We were having some off-mic podcasting and we had to shut it down because it's the good
shit that our listeners want to hear.
That's right.
Well, this is Dude's Like Us.
This is the first, the second half of August 20th.
Oh my God.
It's flying by, but dude, it's still fucking hot.
Oh, yeah.
What's August?
It is.
I know.
I can't forget every August.
I have a rampage about this, Sean.
It's the 105.
Fuck, Paul.
You're so stupid.
Are you stupid?
You remember those hearing aids?
What I get upset about?
I can't help it, guys.
I'm kidn' here.
I don't get upset.
It just makes me mad.
It makes me mad.
That people, every summer, they keep bitching, well, it's so fucking hot.
It's never been this hot before.
Ever.
Every year it's just fucking hot.
This caused the dinosaurs to die.
Jeff has an almanac.
He's a back pocket almanac.
He whips it out.
Check this out, dude.
It's a 1980 one.
It was 113.
Every year it's like this.
I know, but it still sucks.
Thank you, Mr. Producer, for being here on our second half of the podcast for August
20th, 2024.
Dude's like a samshon.
I'm Paul.
And I'm Jeff.
We've got two things to talk about.
And he's an angry almanac.
Yeah, you are.
Take out your almanac.
Make a little song.
Make fun of those people around the world.
He's an angry pharma.
It's a new little diamond thing.
I'm gonna rap.
He's an angry pharma.
He's an angry pharma with a binda binda mama.
Bent over mama.
He's an under pharma.
I'm not a shaka con rapper, man.
Shaka con.
We're gonna say something, Jeff.
I'll catch you up on the phone.
He's making an announcement.
We can't wait.
Yeah.
Gender reveal.
Gender reveal for H.
Gender reveal.
Paul's told me.
Oh, really?
Deflect.
No.
My youngest son just got engaged.
Oh.
Whoa.
That's right.
Yes.
Super exciting.
Isn't that crazy?
There should be some applause right now.
You were subtle about that, too.
You sent a little picture of your son.
No, no, of his fiance.
I guess now a fiance, yes.
Showing her hand all sparkly with her bright, shiny teeth.
Nice, shiny teeth and rings.
They are over in...
Teeth.
Well, I mean, she was all smiley with her teeth and rings.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She was like...
Hey, man, they've been together since high school.
So, first of all, it's a fucking miracle they're still together.
No, it's beautiful.
Absolutely.
It's a beautiful miracle.
Made it through college.
She graduated the year early.
Has a full-time job.
She's a smart cookie.
Yeah.
She is very smart.
And driven.
Very driven, yes.
They were a power couple.
They're going places.
And they went over to...
They're actually in Lisbon, Portugal right now.
Lisbon.
There we go.
Lisbon, the capital of Portugal.
They're in Lisbon.
So, they flew over there and then they flew to Barcelona, Spain.
Are they having an engagement honeymoon?
I don't know what that means.
Is that a thing?
I'm sure it is what these days.
Do you have a honeymoon?
What did you just say?
An engagement honeymoon.
I don't know.
The hell is that?
I don't know.
When you were now...
I guess you can kind of think of it like that.
If you want to fit in a box, I guess that would fit in a box.
I mean, they had a great deal going out there.
I don't know.
They spent under 500 bucks a ticket to fly over there.
They are like these...
Not bargain shoppers, but they're smart.
They are.
They're smart world travelers, man.
And they...
You've got to give it to them.
Everybody thinks it's going to be $5,000 minimum.
No.
You've got to be smart and you can do that.
But anyway, they flew...
How come we're not smart?
Well, that's how they got over there.
Probably as $5,000.
One of the airlines was having a special and the timing just worked and they got outstanding
prices for round trip tickets over there.
It was under 500 bucks a piece.
Beautiful.
What about room and board?
I don't know where they're staying.
They figured all that out.
They're sleeping on the beach.
Yeah.
They're just...
Just sleeping in caves.
Sleeping on the beach.
In caves.
So they had...
My cousin did that.
I should tell that story later.
He planned on doing this last Thursday.
So they flew out Thursday morning and he had all...
All it planned up.
He had plenty of time, but then all of his flights were delayed by hours.
Oh, yeah.
So he had a boat ride at the sunset.
He had a photographer lined up the whole nine yards.
Oh, shit.
He missed all of it.
And he was stressing out.
He finally called me.
I was like, Stephen, have you been in touch with the boat guy and the photographer?
He's like, yes.
I was like...
He's like, the photographer said they could do it Saturday.
I was like, tell you what, move it to Saturday.
Oh, yeah.
So you don't have to stress about this.
Yeah.
You don't want to cut it close.
He's like, we landed 755.
We could probably get to the boat by 830.
I was like, you're not making it through customs and all that shit.
No way.
And to where you need to go in half an hour.
No way.
When the sun sets at 849.
I was like, you're not going to make it.
Oh, the sun sets it.
He knows what time the sun sets.
He did the editing down in the middle.
Talk about trying to set this up perfectly.
So I was like, just push it to Saturday.
So he called me back or he texted me in like five minutes.
So he goes like, all right, it's pushed to Saturday.
So Sean and I were out at...
Where were we?
Home Depot?
Yeah, we were doing a something without Paul.
That's right.
I think you were at Michael's looking at floral arrangements together.
Well, you were gallivanting down at Caled Station.
Yeah, there you go.
Oh, gallivanting.
Yes.
Yeah, yeah.
You were just...
Changing diapers and stuff like that.
Yes.
Well, it's teased around.
What?
Was something wrong with your wife?
No, elder care.
Oh, oh.
What the hell is wrong with you?
I don't know.
It's a fetish, Paul's a fetish.
Yeah, you know, he has a big pest fire too.
He's like, oh, I just shit, Paul.
I go boo boo, I go boo boo.
You get to change it.
And I was like, oh, I can love this, honey.
It's all up her back.
Oh.
Did you get the power washer on?
What?
What the...
It's all up her back?
What?
Your kids never did that?
It's like it's not bad enough to make the joke that she's shit in a diaper that she
wants me to change.
It has to be all up her back.
All her kids have done it.
Walk me through where your brain goes.
Well, because the only experience with a diaper I have is with infants and they have blowouts
and it goes just...
It's everywhere.
Everywhere.
And I don't understand how that happens.
I know.
And then when you see it, like you're just like, oh my God.
You're trying to assess and you see that the onesie that they're wearing is like a little
wet and you're like, oh no, oh no.
It's come out of the diaper.
Dude, we need to have some stories about those days if we even remember them.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
God, it was a nightmare.
I'll tell you, if you want to indulge me, I will share with you something.
It's going to mortify one of my sons, but we'll have to get over it.
Here we go.
Is it potentially our Mr. Producer?
This is occurred...
No, it's not.
This has occurred in Irving, Texas when we lived in our...
I guess Austin was born back then, but Preston had woke up and made some noise and I could
hear his ass and the baby crib, which is crazy to even fathom that concern.
He was nine at the time?
I should have saved 16.
Preston was dead.
I need to be changed.
Preston was one of those kids that...
I got shit running up my back.
He was able to get out of his crib at any time he wanted to.
I mean, Houdini.
He was like, Houdini baby.
Three weeks old, he was like, I'm out.
Well, long story short, I'm making some eggs, dad.
He had taken a shit in the morning.
I guess woke up and kind of just purged and it was everywhere for like 15 minutes.
But it smells so sweet though when they're baby.
No, it does not.
It was horrible.
And I remember I walked in there and first of all, you could smell it.
All right?
It's not...
Of course.
It's very tart.
Once you get out like real fruit and that breast milk...
I was gonna say, what a major difference between breastfed poops.
And food.
Real food poops.
Yeah.
It was nasty.
Oh, it was horrific.
And when you eat too much, which Preston always ate too much, it makes you have a little bit
of a diarrhea this year.
So that's essentially what had happened.
But I remember I took a picture of it and I kind of wish I didn't, but I did.
What?
Why would you do that?
I took a picture of him in the crib with the hole just blow out all over the place.
It was the shrapnel everywhere.
Had you heard it?
Even on him, it was on his face.
It was everywhere.
It looked like a fucking ship bomb went off in the middle of the crib.
So first of all, I take a picture of it and I'm bellyache in the whole time to get my
wife out of bed, you know?
And after I was just like, fuck it, man.
I have a choice.
She's gonna either have to clean him in or I'm gonna have to clean the bed.
So I was thinking, you know what?
Right.
I'd rather clean him.
It is division of labor, right?
Yeah.
Baby or crib?
I got you.
I was like, I'm picking him up.
So I picked his ass up, turned on the water right away, trying to get the hot water there.
And you're like, you got the crib.
He suspended.
No, I didn't say anything.
I just, you know, we look back that we just, we know our roles.
I know.
Shit happens, you know?
Well, I get up, but it was just one of those experiences.
Cause you know, you talk about the blowouts and stuff.
Oh my God.
It was everywhere.
And the thing that was creepy, the most he has shit all over his face, you know, and
he was oblivious to what was going on.
He was just like, hey.
Well, he felt good.
He was like, daddy, I shit everywhere.
Yeah, he did.
He felt good.
I know, I know when Brandon was, would you keep your shit on your face?
And Austin looked around the corner and he was like, what an idiot.
He's like, actually never going to be me.
I know when Brandon was probably a week, two weeks old, he was on the breast milk and
you know, that's when they don't sleep quite through the night and we'd wake up.
We had a routine and a wake up at two o'clock in the morning, babies crying.
I would get up and change.
Yes.
Julie would lay there and then once I would change them, I'd hand them to Julie and she
would breastfeed.
Right.
Then I'd kind of zonk out and she'd put them down and fall asleep.
But anyway, I was changing him and he was butt naked and he was in his little changing
table.
All of a sudden this shit shoots out of his ass.
Oh my God.
Like a cannonball.
It was, but it was breast milk.
It wasn't solid.
Oh, so it was like a jumping water, but it came out of his ass and it went about four
feet across the room.
Oh, gross.
Over the table, across the doorway and onto the carpet.
Oh, is this where the term throw came from?
He had good throw.
You didn't catch it before it hit the carpet?
No, I just, I just watched it.
I was like, I couldn't believe.
So the pressure must have been awful.
He just would boom when this thing shot out of his ass and I was just like, oh my God.
Welcome to.
Welcome to parenthood.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
So that was, and we've, we had the blowouts too.
We had everything we had got.
We got peed on.
He only peed when as soon as I took the diaper off.
Oh yeah.
Tell me.
And then you cover it up.
You're like, dammit man.
Come on.
Yeah.
Oh man.
We all of it.
I remember one time I got pink eye and I went down and I went down to the dump.
I went to the doctor and he goes, he goes, hold on, hold on.
You got pink eyes.
Is this related to the ass or what?
I think so.
Someone farted on your pillow.
Well, I think, I think what happened is there was such a mess and maybe I had, he goes,
did you touch your face while you were changing one of your kids?
Yeah.
And I was like, possibly, you know, I could have scratched or something like that.
He goes, yeah, I see this a lot where parents don't think.
So you didn't share that you and Julie into weird shit?
Well, I usually shove their poops in my eyeball.
Oh, see, yeah.
I was just talking about bedroom stuff.
Oh, yeah.
Some people are into that.
No, you're not into that.
That didn't cause your pink eye.
People shitting on me.
No.
God, no.
Oh my God.
Well, that's disgusting.
Yeah.
So anyway, now one of them is engaged.
That's great.
And I think he's the first one of all the kids.
Absolutely.
I do not have neither of my boys are engaged, although they've been thinking about it, talking
about it, you know, that kind of thing, planning for it.
Yeah.
So he dropped the hammer.
He did.
He dropped the hammer.
I'm looking forward to it.
I'm hoping that wherever the destination wedding is going to be, I'm hoping I'm going
to attend.
Yeah.
I don't know if my wife will, but yeah, it'll be somewhere.
I don't know.
They've talked to a few different places.
I'm sure it changes over the very exciting over the time.
We're all like, this is a new, a new phase in our lives.
It is.
I miss Randy too.
I know he doesn't listen to the podcast or maybe he does.
He may.
Yeah.
We'll have to go back on Randy.
How you doing?
Miss you.
The little fart bottom.
There you go.
Fart bottom.
Yeah.
He is a fart bottom.
You know, that makes me think about our, when we proposed to our wives, I know when
I did it.
Yeah.
I know when I proposed to Julie, I was working in the hotels at the time.
I had to wake up super early, like 435 o'clock and I wore a suit tie and whole nine yards
to tie.
So I woke up and she was still asleep.
Your phone.
We were living.
Yeah.
Was it my phone?
Reg, the high tops and she was still asleep.
We're living together before we got married.
Oh my God.
I know.
And so I got up and I, and I had, and I had gotten her, her parents had a fan.
Family heirloom, a ring.
So I got that from her dad.
Oh, super cool.
Um, so he said, he said, he was okay with you proposing to her, his daughter.
I asked for her hand.
Yes.
He said yes.
He did.
Actually he was going to give me shit that her mom cut him off before he'd give me shit.
Because he's a mom dude.
You had a freaking punch to him.
So anyway, look, all man, I'm taking your daughter.
Wow.
I come for your daughter without your permission.
So no, no.
It went well.
Well, juice.
Anyway, Julie knew I did this because I'm the dumb ass who I actually bought her a ring
from some jeweler and I left the fucking street on the bed.
You blew it.
So she, I hit the ring, but I left the fucking bag on my bed and the receipt.
So she saw it cliche idiocracy.
I was stupid.
So I had to return the ring.
I had to go, I need to return this.
She said no.
Um, I didn't say that, but that's why what they felt.
Um, so anyway, so I got, I got this.
It's a very old ring from like, uh, I think 1902 or something like that.
Um, and, uh, so, but she knew I did this.
So I was like, I'm not going to ask anytime soon because she's expecting it.
There you go.
So I waited probably six months, seven months.
All right.
So I, I tried to grade back control.
So I woke up early one morning and I had planned the night before.
So I bought a spool of thread.
So I, and we were in the apartment at the time.
So I had this thread and I had it all through the house or the apartment all the way, probably
a couple hundred feet of it.
And then I, on one end, I tied the ring and the other end, when she was sleeping, I tied
it to her finger and then that woke her up.
So when she woke up, she, she pulled it.
She's like, I'm not into this shit, Jeff.
Right.
And she was butt naked.
And you're, and you're, I have to take a shit.
I have to go to the bathroom.
It doesn't give me long enough to go to the bathroom and you're hovering over her and
she'd got the string tied to her finger and she went up her back and know what was going
on.
So I've been my suit and she's butt naked and she's trying to follow the string and
she's getting frustrated.
She's trying to pull on it.
She couldn't cause it's all looped around all kinds of shit.
She finally got to the end and it was like five 30 in the morning.
And like I said, I was in my suit and I knelt down and she was staying on there.
Nice.
And asked her to marry me.
Something happened after that.
Not right then.
Okay.
Like two minutes later, about 30 seconds.
No, no, no.
I had to.
Well, that's cool.
That's memorable.
Yeah.
So it was good.
It was a good memory.
Yeah.
It's good to tease my boys as well and then say, yeah, your mom was naked when I proposed
her.
Perfect.
And you always want to say that.
Jeff, for the record, we didn't need to know that either.
Yes.
Yeah, we didn't.
Well, now you do.
Actually.
Yeah.
Mine, mine was, you know, mine was not quite as creative.
I had a business trip planned for San Francisco and I wanted to propose like, you know, overlooking
the Golden Gate Bridge, like the park on the other side, but the ring wasn't ready.
So we went to San Francisco, get this, we go to San Francisco and we're there and she's,
you know, we're looking at the San Francisco skyline and she's saying she's cold and I
was like, well, let me go back to the car and get my jacket, you know.
And she was, you know, and I brought the jacket back and because the ring wasn't ready.
I wanted to propose right then, right?
And then, you know, so that moment passes and then later I finally get the ring and
I set up, you know, the century tree at A&M.
I'm an Aggie, right?
So I set it up to where I put flowers on the bench underneath the century tree.
I had my brother line this whole thing up, right?
And I just put everything, flowers and stuff like that.
And she and I were just walking by the tree, right?
And I made sure we walked by the tree.
And she looked at the flowers and she was like, you know, hey, I was like, and she's
kind of, she's like, oh, that's weird.
I go, well, what are these flowers?
Read them.
Like there's a card in there, right?
And she read the card and as she's reading the card, I'm on my knee proposing, right?
Nude?
I'm nude.
Yeah, she's not nude.
She'd wear a suit and I'm fully nude, which is weird.
I don't know why she'd had a suit on.
It was kind of backwards.
And this isn't in the middle of the mall.
And no, this is under the century tree at A&M.
Oh, okay.
Anyway, anyway, you know what she says to me later?
I thought you were going to propose to me in San Francisco when we were overlooking the
lights of San Francisco at the Golden Gate Bridge.
I was like, the ring wasn't ready.
I would have done it right then.
She was like, I was so crushed.
I thought you were going to propose then.
I was like, well, here we are now.
Here's your dam ring.
Right.
I'm a grateful wench.
Right?
Anyway, all right, let's talk about some people who died lately.
We haven't.
Segway.
Yeah, that's perfect segway.
No, well, look, that was my fault because I was like, hey, man, oh my God, break the
little bit fast.
The, well, because we just had it.
There's all these deaths that are popping up left and right.
I mean, they're piling up on our list.
We had like the great white Russ.
What's his name?
The great white.
Oh, yeah.
The great white.
He was a very old either.
No, he's 10 years old in us.
Yeah.
He had, he had Louis body dementia.
That's so sad, which is 15.
He had probably had 15 boosters.
I really, really hope they make a big breakthrough.
I know they're spending a lot of money on it, but it seems like the only thing they're able
to do right now is tell you, hey, we've identified that if you have these symptoms, it's likely
that you're going to have dementia.
And I'm like, fuck, man, that doesn't help me.
Have you not fixing it?
Haven't they categorized the dementia and Alzheimer's into that diabetes three?
Was I full of shit or is that something?
I've heard that too.
I haven't seen anything official on that.
I have heard that too.
Well, we heard that from Sean and a couple of videos.
I don't know if I've seen that officially elsewhere.
Well, I mean, it's on a heap per that one.
He was like, check all the websites.
You know, he says every other, every country on the planet accepts it as diabetes type three,
Alzheimer's and dementia.
And we're the only country that does not.
So diabetes, as you mean, is a glucose problem?
Yeah.
So a blood sugar problem.
Yeah.
Or is it a cholesterol problem?
I think it's, I know diabetes is always blood sugar.
Well, yes.
Yes.
So it could be.
In addition to the blood, the blood sugar is cholesterol because the, the, the cholesterol
in the brain is the main thing.
This is all secondhand information.
Right.
Kind of together here.
So what I'm saying, it could be absolutely wrong.
And I don't mean, I think the term diabetes is what's thrown me off.
Yeah.
I don't think that's accurate.
Well, it's in my opinion.
It's a type three diabetes and it, you know, whatever, but the other type one and type
two are all glucose.
So type three, again, unless they say it is glucose related, the diet, the, it could
be something maybe glucose is the carrier of it or the, what gets the cholesterol there.
But what the bottom line with this diabetes type three issue or the Alzheimer's and dementia
is, is there's a saying that's directly related to the, the cholesterol and that there are
a lot of people out there that take cholesterol medicine.
And the argument is like lower to lower cholesterol.
And they're like, well, the argument is like, well, you know what, we, people didn't have
dementia to people didn't have Alzheimer's prior to 1979.
You know, or maybe they did.
We didn't know how to identify.
I'm sure they did.
Well, yeah, but we can't conclusively say they did or did not.
So you know, people could say, yeah, they're sure they did.
It doesn't matter.
The fact is, is that we can't conclusively say that, but we can't conclusively say that
they figured out how to lower cholesterol.
So Alzheimer's does, there's nowhere to be found before 1980.
But that's correct.
I don't, I don't know.
But yes, yeah, maybe it could very well be disease.
It could be very well caused by pharmaceutical drugs.
So that are supposedly helping us or is it a disease that was finally recognized when
they named it?
That could be too.
Well, I mean, look, I don't know.
Again, I'm not the authority on this, but what I'm trying to explain is what they're,
what they're proposing.
What they're proposing is that some of the cholesterol, the anti-cholesterol medicines
that we're taking are causing problems.
They're causing problems because our liver, because basically what those cholesterol pills
do is they shut down functions of your liver.
All right.
Well, the liver only produces 20% of your cholesterol.
The rest of it is done by another gland or some sort of another.
I've explained it in the past podcast.
It's the penis.
The penis is most likely.
The penis gland.
But look, it's so you're, you're basically you're hindering the function of your natural
liver, and that's horrible, and they're saying that as a product of that because your brain
is completely of cholesterol.
I was going to say cholesterol is so important to the human body.
It is.
And you know, so I have to say-
And they've demonized it.
They did.
They have.
And so it's, to me, it's problematic, you know, because I'm kind of like, you look, you
look at this trend and you see everything and you can't be kind of stupid to not think
that that's what's really going on.
But then again, I'm not a doctor.
Right.
And so they've got all these pharmaceuticals and you got all these doctors coming out and
saying, you know what?
I was pressured.
Oh yeah.
I was pressured to sell the product.
Oh, for sure.
Therefore I said A, B, and C.
And they're quoting all these bullshit fucking studies, right?
Oh, this does this, this does that.
Yeah.
And you know what?
And it comes to this certain point.
You're sponsored by the pharmaceuticals.
Exactly.
100%.
I don't know who to believe, but I tell you what, I get my gut feeling.
And I think my gut feeling says that I think that the cholesterol issue is bullshit because
when they, when the, when your arteries are clogged up and they say, then you die and
they do an autopsy and they cut open your, your arteries.
What is that filled with?
Are they filled with cholesterol?
It's plaque and calcium.
All right.
Does, uh, with the cholesterol carries that to your blood.
Yes.
Correct.
But it's not cholesterol.
But your cholesterol causes it.
Right.
We'll see.
That's, that's another thing that's argumentative.
Yeah.
I, I would, I would, it would not surprise me if it's not that conclusive.
But what they're, what they're saying or what they're suggesting is that the cholesterol
is what's clogging up your arteries.
No.
That is exactly what they're saying.
But we know for a fact that's not true.
It's the, it's a plaque.
Well, it's the calcium deposits.
So when we go to the cardiologists, they look for the plaque in the calcium deposits.
Correct.
They don't look for cholesterol deposits.
But they, but they're making the, the hypothesis that the cholesterol is what's making that
stuff.
They're saying when they, when they cut open the body and they're trying to figure it out,
they're not dying because of the cholesterol.
They're dying because they're, they got plaque.
Well, what causes that, what causes that, or that plaque?
Well, they need to figure that part out.
We don't think it's cholesterol.
They think it's cholesterol.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, look, I've got cholesterol issues and I had a calcium test and I scored fantastic.
Right.
So, you know what?
I call bullshit.
And there are people that, I don't even know if that's true.
And then there are people that have hereditary high cholesterol all the time.
Well, I go back to, I think 90% of her health is genetic.
Yeah.
That's what I'm saying.
Hereditary.
It's genetic.
Yeah.
But there's nothing genetic about dementia and Alzheimer.
That's not, how do we know this?
Well, how do we not know this?
I don't know.
Yeah.
It's, it's all argument.
If you can't say one without the other.
No, I'm not sure you can.
I think it's genetic.
I think health has a lot to do with genetics.
I agree with that.
More than, more than anything else.
But I'm also saying that just because you have high cholesterol, it doesn't mean that
it needs to be controlled.
Correct.
I mean, there are some people that naturally have super low cholesterol and that's because
their body functions.
I mean, we're a system.
Yes.
You know, your body just works.
So the people with very low cholesterol, do they have a higher chance of Alzheimer's?
Have they done that study?
Very low.
That's interesting.
You mean lower chance of Alzheimer's?
No, a higher chance because your brain functions on cholesterol.
It needs it to function.
Oh, I see.
Right.
So the people with very low cholesterol, do they have a higher chance of dementia?
That would be an interesting.
That would be a logical thing to research.
Now, there's a, that's the other thing, right?
Pharmaceuticals are trying to like one size fits all.
Yeah.
That's the part that doesn't, it doesn't.
There is nothing unique about any of it.
I mean, all unique actually, but that's why the genetics can play a huge role in this.
And I think you need to, you can't treat everybody homogenous and say you're all the
same.
That's right.
Yeah.
Hey, your blood work looks great.
Yes.
You have your cholesterol is slightly high.
You have some calcium deposits and plaque deposits.
We need to try to correct that.
Right.
Sean's case, you have high cholesterol.
You have none of that.
None of that.
We don't need to treat it.
Yeah, but we're going to put you on cholesterol medicine anyway.
Correct.
He doesn't need it probably because you don't have any of that buildup.
Right.
Whereas me, I had some buildup.
I have slightly high cholesterol and I had, I was starting to get some calcium deposits.
Right.
So he put me on a low dose.
Yeah.
I know it's maddening.
It is maddening.
The bottom line is it's maddening because you are supposed to trust your general surgeon.
Yeah, but the only thing they know is what they read and what they're told by farmers.
And you, yeah, and you hear all these, these different perspectives that, all right, well,
the oil industry created a new Rockefeller came out in the early 18th century and was
like, well, you know, we're going to redesign and reamp the whole medical industry so that
we're going to sell all these drugs and the pharmaceuticals to these people and we're
going to weed out all these holistic people that have been essentially in business for,
for the millennium.
Yeah, like Chinese or just all these natural stuff that works fantastic for you.
And Dr. Pepper.
Yeah.
And then you've got these people.
Dr. Pepper.
You've got like the dandelions in the backyard that treat high blood pressure and hypertension,
you know.
Why look at it this way?
Now, maybe the last decade it's changed, but our life expectancy has gone up dramatically
since our medicine has improved.
True.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, there's that.
Yeah.
I don't really argue against that.
Well, so medical advances have helped.
So maybe the cholesterol medicine has helped.
Well, so look, that, that, that, that's a fair argument, but I'm going to squash it with
this.
You know, I think that.
Should we start eating dandelions to see if that helps?
Yes, I do.
Yes.
I eat the grass in my backyard.
Tom, I'm crazy.
I got to pass with the dog shit though.
Great.
I'll pass on the dandelions.
I'm not, I'm not going to do that.
Yeah.
Until you try them.
But if you have that problem and you don't have a, you know, look, look, what I'm getting
at is that the U.S. has the greatest healthcare system in the world now.
It's fucked up because how much like between now and when like we're 70 or 65 or 70 where
you, your body is kind of like, all right, well, we need to make conscious choices on
the quality of life.
Yeah.
At this point, we're kind of like, all right, well, I need to probably take some cholesterol
because this is obviously fucking me up and I can't breathe.
But I would say that like between your, your, your thirties and your fifties, I don't think
that's a good time.
I think that's a normal time for your body to be real.
And I think I didn't start taking any kind of medicine until basically last year.
Well, I'm 55.
I don't want to certainly prolong the conversation, but I would argue that when you get to 60,
65, 70, it's baked.
Yeah, if you've been doing something wrong since the thirties, your thirties, you know,
like you've been smoking and got these guys that eat bacon every single morning, smoke
cigarettes every single day.
I mean, this stuff right here is so that coincides with your, your, it's genetics.
I agree with that.
There's some people that can do it.
Yeah.
The bottom line is, is that I think they're all full of shit and I don't trust them.
The bottom line is I don't fucking trust them.
I don't trust them.
I think they're doing the best with what they know.
I disagree.
I think that we know a lot more and I think that they're, they're keeping information
from us to sell their fucking medicines.
Yeah.
That's what I think.
The pharmaceuticals are definitely that way.
I think they're in bed with each other.
Yeah, they are.
This is me off is the, the expense of some of this stuff, especially my son has diabetes
type one and he requires insulin.
Right.
It's fucking expensive.
I tell you what, you know, and Biden Harris are like, yo, what?
Well, we lowered the price of insulin.
I don't know.
Oh, shit.
It's for the seniors.
If you want to hit 65, but I tell you what, right now it's expensive as shit that he needs
this life saving medicine every month, every day.
Yeah.
And it's expensive.
Yeah.
How much is it a month?
Well, this last thing was 450 bucks for maybe two months worth of shit.
Oh man.
That's expensive.
And, you know, that's, that's not manipulation, but that's, they have you by the balls.
Yeah.
And we, you know, he's going back to his endocrinologist going, is there anything less expensive?
Yeah.
I mean, now he's using the self-injecting pens.
So those are more money.
Right.
You could go to the vial with the beetle and save some money doing that.
He may have to go that because he's not working.
He's in school right now.
Right.
So I told him that I'm like, yeah, maybe you do that short term.
Maybe you have to do this, dude.
That's inconvenient.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't know.
It's, it's all fucked up again.
They all goes back to, I don't trust any of them.
I think they're, I think the, the health industry is fucked.
The insurance industry is fucked.
Our politicians are fucked.
I mean, this world is going to hell right now.
I think, I think big pharma, I think big pharma is fucked up.
I think there's a lot of great advancement in medical.
I just read an article about the new artificial heart and the huge step it took forward because
it's instead of it out made out of plastics and latexes and all that stuff.
Yeah.
It's made out of titanium now and it's using the same technology that these magnetic speed
trains use.
So it has, so it has met your magnetic has electromagnetic in there where nothing is touching.
But it's so, but it pumps.
So there's no friction.
There's no friction.
They said it lasts much longer and it could pump.
I think they said 12 liters an hour or whatever that they basically say.
It gets, it pumps as much as a healthy heart pumps.
What about the power required to replace a battery?
I don't know.
I didn't mention that.
It's a nine volt.
But they looked at this thing.
It looked like something you pull out of your car.
Kind of a thing.
You know, I'm thinking, God, wouldn't that be hurt?
Your heart is a pretty big organ.
Yeah.
So this thing looked like battery.
The, well, the battery is not inside.
Well this was sitting outside when they had all kinds of tubes hanging out.
Yeah, that's not.
So no, no, they put it inside, I believe.
They're hard left here, man, but you go, the part of the death conversation is, we're
all the same age.
I mean, Phil Donahue died recently at 88 years old.
And it tripped me out because hell, he was like, he came on before Oprah.
He was big.
He was the daytime.
Yeah.
He started the whole thing.
It was either watch soap operas or you watch Dr. Phil or they went into Dr. Phil.
I'm sorry, not Dr. Phil, but Phil Donahue.
It was him and Mike.
Donahue show.
Mike Douglas was another big one back then.
It was both of them.
But they were pioneers.
Yeah.
That and our senior hall.
Yeah.
Well, that was a nice time.
Yeah.
I'm kidding.
Oh, I was like, wow.
It was a joke.
So I think we, I think we, yeah, he was good.
I used to watch him.
There is one interview.
It's about two minutes long where Phil Donahue was interviewing Milton Friedman.
Is this on a show?
The Donahue show?
Who's Milton Friedman again?
Freedom is one of the greatest economists of our time.
Oh, well, let's see what he has to say.
Mr. Proser.
So he actually, I give Phil credit for this.
He actually listens.
Really?
When he answers.
Yeah.
Nice.
When you see around the globe, the maldistribution of wealth, the desperate plight of millions
of people in underdeveloped countries.
When you see so few halves and so many have nots, when you, when you see the greed and
the concentration of power with it, don't, aren't you ever, did you ever have a mind
and a moment of doubt about capitalism and whether greed is a good idea to run on?
Well, first of all, tell me, is there some society you know that doesn't run on greed?
You think Russia doesn't run on greed?
You think China doesn't run on greed?
What is greed?
Of course, none of us are greedy.
It's only the other fellow who's greedy.
This, the world runs on individuals pursuing their separate interests.
The great achievements of civilization have not come from government bureaus.
No.
Einstein didn't construct his theory under order from a, from a bureaucrat.
Henry Ford didn't revolutionize the automobile industry that way.
In the only cases in which the masses have escaped from the kind of grinding poverty
you're talking about, the only cases in recorded history or where they, where they have had
capitalism and largely free trade.
If you want to know where the masses are worse off, worst off, it's exactly in the
kinds of societies that depart from that.
So that the record of history is absolutely crystal clear, that there is no alternative
way so far discovered of improving the lot of the ordinary people that can hold a candle
to the productive activities that are unleashed by free enterprise systems.
It seems to reward not virtue as much as ability to manipulate the system.
And what does reward virtue?
You think the Communist commissar rewards virtue?
You think a Hitler rewards virtue?
You think, excuse me, if you'll pardon me, do you think American presidents reward virtue?
Do they choose their appointees on the basis of the virtue of the people appointed or on
the basis of their political clout?
There you go.
Is it really true that political self-interest is nobler somehow than economic self-interest?
You know, I think you're taking a lot of things for granted.
And just tell me, where in the world do you find these angels who are going to organize
society for us?
Well, I don't even trust you to do that.
That was good.
Brilliant.
Yeah.
Wow.
But I give Phil credit, he asks the questions.
And he listened.
And he said, well, I'm not going to get off in the middle.
Yeah, but yeah, but yeah, but that doesn't happen today.
No, they wouldn't allow him to spew all that.
So there was, well, unfortunately, Phil passed away.
And who else do we have?
Oh, we have a whole list of people.
Yeah, there's some.
So, so first off, we had Dick Simmons.
Who's Dick Simmons?
Richard Simmons.
Oh, Richard's just such a douche.
Yeah.
Big-haired, big-haired.
He was so flamboyant.
Yeah.
Big-haired.
He was an exercise enthusiast.
I used to watch that show.
He was on Richard Simmons.
Oh, not the show, but the commercials.
I remember the commercials.
No, we know.
We know.
Did he have a show?
Yeah.
Finally.
Dancing to the Oldies.
Shine.
Finally.
Yes, it's come out.
We have waited for this moment.
Jeff has been trying to get.
He's trying to work in a way to get his leg warmers to be more and more accepted.
And I'm sorry, Jeff.
I had those shorts.
I had those striped shorts he used to wear.
What about the leg warmers?
Did you have the little pop-ups?
Did he have leg warmers?
Yeah, I'm sure he did.
I don't remember that.
Olivia Newton-John did.
Oh, yeah.
Physical.
Oh, yeah.
Literal over there.
Richard Simmons.
He was big in the 70s and 80s.
Big health guy, I guess, right?
Yeah.
Well, hold on.
Richard Simmons was, uh, look, Richard Simmons claimed a fame.
Wow.
Excuse me.
It was a fact that he was fat as fuck.
At one time.
Oh, he was so fat.
And the doctor was just like, you're going to die.
And Richard became, um, infatuated with not dying.
Right.
And he was like, I promise you, I'm going to change.
He did.
He changed.
Oh, he changed everything.
He became, uh, he became the authority on getting healthier.
Yeah.
I mean, he was a very uplifting, motivational, inspirational.
He was over 300 pounds.
I would say closer to 400 pounds.
He was a big dude and he, uh, he turned his whole life around.
And what the hell?
He, he died this past year.
He was supposed to die fucking 40 years ago.
Yeah.
He got hit by a flying saw.
Right.
No shit.
And that was on our first half.
So we had Dick Simmons.
We also had Dr. Roost.
Dr. Roost.
No, she was saying, hello, Dr. Roost.
Hi, my name is Dr.
Today, we're talking about the sexual position of the female.
And we're, that's, she, you need to have more sex.
She had a show.
I don't remember exactly.
It was on the, the cable network.
She was like 96.
And she was sexually active and up to the day she was dying.
That's probably why she lived as long as she did.
Maybe that's something we should tell her.
Do you want me to live longer?
Activate my prostate is what you need to do.
That's our, that's our takeaway here, guys.
Let's go through every single one of these people and see how much sex they have.
What would you say about prostate?
You have to activate that.
You have to ejaculate many times.
Oh, I thought you said massage it.
I was like, how are you?
Yes, I'd activate your prostate.
God, why do I want to activate my prostate?
Any who use your prostate.
And then we had a, there was some guy,
what was the name of that singer?
Like every 15 minutes.
I lost on Jeopardy.
What is that guy?
I lost on Jeopardy.
That was Greg Kim.
Greg Kim just, I lost on Jeopardy.
Actually, what is that song?
It's actually not, I lost on Jeopardy.
No, that was the weird owl.
Our love, our loves in Jeopardy.
No, it's just called Jeopardy.
No, it's called our loves in Jeopardy.
I know the name of the song is Jeopardy, but that's the refrain.
No, it's just Jeopardy.
It's just Jeopardy.
Jeopardy, Jeopardy, baby.
What the hell?
No, it's our loves in Jeopardy, right?
That's what he says.
It's just they were Jeopardy.
I'm not what I'm saying.
Greg and Kim.
Yeah, it's right there.
Great King band, Jeopardy.
Play a little part of that.
Jesus, this is painful.
Right there.
There's always something.
I lost on Jeopardy.
There you go.
You know, it's just about the amount.
Without yank of it.
Yank of it.
He sang the parody of this, which was great, by the way.
He came over the box.
I know he had great parodies.
So this dude died.
Good song.
Yeah.
It is a good song.
What year is this?
I'm thinking early 80s, maybe.
Oh, definitely.
Are they a hit?
One hit wonder?
He had another hit.
1983.
Yeah, really.
Nice.
He had another hit.
Are you serious?
I thought this was a one hit wonder from him.
No, he had one other.
This was his biggest hit.
Oh, I never said he is a, you know, those one hit wonders.
They kind of trip me out because, you know, there are so many, like nowadays, there are
no one hit wonders.
Normally people come out with two.
Yeah.
I mean, or just an album.
They're two hit by two hit wonders.
So the song is from the 80s.
I mean, what are what other 80s one hit wonders are out there?
Uh, Kaja Goo Goo.
That's pretty.
I don't know.
All right.
So we, we, uh, we came up with a list of the top, uh, 20 or so different, um, one hit
wonders out there.
All right, but we're looking at the list.
So you, Austin, you're going to have to look at the list and start from 18 and come down
or up because we're, we're doing the top 18, right?
Yeah.
So start from the 18.
I got too many.
Well, not if we know he's got them all pulled up.
So if we're having a search for them now,
I, I, I, they were wrong.
Okay.
In mind last five minutes, talk about the bourbon.
Okay.
So that was he, they definitely, I thought, I think we're as a one hit wonder, but I
think we also came as though it was that though you said there was two.
I thought that was their biggest one.
That was pretty much his biggest one, but he did have another semi successful one out
there, but we should.
So we have a list, a comprehensive list of one hit wonders and let's count them down.
We haven't done a countdown list in a while.
All right.
So 18 of 18.
Here we go.
We downloaded a, I did, we did like a top hundred.
I put it on there, but the top 18 is a separate list.
So the top was like Google put out.
It was an I a one, but I will tell you, I Googled that at the house and popped off the list
and then I came here and Googled it and they transcribed a few.
They just kind of changed the, yes, this is Google Gemini.
They kind of,
If you use AI, you're never going to get a consistent answer.
It was interesting though.
So I don't have to produce her.
Start us with the, the, the first one of the very back end.
Who I liked this one.
Ron hit rumbers and we all know this, this guy right?
Oh yeah.
I saw him live in concert.
Really?
Yes.
Did you, did you dress like that?
This is a great recognizable baseline to it.
I've never heard it before.
Oh yes you have.
I can't see you.
This was like the basis for all my DJing.
So, oh yeah.
Oh, this, this gets everybody on the dance floor, man.
Every time it does.
I saw it.
I saw him live in concert at the Guana Mirage on Greenville.
Hey, what, you know, this reminds me of the movie proposal.
They, they, they have a,
Oh yeah.
Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds.
Yeah.
I actually, I'm a huge bag when it comes to some of these, these movies,
what are these?
The women's movies, what do they call them?
Romcoms.
From what?
Romcoms.
Romantic comedy.
Oh yeah.
The chick flicks.
That's the traditional.
Did you like how to lose a guy in 10, 10 days?
I don't recall that one.
Well, we got off the list in a hurry.
Number 17.
What is number 17?
This was a classical.
First one was.
Great video too.
There we go.
Safety dance.
This is fucked up.
Why is there a little person running with him all over the place?
There were midgets back then.
You mean the midget?
Yeah.
Today there were little people, back then there were midgets.
That was before people became cousins.
That's a guy that played the hobbit.
No, no, no, no.
That was what is the willow?
No, that's not willow.
I love that movie, by the way.
That looked like shocker from the land of law.
Oh, they added a girl.
Oh, this is like a Wizard of Oz type of thing.
They're like, they're like adding to their.
So the one hit one or the safety hats came out with the men without hats
come up the safety dance.
What's next?
The men without hats come up the safety dance.
It's a great song, actually.
It was extremely popular.
I think everyone loved it.
Back to 99 Lop balloons.
We got Nina.
The Harry armpits.
Is she really?
Yes.
You know what?
I recall living in Germany.
It wasn't even in English.
This version isn't.
Most of the women out there had Harry armpits.
She's cute.
She has some teeth where she's done.
She's got a little bit of hair.
She has some teeth where she's done.
What are they wrong?
They're teeth.
Do you think she ever did teeth?
I mean, you're so critical.
I mean, look, the only time a teeth become imperative problem is when they nick you.
Well, there's like a song.
Lots of edges and stuff.
It wasn't one of my favorites though.
I gotta be honest.
Oh, but it was a classic when all the women loved it.
Oh yeah.
And she's cute.
Next.
She has fucked up teeth according to Jeff.
I don't get it phrased that way.
Number 15.
That's exactly what you said.
That's what you said.
She needs teeth work.
Yeah, I don't think it matters the order in which they come in.
We're just going to pick out the greatest in any order.
Okay.
Because I don't think that's actually critical.
No, this is like the official list.
I was not a fan of this song when it came out.
I wasn't either, but I tell you what, it's great.
I tell you, Barry and I were at the PeopleSoft conference and they were playing on a side
stage and they were in there all in their fifties and they fucking killed it.
Devo, they freaking killed it.
There's people in here.
I don't know which one it is.
I think one of the names is Good Love or something like that.
Or Mother's Ball or something like that.
It does a lot of theme songs for like TV shows and movies and shit.
See, you can't help but sing.
I'm sorry, Jeff, what were you saying?
There's somebody there who abuses wife or something.
He whipped it.
Are you serious?
He whipped it.
Yeah.
Now Jeff's all butthurt.
We didn't let him tell the story because we were singing.
That was a good song too.
This big country.
In a big country.
Oh, good song.
A lot of British.
Are they Aussies?
Are they Aussie or British?
I don't know.
There's a lot of influence from all over.
That looks British countryside.
That's right.
I used to have one of those.
You want to try it.
You should get that thing.
He's very British sounding.
He's a pop band.
He needs T-Court too.
Actually, I may look into a little electric power one.
Yeah, no electric but a gas problem.
Look how fast those guys are going.
They're on little trikes.
This is a good song.
There's a brother in that band.
Yeah, well, you know what?
That is for in a big country and in a big country.
All right, next one.
These are good.
Yeah, I'm digging them.
These are one hit wonders.
These guys.
One hit wonders.
This one's Thomas Dolby.
She blinded me with science.
What was the video?
Was it movie?
He had more.
Was this weird science or?
I don't think so.
I don't like in the movie.
That was a little boy to me was so in.
This was okay.
Yeah, I wasn't really my favorite.
Yeah, I was so popular though.
It was.
Oh, she was popular as far as one hit wonders.
Yeah, I don't think it was my favorite.
Yeah, it was a part.
Is that the White House?
Wow, it looks like it.
I wonder how they shot the video there.
That's kind of interesting.
This is like an emotion obsession.
This is a good song.
It's really good.
This is classic.
I kept thinking these, this was human league.
They're very similar, aren't they?
They're like that very angular looking.
Angular, what does that mean?
He's got a very sharp jawline.
His hair is very too fancy.
He looks like the cliche Vogue or Vivo style.
What is that? That's not even the word.
Oh, now he's got on a great song.
He's a gladiator.
Look at the bassist, man.
He's a gladiator.
They're so cheesy.
Look at them.
They compete me.
I love it.
You know they've been up there for like six hours doing that?
Do they got it just right?
He's wearing a Spartan costume.
It looks like stone.
I am just so cool.
He looks like he's been on fricking cocaine for eight months.
Look at the girl.
The girl can't dance for a shit.
I know.
I love you.
Yes, I love you.
Kind of juggie, yeah.
I don't find it.
It's a horrible video.
Great song.
Yeah, for those eighties lovers out there.
I appreciate that.
Oh, of course.
What's the next one on the list?
All right, go to the next one.
Isn't that a juggie?
This is exciting.
Yeah, she was.
I love this song either.
Gary Newman Cars.
This is a very repetitive song.
Cars.
I like it, man.
Oh, I love this song.
Yeah.
Very repetitive.
Very repetitive song.
Yeah, but it's still...
You have to groove to it, you know.
Yeah, it's all...
This is the time where people are probably taking some ecstasy.
Oh, yeah.
He's got the song on.
He's got to dance to it.
Yeah.
This is where you're like shit-faced and you have no idea what you're looking at.
Yeah.
Who's in my butt?
The girl walks up and pulls you out on the dance floor and you're like, okay, sure.
Yeah, it's not that great actually.
Yeah.
What is crazy is that the sexuality back in the 80s is just as fucking crazy as it is
now.
It really was kind of androgynous looking, wasn't it?
Yeah.
I mean, you could have met...
God, what's...
You called the other guy Angler and this guy's androgynous.
What, this is a fucking A?
You going through your A power word list?
My SAT words.
Archa-tooth this.
Yeah.
He looks very architucanth.
All right, next one.
All right.
God.
Speaking of sexuality, this old Frankie goes to Hollywood.
Yeah, this is crazy.
Yeah, they're...
They're that fucking teethy bastard.
Did you see that?
Did you do that?
His teeth had like four layers.
Yeah, what's going on with the teeth back in these days?
They're British teeth.
British teeth.
Oh.
She's got a bouncy...
Yeah, she needs...
We're in all sorts of weird...
Oh, this is a leather...
What do you say?
It's dressed up like a bluestar coat in biker memories?
Biker with a beard, yes.
Yeah, look at that.
This is like biker gay...
Biker there is.
What is happening?
What is that?
Was that a pickle?
It was a pickle.
What the hell?
It's a pickled dill pickle.
Oh.
Oh, this is awful.
All right.
This is...
Oh, stop.
This is...
Actually, this song was huge to people with dance to it.
You're smelling it.
Oh, but the video is over the top already.
That looked like the opening of the Olympics.
All right.
Look, I imagine when I lived in New Jersey and my dad got the orders to move from New
Jersey of Fort Mammoth, we went to...
We moved to Fort Blas El Paso, Texas.
And we packed up all our shit, sent off in the semi trucks.
We get into the van and we turn on the car and we're all upset.
We're sad.
Okay.
We're sad.
We have to leave our house and we've been there for a while, man.
Imagine having to move and say goodbye to all your friends.
And this is the first song that pops on.
Relax.
No, the one he's about to play.
Oh.
Kaja Gugu.
Like I said earlier.
This song is awesome.
You know the name of the lead singer?
We do.
Uh...
Gugu.
His name is La Paul.
This is actually a great song.
I like this song.
This has got to be 1984 or 83 maybe.
What's that bass?
Oh, the bass is great.
It's all four.
Is that a synthesizer though?
Is that a keyboard?
No, he's on the bass right there.
I remember sitting in the back of the van.
I was...you know, you got the two front seats and the captain seats.
Oh yeah.
And then the second row.
I was in the back and I was hidden and I was crying.
I was so upset because I had to say goodbye to all my friends I've known forever.
Yeah.
At least like most of your toys.
And this one.
Yeah, that was in Germany.
And literally, so this song makes you think of that every time.
It does.
But I hear that.
I remember the transition from living on the East Coast, New Jersey, moving to El Faka
Paso, which is the armpit.
Oh, armpit.
Seriously, going from Germany to El Paso.
El Paso is beautiful with its own merit, but it's not Germany.
It's completely different from everything.
And plus, you know, you're...
And you didn't know anybody there.
You're a minority, which is, again, it's just different.
You're thrown into a world of just disarray.
You know, you've got like...
Yeah, the point is you didn't have any friends.
You didn't know anybody.
People speak in Spanish.
I didn't speak any of that.
And they were like, you know, and I'm white.
And I'm like, oh my God, I am truly a minority.
I have no idea.
I remember the first time I got jumped at a Chico's Tacos.
Yeah.
Well, this Lamal guy, he broke off from this band pretty quick after this, because he had
this one day and he thought he was the shit.
He actually sang the theme song to Never Ending Story.
Remember that movie?
Yes.
Never Ending Story.
What's his name?
Lamal.
Yeah.
He's the one who sang that.
Oh, oh, oh.
Great song.
That was a great song.
Yep, yep, yep.
All right.
So we're going to try to...
I always thought she was kind of sexy.
Wow.
Wow, wow.
Wow, wow, wow.
I went candy.
Ah, I'm on candy.
I never liked this song.
I thought this song was kind of...
I liked it.
I thought she was kind of sexy.
Well, she's like a video.
And she's wet.
Well, she's in the ocean.
So, yeah, everybody looks good in the ocean.
Clearly salsa.
It's a teenage boy.
This is kind of repetitive song, don't you think?
Kind of along the lines of cars.
No, this one is a little bit better than cars.
That's dangerous to bury yourself up to your neck.
Oh, wow.
Mr. Producer loves this song.
Oh, she is cute.
Damn.
She's really cute.
I can see how this week is super popular with a lot of the kids out there because everyone
wants candy.
Everyone wants candy.
Every time we went to the store, that's exactly what I said.
Mom, I want candy.
Shut up and get in the back seat.
Of course, you're talking about math.
Take that.
Yes, candy is always drugs.
Oh, I didn't realize you were so in tune with them.
Come on, these are rock stars.
That's what they do.
All right, she's cute.
I wonder where she is.
I wonder where she is now.
Yeah, I think she's at the pool.
I believe the candy is the boy.
Oh, like what part of the boy?
Like his wiener.
What?
Oh, come on.
Make your mouth water.
You're sweet.
She's licking the ice cream cone.
It could be his nose.
I'm out.
All right.
It could be the next one is this other this one.
I wonder this is actually a solid song that would be good today.
And I think it was there was a rebake thing.
But who?
I was a George straight.
George straight.
I say the cult.
But I'm going to.
Now I told him.
This is in my playlist.
He's got that typical just 80s.
You know who he looks like English Rick from the cars.
Yes.
Rick.
Oh, sick.
Oh, is Oasek.
Okay, sick.
He just died.
Yeah, not too long ago.
Not just died probably five years ago.
He was married to that Paulina force.
Yeah, the model.
He's got some mouth therapy.
Good one.
Good stuff.
A very fast paced one.
This one kind of, you know, we're probably not going to play it because it's not a one
hit wonder.
I always associate the modern.
I melt with you with.
Yes.
The cure.
Oh yeah.
Same timeframe.
And then I'm going to have this at the same song.
Yeah.
The next one is 1981 released by Tony Basil.
Tony.
This was a massive hit.
It's strange enough.
So dumb when she did this, she was actually, I want to say she was in her.
She was.
She was in her early 40s.
Yeah.
And it's the cheerleader cheerleader deal.
They're like very thick cheerleaders.
Oh yeah.
Well, they have a program set up back there.
Try to make her look nice and small.
Oh God.
Well, she's a choreographer by trade.
Oh really?
Not a singer.
Yeah.
I can't really tell from this.
What a shot.
She's a choreographer by trade, but you can't really tell from this video.
God.
Great song though.
So she was very catchy.
She was 40 back then.
She's in her 80s now.
Yeah.
Close to it.
And she's still making videos like this.
She still has it up.
Oh, look at that.
She does have a shift on the makeup on.
Oh yeah.
Oh God.
You're right.
The choreography is not good.
No.
Okay.
Good song though.
That was definitely a good one hit wonder.
Oh, here's another good one.
Tommy Tutone.
This is the number everybody knew back in the day.
Oh yeah.
Poor bastard that had that number.
Yeah.
Actually, you can call that number today.
And there is no one.
There's no one.
Instrument she does.
On what area code check them.
Just dial the numbers straight out on any of them, but it's going to say you
not, you haven't entered enough numbers.
Well, look, just do it.
I haven't done a long time.
I know you're playing like the other people.
And then.
But that banana.
Good song.
Can you imagine if this was your number?
Yeah, my name is.
I'm saying.
I wonder if he just they sat there and went through different iterations
of numbers until one just rolled up the tongue like this.
I'm guessing it was a real number.
You think?
Yeah.
I think this was probably inspired them to write this song.
But I mean, why else would you come up with a random set of numbers?
Right?
I mean, I wonder if they did this and went through different iterations of numbers.
That would be really interesting to hear what the audience.
Let's interview them.
Let's get them on the show.
Let's get Tommy to do it.
Just do it.
Are they all still alive?
One hit wonders of the 80s.
Casey Casey with the one hit wonders of the 80s.
This is the biggest one so far.
No question.
I still hear this on the radio.
This is a great video, too, I think it's the it was a ground breaking video.
Yeah, we've talked about this before.
Fantastic inspirational, innovative, realized it was a wonder.
What else did they have?
But they didn't have another one, but I was.
This was huge.
This is a huge hit.
They say I'm telling you, they still played on the radio regularly.
They play all these.
Maybe not Mickey, but yeah, they play all these.
Yeah, but Tony Basel is included on a ton of 80s CDs.
If you buy a pack of you buy a five pack of 80s, you're guaranteed she's on one of them.
That says a lot.
Who buys 80s CDs?
I'm just saying, you know, if you had one.
80s Spotify pop list.
Oh, it's going to be in there.
She's out there.
All these are going to be on there.
Yeah, all these are going to be on there.
I'm so impressed with this video.
She is a girl in a diner looking into a comic book magazine.
That's, you know, and he's reaching in and pulling her into it into the fake world, into the comic book world.
That's all drawn.
Fantastic video.
I don't think we had ever seen anything like this.
Well, this is just drawing too.
Yeah.
Yeah, but look what they're doing here.
He's walking behind the window seeing, I mean, damn, like a second to third dimension.
Yes, this, nothing had ever been done like this before.
It's interesting.
And plus, you know what is extremely popular?
I love this song.
Yeah, yeah.
They could sing too, man.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, this is what part right here.
We'll turn it off after this part.
Turn it off for this last part.
You what?
He couldn't really hit the high notes though.
What?
Really?
I'm joking.
Everybody tries to hit this note when they sing, but they can't.
No, I can't get close.
Carry on there, senorito.
All right.
What's the next one?
These are good, man.
So this next one, I actually seen these guys in a concert probably 25, 30 years or 28 years
ago.
Jesus.
This guy, I remember this, he just stands there and holds one key down.
Did you ever notice that?
That's all he does.
Watch him when they show him.
This is a great song though.
You know what's funny?
I had the guitarist that's like Greg Mariannis.
Yes.
Do you ever find that you hate a song when it first came out when you were a kid when
you listened to it?
And then like later you're like, oh, this is a great song.
It's funny how your taste can change when it comes to music.
That is.
You know, you're like, oh, I'm going to be anti the cure.
You mentioned the cure earlier.
Right.
When I was in college, the cure was just the band.
He was playing his one key there.
And he is.
He's just holding his key down.
That's it.
And I was, I couldn't stand the cure and I can listen to it now probably because it's
more nostalgia.
Yes.
Because I heard so much of it back then when you go to the clubs, I know the dance song
will come out.
The club he went to, that's what was playing.
Yep.
And shit like that.
And just immediately turning songs off on the radio back then.
And now I'm like, oh, this is great song.
All right.
Let's keep rolling.
This is good.
These are one hit wonders.
Yeah.
Fluck of Seagulls had another one though.
Did they?
Yeah, they did.
They did, but it wasn't popular.
It didn't make it on the charts.
I think some of these are, some of these guys are two hit wonders for that.
This is not the original one, by the way.
This is tainted cell or whatever it's called.
Tainted love.
Tainted love, of course.
This is not the original, what you're saying?
Not the video.
No, I hear the drum beats a little bit different from the actual original.
It looks original though.
No, the video, this is not the video.
It's actually an interesting video though.
Yeah.
So I thought this song was interesting.
I really love this song.
I really enjoyed it, man.
This also reminded me of another song that, four, three, two, one.
Major Tom.
Peter Shilling.
Yeah.
That is great.
Now Peter Shilling should have been on the list.
Did he come up with another song?
I've never heard anything else from him.
And that is one of the top in my opinion.
I love that song.
I tell you what, I'll put that on the, that's on my motorcycle playlist.
It's actually on my playlist.
Yeah.
Yep.
This was a big one.
This was huge.
Yeah.
It really was.
Everyone loved it.
Oh yeah.
This is very catchy tune.
Yeah.
And you know what?
It also paved the way for a lot of musicians out there that wanted to get into this style
of music because, you know, there were a lot of, you know, but the violin, yeah.
Interesting.
Infusion into it.
I mean, they're still nowadays doing it.
This page, I think so.
Like even the slow part, because it's like, even when it gets like the climax of the song
and then it drops into the boom.
The video is interesting.
It's talking about a history of like family history here.
I don't know the story behind the song, but it's,
Oh, I hope that's not family.
They just care.
So, you know what I'm saying here?
I'm sorry.
Love of the family.
No, it's just be a family thing.
I come on.
I lead.
I've never seen this video.
I've never seen this video either.
Oh yeah.
They're all there are a little overalls and acting like poor people.
So these are like French.
They're like, like, back in like, yeah, hobos on the side of the street here.
Interesting.
Dexie midnight runners.
Come on.
Thank you to love it.
I'm surprised there's a few I think that are missing up here.
Like, like you said, Peter Schilling.
I think, uh, God, what the madness?
Our house.
18 of them already.
Oh yeah.
Our house in the middle of our street.
Our house.
That's a great one.
Man, there's, we can go on and on about the 80s stuff.
I mean, there's, there's, there's tons of shit out there.
Of course we grew up with it.
And, you know, nowadays is things are just different now.
You know, they've got Taylor Swift.
What kung fu fighting.
Love's kung fu fighting.
What?
Why are you doing that?
What's with this?
Toa.
Oh, you beat me to it.
You beat me to it.
Yes.
Interesting.
Yep.
Yeah, actually on that list, Paul, we did the top 100.
Just kind of read down a bunch that we missed.
Two of hearts, Stacey Q.
Two of hearts.
I need you.
Okay.
Damn it.
You guys left me hanging.
Yeah.
I'll be sending that to you later.
Eddie Grant, electric avenue.
I know you will.
You always do it.
Maniac, Michael Simbalo.
Nice.
Maniac, Maniac.
Somebody's watching me.
You spin me around, Dead or Alive.
There's a lot of them, man.
Safe.
Oh, we already talked about safety.
Yes.
But, uh,
Oh, turning Japanese of Vapors.
Oh my God.
We're sushi.
I think I'm turning Japanese.
I really think so.
No, that's wrong.
In the mirror,
in the mirror,
What?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Yeah, everybody knows that.
I didn't know that.
We've all done that.
When you're right there on the edge.
That's what he's calling it.
He's done that turning Japanese.
Oh,
already then.
And we've got our bourbon of the day.
We've got a bourbon for the second half.
Last one.
I'm on a Mexican radio.
That's a great song.
I got to put that on my playlist.
I'm on a Mexican...
Okay, we're talking about...
This is not a bourbon.
It's not a bourbon.
It's a lone, elm, single-barrel, Texas street,
whiskey, distilled from grain in 40, Texas.
Maybe we need to...
We'll have to see if they have a distilled radio.
It is local.
Where is Fony?
It's in the neighborhood.
It is local.
Where is Fony?
East of Mesquite.
But not quite as far as Tyler?
No, it's not as far as Tyler.
Nice. That is totally in the realm of a short day trip.
Oh, yeah.
It's probably from here, probably about 40, 45 minutes.
Just like...
1845.
Oh, no, yeah.
Be like going to the root.
Let's do it.
Let's do it this weekend.
I don't know if I can.
You got plans?
It's Julie's birthday tomorrow.
That's tomorrow.
That's not Saturday.
We celebrate the month.
The whole month.
I'm not going to Fayetteville now.
I'm telling my son to sell his shit.
There's no point in me driving all the way down the trailer
and bringing it all the way back to sell that shit.
So I'm not going to Fayetteville.
So we should go to Lone Elm.
Speaking of Lone Elm,
we have to see if they even have a distillery to go to.
That's true.
What do we know about this whiskey that's not a bourbon?
Well, the ABV says it's
60%
ish, but this one,
particular one's 121.8 proof.
So, oh,
can't really see because it's full go down a little bit more.
It tastes that way too. I got to be honest.
Look, you both,
you said it's very ethanol-y.
I'm not getting that. It's not ethanol-y.
I'm just saying it's extremely rich.
I don't know if it was when you first poured it.
Yeah. The Tasty Notes say dark cherry.
I'm getting a lot of that.
It is very rich.
Stone fruit beginnings with touches of
current.
Current? Current? Current.
I don't even know what that is. And cocoa.
A berry.
Finished with after
otones of oat vanilla,
saddle leather, and hints of
tobacco. Hey, see, I said saddle-y.
I said saddle leather.
I'll tell you what, when you first poured this
and the first few noses,
I was picking up ketchup.
Yeah, it seemed weird to me.
Yeah, there was something weird. I couldn't place it.
I went with that because
I didn't know what else to call it.
Something tangy is what it is.
There's some tang. It's not in the taste,
but it's in the nose. Yeah.
It's almost like a barbecue
sauce. There's some tangy about it.
I don't know. It's got the tobacco. It's kind of a barbecue
sauce actually. Yeah, well, that's the taste.
It's got the dark cherry tones
and the stone fruit that's
influencing that. I don't know.
But it's kind of a cat's
up. Scroll down there a little bit.
Is there anything else? Is that it?
That's it.
So we don't know exactly how long this distiller
has been alive.
I've never heard of it. How long has it been
barreled? Go to the
about our story, which it's
a, let's see what it's
loan Elm.
The characteristics of the
characteristics smooth quality that our
Texas wheat delivers
makes it all the way through to our final bottom
when we start, when we started
five points distilling, we had
already decided that wheat would
give us the quality we're looking for in the spirits
and our distiller was custom designed to build
to produce wheat spirits. Oh, wow.
So hold on. The water is another
obvious thing. All right. Our barrels are made
of a new American oak with medium
char. So what does that mean? Like
two, three, two and a half.
I don't know. Medium. It seems fair.
So they got purified water. Our barrels are made
of new, the Texas weather is another
factor. Texas puts out a whole different
it does.
The strain of bourbons out there and
whiskeys are processed while rooted
in traditional methods, employs the latest
techniques and technologies. Rest assured
when you buy a loan Elm
spirits, you're getting the best quality combined
with an environmentally conscious footper.
That scares me a little bit. What did they do
there? They put COVID? They're not
woke. They're definitely not woke.
Yeah. That's kind of crazy, man,
because we were talking about woke go broke.
Hey, first of all, let before we get into
the Harley-Davidson
talk, I want to bring it up shortly.
We got to finish this whiskey first.
Before we get that.
So, you know,
let's just
talking about the taste. I mean, I taste
licorice. I taste, I told you I say
butter cream, but I don't taste as much
now.
I don't think any of that. No butter
for me. And it also
didn't taste. I have some mint.
It didn't mellow at all to
me. You know how we let it breathe
for a while and blah, blah, blah. It didn't
mellow. That could be good or
bad if you like it. So I'm going
to rate this a six nine and it's not because
I don't like it. I just
think that we
we should start stretching.
Yeah, create a little bit more variance
between our selections here.
I would not kick this out of
bed, but I
wouldn't consider this into the seven
category. I'm going to call it a six nine.
Well, compared to the Stelum
granted, this is a
wheat whiskey that was a bourbon before.
I think we I gave that an eight, three
or four, something like that. I'm going
six five on this.
I was going to go six eight.
Which is still
all those are respectful, which is still above average.
Yeah.
Don't think of that as a kick in the nuts.
The product is fantastic. It's highly recommended.
It's got a great taste. We're enjoying it.
Yeah. You know, you know what
we were talking earlier. It's like which
ones which ones of our bourbons
would you like if you had a friend's
house and they poured you a drink,
you wouldn't ask for a second one.
I would absolutely ask for a second and third
of this one. I drink this. No question
about it. No question about it. Do you want
another one? Yeah, I'll have another one. Yeah,
absolutely. But there are some
who would be like, yeah, yeah, I'm good.
Do you have something else?
So yeah,
it's good. I think it's good. I think so.
Good Lord. That was a
fast podcast.
It's 1004. Is that too early?
No. I don't know.
I don't keep track of that part. It seems
kind of fast. It's about usual, I think.
Yeah.
We were just about to get to something. We'll have to
table it for our next podcast. What was it I talked
about?
Oh, really?
Yeah, there was supposed to be a segue.
Oh, the world Carly Davidson folks.
Yes.
And they're sniffing them out.
They are. Our good buddy,
Mr.
Starbuck. Bob Starbuck. He's sniffing
them out. He's doing it, taking it for the team.
Good for him. Yes. Check us
out on our, we got our Instagram
and Facebook dudes like us,
podcast dudes just like us,
we're doing some woodcraft. We'd love to send you some woodcraft projects.
We're going to post some new stuff. Just got an 1845
map.
20 by 28. Very cool.
Beautiful. Shout out to Larry crossing 1845
Distillery. You guys rock hard.
Mr. Producer, thank you for being on top tonight
with that 18 Count. Awesome.
Dude, is that guys? I'm Sean. I'm Paul.
Thank you.
