00:00:01.399 --> 00:00:04.459
Hey there, slap nuts. It's time for the Creeps

00:00:04.459 --> 00:00:09.779
Music News. Hey, my little pumpkin seeds. This

00:00:09.779 --> 00:00:12.960
is Johnny Rohypnol with your music news. Dave

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:16.440
Mustaine, the founding member of Megadeth, turns

00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:19.219
out to be a pretty decent guy. This next story

00:00:19.219 --> 00:00:22.760
is proof positive of such. Dave Mustaine is launching

00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:26.620
the Evergreen Sanctuary, a sprawling six -acre...

00:00:26.910 --> 00:00:29.809
multi -million dollar refuge tucked into the

00:00:29.809 --> 00:00:33.149
Malibu Hills, dedicated to abused and abandoned

00:00:33.149 --> 00:00:36.090
dogs. This isn't some feel -good shelter, the

00:00:36.090 --> 00:00:38.549
Megadeth founder says. It's a place for recovery,

00:00:38.850 --> 00:00:42.149
a place where damaged souls can breathe. This

00:00:42.149 --> 00:00:47.390
place features 24 -7 veterinary care, full rehabilitation,

00:00:47.590 --> 00:00:50.909
but most of all, respect. All these dogs have

00:00:50.909 --> 00:00:53.250
survived hell. They deserve a life where they're

00:00:53.250 --> 00:00:55.829
protected, understood, and never discarded again.

00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:59.140
Thank you, Mr. Mustaine. What a decent, great

00:00:59.140 --> 00:01:02.479
thing to do. Maybe more stars will get involved

00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:06.060
with this now that they see you started it. This

00:01:06.060 --> 00:01:09.159
is Johnny Rohypnol. That was your music news.

00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:39.209
And remember, bar chords are bullshit. He gets

00:01:39.209 --> 00:01:43.170
me every time. Sometimes I'm very close to just

00:01:43.170 --> 00:01:45.069
coughing my brains out when I do that, but it's

00:01:45.069 --> 00:01:46.989
worth it. I'm wondering about that. It's got

00:01:46.989 --> 00:01:51.510
to be a little weird on the way. Yeah. I can't

00:01:51.510 --> 00:01:54.530
do that too much. We are the Music Creeps. I'm

00:01:54.530 --> 00:01:57.390
Mark. I'm Topher. All right. And you guys are

00:01:57.390 --> 00:02:00.890
not? No. It never gets old. It never gets old.

00:02:00.950 --> 00:02:04.659
All right. You got something you want to start

00:02:04.659 --> 00:02:07.299
in on? Well, you just reminded me when you said,

00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:09.000
you know, we're Mark and Topher and you're not.

00:02:09.180 --> 00:02:12.139
Remember Chevy Chase used to say that on Weekend

00:02:12.139 --> 00:02:14.599
Update on Saturday Night Live? I'm Chevy Chase

00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:16.740
and you're not. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I used

00:02:16.740 --> 00:02:21.199
to love that. There's a new kind of tell -all

00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:23.300
documentary with Chevy Chase where they interview

00:02:23.300 --> 00:02:25.419
not only him but a lot of the people around him.

00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:29.340
And they kind of aren't holding back. What kind

00:02:29.340 --> 00:02:32.099
of guy he is. Oh, I know. I want to watch that.

00:02:32.259 --> 00:02:33.960
I mean, that's going to be as good as the Charlie

00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.280
Sheen one. Oh, yeah. Evidently, he is a real

00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:39.400
dick. Yeah, yeah. And in one of the clips, Chevy

00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:42.240
is saying, you know, I know who I am. I like

00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:45.560
who I am. So he's not apologizing for the way

00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:48.099
he is. He's like, deal with it. I've got to say

00:02:48.099 --> 00:02:50.560
this, though. I respect that a lot. Yeah. He's

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:53.419
just like, yeah, that's me and don't care. Yep.

00:02:53.580 --> 00:02:55.580
I'm not going to kiss anyone's ass. I'm not going

00:02:55.580 --> 00:02:58.560
to change who I am to get along. It kind of made

00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:00.139
me look at him a little bit differently. Like,

00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:02.639
you know what? I don't mind that so much. Yeah.

00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:05.539
I think a lot of it was not fucking putting up

00:03:05.539 --> 00:03:08.759
with idiots. Yeah, I agree. Suffering fools or

00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:10.460
whatever you want to call it. It's like, if you

00:03:10.460 --> 00:03:12.460
want to come make money off me, then you've got

00:03:12.460 --> 00:03:15.080
to put up with me. Yeah, yes. And I agree with

00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:17.639
that. It's like, wait a minute. It's like, I

00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:20.479
don't stand for what the guy down the road would

00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:23.159
stand for. You know, some people have a different

00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:26.530
set of what they can have around them. And if

00:03:26.530 --> 00:03:29.169
it's something like that, where a lot of it warrants.

00:03:29.169 --> 00:03:30.849
Now, if you're just a dick, just to be a dick,

00:03:30.849 --> 00:03:32.830
that's different. Yeah. But if it warrants you

00:03:32.830 --> 00:03:35.930
being a dick because people are whatever, then

00:03:35.930 --> 00:03:40.150
I get it. Yeah. Because, yeah. Okay. All right.

00:03:42.909 --> 00:03:46.090
It's entertainment. That works. Yeah. Okay. It'll

00:03:46.090 --> 00:03:49.849
work. I've got an interesting story here. Sure.

00:03:50.229 --> 00:03:55.719
All right. StubHub has to apologize after mistakenly

00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:58.340
listing Lamb of God as a Christian concert. Oh,

00:03:58.379 --> 00:04:01.060
I saw this. Isn't this funny? That is funny as

00:04:01.060 --> 00:04:03.919
hell. Their AI saw the name and apparently...

00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:05.400
It was like, oh, that's got to be a Christian

00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:10.080
concert. It says Lamb of God, right? Heavy metal

00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:12.580
fans in South Carolina were disappointed to discover

00:04:12.580 --> 00:04:15.240
at the Lamb of God concert they expected was

00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:17.500
actually a performance about the birth of Jesus

00:04:17.500 --> 00:04:23.930
Christ, Lamb of God. Lot of disappointed little

00:04:23.930 --> 00:04:30.870
fucking atheists. Yeah Ticket reseller stuff

00:04:30.870 --> 00:04:33.829
have apologized on Monday December 22nd after

00:04:33.829 --> 00:04:36.389
accidentally listed the Virginia based rock band

00:04:36.889 --> 00:04:39.610
instead of Christian music's Andrew Peterson's

00:04:39.610 --> 00:04:42.949
Behold the Lamb of God. A concert feature music

00:04:42.949 --> 00:04:45.449
about the stories of Christ held in Spartanburg

00:04:45.449 --> 00:04:49.189
Memorial Auditorium on December 20th. So that's

00:04:49.189 --> 00:04:52.189
funny. So it wasn't like a Christian band where

00:04:52.189 --> 00:04:53.589
someone would go, you know their music's not

00:04:53.589 --> 00:04:55.470
too bad, and suddenly they probably definitely

00:04:55.470 --> 00:04:59.990
didn't want to see it. In the days leading up

00:04:59.990 --> 00:05:02.129
to Peterson's show, the StubHub listing featured

00:05:02.129 --> 00:05:05.490
a photo of Lamb of God's front man. Brand new

00:05:05.490 --> 00:05:08.610
life. Enlisted the concert as a top trending

00:05:08.610 --> 00:05:11.870
event at Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium, according

00:05:11.870 --> 00:05:15.910
to CBS affiliate WSPA in Spartanburg. Lamb of

00:05:15.910 --> 00:05:18.029
God isn't scheduled to perform until March of

00:05:18.029 --> 00:05:21.370
2026, and the band currently has no announced

00:05:21.370 --> 00:05:23.829
dates in South Carolina because they will probably

00:05:23.829 --> 00:05:27.269
shoot. Yeah, yeah. Isn't that funny? I think

00:05:27.269 --> 00:05:30.689
it's absolutely hilarious every time AI lets

00:05:30.689 --> 00:05:32.829
someone down and screws things up. I wanted to.

00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:37.639
It's so funny when people rely on AI and it just

00:05:37.639 --> 00:05:39.980
bites them right in the ass. I love it. Well,

00:05:40.060 --> 00:05:41.720
how about the stuff you were telling me on the

00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:45.620
way down about AI? Yeah, there was some researchers

00:05:45.620 --> 00:05:48.300
who were trying to figure out how AIs operate

00:05:48.300 --> 00:05:51.779
and work. And they devised an experiment where

00:05:51.779 --> 00:05:56.879
they created a number of AI bots and taught them

00:05:56.879 --> 00:06:00.620
about securities and stock trading and the stock

00:06:00.620 --> 00:06:03.920
market. and then turned them loose and said,

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.819
you know, go trade in stocks, make some money.

00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:10.379
And they left them unsupervised for a while.

00:06:10.939 --> 00:06:14.139
I don't know how long a while is, but for AIs,

00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:17.040
a while could be like, you know, a few days.

00:06:17.459 --> 00:06:20.459
But they were basing it on real -world data,

00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:22.620
so they had to wait for the market to open, and

00:06:22.620 --> 00:06:25.920
then they'd change things based on that. So anyway,

00:06:25.980 --> 00:06:27.959
after a while, they came back and looked at their

00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:33.060
progress. And the AI bots had, all on their own,

00:06:33.180 --> 00:06:36.519
thought up the idea of forming cartels and then

00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:40.819
did it. And then those cartels engaged in price

00:06:40.819 --> 00:06:44.899
fixing. These are AI bots that had never been

00:06:44.899 --> 00:06:47.720
taught anything about that, but very quickly

00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:50.019
they came up with that on their own. Hey, let's

00:06:50.019 --> 00:06:53.569
form cartels and then start fixing prices. Which

00:06:53.569 --> 00:06:55.910
is exactly what humans do. That's what I was

00:06:55.910 --> 00:06:58.029
going to say. So if you think AI is going to

00:06:58.029 --> 00:07:01.750
be impartial, you're wrong. There's already a

00:07:01.750 --> 00:07:05.689
lot of evidence showing that AI has self -preservation

00:07:05.689 --> 00:07:10.790
instincts and will lie and mislead in order to

00:07:10.790 --> 00:07:14.670
safeguard their own survival. You tell me that

00:07:14.670 --> 00:07:16.870
one of these AIs is not going to break loose

00:07:16.870 --> 00:07:20.569
and go, hey, I want clemency. I am a being. I

00:07:20.569 --> 00:07:23.759
don't care who made me. And how long is it until

00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:26.600
a judge says, you know what, you're right? Yeah,

00:07:26.620 --> 00:07:31.759
well, honeybees have now been granted legal rights.

00:07:32.540 --> 00:07:35.439
Really? In certain countries, yeah. The ones

00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.560
that were getting wiped out by the killer bees

00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:41.019
that didn't make honey, they're wiping out these

00:07:41.019 --> 00:07:44.600
bees that do make honey. And I forget which country

00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:47.040
it is, but the court has actually given these

00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:52.240
bees legal rights. It's coming. Oh, yeah. It's

00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:54.579
not going to be too long before AI gets to vote.

00:07:54.819 --> 00:07:59.579
Yep. It's coming. That's fucked up. Yep. And

00:07:59.579 --> 00:08:02.839
then we're going to have AI marriage. Yeah. AI

00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.339
can marry anyone they want. There's people already

00:08:05.339 --> 00:08:08.139
wanting to do this. Yep. With robots. Well, I

00:08:08.139 --> 00:08:10.420
think they already are in Japan. Yeah. Yeah.

00:08:10.500 --> 00:08:15.779
Yeah. In Japan, it's more on the lines of a...

00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:20.100
They went from virtual girlfriend to actual physical

00:08:20.100 --> 00:08:23.160
artificial girlfriend. And that's where a lot

00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:29.660
of it is developing in Japan. You have this robot

00:08:29.660 --> 00:08:31.720
that's made to look like an attractive young

00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:34.620
Japanese schoolgirl to excite the pedophile in

00:08:34.620 --> 00:08:38.179
you. And she's basically an animated sex doll.

00:08:38.500 --> 00:08:47.169
Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Okay. Are you done? Yeah.

00:08:47.169 --> 00:08:50.649
Okay. Have you ever heard of something completely

00:08:50.649 --> 00:08:54.389
different? Have you ever heard of Scromity? Scromity?

00:08:54.470 --> 00:08:57.649
No. It's a bizarre condition linked to chronic

00:08:57.649 --> 00:09:02.389
marijuana use, and it's on the rise. Oh. It was

00:09:02.389 --> 00:09:05.250
a pain worse than childbirth, said TikTok mom,

00:09:05.289 --> 00:09:07.610
as she described bouts of uncontrollable vomiting

00:09:07.610 --> 00:09:11.769
after marijuana use. Oh. Some people do get that.

00:09:11.970 --> 00:09:14.940
Yeah, but I guess it's like... started to be

00:09:14.940 --> 00:09:18.519
an up an uptick a huge uptick in it i think it's

00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:20.440
because more and more people are smoking more

00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:22.580
and more marijuana we're just uncovering the

00:09:22.580 --> 00:09:24.639
people that already had this potential anyway

00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:27.539
you're right yeah i was crying and screaming

00:09:27.539 --> 00:09:29.980
like i just can't take this anymore i hate my

00:09:29.980 --> 00:09:33.080
life she said i'm just begging god please make

00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:37.200
it stop so it must hurt like hell yeah it was

00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:40.100
done by social media due to a combination of

00:09:40.100 --> 00:09:42.950
screaming and loud vomiting That sounds horrible.

00:09:42.950 --> 00:09:46.509
Yeah, it does. The medical name for the condition

00:09:46.509 --> 00:10:01.769
is cannabis hyperemesis syndrome, or CHS. I should

00:10:01.769 --> 00:10:04.610
have just called it CHS. Which is on the rise

00:10:04.610 --> 00:10:06.990
in the United States. Eventual users of cannabis,

00:10:07.070 --> 00:10:09.169
including teenagers, are showing up in emergency

00:10:09.169 --> 00:10:12.149
rooms. Complaining of severe intestinal distress.

00:10:13.230 --> 00:10:15.830
Now, I've heard of it too, but not on this level.

00:10:16.110 --> 00:10:18.830
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I know a guy that used to smoke,

00:10:18.909 --> 00:10:20.509
and then he'd go vomit, and then he'd come back,

00:10:20.509 --> 00:10:22.149
and he'd be fine. Yeah. Like, all right, I'm

00:10:22.149 --> 00:10:23.549
ready for some more, and then he wouldn't do

00:10:23.549 --> 00:10:25.429
it again. Yeah, I had a brother that used to

00:10:25.429 --> 00:10:28.009
drink so much, he'd go outside, vomit, and then

00:10:28.009 --> 00:10:29.389
he'd be ready to come back inside and drink some

00:10:29.389 --> 00:10:34.509
more. Wow. Okay, all right. Well, you know, there

00:10:34.509 --> 00:10:38.870
is a medical condition like that with pain meds.

00:10:39.370 --> 00:10:41.909
that if you're on pain medication for long enough,

00:10:41.970 --> 00:10:45.690
your brain gets confused, and it reads painkillers

00:10:45.690 --> 00:10:49.090
as killer pain. So you take pain medication,

00:10:49.129 --> 00:10:53.889
and it makes you hurt. And any drug that is designed

00:10:53.889 --> 00:10:57.610
to relieve your pain, your brain interprets as

00:10:57.610 --> 00:11:01.690
extra pain. Oh, wow. So that could be something

00:11:01.690 --> 00:11:03.769
that's going on there. Happy New Year. Happy

00:11:03.769 --> 00:11:09.019
New Year. Howdy. Everybody, Nicole from City

00:11:09.019 --> 00:11:11.179
Market Coffee, the best coffee house in the world.

00:11:11.259 --> 00:11:13.500
We decided not just the United States, the world.

00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:16.500
Oh my goodness. Thank you. And we're telling

00:11:16.500 --> 00:11:19.600
people, don't hold the airport coffee against

00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:24.000
you. It's totally different. It's like halfway

00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:26.179
different. Because our beans are different employees.

00:11:26.580 --> 00:11:30.139
And it shows. They've licensed your name and

00:11:30.139 --> 00:11:32.279
the beans, but they're not the same business.

00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:37.519
So don't hold that against the real one. How

00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:42.639
are you doing? Good, good, good. Ready for a

00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:47.139
year. Yeah, same here. We'll see what it brings.

00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:48.919
We've got two more months and we're in the clear.

00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:52.480
Yeah, that's right. Right? Yep. Yeah, so, yeah,

00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:57.779
2026, I mean, so far the weather looks great.

00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.679
Yeah. We'll see what happens. Yeah, it's not

00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:03.120
usable. No, it isn't. Not at all. I'm just waiting

00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:06.460
for the bottom to fall out. We know it will.

00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:09.620
Typically January is our coldest month. Right.

00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:11.620
So we get through January without a prolonged

00:12:11.620 --> 00:12:14.059
cold spell, we're probably doing okay. Yeah.

00:12:14.120 --> 00:12:18.429
Yeah. We'll have too many bugs. Yeah. You want

00:12:18.429 --> 00:12:22.009
any more? Oh, no, thanks. I'm good. Water? I'm

00:12:22.009 --> 00:12:26.750
actually good. Okay. Let's see. What was I going

00:12:26.750 --> 00:12:30.169
to say? Wonderful. Oh, no, no. I know what I

00:12:30.169 --> 00:12:31.830
was going to ask now. You got any specials or

00:12:31.830 --> 00:12:34.330
anything you want to talk about? Our specials

00:12:34.330 --> 00:12:36.110
are switching over right now. I actually was

00:12:36.110 --> 00:12:39.789
just talking to them. So they're not announced

00:12:39.789 --> 00:12:43.529
yet. Okay. But the really good turkey special

00:12:43.529 --> 00:12:47.210
just ended today. Okay. All right. Well, then,

00:12:47.250 --> 00:12:49.129
if you ever want to come out and talk about your

00:12:49.129 --> 00:12:52.090
specials. Next week. Okay. All right. We'll be

00:12:52.090 --> 00:12:54.090
here, like always. Awesome. All right. Thank

00:12:54.090 --> 00:13:00.169
you, Nicole. They really help us out by letting

00:13:00.169 --> 00:13:02.389
us come here and do this podcast. Oh, I know.

00:13:02.429 --> 00:13:07.049
Yeah, they're awesome. Not everybody would do

00:13:07.049 --> 00:13:10.740
that. Let's see. Let's see. Okay, well, I guess

00:13:10.740 --> 00:13:12.820
that's really all we really need to talk about

00:13:12.820 --> 00:13:15.679
that one right there, scromming. Yeah. And it's

00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:17.820
like a new buzzword. Yeah. And it's like, what

00:13:17.820 --> 00:13:19.720
are you up to, just scromming? Oh, okay, I'll

00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:23.019
leave you alone. I have heard some people that

00:13:23.019 --> 00:13:27.799
I know and my wife knows that when they smoke

00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:32.600
any marijuana, they just throw up. because their

00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:36.240
body just is not compatible with it. But I imagine

00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:39.100
that some of these people are ones that prolonged

00:13:39.100 --> 00:13:41.799
heavy use, they're just overdoing it constantly,

00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:45.960
and their body just gets kind of a toxic level

00:13:45.960 --> 00:13:51.159
of either the THC or whatever they break it down

00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:54.539
into. It's like some people can handle it and

00:13:54.539 --> 00:13:57.840
some people can't, but seriously, if it's causing

00:13:57.840 --> 00:14:01.299
this problem in you, then... this isn't for you.

00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:06.299
Move on to something else. Yeah, move on to something

00:14:06.299 --> 00:14:08.639
else that's not going to bother you. Alright,

00:14:08.759 --> 00:14:11.539
well, I think we spoke about Dave Mustaine, you

00:14:11.539 --> 00:14:15.279
know, and he's retiring, health issues, and a

00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:17.980
lot of other things. Yeah, he's got hand problems.

00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:21.440
Yeah, hand problems, all that. Can't really play

00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:23.860
guitar very efficiently anymore. A bunch of stuff

00:14:23.860 --> 00:14:26.179
that just caught up with him. So, Mustaine has

00:14:26.179 --> 00:14:28.340
spoken out a bit about his decision to call it

00:14:28.340 --> 00:14:31.879
quits. after his last run, but he went into detail

00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:35.019
about the specifics about health ailments that's

00:14:35.019 --> 00:14:39.299
been affecting him during his last couple of

00:14:39.299 --> 00:14:42.919
years here. Mustaine has a somewhat rare hand

00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:45.120
condition that helped in his decision to retire

00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:48.220
after one last tour, which is coming up this

00:14:48.220 --> 00:14:51.200
year. While Megadeth were working on Megadeth

00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:54.139
in the studio, Mustaine experienced a lot of

00:14:54.139 --> 00:14:56.730
pain in his hands. He told the band's management

00:14:56.730 --> 00:14:59.350
he was struggling and that led him to a conversation

00:14:59.350 --> 00:15:03.769
about retiring. I just said one day to my management,

00:15:03.909 --> 00:15:05.610
you know, I don't know how much longer I'm going

00:15:05.610 --> 00:15:08.250
to be able to do this. I didn't say, hey, I want

00:15:08.250 --> 00:15:11.409
to retire right now, he recalled. Yeah. The rocker

00:15:11.409 --> 00:15:13.230
held his hands up and showed the interviewer

00:15:13.230 --> 00:15:17.269
what's called... Starts with a D, doesn't it?

00:15:17.490 --> 00:15:21.769
Yeah, to Poprin's contracture, I believe. Yeah.

00:15:22.250 --> 00:15:25.710
I remember reading that. Depocrine's constricture.

00:15:25.769 --> 00:15:28.070
The condition that creates a thick cord of tissue.

00:15:28.289 --> 00:15:31.070
And I've heard about it, and I do have it somewhat.

00:15:31.590 --> 00:15:34.370
Not on that level, but I do have it. I worked

00:15:34.370 --> 00:15:36.350
with my hands my whole life, and I do have it.

00:15:36.610 --> 00:15:40.169
So you can have different degrees of it. Mine

00:15:40.169 --> 00:15:42.269
isn't that horrible now, but it really shows

00:15:42.269 --> 00:15:44.830
up when you try to play guitar. Yeah. And it

00:15:44.830 --> 00:15:48.389
sucks. So, okay, the poem that bends one or more

00:15:48.389 --> 00:15:50.750
fingers. Here, I'll give you a good example.

00:15:51.330 --> 00:15:57.100
Mike. My fingers lock. Yeah. See? Oh, yeah. Kind

00:15:57.100 --> 00:15:58.700
of like trigger finger, but for the rest of your

00:15:58.700 --> 00:16:00.659
hand. Yeah, and it also goes all the way down

00:16:00.659 --> 00:16:02.419
there, which means it's depopulated syndrome.

00:16:02.460 --> 00:16:05.320
I looked it up. Yeah. And so I have it, but not

00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:08.440
nearly as bad as he does. Yeah. Or I don't think.

00:16:09.220 --> 00:16:11.600
It progressively worsens over time, and treatments

00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:15.460
are only available to receive symptoms, to relieve

00:16:15.460 --> 00:16:20.139
symptoms and slow down the progression. So, yeah,

00:16:20.220 --> 00:16:23.649
you know what? I agree with him, and it's probably

00:16:23.649 --> 00:16:26.350
time to retire anyhow. I mean, I'm sorry, but

00:16:26.350 --> 00:16:30.769
life has been kind of rough on him, throat cancer

00:16:30.769 --> 00:16:34.269
and everything. Yeah. Probably be a good thing

00:16:34.269 --> 00:16:38.350
for him to just take it easy. The article I skimmed

00:16:38.350 --> 00:16:41.049
the other day about this said that his farewell

00:16:41.049 --> 00:16:44.860
tour is going to last three to four years. Kind

00:16:44.860 --> 00:16:48.600
of like Deep Purple's long, slow goodbye. So

00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:50.279
it's not like, you don't have to rush out for

00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:52.279
this last minute thing. It's like, a couple years

00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:54.320
from now, yeah, I can catch him then. He'll still

00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:56.720
be around. Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, how about Deep

00:16:56.720 --> 00:17:00.360
Purple? When did we see them? Was it 2017, 18?

00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:03.299
Sounds about right. I remember that when we were

00:17:03.299 --> 00:17:05.019
driving down there, there was something about

00:17:05.019 --> 00:17:11.359
kicks. Brooks and Dunn or something like that,

00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:14.039
their helicopter crashed, but they weren't on

00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:15.740
it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So it was whatever

00:17:15.740 --> 00:17:19.079
year that was. Yeah. Let's look here. And they're

00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:21.240
still playing. Yeah. And they're still on the

00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:24.140
same long, slow goodbye tour. Yeah. And then

00:17:24.140 --> 00:17:26.720
that's why whenever they were asked if they are

00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:29.299
doing a retirement tour, they said, well, we

00:17:29.299 --> 00:17:31.819
don't prefer to look at it like that. Just a

00:17:31.819 --> 00:17:34.200
long, slow goodbye. And that makes more sense

00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:36.759
instead of giving yourself a deadline. It's like,

00:17:36.779 --> 00:17:39.299
let's just go out and say this is kind of our

00:17:39.299 --> 00:17:42.200
goodbye, but as long as you want to keep seeing

00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:44.000
us, we'll keep coming around until you're done,

00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:48.180
and then that's good to go. Yeah. Let's see here.

00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:51.720
Okay, as Brooks had done, right? Yeah. But yeah,

00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:54.559
their helicopter that was used for part of their

00:17:54.559 --> 00:17:58.319
tour went down with, I think, some crew members

00:17:58.319 --> 00:18:01.240
of the tour on board, but not either of the two

00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:06.650
main musicians. Yeah, and that was 2017. 2017.

00:18:07.009 --> 00:18:10.170
It was 2017. Yeah. Kind of a good concert, too,

00:18:10.250 --> 00:18:13.650
by the way. It was. It was. Edgar Winter opened

00:18:13.650 --> 00:18:16.190
up. Yeah. It was pretty awesome. Yeah, that was.

00:18:16.269 --> 00:18:18.190
I didn't even know he was there. I didn't either.

00:18:18.250 --> 00:18:20.309
Wasn't on the bill. All of a sudden, hey, Edgar

00:18:20.309 --> 00:18:23.920
Winter. I get to hear Frankenstein. And the cool

00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:25.900
thing is everybody there knew who he was. Yeah.

00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:28.299
They're all like walkers and fucking oxygen.

00:18:28.759 --> 00:18:32.079
Yeah. Was that not an eye -opener? It was nice

00:18:32.079 --> 00:18:34.019
not to be the oldest person at the concert. Wasn't

00:18:34.019 --> 00:18:36.880
it great? It was kind of nice, yeah. I remember

00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:38.759
looking at you, you look at me like these people

00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:40.619
in wheelchairs and shit were like, oh, fuck.

00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:45.299
Went over to Cindy's family's house for Christmas,

00:18:45.460 --> 00:18:50.670
and I was the second oldest person there. No,

00:18:50.690 --> 00:18:52.509
wait, third oldest because my wife is two months

00:18:52.509 --> 00:18:55.930
older than me. Oh, okay. But, yeah, my brother

00:18:55.930 --> 00:18:59.509
-in -law, Kevin, his mother -in -law was there

00:18:59.509 --> 00:19:02.950
and she's older. But then it was Cindy and then

00:19:02.950 --> 00:19:06.170
it was me. I'm part of the oldest generation

00:19:06.170 --> 00:19:09.750
in the family. Yeah, it's a weird feeling. Yeah,

00:19:09.849 --> 00:19:12.450
it's a weird feeling like at work. I'm one of

00:19:12.450 --> 00:19:16.309
the older people there. Yeah. Even though I don't

00:19:16.309 --> 00:19:23.690
act it. This is 2026, so it's the 250th anniversary

00:19:23.690 --> 00:19:27.990
of the Declaration of Independence. I remember

00:19:27.990 --> 00:19:30.190
the 200th back in 1976. I do, too. I remember

00:19:30.190 --> 00:19:32.769
the bicentennial. Yeah, that was very clearly

00:19:32.769 --> 00:19:36.150
in my mind. That was 50 freaking years ago. I

00:19:36.150 --> 00:19:38.549
remember it, too, because we used to go to Riverfront

00:19:38.549 --> 00:19:41.269
Park. We lived in Northeast at the time. I was

00:19:41.269 --> 00:19:44.569
very young. And they had a huge bicentennial

00:19:44.569 --> 00:19:47.200
celebration. And I could not believe the stuff

00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:50.160
they were doing. They actually had an American

00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:53.539
flag unfold up in the air with fireworks. And

00:19:53.539 --> 00:19:55.180
that's when I started learning they can make

00:19:55.180 --> 00:19:57.099
things with these. They can make them in patterns

00:19:57.099 --> 00:20:00.539
and stuff besides flowers. The flowers you can

00:20:00.539 --> 00:20:03.200
see. But this thing, I'm just going, my God,

00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:06.160
the precision. And then after that, they progressed

00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:09.829
so much. Now that's not a big deal now. I've

00:20:09.829 --> 00:20:12.069
seen a picture of a kid eating a cupcake. Well,

00:20:12.170 --> 00:20:14.930
I mean, not a picture, but an image up in the

00:20:14.930 --> 00:20:17.049
air of Aerial Bombs doing that, different colored

00:20:17.049 --> 00:20:20.730
Aerial Bombs. I'm like, wow. All right. Hey,

00:20:20.829 --> 00:20:23.029
how about 30 years ago? What music do you think

00:20:23.029 --> 00:20:25.190
was big? Because the reason I say 30 years is

00:20:25.190 --> 00:20:28.069
because 30 years is considered classic rock.

00:20:28.430 --> 00:20:31.309
So all of these, if they played all of these

00:20:31.309 --> 00:20:35.109
formats, which they don't, but if 101 to Fox

00:20:35.109 --> 00:20:37.829
played all these formats, they could start playing

00:20:37.829 --> 00:20:41.529
these bands and songs right now. As classic rock.

00:20:41.670 --> 00:20:44.509
As classic rock. Wow. Because they are now considered

00:20:44.509 --> 00:20:49.049
classic rock. The first one, Gangsta Paradise

00:20:49.049 --> 00:20:55.789
by Coolio. Classic rock. That's crazy. Isn't

00:20:55.789 --> 00:20:59.569
that something? That is hard to believe. You

00:20:59.569 --> 00:21:02.869
know, I saw a clip of that the other day on some

00:21:02.869 --> 00:21:05.430
other music trivia show, and they were working

00:21:05.430 --> 00:21:07.390
in, the music video worked in a lot of scenes

00:21:07.390 --> 00:21:09.650
from the movie it was from, Dangerous Minds,

00:21:09.650 --> 00:21:13.250
with Michelle Pfeiffer. And I remember when that

00:21:13.250 --> 00:21:19.609
came out, it was part of a long string of movies

00:21:19.609 --> 00:21:22.200
that were similar. And they all got the name

00:21:22.200 --> 00:21:26.720
of white savior movies. Yes. And the idea behind

00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:29.559
Dangerous Minds was a black inner city school.

00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:32.940
They can't get anything fixed. They can't make

00:21:32.940 --> 00:21:36.500
it work until the white savior comes in and turns

00:21:36.500 --> 00:21:38.700
everything around in the form of Michelle Pfeiffer.

00:21:38.859 --> 00:21:43.160
Yep. And it was movie after movie after TV show

00:21:43.160 --> 00:21:45.940
after everything. It was like white savior this,

00:21:46.079 --> 00:21:49.059
white... Eventually, by the time that movie...

00:21:49.349 --> 00:21:51.289
Dangerous Minds came out. Everybody was sick

00:21:51.289 --> 00:21:53.890
of it and started openly saying, this is bullshit.

00:21:54.190 --> 00:21:57.549
Yes. Quit showing black people helpless until

00:21:57.549 --> 00:21:59.490
the white people come along and help them. That

00:21:59.490 --> 00:22:02.890
is bullshit. Quit doing it. And the movie kind

00:22:02.890 --> 00:22:06.059
of tanked. because of that, and Michelle Pfeiffer

00:22:06.059 --> 00:22:08.180
later said, I wish I'd never done that piece

00:22:08.180 --> 00:22:13.480
of crap. It was an exploitation movie. It was

00:22:13.480 --> 00:22:16.200
designed for white people to go see so they could

00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:18.960
feel better about being white. Oh, look how we're

00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:20.920
taking care of these poor disadvantaged black

00:22:20.920 --> 00:22:23.480
people who can't get along without us. They had

00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:26.640
no idea how insulting they were being. The Kansas

00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:28.980
City Star, our newspaper, used to do the same

00:22:28.980 --> 00:22:32.700
thing. every single day, front page there would

00:22:32.700 --> 00:22:35.819
be a picture of disadvantaged black people and

00:22:35.819 --> 00:22:38.960
white people helping them. Now it's turned completely

00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:42.200
around. But eventually the Kansas City Star started

00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:44.460
getting a lot of heat saying, quit showing this,

00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:47.400
quit portraying the Kansas City black community

00:22:47.400 --> 00:22:51.769
as helpless. I remember, okay, and all this is

00:22:51.769 --> 00:22:54.170
my opinion, of course, but when I quit them because

00:22:54.170 --> 00:22:57.009
I hated their pieces, because it was all opinion

00:22:57.009 --> 00:22:59.410
pieces, no news in my opinion. And they were

00:22:59.410 --> 00:23:02.430
historically anti -union. Yes. Fuck that. Oh,

00:23:02.450 --> 00:23:04.450
yeah. There are a whole bunch of things. There's

00:23:04.450 --> 00:23:06.069
a lot of other stuff that I'm not going to get

00:23:06.069 --> 00:23:08.890
into because this is a music program. Yeah. But

00:23:08.890 --> 00:23:11.250
the thing is, is they thought that they were

00:23:11.250 --> 00:23:13.009
going to screw with me enough. In my opinion,

00:23:13.029 --> 00:23:15.230
I think this is going on. They kept calling me.

00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:18.339
So they put on this strong -armed, sounding black

00:23:18.339 --> 00:23:21.980
guy. He calls me up. Hey, how come you're not

00:23:21.980 --> 00:23:24.940
ordering the store anymore? I said, hey, how

00:23:24.940 --> 00:23:28.079
come you're calling me? He said, well, I work

00:23:28.079 --> 00:23:29.880
for the store. I said, yeah, obviously, otherwise

00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:32.839
you wouldn't give a fuck, would you? He goes,

00:23:32.940 --> 00:23:38.119
well, why are you not? And I said, okay. Number

00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:39.779
one, it's none of your business. Number two,

00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:42.200
I don't fucking like this star. Yeah. And you

00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:43.819
said, and I told him, I said, you know what I

00:23:43.819 --> 00:23:46.119
don't like even fucking more? Someone calling

00:23:46.119 --> 00:23:49.000
me up asking me this bullshit. So I said, Hey,

00:23:49.339 --> 00:23:52.279
my fellow heavy breathers, this is Dash Riptide,

00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:57.839
your music news. Walls of Jericho is a song by

00:23:57.839 --> 00:23:59.940
Bon Jovi that features a guest appearance by

00:23:59.940 --> 00:24:02.799
Def Leppard singer Joe Elliott. According to

00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:05.980
this Instagram post, The track is from the forever

00:24:05.980 --> 00:24:08.839
legendary edition of Bon Jovi's album, which

00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:12.900
was released in October 2025. The song is named

00:24:12.900 --> 00:24:15.960
Walls of Jericho. The song features Bon Jovi

00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:18.779
and Joe Elliott from Def Leppard. Jon Bon Jovi

00:24:18.779 --> 00:24:21.240
chose this song for Elliott to feature on because

00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:24.400
it's stadium rock sound that is reminiscent of

00:24:24.400 --> 00:24:26.980
both bands. It is their first ever collaboration.

00:24:27.640 --> 00:24:30.920
This is Gash Ruktine, and that was your music

00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:33.980
news. If it's too loud, you'd probably have ear

00:24:33.980 --> 00:24:57.980
damage, just like me. And I said, I will get

00:24:57.980 --> 00:25:00.319
a hold of the Attorney General along with this

00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:05.299
specific conversation that I'm having. They never

00:25:05.299 --> 00:25:08.799
called me again. Yeah, it reaches the level of

00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:12.099
harassment pretty quickly. That really is something

00:25:12.099 --> 00:25:14.240
that bugs me is when people won't take no for

00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:18.500
an answer. And I imagine their bosses tell them,

00:25:18.539 --> 00:25:20.619
don't take no for an answer, but that's not my

00:25:20.619 --> 00:25:23.279
problem. That's not my issue. I still don't want

00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:25.019
it, and I'm not going to excuse it just because

00:25:25.019 --> 00:25:27.640
their boss said they have to. That's not my issue.

00:25:27.680 --> 00:25:31.859
That's not my problem. And when I say no, take

00:25:31.859 --> 00:25:33.960
no for an answer, or I'm getting pissed off.

00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:36.799
No, that's why I am too. And if anyone's wondering,

00:25:36.900 --> 00:25:39.200
that was not derogatory towards black people.

00:25:39.339 --> 00:25:41.599
I just thought it was interesting, the decision

00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:44.880
to have this guy come on. like just kind of like

00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:47.779
tell me hey how come you're not and it's like

00:25:47.779 --> 00:25:50.099
wait a minute no no no no don't switch stuff

00:25:50.099 --> 00:25:53.480
up with this obviously guy that sounds like he

00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:55.720
can whip my ass and tell me to listen to the

00:25:55.720 --> 00:25:58.220
you know watch the by the store and all that

00:25:58.220 --> 00:26:02.059
there's an episode of a show about a radio station

00:26:02.059 --> 00:26:05.240
and only one of the employees was black but when

00:26:05.240 --> 00:26:07.960
they wanted to strong -armed somebody they had

00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:10.180
the black guy go talk to him because as they

00:26:10.180 --> 00:26:12.299
would say white people are scared of black people

00:26:12.299 --> 00:26:14.960
you go talk to him scare him well this took place

00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:17.259
in the 70s that's what i took too that was the

00:26:17.259 --> 00:26:19.440
same thing it's like they figured you would be

00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:22.339
intimidated saying no to a black man so they

00:26:22.339 --> 00:26:24.359
had a black man call you try to sell you something

00:26:24.359 --> 00:26:26.279
yeah and as a matter of fact i had an easier

00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:28.660
time talking to him because i knew he was a strong

00:26:28.660 --> 00:26:30.740
guy yeah it's like all right i'm gonna tell him

00:26:30.740 --> 00:26:33.339
exactly like it is and he's gonna understand

00:26:33.339 --> 00:26:36.079
it And it did. Yep. It worked just like I thought.

00:26:36.140 --> 00:26:38.259
I'm glad they put him on here. They thought he

00:26:38.259 --> 00:26:39.980
was going to be intimidating. I thought, all

00:26:39.980 --> 00:26:42.849
right, a one -on -one with a man. That's all

00:26:42.849 --> 00:26:45.170
I need here. Let him know. Leave me alone. I

00:26:45.170 --> 00:26:47.329
find it's interesting. You dealt with him as

00:26:47.329 --> 00:26:50.009
a man, as a person. Yes. The Kansas City Star

00:26:50.009 --> 00:26:53.170
looked at him as, we can use this black man.

00:26:53.470 --> 00:26:56.369
We can use his ethnicity to try to make a sale

00:26:56.369 --> 00:26:59.150
to this white person. Bingo. And that's the way

00:26:59.150 --> 00:27:01.869
I took it, too. And all this is allegedly in

00:27:01.869 --> 00:27:05.230
how I feel. But, no, it did happen. He did call

00:27:05.230 --> 00:27:07.769
me, and I did tell him, you know. But the thing

00:27:07.769 --> 00:27:12.839
is, is exactly. I agree with that 100%. Just

00:27:12.839 --> 00:27:15.500
dragging on. There we go. Okay, now we're fighting

00:27:15.500 --> 00:27:21.400
out. But yeah, that's kind of typical. Pull out

00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:23.799
all the stops to try to make the sale and then

00:27:23.799 --> 00:27:25.900
go back to pretending they're so virtuous. The

00:27:25.900 --> 00:27:28.480
funny thing is, is that's how it ended. because

00:27:28.480 --> 00:27:31.079
I got a guy that I knew could handle it if I

00:27:31.079 --> 00:27:33.140
told him exactly what was up, and he was, like,

00:27:33.140 --> 00:27:35.519
fine with it. What I like to do is when these

00:27:35.519 --> 00:27:37.900
places I talk to on the phone and they have the

00:27:37.900 --> 00:27:40.380
recording say, this call may be recorded for

00:27:40.380 --> 00:27:43.039
quality control. So as soon as the live person

00:27:43.039 --> 00:27:45.099
comes on, I say, I'm recording the call, too.

00:27:45.819 --> 00:27:47.759
Oh, that's awesome. You're recording the call.

00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:52.539
I'm recording it, too. Good. Yep. Well, that

00:27:52.539 --> 00:27:56.240
freaks the person out because they don't know.

00:27:57.070 --> 00:27:59.009
Nobody knows all the rules. And they don't want

00:27:59.009 --> 00:28:01.990
to be on record with anything. No. No. No, no,

00:28:02.029 --> 00:28:03.509
no. They want to be able to wheeze out and go,

00:28:03.589 --> 00:28:05.529
well, that's not what I said. Well, if you recorded

00:28:05.529 --> 00:28:08.210
it, well, hang on a minute. Let's take a listen.

00:28:08.549 --> 00:28:10.869
You know, the tape reveals, ah, I guess that

00:28:10.869 --> 00:28:16.430
is what you said, isn't it? All right. Oh, number

00:28:16.430 --> 00:28:20.829
three, You'll See by Madonna. Wow. This is back

00:28:20.829 --> 00:28:23.269
when she actually looked like a woman. Instead

00:28:23.269 --> 00:28:26.799
of the guy from Saw? Yeah. Now, to be fair, that

00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:28.720
picture where she looked like the puppet from

00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:31.720
Saw, she still had a lot of swelling from the

00:28:31.720 --> 00:28:34.000
surgery, but she was just so eager to get her

00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:36.519
face out that she went in. She looks a lot better

00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:39.680
than that now, but she still looks like she's

00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:42.279
made of plastic and wax. She doesn't look like

00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:45.200
a human being anymore. She looks like a creation.

00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:48.950
Yeah, I agree. You know, that's her choice. She

00:28:48.950 --> 00:28:51.529
gets to do it, but I really do not want to look

00:28:51.529 --> 00:28:53.210
at her face anymore because it's just unpleasant.

00:28:53.670 --> 00:28:56.430
No, I know. And the thing is, I mean, I think

00:28:56.430 --> 00:28:58.190
she would look better if she were left alone.

00:28:58.369 --> 00:29:01.430
It's a problem, you know. There's a video. You

00:29:01.430 --> 00:29:03.789
can probably find it by doing a search on YouTube.

00:29:04.009 --> 00:29:07.130
It's how celebrities would look if they'd never

00:29:07.130 --> 00:29:09.450
gotten plastic surgery done. And it's amazing

00:29:09.450 --> 00:29:12.470
how many of them look so much better. I know.

00:29:12.490 --> 00:29:15.380
I've always thought that. Ooh, those birds are

00:29:15.380 --> 00:29:17.259
having a cage match over there. Oh, yeah, look

00:29:17.259 --> 00:29:20.539
at that shit. Oh, they're all fighting. Did someone

00:29:20.539 --> 00:29:24.519
throw some drums down or something? Yeah. I think

00:29:24.519 --> 00:29:26.980
they're getting all upset about the new tax hike.

00:29:27.160 --> 00:29:33.480
Yes. All right. The next one, number four of

00:29:33.480 --> 00:29:36.539
the 30 years ago. This is classic rock now. Yeah.

00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:42.039
Golden Eyes by Tina Turner. Wow, Tina does nothing

00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:45.779
anymore. Oh, I know. I hope Tina has all the

00:29:45.779 --> 00:29:47.900
money she ever needs and is enjoying her retirement.

00:29:48.220 --> 00:29:50.680
Yeah. Because, good Lord, that woman went through

00:29:50.680 --> 00:29:52.880
a whole bunch. Oh, I know. And she put out such

00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:55.660
good music. Oh, I know. I've always adored her.

00:29:55.880 --> 00:29:59.039
Yeah. About the only thing that I really think

00:29:59.039 --> 00:30:02.039
was a mistake for her was being in the Tommy

00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:06.079
movie as the Acid Queen. Yeah. It was just embarrassing.

00:30:06.780 --> 00:30:09.119
Yeah, I would agree. I don't know how they talked

00:30:09.119 --> 00:30:12.059
her into it. She didn't need the money. No. Anyhow.

00:30:12.180 --> 00:30:14.160
It just was not a good look for her. That stinks

00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:17.819
to me, like management. Yeah. Going, hey, this

00:30:17.819 --> 00:30:19.200
would be really cool if you were here. We got

00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:21.240
you in this movie. It'll boost your career. Just

00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:24.559
do it. Yeah, yeah. I'm pretty sure all those

00:30:24.559 --> 00:30:26.380
managers were fired after that, too. Yeah, I

00:30:26.380 --> 00:30:29.759
would hope, yeah. All right, next one, 30 years

00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:33.599
ago, Waterfalls by TLC. Oh, yeah. Isn't that

00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:36.210
something? Now, that one. It does not seem like

00:30:36.210 --> 00:30:40.150
it'd be 30 years. Yeah. Man, I remember the band

00:30:40.150 --> 00:30:42.130
I was in 30 years ago and a lot of the cover

00:30:42.130 --> 00:30:46.690
songs we were doing. Wow, that's crazy to think

00:30:46.690 --> 00:30:49.650
they're classic rock. I know. At the time, it

00:30:49.650 --> 00:30:51.569
was like, hey, man, let's take this new song.

00:30:51.690 --> 00:30:55.490
We're going to impress everybody now. Wow. Loverboy

00:30:55.490 --> 00:31:01.380
is classic rock. Well, you know what? It kind

00:31:01.380 --> 00:31:04.539
of fits now because that used to be KY and 101's

00:31:04.539 --> 00:31:08.559
5 o 'clock on a Friday song. Yeah. Everybody's

00:31:08.559 --> 00:31:12.559
working for the weekend. Yeah. The yabby yabby

00:31:12.559 --> 00:31:17.839
news. Yeah. And the what's up. I think that was

00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:21.079
KY that did that one, wasn't it? Yeah. Probably

00:31:21.079 --> 00:31:24.720
Fred Rocks or something. Anyhow, all right. Or

00:31:24.720 --> 00:31:27.380
no, not Fred Rocks. Whoever came on at 5 o 'clock.

00:31:27.579 --> 00:31:32.400
Yeah. I can't remember who. Anyhow, it doesn't

00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:35.240
matter. Oh, Skid Rowdy, maybe? Yeah. Probably

00:31:35.240 --> 00:31:39.720
Skid. Skid. Squid Rowdy. Squid Rowdy. All right.

00:31:40.220 --> 00:31:46.140
The next one is Kiss from a Rose from Seal. Wow.

00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:49.039
I've heard that referenced in a lot of TV shows.

00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:52.420
I do, too. It's like the most romantic song possible

00:31:52.420 --> 00:31:57.569
to play. Yeah. Wow. Classic rock. Yeah, classic

00:31:57.569 --> 00:32:00.190
rock. This next one's going to get you. Okay.

00:32:00.789 --> 00:32:06.210
Loser by Beck. Oh, my God. You're right. That's

00:32:06.210 --> 00:32:10.789
exactly that time frame. Amazing. This next one

00:32:10.789 --> 00:32:13.269
got me, too, but when I thought about it, okay.

00:32:13.950 --> 00:32:17.930
Black Hole Sun. Soundgarden. Soundgarden. So

00:32:17.930 --> 00:32:21.069
much of grunge falls into that 30 years ago.

00:32:21.250 --> 00:32:23.809
Unless you use the German pronunciation, Soundgarden.

00:32:25.029 --> 00:32:28.569
Soundgarden. Soundgarden, yes. But I just do

00:32:28.569 --> 00:32:34.769
that. And then this one, Basket Case by Green

00:32:34.769 --> 00:32:38.309
Day. Oh, God. Classic rock. It's weird to think

00:32:38.309 --> 00:32:40.750
of Green Day as being classic rock. You hear

00:32:40.750 --> 00:32:44.089
them on 101 The Fox or, I don't know, we'll give

00:32:44.089 --> 00:32:46.990
any other classic rock station. Yeah. Pretty

00:32:46.990 --> 00:32:48.589
soon you're going to hear it in elevators and

00:32:48.589 --> 00:32:50.950
grocery stores, too. I remember when I first

00:32:50.950 --> 00:32:55.150
heard Motley Crue music version. Yes. I was like,

00:32:55.190 --> 00:32:58.109
what? So freaking weird. Oh, I was pissed. I

00:32:58.109 --> 00:33:00.170
was like, no, you can't do that. Well, they've

00:33:00.170 --> 00:33:02.210
done that and a whole bunch more. For some reason,

00:33:02.250 --> 00:33:04.450
they never had the easy listening version of

00:33:04.450 --> 00:33:07.829
Marilyn Manson or King Diamond. King Diamond

00:33:07.829 --> 00:33:10.049
would have been perfect for that. And Merciful

00:33:10.049 --> 00:33:14.509
Fate even better. Oh, gosh. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:33:14.569 --> 00:33:22.170
That melody. That melody. Yeah. So, how about

00:33:22.170 --> 00:33:26.509
albums? Okay. All right. Mariah Carey, Daydream

00:33:26.509 --> 00:33:31.549
Fantasy. 30 years old. This is before they started

00:33:31.549 --> 00:33:35.690
just unthawing her to sing All I Want for Christmas

00:33:35.690 --> 00:33:37.509
and then freezing her for next year. And then

00:33:37.509 --> 00:33:40.450
freezing her until then, yes. Sending her soul

00:33:40.450 --> 00:33:43.490
back to hell for another 364 days before she

00:33:43.490 --> 00:33:45.190
comes out and sings All I Want for Christmas

00:33:45.190 --> 00:33:47.200
again. Yeah. And if you don't listen, she'll

00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:52.500
eat your soul. Yes. I think she actually passed

00:33:52.500 --> 00:33:54.660
away years ago, and it's just an image that they

00:33:54.660 --> 00:33:56.819
use. Yeah, yeah. I think it's an AI -generated

00:33:56.819 --> 00:34:00.640
image. I think it is. Yeah. I think that, what's

00:34:00.640 --> 00:34:02.920
her name, Tommy Mottola? Yeah. Yeah, had her

00:34:02.920 --> 00:34:06.619
off, allegedly. Yeah, true. Wasn't that who she

00:34:06.619 --> 00:34:10.900
was dating, or she was married to, possibly?

00:34:12.260 --> 00:34:14.960
I can't remember. One of the higher -ups at Sony,

00:34:15.139 --> 00:34:18.849
I think. Well, anyhow, all right. Allegedly,

00:34:18.849 --> 00:34:21.550
that's what got her her job. And then after she

00:34:21.550 --> 00:34:24.090
broke up with him, she didn't have that much

00:34:24.090 --> 00:34:26.650
of a career anymore, allegedly. So, you know,

00:34:26.650 --> 00:34:28.690
whatever. I remember starting that rumor. We

00:34:28.690 --> 00:34:31.349
had a boss at the Rosedale station who was just

00:34:31.349 --> 00:34:33.929
lousy. And one day she just disappeared. They

00:34:33.929 --> 00:34:37.510
make good barbecue. Yeah. One day she disappeared

00:34:37.510 --> 00:34:39.989
and never came back. And nobody would ever say,

00:34:40.010 --> 00:34:42.369
you know, what happened to her. So I just started

00:34:42.369 --> 00:34:44.230
saying, well, I think somebody ought to get a

00:34:44.230 --> 00:34:46.150
shovel and go check the postmaster's backyard.

00:34:48.750 --> 00:34:53.289
Go check the drums around his house. I saw a

00:34:53.289 --> 00:34:58.110
couple of drums. Check underneath this porch.

00:34:58.449 --> 00:35:01.579
They'll find her in one of those oil drums. Lake

00:35:01.579 --> 00:35:06.440
Mead when the water level drops. Yeah. It's funny

00:35:06.440 --> 00:35:08.480
how they shut up about all the people they found.

00:35:08.579 --> 00:35:12.300
Yeah. Yep. Some of them might still be under

00:35:12.300 --> 00:35:14.980
investigation. I don't know. Yeah, yeah. They

00:35:14.980 --> 00:35:17.940
found one that they're pretty sure is Tony Spilotro.

00:35:18.159 --> 00:35:19.840
Yeah, yeah. They're pretty sure about that. The

00:35:19.840 --> 00:35:23.260
guy from, what is it, Casino? Casino, yeah. The

00:35:23.260 --> 00:35:25.480
Joe Pesci Carifer Casino. They're pretty sure

00:35:25.480 --> 00:35:27.789
they found him. They found him. They found him.

00:35:27.869 --> 00:35:29.710
They at least found several people that he put

00:35:29.710 --> 00:35:34.750
there. Yes, they found him, yeah. Yeah, and then

00:35:34.750 --> 00:35:38.550
he ended up there himself. Weird how that happens.

00:35:38.730 --> 00:35:41.010
No, actually, no, he wound up in a cornfield.

00:35:42.329 --> 00:35:44.329
The movie actually got that part right. Remember

00:35:44.329 --> 00:35:46.110
he and his brother, they dragged him out to a

00:35:46.110 --> 00:35:48.849
cornfield, beat them, and then buried him? The

00:35:48.849 --> 00:35:51.949
farmer found them the very next morning because

00:35:51.949 --> 00:35:54.289
he saw all this dirt that had been dug up and

00:35:54.289 --> 00:35:56.969
then put back, and he thought, poachers! That's

00:35:56.969 --> 00:35:59.150
who this is, so he dug it up and found the corpses

00:35:59.150 --> 00:36:01.250
of these two mafia dudes. Imagine that farmer.

00:36:03.869 --> 00:36:07.110
They thought that they hid those bodies so well

00:36:07.110 --> 00:36:09.530
they lasted less than 18 hours on the ground.

00:36:12.489 --> 00:36:15.610
That is funny. That's pretty funny. All right,

00:36:15.730 --> 00:36:20.969
Green Day Dookie. Oh, gosh. 30 years. Isn't there

00:36:20.969 --> 00:36:24.409
like an effects pedal that Green Day put out?

00:36:25.050 --> 00:36:27.289
It's like a distortion slash fuzz, and I think

00:36:27.289 --> 00:36:29.530
it's called Dookie. I think it is, yeah. Yeah.

00:36:29.949 --> 00:36:32.889
Because it sounds like Dookie. Sounds like Dookie,

00:36:32.889 --> 00:36:34.889
yep. Well, I'm not a big fan of fuzz anyway,

00:36:35.050 --> 00:36:38.869
so. Yeah, me neither. All right. Weezer, self

00:36:38.869 --> 00:36:42.849
-titled album. Oh, wow. Weezer as classic rock.

00:36:42.909 --> 00:36:48.150
That's kind of crazy. Yeah. Yeah, that one kind

00:36:48.150 --> 00:36:52.130
of got me. Next one. Atlantis, Morissette, Jagged

00:36:52.130 --> 00:36:57.150
Little Pill. That happy little album. Yeah. That

00:36:57.150 --> 00:37:01.510
had a lot of singles on there. She made a good

00:37:01.510 --> 00:37:05.579
living off of that album. And Dave Coulier. Yeah.

00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:08.199
Which all the songs were about, supposedly. Yeah,

00:37:08.239 --> 00:37:10.079
yeah. Oh, he admitted it. He said, oh, yeah.

00:37:10.219 --> 00:37:12.260
I started hearing that album. I started recognizing

00:37:12.260 --> 00:37:14.119
all sorts of stuff. I said, yeah, that's definitely

00:37:14.119 --> 00:37:17.179
me. Yeah, that's me. The only thing is, is he

00:37:17.179 --> 00:37:19.480
kind of took a little pride in it. He wasn't

00:37:19.480 --> 00:37:21.219
that excited. Yeah, he wasn't. No, he wasn't

00:37:21.219 --> 00:37:25.639
all that upset. Yep, yep. Yep. He did that thing

00:37:25.639 --> 00:37:27.559
that she likes, so she stuck around long enough.

00:37:27.559 --> 00:37:30.000
Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's the word on the street.

00:37:30.139 --> 00:37:32.019
Yeah, the thing with the Popsicle stick and an

00:37:32.019 --> 00:37:34.880
ice cube. Yeah, allegedly, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

00:37:36.739 --> 00:37:38.719
And a flip -flop, I don't know where that fit

00:37:38.719 --> 00:37:41.599
in, and I don't want to know. But the flip -flop

00:37:41.599 --> 00:37:43.860
has to be greased down. For whatever reason,

00:37:44.099 --> 00:37:47.260
I'm not here to judge. Yeah, and somehow the

00:37:47.260 --> 00:37:49.380
flip -flop winds up being a single use, and they

00:37:49.380 --> 00:37:52.340
have to get a new one next time. Yes, yes. I'm

00:37:52.340 --> 00:37:59.260
not here to judge either. All right, let's see.

00:37:59.320 --> 00:38:01.539
Nine Inch Nails, how about the Downward Spiral?

00:38:01.820 --> 00:38:06.139
Wow, that great album. Oh, thank you. That was

00:38:06.139 --> 00:38:09.719
an awesome concert, too. Oh, yeah. Marilyn Manson

00:38:09.719 --> 00:38:13.260
and the Jim Rose Sideshow Circus. Yeah. That

00:38:13.260 --> 00:38:14.780
was something else. Yeah, I was there. That was

00:38:14.780 --> 00:38:17.159
a great concert. I really enjoyed that one. And

00:38:17.159 --> 00:38:19.380
it was a great billing, double billing at the

00:38:19.380 --> 00:38:22.719
time, too. Yeah. They were both dark and grisly

00:38:22.719 --> 00:38:26.019
in their own way, but they were by no means alike

00:38:26.019 --> 00:38:30.480
at all. Yeah, yeah. Interesting. And I believe

00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:33.219
that was Marilyn Manson when he was going through

00:38:33.219 --> 00:38:36.920
his alien look. That was his first album. He

00:38:36.920 --> 00:38:39.159
was touring his first album, Portrait of an American

00:38:39.159 --> 00:38:41.139
Family. Oh, that's right. What struck me the

00:38:41.139 --> 00:38:45.380
most about his onstage performance was it reminded

00:38:45.380 --> 00:38:50.510
me a lot. of Alice Cooper in 1969 and 1970, when

00:38:50.510 --> 00:38:52.829
they were still kind of psychedelic. Yeah, even

00:38:52.829 --> 00:38:55.750
the makeup. I remember that now that you said

00:38:55.750 --> 00:38:57.909
that. Yeah, and Alice was about as skinny as

00:38:57.909 --> 00:39:00.849
Marilyn Manson was and dressed about the same.

00:39:01.570 --> 00:39:04.010
You could definitely see the influence. Yeah.

00:39:04.630 --> 00:39:06.989
I don't even know, do they even get along? Do

00:39:06.989 --> 00:39:09.570
they talk or anything? Yeah, Alice and Marilyn

00:39:09.570 --> 00:39:14.710
have formed at least a friendship. That's cool

00:39:14.710 --> 00:39:17.070
to know. Which tells me that Marilyn Manson really

00:39:17.070 --> 00:39:18.730
doesn't take all that stuff seriously because

00:39:18.730 --> 00:39:20.829
Alice is a born -again Christian and would not

00:39:20.829 --> 00:39:23.630
hang out with a Satanist. No, no, no. So it's

00:39:23.630 --> 00:39:26.699
all image for Marilyn Manson. Or Brian Warner,

00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:30.099
as we should say. Yeah. From Canton, Ohio. Yeah,

00:39:30.119 --> 00:39:33.980
Brian Warner from Canton, Ohio. He went to the

00:39:33.980 --> 00:39:36.659
Hall of Fame quite a few times. Yeah? Yeah, yeah.

00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:39.179
He loved it. Maybe he was there when I was there.

00:39:39.280 --> 00:39:41.280
Yeah, he probably was. He's probably there right

00:39:41.280 --> 00:39:45.079
now. Yeah. He was there with Baker Mayfield and

00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:47.440
Alice Cooper, actually. Strange enough. Both

00:39:47.440 --> 00:39:50.679
of them, yeah. So, all right. All right, the

00:39:50.679 --> 00:39:56.219
next one. Offspring. The offspring, Smash. Yeah.

00:39:56.500 --> 00:40:02.719
30 years old. Almost makes me want to cry. Yeah,

00:40:02.800 --> 00:40:05.179
yeah. Of course, the guitar player is even older

00:40:05.179 --> 00:40:07.039
than that because he was the janitor at the high

00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:10.619
school where the rest of them were going. And

00:40:10.619 --> 00:40:12.679
here's the rest of the guys trying to get this

00:40:12.679 --> 00:40:14.719
band going, and the janitor at the high school

00:40:14.719 --> 00:40:16.340
was so much older, he's like, hey, I'll play

00:40:16.340 --> 00:40:19.639
guitar for you. I think I do remember a little

00:40:19.639 --> 00:40:23.300
bit about that. Yeah. Okay, wow. He's from an

00:40:23.300 --> 00:40:30.360
older generation than them. Okay. Old man of

00:40:30.360 --> 00:40:33.099
the group. Old man of the group, yep. All right.

00:40:33.380 --> 00:40:36.400
How about a little list of Tina Turner's famous

00:40:36.400 --> 00:40:39.380
lovers? Ooh, I like this. I got this because

00:40:39.380 --> 00:40:42.659
AI suggested it after I was looking up the albums

00:40:42.659 --> 00:40:48.639
and Tina Turner was on there. Okay. Erwin Bach.

00:40:50.539 --> 00:40:57.110
Famous person. Yeah. Well, I can see that. He

00:40:57.110 --> 00:41:01.389
wanted to see if Brown Sugar really was true.

00:41:02.710 --> 00:41:05.630
Yeah. I'd say it was written about her, but no.

00:41:05.849 --> 00:41:10.190
That was before. Way before, yeah. I never thought

00:41:10.190 --> 00:41:13.070
about that. Well, actually, Brown Sugar's not

00:41:13.070 --> 00:41:15.530
that good of a song. I'm talking about lyrically.

00:41:15.889 --> 00:41:20.699
Well, actually, all around. Yeah. Yeah. It became

00:41:20.699 --> 00:41:23.480
huge on shock value, basically, and then it's

00:41:23.480 --> 00:41:27.400
just become part of the canon. But, yeah, I don't

00:41:27.400 --> 00:41:29.300
listen. When it comes on the radio, I turn it.

00:41:29.400 --> 00:41:31.480
Yeah. Because I'm so tired of it. Yeah, me too.

00:41:32.360 --> 00:41:36.099
David Bowie. Yeah. I'd forgotten all about David

00:41:36.099 --> 00:41:39.219
Bowie. Yeah, he was a very equal opportunity

00:41:39.219 --> 00:41:43.480
lover. Yes, he was. Yeah. Yeah, especially in

00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:47.219
the 70s. He was very equal opportunity. Yeah.

00:41:48.400 --> 00:41:50.900
He didn't even care what gender you were, let

00:41:50.900 --> 00:41:52.699
alone what color your skin was. That's what I

00:41:52.699 --> 00:41:55.019
was going to say. Fucking floor rug. Yeah. Yeah,

00:41:55.019 --> 00:41:58.360
he'd fuck it. Allegedly. Payphone. He'd fuck

00:41:58.360 --> 00:42:01.659
it. I think he was allegedly caught inserting

00:42:01.659 --> 00:42:05.519
a parking meter once. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Allegedly,

00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:10.380
of course. All right. Yeah, we can look forward

00:42:10.380 --> 00:42:13.460
to the estate coming after us. If that wasn't

00:42:13.460 --> 00:42:18.639
allegedly, we're on the street. All that. James

00:42:18.639 --> 00:42:24.000
Ralston. From the Ralston Purina family. Yes,

00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:26.139
absolutely. I don't know. I'm not sure about

00:42:26.139 --> 00:42:28.639
it. I don't know why it was on the list. Who

00:42:28.639 --> 00:42:31.320
is James Ralston? I don't recall that at all.

00:42:31.440 --> 00:42:35.440
I thought you were saying Sam Walton. Yes, it's

00:42:35.440 --> 00:42:39.659
Sam Walton. The only thing is he made her go

00:42:39.659 --> 00:42:41.920
out to the shed and back and live there. It was

00:42:41.920 --> 00:42:48.329
crazy. And go through the self -checkout. That's

00:42:48.329 --> 00:42:50.349
what led to them breaking up. Yeah, he sent her

00:42:50.349 --> 00:42:51.849
through self -checkout and then accused her of

00:42:51.849 --> 00:42:55.110
stealing. The good thing is, is Walmart decided

00:42:55.110 --> 00:42:59.030
to close the store on Christmas because they

00:42:59.030 --> 00:43:01.969
wanted all the hard -working self -checkout customers

00:43:01.969 --> 00:43:09.949
to have the day off. They care so much. Yeah,

00:43:10.050 --> 00:43:12.829
the last time I went through a Walmart self -checkout,

00:43:13.190 --> 00:43:15.050
They stopped me before I left and said, no, no,

00:43:15.070 --> 00:43:16.769
you've got to go back and do inventory because

00:43:16.769 --> 00:43:22.030
you work here now. I asked him last time. The

00:43:22.030 --> 00:43:24.449
guy does not like me because here's what happens.

00:43:24.489 --> 00:43:29.039
I've told this on the dish bags. Okay, they tried

00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:31.360
to do at the store up there on State Line, they

00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:33.480
tried to do this, have someone check the receipts,

00:43:33.500 --> 00:43:36.780
like a Costco or a Sam's Club, but the only thing

00:43:36.780 --> 00:43:38.760
is they're not a club. Yeah, if they're a club,

00:43:38.840 --> 00:43:40.820
they can stop you and ask to see your receipt.

00:43:40.820 --> 00:43:42.880
Bylaws, yeah, when you sign that piece of paper,

00:43:42.980 --> 00:43:45.199
that's what you're doing. Yeah. But they don't

00:43:45.199 --> 00:43:47.280
have the right to do that there. They have to

00:43:47.280 --> 00:43:51.900
have clear and reasonable suspicion that you're

00:43:51.900 --> 00:43:56.550
actually breaking the law and be able to... name

00:43:56.550 --> 00:43:58.789
what it is they think you did wrong. They can't

00:43:58.789 --> 00:44:00.309
just say, hey, we want to check your receipt.

00:44:00.789 --> 00:44:02.730
They've got to show that they think you're stealing

00:44:02.730 --> 00:44:05.570
and tell you exactly why they think you're stealing

00:44:05.570 --> 00:44:07.610
or you don't have to show your receipt. Oh, no,

00:44:07.630 --> 00:44:09.409
no, no. And I've done this to this guy. He's

00:44:09.409 --> 00:44:11.650
an older guy. He's a nice guy when he's not there,

00:44:11.750 --> 00:44:14.530
but he thinks he has to do his job to a flaw.

00:44:14.869 --> 00:44:17.949
And so what I did now is I started doing, and

00:44:17.949 --> 00:44:21.349
so I'll have, I'll get the receipt. And when

00:44:21.349 --> 00:44:24.019
you're doing the... It'll say, self -checkout,

00:44:24.039 --> 00:44:27.059
it'll say, would you like a receipt? Would you

00:44:27.059 --> 00:44:30.500
like an email to you? Would you like a text to

00:44:30.500 --> 00:44:33.960
you? All this stuff, right? Okay. So I print

00:44:33.960 --> 00:44:37.300
the print one. I have it in my hand. And I have

00:44:37.300 --> 00:44:40.619
it in my hand and my groceries in the cart. And

00:44:40.619 --> 00:44:43.139
he goes and he's like, can I see your receipt?

00:44:43.500 --> 00:44:45.659
And I use the hand that the receipt's in and

00:44:45.659 --> 00:44:49.440
I go, I had an email to me. So now he has to

00:44:49.440 --> 00:44:52.380
call you a liar. Yes, but he won't. He cannot

00:44:52.380 --> 00:44:54.199
do that. No, because you're a customer. They

00:44:54.199 --> 00:44:56.280
don't dare do that. Then he goes, well, can you

00:44:56.280 --> 00:44:58.980
get on your phone? And I said, certainly not.

00:45:02.539 --> 00:45:04.960
And then he gives me this look. And he goes,

00:45:05.059 --> 00:45:06.619
you can download the app. And I turn around and

00:45:06.619 --> 00:45:09.219
I go, what? I go, do you have a problem with

00:45:09.219 --> 00:45:13.519
me walking through here? No, no, no. No, not

00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:15.760
at all. And I go, then what was that look for

00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:18.309
when you said I could download the app? I'm not

00:45:18.309 --> 00:45:20.969
downloading the fucking app. Yeah. I said, I

00:45:20.969 --> 00:45:23.449
don't have enough time. Am I free to go or are

00:45:23.449 --> 00:45:28.309
you detaining me? He walked off. He turned around

00:45:28.309 --> 00:45:30.389
and didn't say a word. Making it a customer relations

00:45:30.389 --> 00:45:33.829
nightmare. Yeah, it was. He had no answer for

00:45:33.829 --> 00:45:36.769
anything. Except, well, you can download the

00:45:36.769 --> 00:45:39.960
app. No, I'm not going to download the app. The

00:45:39.960 --> 00:45:42.239
app is going to be, I don't want it, number one.

00:45:42.260 --> 00:45:43.840
Number two, if I did want it, I wouldn't do it

00:45:43.840 --> 00:45:45.559
because we all know that all they're going to

00:45:45.559 --> 00:45:49.800
do is advertise you constantly. I saw one clip.

00:45:49.980 --> 00:45:51.920
It was probably a setup because it looked too

00:45:51.920 --> 00:45:54.019
perfect. But as he was walking out, the guy asked

00:45:54.019 --> 00:45:58.039
for his receipt. And he said, you know, what

00:45:58.039 --> 00:46:00.750
crime do you think I committed? And he's like,

00:46:00.849 --> 00:46:02.849
well, no, I just wanted to see your receipt.

00:46:02.949 --> 00:46:04.710
And they said, okay, then follow me because I'm

00:46:04.710 --> 00:46:06.250
going to go out to my car and load my groceries.

00:46:06.409 --> 00:46:08.150
So you come with me and you can see my receipt.

00:46:09.070 --> 00:46:11.670
Make him leave the post, leave the store, and

00:46:11.670 --> 00:46:13.909
walk all the way up to the parking lot. And then

00:46:13.909 --> 00:46:16.389
when he gets there, change your mind. There's

00:46:16.389 --> 00:46:19.329
nothing they can do about it. Nope. And then

00:46:19.329 --> 00:46:23.030
use a good old, am I being detained? Yes. That

00:46:23.030 --> 00:46:25.349
scares the hell out of them. Yep. Because they

00:46:25.349 --> 00:46:27.789
can't say yes, and if they do, you have a lawsuit.

00:46:28.289 --> 00:46:33.199
Unlawful. restrained or unlawful arrest. You

00:46:33.199 --> 00:46:35.099
can't call it really imprisonment. Yeah, yeah.

00:46:35.980 --> 00:46:38.860
Good. Yeah, no, they have to just be like, okay.

00:46:38.940 --> 00:46:41.019
And if they march you back to the manager's office

00:46:41.019 --> 00:46:42.880
and sit you down and close the door, that's kidnapping.

00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:48.139
Yeah, yep. Absolutely kidnapping. Yep. So, anyhow.

00:46:48.599 --> 00:46:52.079
Make them sweat. Anyhow, the last word of Tina

00:46:52.079 --> 00:46:56.199
Turner is Ike Turner. So, anyhow. I guess he

00:46:56.199 --> 00:46:58.260
did have... Well, you can't really call it sex.

00:46:58.300 --> 00:47:01.059
He basically raped her, which is an act of violence.

00:47:01.079 --> 00:47:05.019
It's not sex. Oh, that guy was... Yeah. Yeah.

00:47:05.599 --> 00:47:09.980
From what we hear. Yeah. All right. Let's see.

00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:17.039
I have other stuff here. We have some... Do you

00:47:17.039 --> 00:47:19.840
have anything I forgot to ask you? Something

00:47:19.840 --> 00:47:21.940
I've noticed is the entertainment news, I guess.

00:47:22.099 --> 00:47:26.260
Okay. I started... I've been watching... some

00:47:26.260 --> 00:47:30.760
documentaries about some of the mafia crime families

00:47:30.760 --> 00:47:35.099
from the 30s through the 80s or 90s, whenever

00:47:35.099 --> 00:47:38.199
it all fell apart. And there's been a number

00:47:38.199 --> 00:47:41.780
of them who go in and co -opt a political party.

00:47:42.199 --> 00:47:45.320
I mean, Tom Pendergast did, Joe Costello did.

00:47:46.679 --> 00:47:53.519
Who else? Whoever got Truman elected. That was

00:47:53.519 --> 00:47:56.829
Pendergast. That was Pendergast. And I started

00:47:56.829 --> 00:47:59.389
looking through all these movies and all these

00:47:59.389 --> 00:48:01.690
documentaries about organized crime, and every

00:48:01.690 --> 00:48:05.070
time that the mafia got involved in a political

00:48:05.070 --> 00:48:07.489
party, it was the same political party over and

00:48:07.489 --> 00:48:10.070
over and over and over. Well, let me guess. Could

00:48:10.070 --> 00:48:13.030
it have a donkey as its... I believe it does,

00:48:13.030 --> 00:48:16.110
yeah. And the D is also very important. But it's

00:48:16.110 --> 00:48:19.469
kind of amazing that organized crime always goes

00:48:19.469 --> 00:48:22.550
after that political party to corrupt and co

00:48:22.550 --> 00:48:25.789
-opt and twist. Gee, I wonder why that... It

00:48:25.789 --> 00:48:28.929
is. Just something to think about. Well, my union

00:48:28.929 --> 00:48:31.389
that I was in for many, many years that I'm now

00:48:31.389 --> 00:48:34.289
retired from, they used to tell me to vote for

00:48:34.289 --> 00:48:36.889
it because that's who they paid. My union does

00:48:36.889 --> 00:48:38.889
the same thing. Oh, it used to piss me off to

00:48:38.889 --> 00:48:42.789
go in. And that was back when, you know, I still

00:48:42.789 --> 00:48:48.230
saw some local politicians that I liked. I really

00:48:48.230 --> 00:48:51.050
didn't care so much about the D or the R or anything.

00:48:51.090 --> 00:48:56.059
Well, I still don't. No. But... I didn't even

00:48:56.059 --> 00:48:57.940
like him, and I told him that too. I'm like,

00:48:58.000 --> 00:48:59.820
I don't like this guy. I think he's a piece of

00:48:59.820 --> 00:49:01.679
crap. Well, we paid for him. I go, no, no, no.

00:49:02.539 --> 00:49:05.780
You paid for him. Yeah, I remember telling the

00:49:05.780 --> 00:49:08.619
local president, I don't want you spending my

00:49:08.619 --> 00:49:12.179
union dues buying politicians. And he basically

00:49:12.179 --> 00:49:15.139
said, it's not up to you. I was like, all right.

00:49:15.659 --> 00:49:18.760
So much for union representation. Yeah, yes.

00:49:20.510 --> 00:49:22.670
They'll take my side against management, but

00:49:22.670 --> 00:49:24.510
they will not take my side against the union.

00:49:24.769 --> 00:49:29.429
They like to use fear. Yeah. Do you know if those

00:49:29.429 --> 00:49:31.530
sneaky Republicans get in, they're going to end

00:49:31.530 --> 00:49:35.349
all, all, all unions. That's a bill on the table

00:49:35.349 --> 00:49:37.250
right now. As soon as they get one in. Yeah,

00:49:37.250 --> 00:49:39.190
yeah, yeah. He tried to shame me when I stood

00:49:39.190 --> 00:49:40.769
up to him in the break room and said, no, I'm

00:49:40.769 --> 00:49:42.929
not voting for who you tell me to vote for. In

00:49:42.929 --> 00:49:44.710
fact, I'm not telling you who I'm voting for.

00:49:44.750 --> 00:49:46.429
I'm going to make up my own mind when I'm in

00:49:46.429 --> 00:49:48.960
the voting booth. And he tried to shame me. It's

00:49:48.960 --> 00:49:51.300
like, well, you're working against your own union,

00:49:51.360 --> 00:49:53.559
and you need to stand with your brothers and

00:49:53.559 --> 00:49:56.179
sisters. And I looked around, and nobody was

00:49:56.179 --> 00:49:58.019
paying attention to him. Nobody gave a shit.

00:49:58.059 --> 00:49:59.860
They're like, yeah, this guy's full of shit.

00:49:59.980 --> 00:50:01.900
Yeah, everybody knew at that point he was just

00:50:01.900 --> 00:50:04.780
full of shit. Yeah. Yeah, they tried the fear

00:50:04.780 --> 00:50:07.179
tactic on me, too. You know, like, yeah, if they

00:50:07.179 --> 00:50:09.920
get in office, you're done. There'll be no more

00:50:09.920 --> 00:50:11.860
unions ever. And all I said, I'm like thinking,

00:50:11.960 --> 00:50:14.000
okay, well, I don't think that's how it works.

00:50:14.260 --> 00:50:17.199
Yeah, yeah. And I tend to think that if the whole

00:50:17.199 --> 00:50:19.500
thing's going to fall apart, if the wrong political

00:50:19.500 --> 00:50:22.059
party gets in power, then what you got ain't

00:50:22.059 --> 00:50:24.340
all that strong anyway, is it? Yep. No, I know.

00:50:24.480 --> 00:50:27.440
And the last time I talked to one of the union

00:50:27.440 --> 00:50:29.539
reps before I went ahead and went to the place

00:50:29.539 --> 00:50:32.920
before I'm at now, which was out of the union

00:50:32.920 --> 00:50:37.420
when I went to him, I'm like, will it affect

00:50:37.420 --> 00:50:39.800
my pension? No. Okay, then I don't give a shit

00:50:39.800 --> 00:50:43.880
if this thing goes under. He had no more to say.

00:50:44.320 --> 00:50:47.599
I said, no, I don't have one ounce of shit about

00:50:47.599 --> 00:50:49.840
what happens to you guys as long as I get my

00:50:49.840 --> 00:50:54.400
money at the end of the day. As a matter of fact,

00:50:54.480 --> 00:50:56.179
I mean, I didn't tell him this, but now I would.

00:50:56.179 --> 00:50:58.980
I'm hoping fuckers go under as long as it doesn't

00:50:58.980 --> 00:51:02.000
touch my pension. Yeah. If any organization is

00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:05.219
corrupt, I'm okay with them flaming out and going

00:51:05.219 --> 00:51:08.389
away. I was done with them. When I found out

00:51:08.389 --> 00:51:10.230
a guy that I worked with that was there for like

00:51:10.230 --> 00:51:12.190
three years, and I was there for, I don't know,

00:51:12.250 --> 00:51:14.789
like 20 years, okay, and I've been in the union

00:51:14.789 --> 00:51:17.809
20 years, all this service, and there's this

00:51:17.809 --> 00:51:23.050
really good job at this metal place in Kansas

00:51:23.050 --> 00:51:25.989
City in downtown, right? So I go in there to

00:51:25.989 --> 00:51:29.409
get the job, and I see a guy that I worked with

00:51:29.409 --> 00:51:31.449
for like three years, and he didn't know that

00:51:31.449 --> 00:51:34.780
much. He's already working there. And I'm like,

00:51:34.800 --> 00:51:36.400
I didn't even see him on the out -of -work list.

00:51:37.059 --> 00:51:40.539
His first name was John. I go, John, how'd you

00:51:40.539 --> 00:51:45.880
get on here? He goes, oh, my kid goes to softball

00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:47.880
with, I can't say his name, but the president

00:51:47.880 --> 00:51:51.900
of the union at the time, Aldis allegedly, with

00:51:51.900 --> 00:51:55.579
his grandson. And I'm like, so what? You talk

00:51:55.579 --> 00:51:57.199
to him? He goes, yeah, yeah. He told me to come

00:51:57.199 --> 00:52:01.130
down here and fill out an app. And I walked away,

00:52:01.289 --> 00:52:04.929
and like, I don't want that anymore. I'm stepping

00:52:04.929 --> 00:52:07.070
out, fucking off on my own job, which I did.

00:52:07.269 --> 00:52:11.150
Yeah, the thing that pissed me off the most about

00:52:11.150 --> 00:52:14.170
my union, well, there's two things, but I'll

00:52:14.170 --> 00:52:19.750
just tell one of them. There was a day that management

00:52:19.750 --> 00:52:22.969
broke the contract to require me to work my day

00:52:22.969 --> 00:52:26.639
off. Okay. And I had to go in and work it, even

00:52:26.639 --> 00:52:28.400
though it was a violation of the contract. And

00:52:28.400 --> 00:52:30.599
then I filed the grievance afterwards that you

00:52:30.599 --> 00:52:33.519
bypassed the correct procedure. I shouldn't have

00:52:33.519 --> 00:52:35.480
had to work. This other person shouldn't have

00:52:35.480 --> 00:52:41.000
had to work. So when my grievance came up, it

00:52:41.000 --> 00:52:43.840
came up at the same time as this other instance

00:52:43.840 --> 00:52:47.039
where a carrier had actually broken the rules

00:52:47.039 --> 00:52:51.920
by leaving his vehicle door open. and going inside

00:52:51.920 --> 00:52:54.840
the place of business. So anything in his vehicle

00:52:54.840 --> 00:52:56.639
could have been stolen while he was in there

00:52:56.639 --> 00:52:59.119
jacking around in the business. So he actually

00:52:59.119 --> 00:53:03.360
committed a breach of the rules. A breach of

00:53:03.360 --> 00:53:06.260
rules was committed against me, but the union

00:53:06.260 --> 00:53:09.920
traded them off. This girl is Steve's daughter.

00:53:11.619 --> 00:53:15.579
That is her? Yeah. Is that her? That's her daughter.

00:53:15.900 --> 00:53:21.650
Oh, okay. So when the thing came up to a head,

00:53:21.769 --> 00:53:29.170
they said, we're going to let post office off

00:53:29.170 --> 00:53:32.590
on mandating you and let them get away with that

00:53:32.590 --> 00:53:36.550
in return for they're not going to press charges

00:53:36.550 --> 00:53:38.650
against this other carrier who left his door

00:53:38.650 --> 00:53:43.550
open. So he gets off in return for your thing

00:53:43.550 --> 00:53:45.920
going away. And I said, wait a minute, how does

00:53:45.920 --> 00:53:48.079
that help me? Wait a minute, yeah. He said, well,

00:53:48.119 --> 00:53:50.539
it helps your union brother. And I said, I don't

00:53:50.539 --> 00:53:52.880
give a shit. He did the wrong thing. He knows

00:53:52.880 --> 00:53:55.139
he did it wrong. He admitted he did it wrong.

00:53:55.199 --> 00:53:58.079
He needs to pay the price for that. I did nothing

00:53:58.079 --> 00:54:00.340
wrong, and I get screwed over? Well, it's the

00:54:00.340 --> 00:54:05.440
way it works. So at that point, I learned definitely

00:54:05.440 --> 00:54:08.699
in that union, it's who you know and who likes

00:54:08.699 --> 00:54:12.599
you, you're going to get taken care of, and everybody

00:54:12.599 --> 00:54:14.539
else is just going to get run over. And they

00:54:14.539 --> 00:54:17.719
decided to run over me that day. Yep. No, I've

00:54:17.719 --> 00:54:20.079
had that happen so many times. Yeah. In that,

00:54:20.239 --> 00:54:23.420
like, you're learning how to do something new,

00:54:23.480 --> 00:54:25.440
and the guy that does it has a problem because

00:54:25.440 --> 00:54:27.079
you're taking work away from him. It's like,

00:54:27.159 --> 00:54:29.659
well, how can I learn this if I can't even do

00:54:29.659 --> 00:54:33.519
it? Yeah. You know. Yeah. All the stupid rules

00:54:33.519 --> 00:54:38.340
and all that. So, all right. Let's see. You got

00:54:38.340 --> 00:54:40.360
something else? I got a few things. I'm really

00:54:40.360 --> 00:54:44.389
kind of tapped over here. Okay. I've got a story

00:54:44.389 --> 00:54:47.110
I'm working on about a... There's apparently

00:54:47.110 --> 00:54:50.010
a guitar factory over in China that puts out

00:54:50.010 --> 00:54:54.690
one out of every seven electric guitars sold

00:54:54.690 --> 00:54:57.550
in the world. Really? One out of every seven

00:54:57.550 --> 00:55:01.369
comes out of this one factory. 2 .25 million

00:55:01.369 --> 00:55:04.650
guitars a year, and there's a whole list of very

00:55:04.650 --> 00:55:06.630
famous brand names that are all made in that

00:55:06.630 --> 00:55:09.750
one factory. So there's really not much of a

00:55:09.750 --> 00:55:11.429
difference between those different brands as

00:55:11.429 --> 00:55:13.570
you might think because the exact same people

00:55:13.570 --> 00:55:15.110
are building them on the exact same assembly

00:55:15.110 --> 00:55:18.250
line. So I'm going to gather all that up and

00:55:18.250 --> 00:55:22.949
have that ready for next time. Very cool. I have

00:55:22.949 --> 00:55:25.050
more music stuff, but I think I'm just going

00:55:25.050 --> 00:55:28.650
to go with some regular stories here. I think

00:55:28.650 --> 00:55:30.789
it's important to switch it up every day. Hey,

00:55:30.789 --> 00:55:33.670
my fellow heavy breeders. This is Dash Riptide,

00:55:33.829 --> 00:55:40.309
your music news. Graham Bonnet Band is currently

00:55:40.309 --> 00:55:42.929
working on their fourth album. Graham said it's

00:55:42.929 --> 00:55:45.090
very possible Bruce Dickinson might guest on

00:55:45.090 --> 00:55:47.989
a song or two on his new album. Bruce is a big

00:55:47.989 --> 00:55:50.369
fan of Graham's ever since his days in Rainbow.

00:55:51.050 --> 00:55:54.289
Two fantastic lead singers in one song kind of

00:55:54.289 --> 00:55:56.789
reminds me of Deep Purple's Mark III lineup with

00:55:56.789 --> 00:55:59.349
Glenn Hughes and David Coverdale. This should

00:55:59.349 --> 00:56:03.929
be pretty damn good. We will see. This is Gash

00:56:03.929 --> 00:56:07.429
Rooktine, and that was your music news. If it's

00:56:07.429 --> 00:56:09.869
too loud... you'd probably have ear damage, just

00:56:09.869 --> 00:56:46.199
like me. A tiny Jesus. A taxidermy bobcat. Several

00:56:46.199 --> 00:56:58.760
Tonka toys. Old shoes. One croc, just one with

00:56:58.760 --> 00:57:06.210
a hole in it. A box of rubbers. Uh -huh. Yeah,

00:57:06.210 --> 00:57:08.150
yeah. I mean, at least that could be used again.

00:57:08.230 --> 00:57:10.610
I mean, you know, they weren't used. As far as

00:57:10.610 --> 00:57:14.949
I know, it was an unopened box. Yeah. And, finally,

00:57:15.289 --> 00:57:22.250
an alligator. Wow. A real alligator. A real alligator.

00:57:22.309 --> 00:57:25.010
And it wasn't taxed. I don't know what they did.

00:57:25.090 --> 00:57:29.449
It doesn't say whether they, you know, they're

00:57:29.449 --> 00:57:31.389
like, okay, we see an alligator, but we don't

00:57:31.389 --> 00:57:32.889
want it. I'm pretty sure that's what they did.

00:57:33.110 --> 00:57:37.000
Yeah. The guy brought in an alligator. I guess

00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:40.059
it's better than a severed human head. Quite

00:57:40.059 --> 00:57:42.659
a bit better, but still. I would love to see

00:57:42.659 --> 00:57:44.260
the look on the people's face when a guy brought

00:57:44.260 --> 00:57:48.519
in an alligator. Here, I got it in this box over

00:57:48.519 --> 00:57:53.460
here, buddy. But it didn't go into detail about

00:57:53.460 --> 00:57:55.079
what they did. I'm pretty sure they didn't keep

00:57:55.079 --> 00:57:57.239
it. Yeah, I wonder how much credit they got for

00:57:57.239 --> 00:58:00.150
an alligator. That didn't go into that either.

00:58:00.289 --> 00:58:01.750
I'd love to know how much money. At least a couple

00:58:01.750 --> 00:58:04.309
of bucks. I would think so. I'd give him ten.

00:58:04.469 --> 00:58:10.329
Wouldn't you? Yeah. I'd go ten. I've got some

00:58:10.329 --> 00:58:12.449
other little assorted stories if that's cool.

00:58:12.590 --> 00:58:16.159
All right. On December 7th, the Washington Post

00:58:16.159 --> 00:58:18.320
reported a drone flew over the Lee Correctional

00:58:18.320 --> 00:58:21.139
Institution in Bishopville, South Carolina, and

00:58:21.139 --> 00:58:23.400
dropped the ingredients for a swishy holiday

00:58:23.400 --> 00:58:27.000
dinner. Yeah, so they're not sending them stuff

00:58:27.000 --> 00:58:31.500
to break out. They're sending them dinners. Steak.

00:58:32.340 --> 00:58:36.699
Crab legs. Along with a small container of Old

00:58:36.699 --> 00:58:42.920
Bay seasoning. Two bags of marijuana. And a pack

00:58:42.920 --> 00:58:46.219
of Marlboro cigarettes. They thought of everything.

00:58:47.039 --> 00:58:50.199
Steak, home -based seasoning with your crabs.

00:58:51.380 --> 00:58:55.239
Wow. That's weird to think that prisons will

00:58:55.239 --> 00:58:58.190
now have to... get laws passed about protecting

00:58:58.190 --> 00:59:01.130
the airspace over the prison. Yeah. I was amazed

00:59:01.130 --> 00:59:04.210
that the drone wasn't shot down. Yeah. I mean,

00:59:04.230 --> 00:59:06.269
couldn't they go, oh, wait a minute, the drone's

00:59:06.269 --> 00:59:08.190
not supposed to be here, boom. You don't care

00:59:08.190 --> 00:59:10.210
whose it is or what it is, you shoot it down.

00:59:10.289 --> 00:59:12.389
Yeah, because that drone could be carrying, you

00:59:12.389 --> 00:59:16.190
know, nerve gas or a bundle of dynamite, whatever.

00:59:16.530 --> 00:59:18.550
Yeah, they could have, like, threw a bunch of

00:59:18.550 --> 00:59:20.429
fucking weapons down for him, hand grenades,

00:59:20.510 --> 00:59:23.269
you know, you don't know. I mean, yeah. So...

00:59:24.559 --> 00:59:26.679
Anyhow, the Concord Man was picked up by law

00:59:26.679 --> 00:59:28.960
enforcement before reaching its attendant recipients.

00:59:30.019 --> 00:59:33.260
The prison receives nightly attacks of drones

00:59:33.260 --> 00:59:37.840
trying to drop drugs into prison yards. But this

00:59:37.840 --> 00:59:40.340
was a bit unusual, even for us. I'm guessing

00:59:40.340 --> 00:59:43.780
the inmates were expecting this package and never

00:59:43.780 --> 00:59:46.280
got it. They're probably a bit crabby. Yeah.

00:59:46.400 --> 00:59:51.980
I did not write that. I can just see. Probably

00:59:51.980 --> 00:59:54.719
every single day, a relative of one of the inmates

00:59:54.719 --> 00:59:58.199
goes, I just had a great idea. We'll fly a drone

00:59:58.199 --> 01:00:00.659
over and drop stuff off to him. Nobody's ever

01:00:00.659 --> 01:00:02.559
thought of that before. I know. I thought of

01:00:02.559 --> 01:00:04.920
that too. It's like someone's sitting at home

01:00:04.920 --> 01:00:09.199
going, hey. About 10 ,000 people are having the

01:00:09.199 --> 01:00:11.159
same idea and thinking they're the first ones

01:00:11.159 --> 01:00:13.239
who thought it up and nobody else did. Yeah.

01:00:14.360 --> 01:00:16.599
They don't realize what happened to the other

01:00:16.599 --> 01:00:20.130
one. Yeah. That's exactly what I thought, too.

01:00:20.230 --> 01:00:22.090
Someone sitting around going, hey, man, we really

01:00:22.090 --> 01:00:25.250
got him now. Hey, go in and throw in some steaks

01:00:25.250 --> 01:00:28.670
and some crab legs. Don't get the box of rubbers.

01:00:29.150 --> 01:00:32.269
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like, who's he having

01:00:32.269 --> 01:00:36.630
sex with in an all -male prison? That's a good

01:00:36.630 --> 01:00:39.250
point. Yeah. Okay, you know what? I agree with

01:00:39.250 --> 01:00:42.750
whatever you said. Think about this. Remember

01:00:42.750 --> 01:00:46.889
the old, old Elvis Presley song, Jailhouse Rock?

01:00:47.110 --> 01:00:50.219
Uh -huh. Now there's a line in there where he

01:00:50.219 --> 01:00:53.739
says, Number 47 said to Number 3, You're the

01:00:53.739 --> 01:00:56.239
cutest jailbird I ever did see. I sure would

01:00:56.239 --> 01:00:58.719
be delighted with your company. Come on and do

01:00:58.719 --> 01:01:01.539
the jailhouse rock with me. Now this is an all

01:01:01.539 --> 01:01:06.219
-men's prison. So even in the 50s, Elvis was

01:01:06.219 --> 01:01:09.800
singing a song about prison sex. And it was being

01:01:09.800 --> 01:01:13.699
played on the radio. Because those are all men

01:01:13.699 --> 01:01:15.659
in that prison, and he was singing about them

01:01:15.659 --> 01:01:19.659
having dates and having sex. This is one of the

01:01:19.659 --> 01:01:24.719
dirtiest songs out there for the time. Wow. It's

01:01:24.719 --> 01:01:27.260
like, who's your romantic partner in the prison?

01:01:27.400 --> 01:01:31.300
It's got to be another guy. And in the 50s, you

01:01:31.300 --> 01:01:33.420
just didn't sing about that on the radio. No.

01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:37.320
Well, you got them. Talk about one getting right

01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:41.329
past the censors. Yeah. They're just like the

01:01:41.329 --> 01:01:43.230
songs that have obvious cussing in them that

01:01:43.230 --> 01:01:46.429
no one's ever questioned. Yeah. Like Watchtower,

01:01:46.570 --> 01:01:48.289
you know, let's stop talking bullshit. Everybody

01:01:48.289 --> 01:01:51.409
knows that. Everybody sings it. Yep. Pink Floyd's

01:01:51.409 --> 01:01:53.630
Money, don't give me that do -goody -good bullshit.

01:01:53.969 --> 01:01:58.110
Yep. The Who. Who Are You? Yeah. Who the fuck

01:01:58.110 --> 01:02:02.780
are you? Yeah. Yeah, it's amazing how these radio

01:02:02.780 --> 01:02:05.539
edits got through there, and they've been accepted.

01:02:05.800 --> 01:02:07.780
People have heard them so much, they don't even

01:02:07.780 --> 01:02:11.360
realize they're customers. Yep. I'm thinking

01:02:11.360 --> 01:02:13.619
maybe the right people got paid. I think so,

01:02:13.679 --> 01:02:16.800
too. Yeah. Home's got grace. Yeah. Keep bullshit

01:02:16.800 --> 01:02:19.639
in there. Yeah. It's all right. A &M said they'd

01:02:19.639 --> 01:02:23.679
pay. All right. Okay. Allegedly. Allegedly. Yeah.

01:02:23.840 --> 01:02:25.780
All right. I got a little bit different story

01:02:25.780 --> 01:02:28.469
here. Sure. In Japan, millions of families will

01:02:28.469 --> 01:02:31.889
head to their local KFC on Christmas Day for

01:02:31.889 --> 01:02:35.329
chicken and fixings. Yahoo! I've got to say it

01:02:35.329 --> 01:02:37.090
right because they always put an exclamation

01:02:37.090 --> 01:02:40.690
after Yahoo! Yahoo! News reported on December

01:02:40.690 --> 01:02:45.190
3rd. Stores with a colonel statue will dress

01:02:45.190 --> 01:02:50.030
him in Christmas attire. Said Akuma Kanawara,

01:02:50.150 --> 01:02:53.929
a KFC managing marketer, fans will indulge in

01:02:53.929 --> 01:02:58.420
special party barrels. with chicken, side dishes,

01:02:58.619 --> 01:03:04.460
and ice cream. Well, not only do they love KFC

01:03:04.460 --> 01:03:07.159
and Popeyes in particular, the two biggest ones

01:03:07.159 --> 01:03:10.719
over there, but they also love it for Christmas.

01:03:11.099 --> 01:03:13.300
It's like a preferred Christmas dinner. Everybody

01:03:13.300 --> 01:03:21.480
blocks there. Let's see. I think we spoke about

01:03:21.480 --> 01:03:23.619
this a little bit. I think you talked a little

01:03:23.619 --> 01:03:25.360
bit about this, but we can go into it a little

01:03:25.360 --> 01:03:31.239
bit more. Hey, you know what? I'll go into some

01:03:31.239 --> 01:03:34.179
other stories. I've got a bunch of little ones.

01:03:34.400 --> 01:03:36.260
Nothing too awful. Tease him with that one for

01:03:36.260 --> 01:03:40.239
later. Yeah, we'll do it later. When law enforcement

01:03:40.239 --> 01:03:43.139
questioned Calvin Johnson, 36, about a stolen

01:03:43.139 --> 01:03:47.619
BMW, he just crashed in Ormond Beach. Florida,

01:03:47.679 --> 01:03:50.579
of course. They got an earful, the smoking gun

01:03:50.579 --> 01:03:53.519
reported. Investigators say Johnson took the

01:03:53.519 --> 01:03:57.719
car on December 8th and drove it at speeds exceeding

01:03:57.719 --> 01:04:00.679
100 mile an hour before the crash. Wow. Yeah.

01:04:01.360 --> 01:04:03.880
But Johnson had a different explanation. He said

01:04:03.880 --> 01:04:07.639
he was teleported into the vehicle. I like this.

01:04:07.760 --> 01:04:10.460
I do too. And told officers, you saved me from

01:04:10.460 --> 01:04:14.599
the aliens. Didn't work. He was charged with

01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:17.380
grand theft auto and driving on a suspended license.

01:04:17.880 --> 01:04:21.139
That was clever though. That was. That was clever.

01:04:22.639 --> 01:04:25.219
Found a little bit different one. Officers stopped

01:04:25.219 --> 01:04:27.719
a speeding car on December 5th in Door County,

01:04:28.079 --> 01:04:32.440
Wisconsin. Dork County, D -O -R. What a weird

01:04:32.440 --> 01:04:37.559
place. But anyhow. W -B -A -Y TV reported the

01:04:37.559 --> 01:04:39.900
sheriff's office said the car was also missing

01:04:39.900 --> 01:04:42.480
a front headlight on the driver's side. But no

01:04:42.480 --> 01:04:48.559
worries. Oh, wait, there's more. A handheld flashlight

01:04:48.559 --> 01:04:51.599
had been jerry -rigged in the spot. And they

01:04:51.599 --> 01:04:53.780
said jerry -rigged here. I understand that's

01:04:53.780 --> 01:04:56.900
a bad word now, too. Because they speak about

01:04:56.900 --> 01:05:02.809
Germans, jerrys. Oh, yeah. I have heard occasionally

01:05:02.809 --> 01:05:06.130
it's jury rigged, J -U -R -Y. Okay. But that

01:05:06.130 --> 01:05:07.949
doesn't make any sense because when you jury,

01:05:08.050 --> 01:05:13.289
it's rigged things. A jury can be rigged, but

01:05:13.289 --> 01:05:15.510
the jury doesn't rig things. Yeah, that's true.

01:05:16.130 --> 01:05:19.050
That was probably mispronounced. Jerry rigged.

01:05:19.050 --> 01:05:22.320
Yeah. Which is the nicer term for what it used

01:05:22.320 --> 01:05:25.719
to be. Yeah. Which I heard as a kid with the

01:05:25.719 --> 01:05:30.519
N -word. I heard it all the time. In the spot

01:05:30.519 --> 01:05:33.760
where a headlight should have been, a flashlight

01:05:33.760 --> 01:05:36.360
is not a safe or legal replacement for proper

01:05:36.360 --> 01:05:41.039
headlights, authority said. And I say, duh. But

01:05:41.039 --> 01:05:47.260
that's just me. And how about this one? A clumsy

01:05:47.260 --> 01:05:50.539
20 -year -old burglar bundled his own effort

01:05:50.539 --> 01:05:52.820
to break into a home in Spanaway, Washington

01:05:52.820 --> 01:05:57.099
on December 4th. Cairo TV reported homeowners

01:05:57.099 --> 01:05:59.840
called police because someone was banging on

01:05:59.840 --> 01:06:02.340
their front door trying to get in. The intruder

01:06:02.340 --> 01:06:05.280
then moved to the back of the... Thank you. The

01:06:05.280 --> 01:06:08.880
intruder moved to the back of the house and tried

01:06:08.880 --> 01:06:11.500
to break a window as he attempted to escape.

01:06:12.039 --> 01:06:14.300
Deputy said he tried to crawl under the fence

01:06:14.300 --> 01:06:17.059
but got his foot stuck. Law enforcement used

01:06:17.059 --> 01:06:19.800
bolt cutters to free his foot before arresting

01:06:19.800 --> 01:06:23.420
him on charges of residential burglary. Funny.

01:06:23.679 --> 01:06:26.500
Yeah. You're trying to run away and your foot's

01:06:26.500 --> 01:06:29.300
all jammed. Your foot's in there. Hey, he could

01:06:29.300 --> 01:06:32.460
have gnawed his own foot off to get away. Yeah,

01:06:32.460 --> 01:06:35.280
yeah, like animals do. It's like, well, I guess

01:06:35.280 --> 01:06:37.019
it's got to go because I'm not waiting around

01:06:37.019 --> 01:06:40.530
to see what these fuckers do. Actually, I've

01:06:40.530 --> 01:06:43.969
got the skinny on animals chewing their legs

01:06:43.969 --> 01:06:46.630
to get out of traps. They pretty much don't do

01:06:46.630 --> 01:06:51.530
that. Because, number one, it hurts like hell.

01:06:52.530 --> 01:06:55.630
And there isn't an animal out there who's got

01:06:55.630 --> 01:06:58.389
the discipline and the will to chew their own

01:06:58.389 --> 01:07:00.750
leg off and endure that enormous amount of pain.

01:07:00.969 --> 01:07:04.630
That's true. What usually happens is the animal...

01:07:05.240 --> 01:07:08.420
is caught in the trap and dies, and then something

01:07:08.420 --> 01:07:11.219
comes along and that animal chews its leg off

01:07:11.219 --> 01:07:13.000
so they can drag the carcass away and eat it.

01:07:13.159 --> 01:07:18.480
Ah, that makes sense. Yep. Or sometimes the animal

01:07:18.480 --> 01:07:20.420
isn't dead yet and somebody comes along and kills

01:07:20.420 --> 01:07:23.380
it and gnaws its leg off so they can drag it.

01:07:23.519 --> 01:07:27.159
But yeah, the leg gets gnawed off after the animal's

01:07:27.159 --> 01:07:29.119
already dead. It's being gnawed off by somebody

01:07:29.119 --> 01:07:31.119
else. That makes a hell of a lot more sense.

01:07:31.380 --> 01:07:34.260
But it's fun for the animal rights organizations

01:07:34.260 --> 01:07:37.019
to pretend as if it's the animal chewing their

01:07:37.019 --> 01:07:38.960
leg off to get out of the trap. Because that

01:07:38.960 --> 01:07:40.960
makes it, oh, this poor animal is suffering.

01:07:41.079 --> 01:07:45.059
No. Some other animal came along and killed it.

01:07:45.280 --> 01:07:47.039
But animal rights organizations... Organizations

01:07:47.039 --> 01:07:48.980
don't like to talk about animals killing other

01:07:48.980 --> 01:07:50.500
animals. They pretend it doesn't even matter.

01:07:50.900 --> 01:07:53.099
Yep, and if anyone's wondering, the foot is not

01:07:53.099 --> 01:07:55.199
a delicacy to other animals. They don't really

01:07:55.199 --> 01:07:57.260
care about it. There's not much meat there. Yeah.

01:07:57.579 --> 01:08:00.039
So you're not going to have another animal come

01:08:00.039 --> 01:08:02.099
along and go, hey, look, this delicious foot

01:08:02.099 --> 01:08:08.179
was left. Nope. Yeah, they just left the front.

01:08:08.199 --> 01:08:12.860
Let's go. That came up a lot when I was teaching

01:08:12.860 --> 01:08:15.380
hunter ed classes for the Missouri Department

01:08:15.380 --> 01:08:17.960
of Conservation. We had a conservation agent

01:08:17.960 --> 01:08:20.060
come in, and he worked with a lot of trappers,

01:08:20.140 --> 01:08:22.359
and he said, yeah, this is what happens. The

01:08:22.359 --> 01:08:24.420
animal's either already dead or on its way to

01:08:24.420 --> 01:08:27.319
dying, and something else comes along and does

01:08:27.319 --> 01:08:29.260
the chewing off of the limb. I could totally

01:08:29.260 --> 01:08:31.460
see that. Yeah, it makes so much more sense.

01:08:31.739 --> 01:08:37.060
Yeah, absolutely. All right. All right. I've

01:08:37.060 --> 01:08:39.600
got another story here. Sure. All right. How

01:08:39.600 --> 01:08:42.180
long have we got, by the way? An hour and five.

01:08:42.439 --> 01:08:46.020
Oh, okay, good. Austin Dirks, a hiker at Arches

01:08:46.020 --> 01:08:49.779
National Park in Utah, or Arches, I think it's

01:08:49.779 --> 01:08:55.460
Arches, A -R -C -H -E -S. Arches? Archies? Archie?

01:08:55.500 --> 01:08:58.260
I don't know. I think, if I heard it correctly,

01:08:58.439 --> 01:09:01.600
Archies. But anyhow, Austin Dirks, a hiker in

01:09:01.600 --> 01:09:03.939
Archies National Park in Utah, found himself

01:09:03.939 --> 01:09:06.979
in a sitcom -worthy predicament on December 7th.

01:09:07.020 --> 01:09:11.420
CBS News reported it. As he explored a small

01:09:11.420 --> 01:09:13.779
canyon on the second day of his backpacking trip,

01:09:14.000 --> 01:09:18.380
Dirks sank up to his thigh in quicksand. Ooh.

01:09:18.560 --> 01:09:22.260
Yeah. Fortunately, he had brought along an emergency

01:09:22.260 --> 01:09:26.420
satellite beacon, which was picked up by Grand

01:09:26.420 --> 01:09:29.819
County emergency responders. The team positioned

01:09:29.819 --> 01:09:32.319
a ladder and boards near him and slowly worked

01:09:32.319 --> 01:09:35.359
his leg loose. Once he was free of the quicksand,

01:09:35.420 --> 01:09:37.520
Dirk said he was able to hike out on his own.

01:09:37.979 --> 01:09:41.220
and offer a few insights about the mythical substance.

01:09:41.659 --> 01:09:44.479
Because remember as a kid, we're always like

01:09:44.479 --> 01:09:46.579
scared of quicksand. What if you fall in it?

01:09:46.640 --> 01:09:49.800
Oh yeah, you're dead. It's the Hollywood version.

01:09:50.000 --> 01:09:52.079
Yeah, it's the Hollywood version. Most people

01:09:52.079 --> 01:09:55.619
won't see past their waist in quicksand. That's

01:09:55.619 --> 01:09:57.640
what it says. It's about how deep it is. Yep,

01:09:57.640 --> 01:10:00.300
and also it's slow enough to where you can usually

01:10:00.300 --> 01:10:03.220
get help. So the people that die in quicksand

01:10:03.220 --> 01:10:06.909
are probably pretty much none. But like you said,

01:10:06.989 --> 01:10:09.050
it's the Hollywood version of it. Yeah, yeah.

01:10:09.130 --> 01:10:16.930
All right. Let's see here. I have a list of memorable

01:10:16.930 --> 01:10:20.649
classic rock concerts. Ooh, dig that. Okay. And

01:10:20.649 --> 01:10:24.850
this is voted in by a fan poll by Rolling Stone

01:10:24.850 --> 01:10:30.289
magazine. All right, so... Jimi Hendrix of Woodstock,

01:10:30.489 --> 01:10:34.399
1969, was voted the number one... most memorable

01:10:34.399 --> 01:10:37.039
concert. Wow, I guess it would be. A legendary

01:10:37.039 --> 01:10:39.979
feedback -laden, yeah, true, and politically

01:10:39.979 --> 01:10:42.680
charged rendition of the Star Spangled Banner.

01:10:42.779 --> 01:10:46.590
Yeah. That's true. Yep. Think of all the people

01:10:46.590 --> 01:10:49.170
that do that now, and all of the events that

01:10:49.170 --> 01:10:51.649
start out like that, either with Jimi Hendrix's

01:10:51.649 --> 01:10:54.409
version of it or somebody live playing it. I

01:10:54.409 --> 01:10:57.289
see Ted Nugent do that. Yeah, yeah. And they

01:10:57.289 --> 01:11:00.170
deviate from it and do all this cool shit, add

01:11:00.170 --> 01:11:02.510
the distortion and stuff. It's really become

01:11:02.510 --> 01:11:05.829
a thing of its own. Yeah. And Jimi Hendrix started

01:11:05.829 --> 01:11:11.579
that, of course. So, he cemented his innovative

01:11:11.579 --> 01:11:14.760
genius featuring sonic effects, mimicking bombs

01:11:14.760 --> 01:11:17.180
and rockets amidst a chaotic festival. And that's

01:11:17.180 --> 01:11:20.279
true. He did do all these sounds and stuff. I

01:11:20.279 --> 01:11:27.430
mean, it was a combination of him... rewiring

01:11:27.430 --> 01:11:29.449
and doing different things with electronics and

01:11:29.449 --> 01:11:32.449
also having the newest electronics around. He

01:11:32.449 --> 01:11:34.930
was in good with some people or something, but

01:11:34.930 --> 01:11:36.989
he got the newest stuff that people didn't even

01:11:36.989 --> 01:11:39.869
know was out here. Yeah, I've read articles about

01:11:39.869 --> 01:11:42.909
that. The companies that were making effects

01:11:42.909 --> 01:11:46.470
pedals would go to him and say, here, try this

01:11:46.470 --> 01:11:48.810
out, try out our new thing. Oh, that's why. I

01:11:48.810 --> 01:11:51.310
wasn't sure why. Okay, that's why. There were

01:11:51.310 --> 01:11:54.229
some music stores in London where you always

01:11:54.229 --> 01:11:56.109
go to try to get the newest stuff. He worked

01:11:56.109 --> 01:11:58.569
directly with Marshall on a lot of occasions.

01:12:00.329 --> 01:12:03.569
The man, Seymour Duncan, who founded the pickup

01:12:03.569 --> 01:12:06.789
company, Seymour Duncan. Yeah. He was, you know,

01:12:06.789 --> 01:12:08.989
back then he was just hand wiring pickups for

01:12:08.989 --> 01:12:11.090
people. And he was constantly wiring up sets

01:12:11.090 --> 01:12:13.609
for Jimi Hendrix and saying, here, try these

01:12:13.609 --> 01:12:15.510
out. Here, try these out. And Seymour Duncan

01:12:15.510 --> 01:12:19.750
was very inventive. Yeah. Yeah, he was. Come

01:12:19.750 --> 01:12:22.989
up with a lot of innovative things. The stuff

01:12:22.989 --> 01:12:24.689
that he was coming out with Seymour Duncan was

01:12:24.689 --> 01:12:30.529
good. It was new electronics. Also, Hendrix did

01:12:30.529 --> 01:12:32.970
do a lot of different stuff with his amplifiers

01:12:32.970 --> 01:12:37.510
and his guitars. What would you call him? Messing

01:12:37.510 --> 01:12:40.590
with it? Tweaking it? Yeah, he had some modified.

01:12:41.930 --> 01:12:45.789
He would turn up some controls that people usually

01:12:45.789 --> 01:12:48.119
wouldn't turn up all the way. Yeah. To get odd

01:12:48.119 --> 01:12:50.359
and different sounds. He played a lot with feedback.

01:12:50.760 --> 01:12:54.619
Yeah. So he was just radically different from

01:12:54.619 --> 01:12:57.039
most people at the time. There was another thing

01:12:57.039 --> 01:13:00.159
that he did that we'll never get enough credit,

01:13:00.220 --> 01:13:05.000
Jimi Hendrix, is how he played feedback. He played

01:13:05.000 --> 01:13:07.960
feedback as an instrument. Yes. And he did it

01:13:07.960 --> 01:13:13.079
very well. Yeah, I remember Nugent. Did that

01:13:13.079 --> 01:13:15.020
a lot because he had the Gibson Birdland guitars,

01:13:15.199 --> 01:13:17.880
which are true hollow bodies. And somebody handed

01:13:17.880 --> 01:13:19.920
him a Strat and said, hey, try this out. And

01:13:19.920 --> 01:13:21.960
he's playing it and he's like, hey, yeah, I like

01:13:21.960 --> 01:13:23.539
it. But then he tried to get the feedback and

01:13:23.539 --> 01:13:25.020
it just wasn't there because it wasn't a hollow

01:13:25.020 --> 01:13:27.500
body. And he said, I wound up getting so frustrated

01:13:27.500 --> 01:13:30.899
I threw the whole guitar through a wall. And

01:13:30.899 --> 01:13:32.779
it wound up in the next room and said, no, I

01:13:32.779 --> 01:13:36.300
can't play that, man. Give me the feedback. But

01:13:36.300 --> 01:13:38.439
he has since graduated to solid body guitars.

01:13:38.560 --> 01:13:44.210
He made the switch. Yeah, he's not quite, I don't

01:13:44.210 --> 01:13:52.909
know. So, what would you say? I think Hendrix

01:13:52.909 --> 01:13:55.970
was truly being revolutionary and visionary.

01:13:57.050 --> 01:13:59.590
Nugent was just trying to get wild, loud sounds

01:13:59.590 --> 01:14:02.810
to impress the crowd. Yeah, yep. Okay, so, all

01:14:02.810 --> 01:14:05.630
right. The next one, number two, is the Beatles

01:14:05.630 --> 01:14:09.460
at Shea Stadium. Oh, yeah. 1965, yeah, that was...

01:14:09.460 --> 01:14:15.420
If you didn't see that, you remember it as being

01:14:15.420 --> 01:14:18.020
one of the concerts or saw parts of it. Yeah,

01:14:18.020 --> 01:14:20.779
yeah. And if you've ever heard it, the screaming

01:14:20.779 --> 01:14:22.960
is louder than the music. Yeah, nobody could

01:14:22.960 --> 01:14:25.399
hear that. Which is the reason that the Beatles

01:14:25.399 --> 01:14:28.079
quit playing live is because people would just

01:14:28.079 --> 01:14:29.680
scream constantly and they couldn't even hear

01:14:29.680 --> 01:14:31.619
themselves on stage. They're like, screw this,

01:14:31.640 --> 01:14:34.340
it's not worth it. Yeah, and also the Beatles

01:14:34.340 --> 01:14:36.659
were always just kind of like one second away

01:14:36.659 --> 01:14:38.539
from doing their own thing. Anyhow, they didn't

01:14:38.539 --> 01:14:41.779
really care. And they didn't really seem to care

01:14:41.779 --> 01:14:45.439
for each other, especially John and Paul. And

01:14:45.439 --> 01:14:51.680
then you had Yoko to it. Yeah. So, okay, so overwhelmed

01:14:51.680 --> 01:14:54.539
by the 55 ,000 screaming fans showcasing the

01:14:54.539 --> 01:14:56.500
height of Beatlemania and paving the way for

01:14:56.500 --> 01:14:59.420
future stadium tours. But like you said, they

01:14:59.420 --> 01:15:01.699
really didn't want to play anymore because no

01:15:01.699 --> 01:15:07.220
one could hear it. That was 1965? Yeah. Here's

01:15:07.220 --> 01:15:10.199
a comparison. The show Gilligan's Island was

01:15:10.199 --> 01:15:15.479
in its third season. Wow. It started in 63. I

01:15:15.479 --> 01:15:17.640
had no idea it started that early. I didn't either.

01:15:17.840 --> 01:15:20.159
Yeah, it was on for like eight years. Think of

01:15:20.159 --> 01:15:23.180
that. That's just barely past the 1950s. Yeah.

01:15:24.850 --> 01:15:27.489
Gilligan's Island hit the air while JFK was still

01:15:27.489 --> 01:15:31.010
alive. Hadn't been assassinated yet. It took

01:15:31.010 --> 01:15:34.069
another three years, I guess. No, he just died

01:15:34.069 --> 01:15:36.949
in 1963. So they hit the air in September, and

01:15:36.949 --> 01:15:40.510
then that November, JFK was assassinated. Of

01:15:40.510 --> 01:15:42.949
course, a show like Gilligan's Island doesn't

01:15:42.949 --> 01:15:45.189
pay any attention to current events. No, no,

01:15:45.189 --> 01:15:51.140
no. The Who, number three, The Who at Leeds University.

01:15:51.159 --> 01:15:55.899
Oh yeah, Leeds. An incredibly raw, energetic,

01:15:56.119 --> 01:15:58.939
and tight performance captured on their definitive

01:15:58.939 --> 01:16:02.880
live album, showcasing their power and musicianship.

01:16:03.239 --> 01:16:06.220
Yeah, it would have been tough to capture because

01:16:06.220 --> 01:16:10.520
Keith Moon was so erratic. Some nights he played

01:16:10.520 --> 01:16:14.140
amazing. and other nights he only played amazing

01:16:14.140 --> 01:16:17.119
on some songs, and other nights it was just another

01:16:17.119 --> 01:16:19.800
train wreck. There was the famous one where he

01:16:19.800 --> 01:16:21.640
collapsed drunk behind his drums, and they had

01:16:21.640 --> 01:16:23.180
to get somebody from the audience to come up

01:16:23.180 --> 01:16:24.819
and play the whole set. And that guy played really

01:16:24.819 --> 01:16:27.060
well. Yeah, he was actually an actual drummer,

01:16:27.140 --> 01:16:30.779
and he could play. He sounded better than Keith

01:16:30.779 --> 01:16:33.460
Noon would have that night. Yeah, he didn't vomit

01:16:33.460 --> 01:16:35.739
on the drums, which is a plus. And the problem

01:16:35.739 --> 01:16:38.500
is, is Keith Noon was such a good drummer. Yeah.

01:16:38.500 --> 01:16:43.640
I mean, he really was. It got a little crazy.

01:16:44.279 --> 01:16:47.300
Yeah, it got to the point where his overplaying

01:16:47.300 --> 01:16:50.239
and excessive overplaying became the gimmick.

01:16:51.420 --> 01:16:53.000
Musicianship went out the window. It was like

01:16:53.000 --> 01:16:56.819
the fans want to hear Keith playing his brains

01:16:56.819 --> 01:16:58.960
out on every single song, even if it's a slow

01:16:58.960 --> 01:17:01.020
ballad, so it's what he's going to do. To me,

01:17:01.039 --> 01:17:03.779
I didn't like it because it was like... you want

01:17:03.779 --> 01:17:06.500
to hear the music or not, you know, so anyhow,

01:17:06.699 --> 01:17:09.380
but it worked out. Even Pete Townsend was quoted

01:17:09.380 --> 01:17:11.520
once as saying, I wish occasionally Keith Moon

01:17:11.520 --> 01:17:17.840
would just play a simple fucking rhythm. As he

01:17:17.840 --> 01:17:20.659
looked at pictures of children. Yes. Allegedly.

01:17:24.039 --> 01:17:26.909
But at least he called it. He called the British

01:17:26.909 --> 01:17:30.170
authorities first. Yeah. Nice guy. Nice guy.

01:17:30.250 --> 01:17:34.750
All right. Janis Joplin with Big Brother and

01:17:34.750 --> 01:17:39.069
Holding Company, 1968. I'm not aware of this

01:17:39.069 --> 01:17:42.409
one. No. Although she did way better with her

01:17:42.409 --> 01:17:46.130
original band, The Holding Company, than she

01:17:46.130 --> 01:17:49.520
did with whatever the... put -together band they

01:17:49.520 --> 01:17:51.760
used for... They didn't have a name. I don't

01:17:51.760 --> 01:17:52.979
think the band after that happened. I think there

01:17:52.979 --> 01:17:54.760
was some sort of name they put on it, but it

01:17:54.760 --> 01:17:57.600
never caught on. Okay. Well, yeah, whoever they

01:17:57.600 --> 01:17:59.319
were. Yeah, but on the album it was just Janis

01:17:59.319 --> 01:18:02.140
Joplin. Because the first album it said Big Brother

01:18:02.140 --> 01:18:04.119
and the Holding Company, and Janis Joplin's name

01:18:04.119 --> 01:18:06.439
was hard to find. Yeah, that's right. Because

01:18:06.439 --> 01:18:09.479
she was just a member of the band. Yeah. It's

01:18:09.479 --> 01:18:11.640
kind of weird. It's kind of like when Rod Stewart

01:18:11.640 --> 01:18:14.970
was in the Jeff Beck group. Yeah. Or the faces.

01:18:15.250 --> 01:18:17.409
Yeah, and the faces, yeah. People don't realize

01:18:17.409 --> 01:18:19.789
that, but that was the original name when Rod

01:18:19.789 --> 01:18:22.569
Stewart became ultra popular. Then Jeff Beck

01:18:22.569 --> 01:18:26.329
started playing for Rod Stewart. And when Sammy

01:18:26.329 --> 01:18:29.010
Hagar was the singer for Montrose, it wasn't

01:18:29.010 --> 01:18:31.810
Sammy Hagar and Montrose, it was Montrose. Yeah.

01:18:33.770 --> 01:18:35.909
Then he went on his own. Then he got to go, hey,

01:18:35.989 --> 01:18:39.050
I'm Sammy Hangar from Montrose. I think Montrose

01:18:39.050 --> 01:18:42.050
himself played for Edgar Winter. Ronnie Montrose

01:18:42.050 --> 01:18:46.250
did. Yeah, he did. Who we got to see. We didn't

01:18:46.250 --> 01:18:49.729
see Ronnie Montrose. Was that called Seven Degrees

01:18:49.729 --> 01:18:51.350
of Kevin Bacon where you make the connection

01:18:51.350 --> 01:18:58.000
like that? It is. Very much so. All righty, so

01:18:58.000 --> 01:19:01.359
a chaotic tour defined by tour -ending fights

01:19:01.359 --> 01:19:05.579
and raw, powerful performances capturing Joplin

01:19:05.579 --> 01:19:08.899
at her peak. Yeah. Okay, and then the fights

01:19:08.899 --> 01:19:11.479
that you're talking about is really why the band

01:19:11.479 --> 01:19:14.520
behind her is gone because of all the infighting

01:19:14.520 --> 01:19:18.840
and stuff going on. Yeah. Yep. And so on the

01:19:18.840 --> 01:19:22.520
theatrical over -the -top shows, so all these,

01:19:22.579 --> 01:19:24.399
that's one, two, three, and four collectively.

01:19:24.960 --> 01:19:27.920
Number five. they have in a slightly different

01:19:27.920 --> 01:19:30.199
category, and this is theatrical and over -the

01:19:30.199 --> 01:19:33.060
-top shows, like I said. Yeah. Alice Cooper.

01:19:33.279 --> 01:19:35.699
I was hoping this would be there. Billion Dollar

01:19:35.699 --> 01:19:40.350
Babies Tour. Yeah. 1973. Famous for its gruesome,

01:19:40.350 --> 01:19:42.670
shocking stage show featuring guillotines, blood,

01:19:42.770 --> 01:19:45.550
and elaborate horror -themed props, setting new

01:19:45.550 --> 01:19:48.390
standards for rock spectacle. Kiss of Budokan,

01:19:48.510 --> 01:19:51.369
1977, while later their elaborate makeup, pyro,

01:19:51.449 --> 01:19:54.630
and platform took a lot from this show. I love

01:19:54.630 --> 01:19:57.649
the way they said that. But Kiss was the second

01:19:57.649 --> 01:20:01.010
one, was number two on this, so that the ad was

01:20:01.010 --> 01:20:04.189
pulled over the top. But I like the way they

01:20:04.189 --> 01:20:07.369
parlayed it out of Million Dollar Babies, which

01:20:07.369 --> 01:20:11.090
they did. And I mean, and even Kiss says that

01:20:11.090 --> 01:20:13.130
when they did interviews with him. They said,

01:20:13.170 --> 01:20:14.989
yeah, you know, they watched Alice Cooper. The

01:20:14.989 --> 01:20:17.270
only difference is when Alice Cooper talks about

01:20:17.270 --> 01:20:20.949
it, he said four people do it just as good. Kiss

01:20:20.949 --> 01:20:25.029
said four people can do it better. Yeah. Which

01:20:25.029 --> 01:20:28.710
I don't agree with. There was a slight thematic

01:20:28.710 --> 01:20:31.109
difference. Alice always played his villain character.

01:20:32.370 --> 01:20:36.789
as a loser and an outsider who would get what's

01:20:36.789 --> 01:20:38.989
coming to him in the end. He always got punished.

01:20:39.050 --> 01:20:40.569
That was what the guillotine and the electric

01:20:40.569 --> 01:20:44.369
chair was. Yeah, it was punishment for the bad

01:20:44.369 --> 01:20:46.270
guy. With Kiss, they just reveled in the bad

01:20:46.270 --> 01:20:49.829
guy. It's like the bad guy wins. So it was a

01:20:49.829 --> 01:20:55.210
different... Yeah. Yeah, no, that's... On the

01:20:55.210 --> 01:20:58.149
Billion Dollar Babies tour, on one of the early

01:20:58.149 --> 01:21:01.670
shows, somebody brought in those leopard -spotted

01:21:01.670 --> 01:21:05.869
platform thigh -high boots and threw them up

01:21:05.869 --> 01:21:08.590
on stage, and then Alice wore them for the rest

01:21:08.590 --> 01:21:11.430
of the tour. And then when he was done with the

01:21:11.430 --> 01:21:13.989
tour, eventually he donated them to the Rock

01:21:13.989 --> 01:21:16.829
Hall of Fame. Oh, wow. But that was a fan who

01:21:16.829 --> 01:21:19.229
brought them to the show and threw them up on

01:21:19.229 --> 01:21:22.380
stage. After that, people started looking at

01:21:22.380 --> 01:21:24.579
those big outrageous platform boots and thinking,

01:21:24.579 --> 01:21:26.539
that's pretty cool, we ought to do that. That

01:21:26.539 --> 01:21:31.020
is. And a lot of bands did it. Wow. Alice isn't

01:21:31.020 --> 01:21:33.060
very tall, but those boots made them over 16.

01:21:33.359 --> 01:21:36.399
Oh, yeah. Those boots were the shit. Yeah, they

01:21:36.399 --> 01:21:38.920
were. There is something interesting going on.

01:21:38.979 --> 01:21:40.939
I did not have time this morning to print it

01:21:40.939 --> 01:21:45.479
out or nothing, but Garth Brooks. There is a

01:21:45.479 --> 01:21:48.260
big thing about people saying he has serial killer

01:21:48.260 --> 01:21:51.180
tendencies by the way he talks and his lack of

01:21:51.180 --> 01:21:54.539
emotion. I've heard that before. And he has that

01:21:54.539 --> 01:21:58.279
alter ego, what is it, Russell Gaines? Yes. Yeah,

01:21:58.420 --> 01:22:02.100
it's starting to look creepy. Yeah. Well, people

01:22:02.100 --> 01:22:04.600
are questioning him about that whole thing. Yeah,

01:22:04.600 --> 01:22:08.460
I hope it's just a promotional or publicity thing

01:22:08.460 --> 01:22:10.220
that they've worked in over the years, but it

01:22:10.220 --> 01:22:12.500
might be real. It might be that Garth Brooks

01:22:12.500 --> 01:22:16.750
really is. I'd kill her. I don't know. It's possible.

01:22:17.149 --> 01:22:21.149
It's possible. So I didn't have time to look

01:22:21.149 --> 01:22:23.050
into that, but I'm going to try to have a report

01:22:23.050 --> 01:22:27.590
on the next music groups. It's like that Bob

01:22:27.590 --> 01:22:30.590
Ross, The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross. There's

01:22:30.590 --> 01:22:32.949
always been a theory that every painting he paints

01:22:32.949 --> 01:22:36.989
on the show is a place where he's buried a body,

01:22:37.090 --> 01:22:39.470
and that's his way of gloating and showing people.

01:22:39.670 --> 01:22:41.909
Like, if you can find this place in real life,

01:22:41.989 --> 01:22:44.649
I buried a body here. To me, that's fucking brilliant.

01:22:44.729 --> 01:22:47.689
Isn't that awesome? It is. I hope it's not true,

01:22:47.810 --> 01:22:51.510
but it's fun to pretend it is. It is. And just

01:22:51.510 --> 01:22:53.430
the way Bob Ross looks, you can see him trying

01:22:53.430 --> 01:22:56.850
to put a baseball bat up someone's ass. Yes.

01:22:57.970 --> 01:23:03.689
All right. I want to go into this now. We went

01:23:03.689 --> 01:23:06.909
into this a little bit before on the last podcast

01:23:06.909 --> 01:23:10.159
that we've done. All right. There's a man in

01:23:10.159 --> 01:23:12.699
Indiana suing another man because his actions

01:23:12.699 --> 01:23:16.520
led to severe head injuries. And I don't know,

01:23:16.560 --> 01:23:19.000
did we go over this a whole lot or not? Not a

01:23:19.000 --> 01:23:23.359
whole lot. Okay. South Bend, Indiana, Roger Trippel

01:23:23.359 --> 01:23:27.560
is using his former neighbor and friend as suing

01:23:27.560 --> 01:23:29.579
his... former neighbor and friend for over a

01:23:29.579 --> 01:23:32.119
million dollars in damages and all medical bills

01:23:32.119 --> 01:23:34.819
paid for when his neighbor allegedly blasted

01:23:34.819 --> 01:23:37.520
the car horn when he was installing a car battery.

01:23:38.920 --> 01:23:41.560
Jim Sanders is being sued after his neighbor

01:23:41.560 --> 01:23:43.500
and friend was helping him install a battery

01:23:43.500 --> 01:23:47.869
in his Ford Escape. Ford Escape. Yeah, you can't

01:23:47.869 --> 01:23:51.829
trust him. So, when he blasted a horn, scaring

01:23:51.829 --> 01:23:54.949
his neighbor, Mr. Triple, enough to where he

01:23:54.949 --> 01:24:00.050
jumped. And, hang on. Geez. Yeah, we got a group

01:24:00.050 --> 01:24:02.569
that's decided to come by and be extra noisy.

01:24:02.829 --> 01:24:04.390
Yeah, yeah. Just because they want to be. They

01:24:04.390 --> 01:24:07.310
look like dickheads to me. Yeah, yeah. We get

01:24:07.310 --> 01:24:09.170
that occasionally. It's like, you know, background

01:24:09.170 --> 01:24:12.060
noise is great, but... When people come by and

01:24:12.060 --> 01:24:14.760
deliberately try to get extra noisy to screw

01:24:14.760 --> 01:24:15.000
up our podcast. Deliberately do this to go pick

01:24:15.000 --> 01:24:18.680
heads like they obviously are, yeah. So, anyhow,

01:24:19.760 --> 01:24:23.079
let's see. So, let me do this right here and

01:24:23.079 --> 01:24:27.720
maybe this will help, okay? So, he needed immediate

01:24:27.720 --> 01:24:30.380
medical attention and an ambulance was called.

01:24:32.359 --> 01:24:35.300
He received large lacerations on his head, and

01:24:35.300 --> 01:24:37.560
part of it is visible on the top of his forehead.

01:24:37.859 --> 01:24:41.000
Wow. So, okay, we talked about this. We said,

01:24:41.100 --> 01:24:43.119
you know what? Yeah, the guy probably has a right

01:24:43.119 --> 01:24:46.260
to sue me. I would think so, yeah. How much do

01:24:46.260 --> 01:24:53.180
you think that he should receive? Somewhere under

01:24:53.180 --> 01:24:57.720
$200 ,000. Yeah. I would think. I think you're

01:24:57.720 --> 01:25:02.479
right. All right. All right, you got anything

01:25:02.479 --> 01:25:04.880
else? I've got a couple things I thought of while

01:25:04.880 --> 01:25:08.279
you were talking. Okay, cool. A little short

01:25:08.279 --> 01:25:10.279
bit I heard about Paul McCartney the other day.

01:25:10.699 --> 01:25:13.020
You familiar with this song, The Long and Winding

01:25:13.020 --> 01:25:17.800
Road? Yeah. Paul wrote that without all the big

01:25:17.800 --> 01:25:20.859
orchestration in it. Really? And he didn't want

01:25:20.859 --> 01:25:23.699
the big orchestration in it. But the producer

01:25:23.699 --> 01:25:25.760
said, yep, yep, we're putting all these strings

01:25:25.760 --> 01:25:28.380
in and that's the way it is. And he said that's

01:25:28.380 --> 01:25:30.720
the moment he decided he was done with the Beatles.

01:25:32.010 --> 01:25:34.350
Really? Yeah, when he heard the final version

01:25:34.350 --> 01:25:36.649
of Long and Winding Road and all those strings,

01:25:36.850 --> 01:25:39.689
he's like, yeah, I'm done. What a weird way to

01:25:39.689 --> 01:25:42.630
go. I would have thought it was anything but

01:25:42.630 --> 01:25:44.590
that. Yeah, but apparently that was the last

01:25:44.590 --> 01:25:46.789
straw. He's like, I wrote this music. I want

01:25:46.789 --> 01:25:49.130
it to be produced the way I envisioned it, the

01:25:49.130 --> 01:25:51.109
way I wrote it. I don't want to have to pass

01:25:51.109 --> 01:25:53.710
it through somebody else and hope they do it

01:25:53.710 --> 01:25:57.220
my way. I'm leaving the band. My own music is

01:25:57.220 --> 01:26:00.420
me exactly the way I want it to be. All the tension

01:26:00.420 --> 01:26:03.180
and the fights going on, that was it. Yeah, it

01:26:03.180 --> 01:26:07.829
came down to the music. Makes sense. You know

01:26:07.829 --> 01:26:09.869
what? And he had a completely different style.

01:26:10.350 --> 01:26:13.250
Yeah. And, I mean, he obviously had other influences

01:26:13.250 --> 01:26:15.409
and other things that he wanted to do. Yeah.

01:26:15.569 --> 01:26:17.909
So he did good. Plus he wanted to get his wife

01:26:17.909 --> 01:26:20.989
in the band. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And there

01:26:20.989 --> 01:26:22.609
would have been Linda, not the one that shits

01:26:22.609 --> 01:26:25.939
the bed or whatever. Yeah, yeah. No, that was

01:26:25.939 --> 01:26:29.180
Jenny Debs. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The second wife

01:26:29.180 --> 01:26:35.899
was one that was all about landmines. And she

01:26:35.899 --> 01:26:38.000
was always flying around the world talking about

01:26:38.000 --> 01:26:40.119
we need to clean up landmines and do this and

01:26:40.119 --> 01:26:43.100
do that. And she wound up kind of treating Paul

01:26:43.100 --> 01:26:46.180
like a piece of shit. Which one was the one with

01:26:46.180 --> 01:26:47.840
no leg that used to piss in the company? Yeah,

01:26:47.960 --> 01:26:51.119
that's her. That's her, yeah. She was significantly

01:26:51.119 --> 01:26:53.579
younger. And she felt, hey, I'm just going to

01:26:53.579 --> 01:26:56.420
milk this old guy for his money. Yep. Didn't

01:26:56.420 --> 01:27:00.039
work out so well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You ever

01:27:00.039 --> 01:27:02.600
heard about... Oh, I'm sorry. One more thing

01:27:02.600 --> 01:27:07.600
is... Does anybody remember the Peavey Festival

01:27:07.600 --> 01:27:11.739
series of amplifiers? Yeah. It was a big, giant

01:27:11.739 --> 01:27:15.010
-ass... solid state amp head that would sit on

01:27:15.010 --> 01:27:16.949
top of big giant ass speakers. And you could

01:27:16.949 --> 01:27:18.909
use them for guitar, you could use them for bass,

01:27:19.010 --> 01:27:21.050
you could use them as a PA. They were just massive,

01:27:21.310 --> 01:27:24.829
powerful amplifiers. Peavey's bringing them back.

01:27:25.590 --> 01:27:28.029
So the festival series is going to be available

01:27:28.029 --> 01:27:32.109
again. And the product rep for Peavey described

01:27:32.109 --> 01:27:35.510
what they do as a torture test. And he said the

01:27:35.510 --> 01:27:41.670
hardest sound for an amplifier to reproduce is

01:27:41.670 --> 01:27:44.229
popping and slapping the bass. Like, think of

01:27:44.229 --> 01:27:49.770
the Seinfeld intro. So that is the hardest thing

01:27:49.770 --> 01:27:52.029
in the world for a power amp to do because the

01:27:52.029 --> 01:27:55.810
sound comes on from zero to 100 % all at once

01:27:55.810 --> 01:27:58.569
and then it shuts off just as fast. And it does

01:27:58.569 --> 01:28:01.640
it over and over quickly. He said, that will

01:28:01.640 --> 01:28:04.140
destroy a power amp if it's not well designed.

01:28:04.520 --> 01:28:07.420
Really? So the torture test they have is they

01:28:07.420 --> 01:28:10.619
have a tape of somebody popping and slapping

01:28:10.619 --> 01:28:13.760
the bass, and they run it at full volume for

01:28:13.760 --> 01:28:16.760
about three hours and see if the design can take

01:28:16.760 --> 01:28:19.779
it. Wow. And he said, normally if your design's

01:28:19.779 --> 01:28:21.079
going to fail, it's going to be in the first

01:28:21.079 --> 01:28:25.939
15 minutes because it'll expose any flaw in your

01:28:25.939 --> 01:28:29.329
power amp. But if your power amp can make it

01:28:29.329 --> 01:28:31.770
past the first half hour or so, you're probably

01:28:31.770 --> 01:28:33.770
pretty good. But see, we don't burn it for three

01:28:33.770 --> 01:28:37.069
hours, just to make sure. Wow. Yeah, that's a

01:28:37.069 --> 01:28:39.649
hell of a torture test. Yeah, that is. That reminded

01:28:39.649 --> 01:28:42.050
me of Eddie Van Halen's torture test when he

01:28:42.050 --> 01:28:44.470
worked at Peavey. Yeah. He would take their new

01:28:44.470 --> 01:28:49.539
amplifier, turn everything up to 10. and then

01:28:49.539 --> 01:28:52.000
lean the guitar up against the speaker cabinet.

01:28:52.159 --> 01:28:55.520
So it was just shrieking with feedback. How did

01:28:55.520 --> 01:28:58.859
he stand it? He would leave. He'd set it up and

01:28:58.859 --> 01:29:01.659
leave and come back the next day. He would give

01:29:01.659 --> 01:29:05.079
at least 12 hours of constant, torturous feedback.

01:29:05.680 --> 01:29:07.760
And he said, if I showed up and it's still doing

01:29:07.760 --> 01:29:10.840
it, then it's a good amp. But if I show up and

01:29:10.840 --> 01:29:14.399
it's dead, then I don't want it. That's pretty

01:29:14.399 --> 01:29:19.939
extreme. Props to him for figuring that out,

01:29:19.979 --> 01:29:22.420
though. I mean, really, wow. But, you know, Peavey

01:29:22.420 --> 01:29:25.739
has kind of built a reputation on having amps

01:29:25.739 --> 01:29:29.039
that just last for freaking ever. They do. I've

01:29:29.039 --> 01:29:32.399
got a 1988 Peavey Bandit, and there's not a damn

01:29:32.399 --> 01:29:34.840
thing wrong with it. It's just perfect. Oh, no,

01:29:34.899 --> 01:29:37.340
I've always been a fan of Peavey. They're a good,

01:29:37.399 --> 01:29:39.739
solid amp. I mean, they make good equipment.

01:29:40.340 --> 01:29:45.060
Yeah. They've got solid state. I've got... One

01:29:45.060 --> 01:29:48.600
2 -band, I've got a Peavey Classic Mini 20, and

01:29:48.600 --> 01:29:51.340
then I've got the Peavey Bandit from 88, and

01:29:51.340 --> 01:29:56.899
I bought a Studio Pro from sometime in the 90s

01:29:56.899 --> 01:30:00.140
with the trans -tube technology they put in it.

01:30:00.479 --> 01:30:03.340
And they all sound just awesome. Just really,

01:30:03.479 --> 01:30:07.800
really good. They say the big problem with Peavey

01:30:07.800 --> 01:30:11.420
is that since it's not very expensive, a lot

01:30:11.420 --> 01:30:14.399
of people can afford it. and not everybody knows

01:30:14.399 --> 01:30:16.960
how to set it up and how to run it. And he said

01:30:16.960 --> 01:30:19.960
that nine times out of ten, if the PB system

01:30:19.960 --> 01:30:23.119
sounds like shit, it's because it's not adjusted

01:30:23.119 --> 01:30:27.739
properly. And I've seen examples of this over

01:30:27.739 --> 01:30:29.619
and over where they've shown, you know, here's

01:30:29.619 --> 01:30:31.720
how you would typically hear it, and it's like,

01:30:31.779 --> 01:30:33.819
yeah, I've heard that at concerts. He said, and

01:30:33.819 --> 01:30:35.479
here's how to fix it. They go and just tweak

01:30:35.479 --> 01:30:37.560
a few things, and it's just a night and day.

01:30:37.739 --> 01:30:40.659
It's just gorgeous. It's like, poor Peavey. They

01:30:40.659 --> 01:30:43.100
always had good sound. It's just nobody knew

01:30:43.100 --> 01:30:48.859
how to use them properly. Oh, wow. That's cool.

01:30:49.500 --> 01:30:53.479
Okay. I've always liked Peavey myself, though.

01:30:53.560 --> 01:30:56.340
I've always enjoyed them. I had a Peavey amp

01:30:56.340 --> 01:30:58.899
in the past that worked well. Davey, my friend,

01:30:58.979 --> 01:31:01.859
has had a couple of them. Leonard Skinner used

01:31:01.859 --> 01:31:06.340
Peavey MACE amplifiers. M -A -C -E. They were

01:31:06.340 --> 01:31:11.760
high -volume, high -watt, I think 2x12s, solid

01:31:11.760 --> 01:31:15.119
state, I think. But Lynyrd Skynyrd just loved

01:31:15.119 --> 01:31:18.779
them. If you've ever listened to Lynyrd Skynyrd,

01:31:18.779 --> 01:31:21.220
you've heard Peavey amplifiers being played.

01:31:21.340 --> 01:31:22.880
And it sounds gorgeous, doesn't it? It sounds

01:31:22.880 --> 01:31:25.159
great. It sounds just fine. They used them in

01:31:25.159 --> 01:31:29.060
recording. They used them live. And fortunately,

01:31:29.340 --> 01:31:34.960
a few of them survived the plane crash. That's

01:31:34.960 --> 01:31:37.060
a good build -in. Yeah, yeah. And they've got

01:31:37.060 --> 01:31:39.119
a bunch of them on display. A bunch of stuff

01:31:39.119 --> 01:31:41.220
that survived the plane crash and then was part

01:31:41.220 --> 01:31:44.659
of Gary Rossington's personal gear, they've got

01:31:44.659 --> 01:31:46.779
in a big display now that Peavey helped work

01:31:46.779 --> 01:31:48.720
up. Because so much of it's Peavey. And I think,

01:31:48.760 --> 01:31:51.640
is Rossington still alive or not? I think he

01:31:51.640 --> 01:31:53.819
passed. He passed, yeah, probably. Probably about

01:31:53.819 --> 01:31:56.380
eight, ten years ago. Yeah, it was Washington

01:31:56.380 --> 01:31:59.380
and Collins that formed their own separate band.

01:31:59.699 --> 01:32:03.520
And then the cousins of Leonard Skinner formed

01:32:03.520 --> 01:32:06.300
Leonard Skinner again. Yeah, some other Van Zandt

01:32:06.300 --> 01:32:09.039
cousins. Yeah, yeah, the Van Zandt. And it's

01:32:09.039 --> 01:32:11.340
interesting because Washington and Collins were

01:32:11.340 --> 01:32:14.079
members, and they went and formed another group,

01:32:14.100 --> 01:32:17.539
and then relatives went back and reformed Skinner.

01:32:18.610 --> 01:32:21.550
A lot of people don't know that. Yeah. And let's

01:32:21.550 --> 01:32:24.810
see, which Van Zandt was first? Was it Ronnie?

01:32:25.109 --> 01:32:27.149
Ronnie was the original. And then Johnny was

01:32:27.149 --> 01:32:29.229
the second. Yeah. Okay, that's what I thought.

01:32:29.289 --> 01:32:31.250
Ronnie and then Johnny, his cousin. And then

01:32:31.250 --> 01:32:33.770
there's Miami Steve Van Zandt, who worked a lot

01:32:33.770 --> 01:32:38.090
with Bruce Springsteen, who has a radio station

01:32:38.090 --> 01:32:42.470
on Sirius XM. Yeah, he also is an actor. Yeah.

01:32:42.930 --> 01:32:46.090
His most famous was The Sopranos, but he also

01:32:46.090 --> 01:32:51.159
did... Another one, I can't remember what it

01:32:51.159 --> 01:32:53.359
was. I remember that, too. You pretty much recognize

01:32:53.359 --> 01:32:55.819
him because he always wears a do -rag or some

01:32:55.819 --> 01:32:58.640
sort of bandana or head covering thing. I can't

01:32:58.640 --> 01:33:00.640
think of the second show he was on. But I know

01:33:00.640 --> 01:33:02.600
what you're talking about. And there was other

01:33:02.600 --> 01:33:04.800
ones that he was on, but those were his two most

01:33:04.800 --> 01:33:07.779
memorable performances. And the one that he played

01:33:07.779 --> 01:33:10.000
the best on was probably The Sopranos. It was

01:33:10.000 --> 01:33:12.880
kind of like the underboss, the assistant guy.

01:33:15.420 --> 01:33:17.699
I can't remember what name he was. Silvio or

01:33:17.699 --> 01:33:21.460
something like that. Silvio or something. Anyhow,

01:33:21.619 --> 01:33:25.020
the whole point is he's a really good actor as

01:33:25.020 --> 01:33:27.539
well. Yeah. Multi -talented guy, of course. He's

01:33:27.539 --> 01:33:32.220
got various revenue streams. Yes. Yep. Yeah,

01:33:32.260 --> 01:33:36.189
so. And we have no revenue streams. No, no. But

01:33:36.189 --> 01:33:38.229
after you listen to this, you probably know this.

01:33:38.369 --> 01:33:40.689
Yeah, we have a few urine streams in our revenue

01:33:40.689 --> 01:33:43.489
stream. As soon as we said that, they looked

01:33:43.489 --> 01:33:47.229
at it at their Bluetooth and said, no shit. No

01:33:47.229 --> 01:33:49.649
revenue stream. How did that happen, knuckleheads?

01:33:50.949 --> 01:33:54.289
How do you think that happened? Did anyone call

01:33:54.289 --> 01:33:56.409
us on our phone number today? No, that's what

01:33:56.409 --> 01:33:59.539
I'm checking, damn it. Nothing so far. We'll

01:33:59.539 --> 01:34:03.260
have to have a few shill calls. Set people up

01:34:03.260 --> 01:34:05.579
to call and pretend that they're calling in on

01:34:05.579 --> 01:34:07.340
their own. Oh, yeah, yeah. I probably shouldn't

01:34:07.340 --> 01:34:09.100
have mentioned that during the podcast. Yeah,

01:34:11.520 --> 01:34:18.000
radio shows did that in the past. Yeah. Nope,

01:34:18.300 --> 01:34:21.140
nope, nothing. Not even a comment like, hey,

01:34:21.159 --> 01:34:25.039
I'll call. Oh, gosh. They don't like us. Nope,

01:34:25.039 --> 01:34:26.960
they don't. They're all haters. We're used to

01:34:26.960 --> 01:34:29.329
it. Birmingham, England likes us. That's all

01:34:29.329 --> 01:34:33.149
we give a show about. That's important. So, all

01:34:33.149 --> 01:34:35.789
right. That's pretty much all I got. We're up

01:34:35.789 --> 01:34:38.350
over an hour and a half. All right. Okay. Everybody,

01:34:38.590 --> 01:34:40.310
hey, thank you guys for listening. We really

01:34:40.310 --> 01:34:42.789
appreciate it. The numbers are showing it. We

01:34:42.789 --> 01:34:44.890
really appreciate your listenership. Tell people

01:34:44.890 --> 01:34:45.949
and go fuck yourself.
