00:00:02.189 --> 00:00:11.810
It's Dan Time. Grab a seat. It's Dan Time. Yeah.

00:00:11.949 --> 00:00:22.230
It's Dan Time. Only dance on the line. Only dance

00:00:22.230 --> 00:00:27.730
all the time. This is the Dan Time podcast with

00:00:27.730 --> 00:00:37.420
your host, Dan McGarrett. All right. Thanks for

00:00:37.420 --> 00:00:40.799
checking out the Dan Time podcast. It's good

00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:43.859
to be with you. It's good to not have to say

00:00:43.859 --> 00:00:46.640
my name at the top of every episode, which not

00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:50.299
a big problem there, but it's kind of nice to

00:00:50.299 --> 00:00:52.299
have somebody say it for me. Get that out of

00:00:52.299 --> 00:00:56.039
the way and really have to thank Mr. Danny Cole.

00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:59.259
I hope you enjoyed. I know you did the episode

00:00:59.259 --> 00:01:03.439
from last week with the Ottawa based guitarist

00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:06.730
extraordinaire. And one hell of a gentleman,

00:01:07.069 --> 00:01:11.370
Danny Cole. I appreciate you as a listener. Haven't

00:01:11.370 --> 00:01:14.969
said it as often as I need to. It's like someone

00:01:14.969 --> 00:01:18.629
that says, I haven't told you I love you. Why

00:01:18.629 --> 00:01:22.730
have I been slacking on that? You do mean a lot

00:01:22.730 --> 00:01:25.209
to me. Why haven't I told you that? It's out

00:01:25.209 --> 00:01:29.430
of the same vein. Thanks for listening and subscribing.

00:01:30.100 --> 00:01:33.040
And I do appreciate you. I want to make that

00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:36.420
I have always wanted to make that a prominent

00:01:36.420 --> 00:01:42.640
reason for doing all this Yes, I've got the gimmick

00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:46.519
Dan talking to fellow Dan's but the show is just

00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:50.340
supposed to be fun and I Didn't hear I still

00:01:50.340 --> 00:01:52.859
don't hear a lot of hosts saying anything beyond.

00:01:52.859 --> 00:01:55.879
Thanks for listening So I wanted to take it a

00:01:55.879 --> 00:01:59.420
step further and speak to you the person that's

00:01:59.420 --> 00:02:02.439
actually listening to this show right now, and

00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:04.599
you're paying attention, you like it, and you've

00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:08.379
liked all the episodes. And you just hear somebody

00:02:08.379 --> 00:02:11.139
on the other side, on the microphone saying,

00:02:11.780 --> 00:02:16.360
you're a big deal. You might feel like you're

00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:20.280
not a big deal. You may or may not have questions

00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:25.520
about where you fit in, where you belong. What's

00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:27.740
going on in this chapter of your life? What's

00:02:27.740 --> 00:02:31.379
why is everything going wrong? Maybe that's not

00:02:31.379 --> 00:02:34.620
going on with you. If that's the case keep doing

00:02:34.620 --> 00:02:37.400
what you're doing But if you need to hear some

00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:40.819
positive words that's a big part of me doing

00:02:40.819 --> 00:02:45.000
this is a podcast is nothing without the people

00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.340
who listen to it and I listen to a bunch of shows

00:02:48.340 --> 00:02:51.919
and they do a lot of things right, but just like

00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.909
my favorite bands I think, you know, you could

00:02:54.909 --> 00:02:58.490
use the Kiss example. Paul Stanley said something

00:02:58.490 --> 00:03:01.270
along the lines of, we wanted to go out, we were

00:03:01.270 --> 00:03:04.150
watching bands live and we wanted to be the band

00:03:04.150 --> 00:03:06.069
that we weren't seeing. We wanted to put on the

00:03:06.069 --> 00:03:09.409
show that we weren't seeing. I don't want to

00:03:09.409 --> 00:03:11.569
take that and say, oh, I want to be the best

00:03:11.569 --> 00:03:14.289
show that you've ever heard. But I want you to

00:03:14.289 --> 00:03:18.710
listen to this and hear a little less vanity

00:03:18.710 --> 00:03:23.939
from the host. It's pretty easy. To hear some

00:03:23.939 --> 00:03:26.699
shows that are produced very well. They've got

00:03:26.699 --> 00:03:31.000
great guests But the host it's you just know

00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:35.860
you just know that this person is Just has a

00:03:35.860 --> 00:03:40.120
giant ego And you know, they can't let the other

00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:43.180
person talk they've got a interject every I mean

00:03:43.180 --> 00:03:45.139
you just call you know, it's coming every five

00:03:45.139 --> 00:03:49.419
six seven seconds The guest is it just into the

00:03:49.419 --> 00:03:53.780
very first leg of telling a exciting story answering

00:03:53.780 --> 00:03:57.199
a question, you know, drawing on their deep into

00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:01.280
the, the archives to, to enlighten you. And then

00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.060
the host has got to interject and he does it

00:04:04.060 --> 00:04:07.199
repeatedly. The entire conversation, that stuff

00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:10.280
drives me nuts and you won't hear it on this

00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:13.919
show on Dan time. So always want to bring a little

00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:16.839
something different to the table. I'm not trying

00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.519
to reinvent the wheel, but you're going to hear

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:23.029
from people who In many cases, I want you to

00:04:23.029 --> 00:04:27.610
come away thinking, she was incredible. Why isn't

00:04:27.610 --> 00:04:31.089
her music all over the place? Why isn't, why

00:04:31.089 --> 00:04:35.149
don't more people know about this musician? But

00:04:35.149 --> 00:04:38.370
thanks for being a part of this. I wanted to,

00:04:38.370 --> 00:04:41.269
I wanted to plug in a bonus episode here that

00:04:41.269 --> 00:04:45.670
really has no format. This is basically a state

00:04:45.670 --> 00:04:49.930
of Dan time and even a hundred plus episodes

00:04:49.930 --> 00:04:56.439
in. A reveal party. An explanation of where Dantime

00:04:56.439 --> 00:05:03.040
came from. Some background on the phrase Dantime.

00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:11.319
First of all, the state of Dantime is strong.

00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:15.860
It's never been stronger. We've come a long way

00:05:15.860 --> 00:05:21.209
since the first 10 or 15 episodes. recorded using

00:05:21.209 --> 00:05:25.569
a couple tin cans and some wire. And it's been

00:05:25.569 --> 00:05:31.709
a real joy to assemble the body of work here

00:05:31.709 --> 00:05:35.810
week after week, month after month, almost two

00:05:35.810 --> 00:05:39.750
years in. And I've come to a realization that

00:05:39.750 --> 00:05:44.810
it's okay. It is all right to step back a little

00:05:44.810 --> 00:05:48.149
bit. And I'm here to announce that the quest

00:05:48.149 --> 00:05:52.699
to deliver an episode every week without fail

00:05:52.699 --> 00:05:57.300
is officially over. Now, some of you may hear

00:05:57.300 --> 00:06:01.259
that and think, oh, well, no big deal. Whatever.

00:06:01.980 --> 00:06:04.319
What else is going on, Dan? I don't really care

00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:06.839
about that. Some of you may be hearing that and

00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:10.660
thinking, what are you talking about? You've

00:06:10.660 --> 00:06:15.139
ruined my Monday mornings. What's happening?

00:06:16.129 --> 00:06:18.569
I imagine this to be a very, very small minority,

00:06:18.629 --> 00:06:22.790
so I apologize. The fact is, when I started this

00:06:22.790 --> 00:06:25.930
show, I had a five -year -old, a two -year -old,

00:06:25.930 --> 00:06:28.949
and a one -year -old. So now we're almost eight.

00:06:29.490 --> 00:06:32.629
We're eight, we're four, we're three. And the

00:06:32.629 --> 00:06:35.889
demands, I don't have to explain all this. I've

00:06:35.889 --> 00:06:38.750
been telling myself, Dan, you do not have to

00:06:38.750 --> 00:06:41.750
go through this, but maybe this just helps me.

00:06:42.290 --> 00:06:48.269
There are too many demands. on my Dan Time. I

00:06:48.269 --> 00:06:51.069
once joked to John Hunter, a previous guest,

00:06:52.550 --> 00:06:55.009
that, you know, I really and truly, this was

00:06:55.009 --> 00:06:58.610
back then, a year ago, I don't have time to do

00:06:58.610 --> 00:07:05.750
this. I don't really have time to spend on all

00:07:05.750 --> 00:07:08.889
facets of the Dan Time podcast, if we're being

00:07:08.889 --> 00:07:13.569
honest. I create that time where it really doesn't

00:07:13.569 --> 00:07:19.050
exist and the time has come to just face reality,

00:07:19.569 --> 00:07:24.889
let it go, let it slide and be happy about it.

00:07:25.509 --> 00:07:28.069
So there you have it. I've always prided myself

00:07:28.069 --> 00:07:33.689
on giving you a weekly guest. But what it's led

00:07:33.689 --> 00:07:36.370
to is if you've been listening for two years,

00:07:36.730 --> 00:07:39.790
you know that at some point I have somebody from

00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:44.560
My personal network. It's a friend. It's my brothers

00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:47.759
have both been on the show My mom has been on

00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.480
the show my dad. I have stopped short and believe

00:07:51.480 --> 00:08:06.420
me I have asked I've asked my wife Natalie and

00:08:06.420 --> 00:08:15.579
you'd love to see these I've asked I've asked

00:08:15.579 --> 00:08:19.120
my wife Natalie and If you could be a fly on

00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:21.899
the wall on the times where the question has

00:08:21.899 --> 00:08:25.939
come up You can imagine I'm at the end of the

00:08:25.939 --> 00:08:29.839
line. I don't have I've got to create some content

00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:32.980
here and we're in the car together or we're standing

00:08:32.980 --> 00:08:35.580
there in the kitchen together and how you have

00:08:35.580 --> 00:08:39.899
to lead up to or not just just pop it out there,

00:08:39.899 --> 00:08:44.279
honey, you want to be on the show? And the answer

00:08:44.279 --> 00:08:53.960
is always no. It's always, it's always no. And

00:08:53.960 --> 00:08:57.559
that's okay. That's probably a good thing. If

00:08:57.559 --> 00:08:59.879
I asked one of my kids to be on the show, they

00:08:59.879 --> 00:09:03.059
would gladly accept. And as you know, they've,

00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:05.320
usually Wyatt has made a couple of appearances.

00:09:07.660 --> 00:09:11.639
So there's just not a need to do that. I am I'm

00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:16.159
tightening up You're still gonna get some Danielle's

00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.080
Would love to have some previous guests that

00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:25.259
I think very very highly of Dana Wiley Dana Perry

00:09:25.259 --> 00:09:28.379
Daniel Moralia, you know some of those names

00:09:28.379 --> 00:09:33.440
like to have them back on and you may see Some

00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:38.120
new female guests not named Dan But for the most

00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:40.740
part, I'm going to really, really tighten up

00:09:40.740 --> 00:09:45.820
here and focus on Dan's or people that have a

00:09:45.820 --> 00:09:50.940
legitimate claim to Dan or Dan's story or theme

00:09:50.940 --> 00:09:57.259
or Danny's. And if it just if I if I'm not pleased

00:09:57.259 --> 00:10:00.279
with what I have lined up for that particular

00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:04.759
week, well, you're just not going to get a slice

00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:09.379
of the pie that week. And my recommendation is

00:10:09.379 --> 00:10:13.259
dial it back. There are plenty. I think anybody

00:10:13.259 --> 00:10:17.059
who creates anything and puts it out there for

00:10:17.059 --> 00:10:23.039
the public to consume, you know, there are episodes

00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:27.759
that did not set the world on fire as far as

00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:31.820
view count and downloads that I'm thinking, man,

00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:34.460
that was one of the best. That's one of my favorite

00:10:34.460 --> 00:10:39.350
conversations. Go back and check out some of

00:10:39.350 --> 00:10:42.750
the obscure or not. So obscure Episodes that

00:10:42.750 --> 00:10:46.269
you may have missed this time last year and check

00:10:46.269 --> 00:10:50.230
it out So that's the update on the state of the

00:10:50.230 --> 00:10:54.950
show As you know, maybe you don't know I'm not

00:10:54.950 --> 00:10:58.990
big into this Long drawn -out monologue. I don't

00:10:58.990 --> 00:11:02.490
like to talk. I like to talk I'm not gonna argue

00:11:02.490 --> 00:11:05.210
that I've been told that in the past people I've

00:11:05.210 --> 00:11:08.279
worked with Now I can go quiet for a long period

00:11:08.279 --> 00:11:13.620
of time, but I don't mind talking. Something

00:11:13.620 --> 00:11:17.379
like this though, I don't really want to do an

00:11:17.379 --> 00:11:22.639
episode where it's just me speaking for 27 minutes

00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:26.080
or 18 minutes. And there's shows I listen to

00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:29.399
where they do this all the time, multiple times

00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:36.320
a week. And it's maybe 15, 20 minutes. and then

00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:38.480
they get to the guest. And I don't know about

00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:41.100
you, but I've got some of my favorite shows.

00:11:41.500 --> 00:11:45.279
I'm not gonna name drop them, but a lot of times,

00:11:46.220 --> 00:11:49.159
once they get to, all right, let's get to the

00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:51.139
guest this week. If it's not somebody that's

00:11:51.139 --> 00:11:54.500
really important to me, I'm out of there. I'm

00:11:54.500 --> 00:11:59.700
done. And I loved the intro, but these people,

00:11:59.860 --> 00:12:02.559
they're great at it. Couple of things I wanna

00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:05.600
talk about and then wrap up. Not even that important

00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:10.200
just some observations I just celebrated my 46th

00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:12.100
birthday for those of you wondering how old is

00:12:12.100 --> 00:12:16.259
this guy? Is this a midlife crisis project? Who

00:12:16.259 --> 00:12:19.840
is he? I don't divulge a lot of details about

00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:23.799
me and and that's by design that is not an accident

00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:29.019
You know, I'm a firm firm believer in the idea

00:12:29.019 --> 00:12:33.809
that the older you get I was just talking to

00:12:33.809 --> 00:12:38.049
Travis about this earlier today. The interest

00:12:38.049 --> 00:12:43.190
in the minutia of your day -to -day or there's

00:12:43.190 --> 00:12:48.450
no interest. It doesn't exist. It really doesn't

00:12:48.450 --> 00:12:53.409
exist. How many times have you gotten around

00:12:53.409 --> 00:12:56.909
the people you work with on a Monday and they

00:12:56.909 --> 00:13:01.289
ask you, how was your weekend? How was your weekend?

00:13:02.139 --> 00:13:04.559
Sometimes you answer this question face to face

00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:07.200
a lot of times you answer it on a phone call

00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:09.919
and for some of you that question is being answered

00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:15.759
on a Zoom call maybe with or without video When

00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:20.799
was the last time that you launched into a blow

00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:25.860
-by -blow recap of what how Saturday played out

00:13:25.860 --> 00:13:29.740
and the activities that you were engaged in,

00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:32.200
what your kids were engaged in, the outcome of

00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:36.419
ball games, the birthday party that you took

00:13:36.419 --> 00:13:40.940
your kids to, the movie that you saw, the rock

00:13:40.940 --> 00:13:44.399
that you climbed, the plane that you jumped out

00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:48.440
of, the house that you cleaned, the shed that

00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:51.639
you reorganized. How many times have you launched

00:13:51.639 --> 00:13:58.279
into these narratives about those two glorious

00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:03.860
days away from your job duties only to find that

00:14:03.860 --> 00:14:07.440
the reaction on the other end when you stop talking

00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:13.899
is just crickets for maybe two or three or four

00:14:13.899 --> 00:14:19.460
agonizing seconds. And then you realize not only

00:14:19.460 --> 00:14:24.259
did you lose them, you never had them. You never

00:14:24.259 --> 00:14:29.559
had them. And it's not that your stories aren't

00:14:29.559 --> 00:14:33.440
important. It's not like your weekend wasn't

00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:38.919
exciting. It was. You had a great weekend. It's

00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:45.039
just that people in 2025 do not have the bandwidth.

00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:48.100
Some of them don't, they're not interested, but

00:14:48.100 --> 00:14:52.120
others, good, nice, caring people, they just

00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:56.350
don't have the room for it. They don't. but you

00:14:56.350 --> 00:14:58.809
don't have to ask the question, but I guess we

00:14:58.809 --> 00:15:03.029
feel like we ought to. Eight o 'clock Monday

00:15:03.029 --> 00:15:05.909
morning, we all jump on a team call. How was

00:15:05.909 --> 00:15:11.250
your weekend? It's a reflexive question. I like

00:15:11.250 --> 00:15:13.049
hearing about this stuff. I actually, I'm one

00:15:13.049 --> 00:15:16.610
of these people, I wouldn't say it drives others

00:15:16.610 --> 00:15:20.210
crazy, but I can remember a couple of years ago,

00:15:21.350 --> 00:15:26.450
I get into the small talk. I get into that pre

00:15:26.450 --> 00:15:32.970
meeting chit chat, the icebreaker talk, the obligatory

00:15:32.970 --> 00:15:37.389
intro chatter, the zoom call while we're waiting

00:15:37.389 --> 00:15:41.350
for everyone to waiting for the call to populate.

00:15:43.590 --> 00:15:47.330
And you can always tell sometimes it's the meeting

00:15:47.330 --> 00:15:50.690
organizer. Usually it is. They've been through

00:15:50.690 --> 00:15:53.129
this motion a hundred times thousand times whatever

00:15:53.129 --> 00:15:57.549
and They're just they're not going to explore

00:15:57.549 --> 00:16:01.769
the mundane For more than three and a half minutes.

00:16:01.769 --> 00:16:04.789
It's like there's there's Let's talk about the

00:16:04.789 --> 00:16:07.929
Super Bowl. Oh, yeah, how about that that drop

00:16:07.929 --> 00:16:10.210
pass in the third quarter? Wow, that was crazy

00:16:10.210 --> 00:16:13.370
Yeah, we had a we had a great time We should

00:16:13.370 --> 00:16:15.809
have won that game. All right. Well, let's look

00:16:15.809 --> 00:16:20.549
at Q3 and our goals for Q3 and see where we are

00:16:20.549 --> 00:16:24.190
budgeted versus actual and on and on and and

00:16:24.190 --> 00:16:27.789
I will keep it going. I will drag it out. It's

00:16:27.789 --> 00:16:30.190
almost like I can stop and I do. I have to stop

00:16:30.190 --> 00:16:39.409
sometimes. Alright, been thinking about this

00:16:39.409 --> 00:16:44.070
a lot lately. Bands, music, bands that I like.

00:16:44.669 --> 00:16:48.980
Again, being 46, usually the bands that you're

00:16:48.980 --> 00:16:51.779
into, they got a good 10 years on you at least,

00:16:52.100 --> 00:16:54.879
the founding members. And in my case, you know,

00:16:54.879 --> 00:16:58.059
if you were a kid, a teenager, when you got into

00:16:58.059 --> 00:17:00.759
some of these groups, they're in their sixties,

00:17:01.100 --> 00:17:04.259
maybe some of them up over 70. And I just wrote

00:17:04.259 --> 00:17:06.759
this on my notes for today. Like I just scratched

00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:08.519
out a couple of things I might want to talk about.

00:17:08.859 --> 00:17:12.819
Bands getting old. When you get to be my age,

00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:15.779
I like being able to say that now. when you get

00:17:15.779 --> 00:17:19.480
to be my age. Or I always enjoyed this when I

00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:24.700
was 26. And an old guy would say, now, Dan, you're

00:17:24.700 --> 00:17:28.319
too young to remember. You're too young to remember.

00:17:29.099 --> 00:17:31.299
Well, let's not be so sure about that, Hank.

00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:36.180
What am I too young to remember? I might surprise

00:17:36.180 --> 00:17:39.920
you. I don't get those comments like I used to.

00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:43.769
Or, oh, you're just a baby. when you tell someone

00:17:43.769 --> 00:17:47.029
I'm 32, I'm 35, they don't tell you that you're

00:17:47.029 --> 00:17:52.230
just a baby at 46 anymore. But anyway, I look

00:17:52.230 --> 00:17:55.170
at bands, so all of them, whoever you looked

00:17:55.170 --> 00:17:59.029
up to, whether it was artists, musicians, actors,

00:17:59.349 --> 00:18:02.250
actresses, and you just realize what is, they're

00:18:02.250 --> 00:18:06.809
all aging. They all look old. And then you realize,

00:18:07.089 --> 00:18:11.339
oh, he's 72, he's 78, he's... I didn't realize

00:18:11.339 --> 00:18:14.920
this actor was 85 now. Of course, they look old.

00:18:15.420 --> 00:18:18.500
You're getting older. But I see it with bands

00:18:18.500 --> 00:18:23.079
and in the type of music that I grew up on, some

00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:26.240
of them pulled off better than others. Some of

00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:29.500
the heavy metal bands with members now in their

00:18:29.500 --> 00:18:35.079
late 60s, early 70s, not saying they shouldn't

00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:39.559
be up there on stage shredding away. but it's

00:18:39.559 --> 00:18:42.940
just a reminder that wow the the youth of that

00:18:42.940 --> 00:18:46.700
movement is the original group of bands is gone

00:18:46.700 --> 00:18:49.420
now there are some up -and -coming bands, but

00:18:49.420 --> 00:18:53.619
the forefathers and Then it got me thinking in

00:18:53.619 --> 00:18:58.819
general if these wrinkly old dudes can get up

00:18:58.819 --> 00:19:01.019
there on stage and people still want to reach

00:19:01.019 --> 00:19:04.740
out and grab the fretboard or slap hands with

00:19:04.740 --> 00:19:06.789
them and they're They're in the front row and

00:19:06.789 --> 00:19:10.490
they're just overwhelmed with excitement. Why

00:19:10.490 --> 00:19:14.349
do we do this? Like, why do we still remain enamored

00:19:14.349 --> 00:19:17.210
with, you know, Metallica, for instance, my favorite

00:19:17.210 --> 00:19:22.230
band? I'm at a point now where if I met James

00:19:22.230 --> 00:19:25.549
Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, these are accomplished,

00:19:26.410 --> 00:19:30.450
innovative, groundbreaking people, but they're

00:19:30.450 --> 00:19:33.750
just people. I would just shake hands with them

00:19:33.750 --> 00:19:36.519
and... You know, ask them how they think the

00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:39.819
James, I guess he still follows the Raiders.

00:19:40.259 --> 00:19:43.660
How do you feel about the upcoming season? I

00:19:43.660 --> 00:19:46.559
wouldn't ask for anything to be autographed.

00:19:46.640 --> 00:19:50.579
If I didn't get a photo, whatever. That's just

00:19:50.579 --> 00:19:53.519
my take on it. Why are we so wrapped up with

00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:57.319
these people? When, and I know this is a long

00:19:57.319 --> 00:20:01.180
lead in, where are the all female groups that

00:20:01.180 --> 00:20:05.769
are 60 plus years old? in rock and roll. Where

00:20:05.769 --> 00:20:09.509
are they? Why aren't they? And this is a kind

00:20:09.509 --> 00:20:13.849
of a loaded thinking aloud question. Why aren't

00:20:13.849 --> 00:20:17.930
they idolized? You got the bangles. I'm proud

00:20:17.930 --> 00:20:21.009
that Kitty from, I think their debut record was

00:20:21.009 --> 00:20:23.349
1999. I worked in a record store at the time.

00:20:24.150 --> 00:20:26.190
I believe they're still together. They were together

00:20:26.190 --> 00:20:29.769
for a long time. All female groups. A lot of

00:20:29.769 --> 00:20:35.140
bands with female. front women, and maybe another

00:20:35.140 --> 00:20:37.160
guitarist that's female, but a couple backing

00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:40.299
members that are male. That's a lot more common.

00:20:40.819 --> 00:20:45.240
Why aren't there four women, all original members,

00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:48.180
or maybe you got a bassist that's rotating in

00:20:48.180 --> 00:20:50.980
and out that's not part of the original four?

00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:55.200
Maybe there's not an answer for this. But number

00:20:55.200 --> 00:21:00.910
one, why aren't there more groups of women That

00:21:00.910 --> 00:21:06.470
have been pals since the mid 80s mid 90s Maybe

00:21:06.470 --> 00:21:10.490
they split maybe they reconciled and then the

00:21:10.490 --> 00:21:14.069
second part is let's just say there's one One

00:21:14.069 --> 00:21:16.789
of these groups, which I guess you could again

00:21:16.789 --> 00:21:19.670
go back to the go -go's the runaways I think

00:21:19.670 --> 00:21:22.730
they get together sometimes and the fans adore

00:21:22.730 --> 00:21:26.890
them but uh Yeah, some of some things I wonder

00:21:26.890 --> 00:21:30.890
about on that end and then it's also just I'm

00:21:30.890 --> 00:21:35.150
not enamored with these groups anymore. Because

00:21:35.150 --> 00:21:39.009
once you're, you yourself are older than 16,

00:21:39.089 --> 00:21:44.789
18, 22, you got some life behind you and your

00:21:44.789 --> 00:21:47.970
favorite lead guitarist or drummer is not that

00:21:47.970 --> 00:21:51.769
long haired, youthful, 27 year old stud, you

00:21:51.769 --> 00:21:56.930
know, rock and roll hero. And they're now 66.

00:21:57.910 --> 00:22:01.900
You know, it's like James Hetfield. I'm so identified

00:22:01.900 --> 00:22:06.500
with with Hetfield in the 90s reading his lyrics

00:22:06.500 --> 00:22:09.660
buying magazines wanting to read about what he

00:22:09.660 --> 00:22:14.619
was saying in an interview and now I love Metallica

00:22:14.619 --> 00:22:20.180
I like the memories that I have of some of my

00:22:20.180 --> 00:22:23.819
my favorite bands but that they go back to like

00:22:23.819 --> 00:22:27.319
the late 90s the early part of the aughts the

00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:33.519
2002 345 kind of period and how I felt with the

00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:43.680
music and those personalities back then. The

00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:47.700
MLB All -Star Game. If you watched it, I'm curious

00:22:47.700 --> 00:22:50.019
to hear what you liked, what you didn't like

00:22:50.019 --> 00:22:54.380
about it. I think overall the game itself was

00:22:54.380 --> 00:22:59.279
a success. Now I consider myself a traditionalist,

00:22:59.319 --> 00:23:03.200
purest baseball fan i don't like the pitch clock

00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:08.619
i don't like the ghost runner rule i don't like

00:23:08.619 --> 00:23:12.759
the glove you know i really didn't like the end

00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:17.480
of the dead ball era and installing walls around

00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:20.740
the ball fields uh because if you read about

00:23:20.740 --> 00:23:26.670
that those walls those fences were not Designed

00:23:26.670 --> 00:23:29.509
to keep baseballs in and to produce home runs

00:23:29.509 --> 00:23:33.569
They were installed to keep people out of the

00:23:33.569 --> 00:23:36.950
ballpark who had not paid to be there So I'm

00:23:36.950 --> 00:23:39.670
I guess you could say I'm against the home run

00:23:39.670 --> 00:23:47.809
Very I mean very stubborn and almost unwavering

00:23:47.809 --> 00:23:51.789
purest of the game That being said if you didn't

00:23:51.789 --> 00:23:54.900
make the rules You better accept the roles that

00:23:54.900 --> 00:23:59.180
have been made or find another hobby. Find something

00:23:59.180 --> 00:24:01.220
else to get into because it ain't going to change.

00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:05.220
So I thought the All -Star game was competitive.

00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:10.559
You can't make baseball really any less competitive

00:24:10.559 --> 00:24:13.380
in an exhibition game in quite the same way you

00:24:13.380 --> 00:24:16.599
can a football or basketball. So the pitchers

00:24:16.599 --> 00:24:19.420
are still throwing heat. Best players in the

00:24:19.420 --> 00:24:21.759
game are still striking out when they don't want

00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:25.000
to. But I didn't and I didn't anticipate that

00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:28.240
I would like the swing off at the end to decide

00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:31.900
the outcome of the game and I really I don't

00:24:31.900 --> 00:24:33.900
want to see that outside of the all -star game

00:24:33.900 --> 00:24:37.700
but For the event. I thought it really made for

00:24:37.700 --> 00:24:42.279
an exciting finish for the fans the automatic

00:24:42.279 --> 00:24:48.160
strike zone automated strike zone ABS I I can't

00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:52.380
get behind it. I cannot get behind it I see why

00:24:52.380 --> 00:24:54.779
some people do like it. During the All -Star

00:24:54.779 --> 00:24:59.579
game, was it amusing to see a player challenge

00:24:59.579 --> 00:25:02.440
a ball or strike, look up at the video board

00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:07.079
and see that he was right? Yes. But one of the

00:25:07.079 --> 00:25:09.960
great things about baseball is the arguments.

00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:12.700
You don't want them every time after every play,

00:25:12.700 --> 00:25:17.299
but I think we're going to get to a place in

00:25:17.299 --> 00:25:22.140
the game that the manager no longer forever more

00:25:22.140 --> 00:25:25.539
Storms out of the dugout heading right to home

00:25:25.539 --> 00:25:28.599
plate to give the umpire a piece of his mind

00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:32.519
and Getting tossed from the game the guy at the

00:25:32.519 --> 00:25:35.240
plate getting tossed right behind him I think

00:25:35.240 --> 00:25:37.000
all that's gonna be a thing of the past pretty

00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:40.480
soon. I Just don't want to see in the playoffs

00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:43.140
the ghost runner don't want to see any guys on

00:25:43.140 --> 00:25:47.160
base to start any extra innings in The postseason

00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:50.369
and I don't think they will but That's all I

00:25:50.369 --> 00:25:52.930
got for today for this bonus episode. This is

00:25:52.930 --> 00:25:57.589
just an appreciation event. Dan Time is running

00:25:57.589 --> 00:26:01.690
strong. And if a week goes by and I didn't give

00:26:01.690 --> 00:26:04.029
you some new content, I think you're going to

00:26:04.029 --> 00:26:05.849
get over it. And I think I'm going to get over

00:26:05.849 --> 00:26:09.450
it as well. So part of this is just me letting

00:26:09.450 --> 00:26:13.809
go, relaxing a little bit. What are the coaches

00:26:13.809 --> 00:26:16.329
and executives who are stepping down? They often

00:26:16.329 --> 00:26:18.509
say, well, I'm going to spend some more time

00:26:18.509 --> 00:26:21.160
with my family. So that's what I'm doing. I'm,

00:26:21.160 --> 00:26:24.480
I'm stepping. I'm not stepping aside, but I am

00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:28.599
allowing for more time with my family. They get

00:26:28.599 --> 00:26:32.859
a lot of my Dan time. Okay. So don't, don't take

00:26:32.859 --> 00:26:35.400
that the wrong way, but I'm going to give them

00:26:35.400 --> 00:26:40.660
even more Dan time in the place of bringing back

00:26:40.660 --> 00:26:46.259
somebody like a Kevin McCroskey or a Travis Dyches.

00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:50.720
Excellent guest, or even, uh, Dr. Glenn Fleissig.

00:26:51.019 --> 00:26:53.559
I mean some of these episodes where you've got

00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:58.079
a non Dan and It's dr. Fleissig. It's Sean Perry

00:26:58.079 --> 00:27:02.200
Some of these well, you have to realize Dan wine

00:27:02.200 --> 00:27:07.039
rib referred Dr. Fleissig. He referred Gerald

00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:10.400
Watkins from the Friends of Rickwood. I think

00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:15.160
Sean Perry is maybe the only Guest that is not

00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:18.980
from my network of friends And it really and

00:27:18.980 --> 00:27:22.460
truly is just an extension of my interests. So

00:27:22.460 --> 00:27:24.880
Sean might be Grandfather Dan. He might reappear.

00:27:24.880 --> 00:27:28.799
I don't know. But you may not see another guest

00:27:28.799 --> 00:27:32.599
of that variety. I'm going to let it go. I'm

00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:35.680
going to drop pursuit on people who are just

00:27:35.680 --> 00:27:38.259
of interest to me. It's got to be a Dan. It's

00:27:38.259 --> 00:27:41.339
got to be a Danielle, somebody from the Danverse.

00:27:42.359 --> 00:27:44.519
But thank you for listening. Oh, I almost forgot

00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:48.569
the meaning of Dan time. Today this is this is

00:27:48.569 --> 00:27:50.289
just for you guys. This is for the people who

00:27:50.289 --> 00:27:56.930
made it this far Here it is finally I Used to

00:27:56.930 --> 00:28:00.730
run around with a couple ladies I was not in

00:28:00.730 --> 00:28:02.650
a relationship with either one of them, but this

00:28:02.650 --> 00:28:06.369
is about 15 years ago and I can't remember which

00:28:06.369 --> 00:28:09.490
one told me and I've asked both of them to appear

00:28:09.490 --> 00:28:11.970
on the show and Haven't been able to make it

00:28:11.970 --> 00:28:16.309
happen I'll probably keep trying But they used

00:28:16.309 --> 00:28:21.130
to tell me, Dan, or you're on Dan time. I would

00:28:21.130 --> 00:28:25.190
show up places 10 minutes late, 15 minutes late.

00:28:25.730 --> 00:28:27.690
That was a recurring problem back then. I don't

00:28:27.690 --> 00:28:30.670
think I'm quite that bad, but that's what was,

00:28:30.910 --> 00:28:34.450
that's really where it came from. You're on Dan

00:28:34.450 --> 00:28:40.869
time. I was told back then. And so I pulled that

00:28:40.869 --> 00:28:43.789
out of the bag and made use of it for this podcast.

00:28:44.529 --> 00:28:48.869
There's your answer. There is your answer. But

00:28:48.869 --> 00:28:53.529
it's also come to mean Dan time is a time for

00:28:53.529 --> 00:28:58.390
me, a time for you to escape the day -to -day

00:28:58.390 --> 00:29:02.250
responsibilities and just lighten up and have

00:29:02.250 --> 00:29:07.190
fun and have your own time. And for me, it's

00:29:07.190 --> 00:29:09.950
some Dan time. So there you have it. Thanks for

00:29:09.950 --> 00:29:13.990
listening, folks, and we'll see you next time.

00:29:14.140 --> 00:29:17.740
Not next Sunday, maybe next Sunday, but next

00:29:17.740 --> 00:29:26.200
time. And here he is like right on cue. Here's

00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:30.019
Wyatt. I want some chocolate milk and hey, Wyatt,

00:29:30.200 --> 00:29:35.920
it's time over. Yeah, time's over. Have a great

00:29:35.920 --> 00:29:39.400
week and thanks for listening to the show. Tell

00:29:39.400 --> 00:29:40.279
a friend about it.
