Okay. If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done? Think about that.

740
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:59,000
If you tried to fail and succeed, which have you done? Because you're trying to fail, but you succeeded. Did you fail on failing?

741
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:04,000
Yeah. I have to say you succeeded.

742
01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:05,000
I'm going to say...

743
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:06,000
Feel good about yourself.

744
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:21,000
I'm going to say you failed. Here's why. You were trying to fail, but you succeeded. I think you failed. You were trying to fail, and you failed failing, and you succeeded.

745
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:23,000
Anyhow, it's a hell of an argument.

746
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:24,000
Yeah.

747
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:35,000
Yeah. So... Okay. And then this one's true, and I've heard this a lot. Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot? Anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

748
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:36,000
Yep.

749
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:37,000
Yeah.

750
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:43,000
This next one I love, and this is author I know definitely. I've never heard anyone take credit for this.

751
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:51,000
The Christians gave him Sunday. The Jews gave him Saturday, and the Muslims gave him Friday. God has a three-day weekend.

752
01:19:51,000 --> 01:20:00,000
That's pretty good. This next one I love, too. This is so good.

753
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:09,000
Isn't making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?

754
01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:10,000
Yeah.

755
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:15,000
Yep.

756
01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:30,000
Okay. And the next one is true. It's not my favorite one ever, but it's true. I am, as reportedly, the shortest sentence in the English language. Could it be that I do is the longest sentence?

757
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:34,000
Ooh.

758
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:36,000
I know I'm laughing, but...

759
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:39,000
Yeah.

760
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:42,000
Anyhow. Well, there you go. You can take it.

761
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:45,000
It's all the stereotypes.

762
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:56,000
Yeah. So anyhow, that's good. Okay. Here's all you have to know about men and women. Women are crazy. Men are stupid. The main reason women are crazy is that men are stupid.

763
01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:57,000
Yep.

764
01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:02,000
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. There you go. All right. That's all of them. I said there wasn't a whole lot, and that's it.

765
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:12,000
There's more of them, but quite frankly, I did not want to go over them because everyone hurt them so much. I don't think anyone really gives a shit at this point where they came from.

766
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:18,000
So anyhow, you got something, Rob?

767
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:20,000
Yeah.

768
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:24,000
Since we're coming up on the new year.

769
01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:25,000
Okay.

770
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:32,000
I figured I'd come up, I'd bring out some of Nostradamus' predictions for 2025.

771
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:36,000
Ooh. I like, I like, I like.

772
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:39,000
I knew you would.

773
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:54,000
Okay. Michael Day Nostradamus, who lived in 16th century France, was so well known for his predictions of the future that his name became synonymous with the idea of prophesying future events.

774
01:21:54,000 --> 01:22:07,000
Whether or not you happen to believe that any of his predictions have actually come to pass, there are still many who continue to heavily debate and scrutinize his writings to this day.

775
01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:08,000
Uh-huh.

776
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:15,000
So what, what did Nostradamus have in mind for the year 2025?

777
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:31,000
In the UK in particular, Gisear predicted that there would be a double dose of trouble in the form of some sort of war and rather surprisingly a return of the plague.

778
01:22:31,000 --> 01:23:00,000
The nose from the lands of Europe, see England set up her throne behind, he wrote, her flanks that will be cruel wars, the kingdom will be marked by wars so cruel, foes from within and without will arise, a great pestilence from the past returns, no enemy more deadly under the skies.

779
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:16,000
Elsewhere in the world he predicted that the great powers will clash and a disease in the imports of established Western countries and the emergence of new world powers.

780
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:29,000
On the plus side, he also predicted new breakthroughs in medical science, knowing there would be significant improvements in illness prevention and treatment.

781
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:30,000
Okay.

782
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:38,000
He also, he also suggested that a lengthy ongoing war would come to an end in 2025.

783
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:43,000
Could this be a sign that the war in Ukraine will stop?

784
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:46,000
Um, actually I do think it'll stop. I really do.

785
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:48,000
I think, I do too.

786
01:23:48,000 --> 01:24:03,000
Yeah. I think they just need a new negotiator and I'm not pro anything. I just think they need somebody with a little bit more ass bone than Joe Biden. And I'm not, and I'm not saying I'm conservative or liberal or nothing.

787
01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:11,000
I just think that Joe Biden did not have any guts to me.

788
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:13,000
Anyhow, go ahead.

789
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:34,000
Okay. Goes on to say through long war, all the army exhausted so that they do not find money for the soldiers. Instead of gold or silver, they will come to coin leather, Gaelic brass and the crescent sign of the moon, he wrote.

790
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:41,000
Some believe that Gaelic brass and crescent sign of the moon are references to France and Turkey.

791
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:44,000
Yeah.

792
01:24:44,000 --> 01:25:08,000
Beyond 2025, Nostradamus made reference to some sort of asteroid, asteroid strike. From the cosmos, a fireball will rise. A harbinger of fate, the world bleeds. Science and fate in a cosmic dance. The fate of the earth, a second chance, he wrote.

793
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:19,000
He also predicted floods and volcanic eruptions in Brazil, as well as floods elsewhere in the world, possibly due to rising sea levels.

794
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:22,000
Oh, that's interesting.

795
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:32,000
Because there is a lot of melting going on in the polar zones, and it will add to the depth of the rising ocean. Interesting.

796
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:35,000
Yes.

797
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:38,000
And that's all they had.

798
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:43,000
Okay. Now the New World Powers, I'm kind of interested in that one.

799
01:25:43,000 --> 01:26:01,000
Because the emergence of Bitcoin, suddenly you have another form of payment that could kind of take over, if you will, the systems that are going on now.

800
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:06,000
Could the new powers be something like Bitcoin?

801
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:07,000
It could be.

802
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:17,000
I mean, and there's a lot more to it, of course, but everything that he predicted there has some sort of substance behind it.

803
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:24,000
You know, the bird flu is going around and is transmitting into people now, right?

804
01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:25,000
Yeah.

805
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:31,000
And he was talking about a plague-like thing, right?

806
01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:35,000
It's very interesting. I mean, I hope he's wrong on most of this stuff.

807
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:46,000
But it's interesting because a lot of this stuff, I mean, if you had heard about this stuff 10 years ago, or 15 years ago, they'd go, oh, no, no, no, he's way off.

808
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:54,000
But everything that we've been through in the recent years and everything going on and everything that's happening kind of lends to,

809
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:58,000
I could see it happening. You agree?

810
01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:02,000
Yeah, I can. I really can.

811
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:06,000
Interesting stuff. Thank you, Rob. Wow.

812
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:14,000
Well, do you want to keep going or are you about done?

813
01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:21,000
Actually, that's about all I had tonight because I lost this one story. I don't know where it went.

814
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:25,000
Well, I got one here real quick and we can end on a little bit lighter note, OK?

815
01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:26,000
All right.

816
01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:39,000
OK. Every year they do a list, hotels, I think this might be Hilton or Radisson or something like that, top hotel chain, gives you a list of the top items that are left in a hotel room.

817
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:46,000
And every year it's a little bit different, which surprises me. It's not really all the time constant.

818
01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:55,000
So for twenty twenty four, the number one item left in actually I'll start from number fourteen.

819
01:27:55,000 --> 01:28:04,000
What the fourteen number fourteen the number one the number fourteen item left in hotel rooms are sunscreen.

820
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:09,000
No, no, no. Fourteen is false false teeth. I'm sorry.

821
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:19,000
Number thirteen is sunscreen. Number twelve is important documents.

822
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:25,000
Number eleven is credit cards. Number ten is books.

823
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:32,000
Number nine is swimwear. Number eight is glasses.

824
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:37,000
Number seven is favorite snacks. Number six is underwear.

825
01:28:37,000 --> 01:28:42,000
Number five is passports. And I've got a little story to that.

826
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:48,000
We were going to go with my cousins from Canada on a cruise, a Royal Caribbean at the time.

827
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:52,000
It was Oasis of the Seas is the largest cruise ship in existence.

828
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:58,000
It was it was immaculate and huge. So it was leaving out Fort Lauderdale, right?

829
01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:01,000
Well, this is about the time you start needing a passport to get on a boat.

830
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:08,000
And I'd forgotten the passport. So we're in line up there at KCI going through there.

831
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:12,000
And we're going through TSA and Val goes, did you bring the passports?

832
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:16,000
And I said, we don't need them, do we? I thought we do.

833
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:21,000
Is what she said. I call Royal Caribbean. They go, oh, yeah, yeah, you're going to need your passports for this one.

834
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:25,000
Like shit. So I'm like, you know what?

835
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:29,000
You go ahead and go, I'm going to leave. I'm going to go get our passports.

836
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:38,000
I'm going to catch another flight back, you know, just get a here's a hotel reservations, get a cab or an Uber and go straight there from the airport.

837
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:41,000
She goes, no, no, no, no. We're going to take this flight.

838
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:45,000
She said, I'm going to call my best friend, Cindy, which is Topher's wife.

839
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:51,000
I'm going to she has a key. She's going to go get the passports and overnight them to us.

840
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:54,000
Now, Val used to work for the post office, right?

841
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:58,000
And I heard horror stories about stuff not getting delivered. Right.

842
01:29:58,000 --> 01:30:03,000
So if if you overnight something and it doesn't hit you overnight, you know what happens?

843
01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:06,000
You just get your money back. That's it.

844
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:09,000
So Cindy went and got the passports. God bless her.

845
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:13,000
And she overnights them to us at the hotel we're staying in.

846
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:16,000
We're staying at this hotel called Ocean Sky.

847
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:19,000
So I'm sitting there, sitting there, sitting there.

848
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:22,000
And I called down to the post office and made one there. Right.

849
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:27,000
I'm like, hey, can you find something for me? And they're like, no, no, no. And don't come down here.

850
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:31,000
So the mail stopped at 12 o'clock.

851
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:34,000
They said the mail was always there by 12 o'clock.

852
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:40,000
So I'm sitting there out in front on the bench waiting for this postman to arrive,

853
01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:48,000
scared to death that I'm not going to make it with my relatives on this boat, lose all the money and not see my relatives and all this stuff. OK.

854
01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:53,000
So anyhow, right at about two till 12, here comes the mailman.

855
01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:58,000
And I run up there and he he also takes this big envelope because what's your name?

856
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:03,000
I go, Mark Wallace. OK, here you go.

857
01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:05,000
I'm like, oh, my God, it came through.

858
01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:14,000
But, man, I'll tell you what, that is scary because Val told me so many stories about nothing making it and people just putting mail here and there and just being nonchalant.

859
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:19,000
I thought that we were actually going to miss the cruise because I forgot the passports.

860
01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:25,000
So anyhow, number five is passports. Number four is meds.

861
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:30,000
Number three is toiletries. Number two is chargers and cords.

862
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:35,000
And number one is dirty laundry. So anyhow, there you go.

863
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:42,000
All right, Rob, do you think you want to add?

864
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:50,000
All I got for tonight, other than hi, Richie. Oh, thank you. Hi, Ricky.

865
01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:54,000
Thank you very much. My wife forgot Ricky and I apologize.

01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:59,000
Yeah, Ricky still gets a mention because he bothered to message us.

867
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:06,000
So, yes, anyhow, I let's see.

868
01:32:06,000 --> 01:32:08,000
There's some I was going to say, but you know what?

869
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:14,000
I forgot what it was. So anyhow, everybody, thank you for joining us.

870
01:32:14,000 --> 01:32:19,000
Good night, assholes. Good night, assholes.

871
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:22,000
Oh, no, looks like the show's over, kids.

872
01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:27,000
Mark has explosive diarrhea and can't afford a wireless mic.

873
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:39,000
Fear not, assholes. They'll be back invading your ear holes soon.
