Hey there everybody, this is the season 6 premiere
and We are on to what we call March bandness
And this is also the mark mo show which you should
know because a great podcast you should listen
all the time You can find us on all podcast platforms
and YouTube. I didn't like to introduce my co
-host and son and producer and deliver of all
wonderful things in the beer realm. Aidan Maloney,
how are you? That is quite the intro. Yeah. That
was righteous. I'm pretty tired. I got my ass
kicked last couple days. So thank fuck it's the
weekend. Yeah. I've had about enough. I hear
you. I hear you. It has definitely been enough.
But we're here, and we have a special guest with
us this week, which is pretty exciting. First
official guest, I believe, officially. Because
we do a thing called Fireside Chats, which we
just had Ava Rainwater on, and she killed it.
It was great. So we do have an interview, but
it's kind of its own show. Yeah, different format.
So technically, we've never had a guest on The
Martini Show. This is true. Other than, like,
Kevan? He doesn't really count though. I don't
think he was ever on. No, I don't think so either.
Yeah. I think we screened him out. This is true.
Jaja, only Papa. Only Papa, so there you go.
This is Cast. Everybody knows her as Papa. How
are you? I'm great. How are you guys? Living
the beautiful dream, of course. Living the dream,
for sure. So why don't you say some stuff to
the folks out there? A little bit about yourself.
A little bit about myself. Hi, my name's Kast.
I'm an artist. I have this really cool cat named
Seraphina. I like to go outside. I don't know.
I like beer. I'm excited for the beer. Well,
that is part of what we do. We definitely do
our beer review. We're excited to have you on
board for that, for sure. So we're here in Valpo,
Indiana. A lot of our regulars know that for
sure. And so I met Kast on her birthday. So it's
kind of fun. Like, her birthday is our friend
anniversary, which I like. Magical crossed my
brain the other day. I'm like, oh, that's fun
But at any rate, so when you tell people like
what brought you here to Valpo, like where did
you come from? I Come someplace magical. I'm
assuming I come from Michigan, but it's just
a small town It's not even that magical there.
But but if you travel around a little bit around
there, there's some magical towns I love it.
I think Buchanan's amazing. I love Buchanan,
Michigan. I think it's cute back. Um, the reason
I moved out here Diabolically funny I moved out
here to be near my ex best friend We are not
best friends. I moved out here with my ex when
we were together. We are not together. Everything
that could happen happened. But I've met like
the most amazing friends and people up here.
I've made so many great connections that like
definitely well worth. I love it out here. Excited
for what's coming next though. What's coming
next. What's coming next should be pretty amazing.
May have to do with a certain big city close
to where we're at. Obviously, we'll have more
information on the Mark Mo show. That blows my
mind. You came from somewhere where weed's legal
to somewhere that's not and are planning to go
back where it is. Yeah. Just like Indiana, everyone
I talk to, it's like Indiana is just kind of
the intermediary, like, boy, I can't wait to
leave. Yeah, literally. That's so true. And look.
There are good things here. I love the dunes.
I love hiking around there. It's very cool. I'm
sure we're gonna do that, you know, a little
bit this spring. Like, all that's great. There
are cool things. There are cool bars. We've met
cool people. All that. Largely as states go,
though. Not great. Yeah. I mean, I understand
why they changed the motto from the Crossroads
of America, because it really implies you're
just supposed to drive through. Yeah, put the
pedal on metal, man. Just get out of here. Well,
I read a news story, interestingly enough, about
some guy who lived in Illinois. he was going
to Michigan to make a run. So he was picking
up like, I did pens and carts and all sorts of
stuff for his family, edibles, all that kind
of stuff. So, and the reason he's going to Michigan
is because tax is a heck of a lot cheaper than
it is in Illinois. So he decided to make a run.
So he drives there and he picks up all the stuff
that he's got, which for friends and family,
I guess was considerable. But like, if you're
just like, it's just for him, it'd be like. Dude.
That's a lot. You good? My man's stocking up
for a while. He was stocking up, yeah. And so
he had apparently had everything in his car,
and then he cuts back through Indiana and gets
pulled over. Yep. Did he go to jail? I think
he did. Yeah. Yeah. He got arrested. There was
a lot. It's so petty. Yeah. It's so ridiculous
to me. Right. Yeah. And ladies and gentlemen,
just in case you're one of those people that
make trips to other states for goodies, the answer
is always no, you may not. Look in my car. Right.
That's no. That's your fourth amount of right.
That is your fourth amount of right. Just say
no. Also, like, drive the speed limit, use turn
signals. Drive the speed limit, keep it sealed
up, put it away, and don't smoke on your way
home. Exactly. Come on. Yeah, don't mess up.
Yeah. Yeah, like, if you're going to be carrying
stuff, don't be. Using it while you're going.
Especially enough that, like, you're in felony
territory. Yeah. Because that's the part you
don't play around with. Yeah, it feels serious.
No. You have to be super careful. Yeah. Even
if you have to take back roads home. Yeah. Just
don't mess around. Right. Just don't do it. But
anyway, super excited. This is going to be a
great show. And I want to say a few things before
we get cooking. So Aidan has a YouTube gaming
channel called Aidan Spelled the Right Way. In
case you haven't noticed people spell it the
wrong the wrong way constantly So this is more
than anything. It's like a like a PSA to be like
hey stop it right get some help so PC gaming
content super cool Geo guesser poly bridge observation
duty And more each and every week so many horror
games that he does which is so neat I have not
yet, but I sure you should I will play Yeah,
that'd be cool. She does have a gaming laptop.
That's why you play online. Oh, word. That'd
be cool. That'd be cool as hell. All right. I
think we're doing more collabs. This is fun,
as it happens live on the Mark Mo Show. What
can people expect this week? What do you got
coming? Well, I took a little break. I take breaks
occasionally, like winter holidays, birthdays.
So I took a little break for St. Patrick's Day.
I do have a lot more horror games coming up,
like little indie ones. And then I'll return
to GeoGuessr and all that fun stuff as well.
So it's going to be pretty baller. It will be.
And I know you have a really nice fan base and
people look forward to it. And it's a lot of
fun. So everybody, like, subscribe, share. Hell,
yeah. All that kind of good stuff. Now, there
is a gaming channel that we have. So one day
we decided, hey, we're gonna do a collab and
we're gonna do all the fun improvisational goofy
shit that we do here, but we're gonna game and
we're gonna do it together. And so we have this
AM gaming site. that Aiden came up with. The
logo's cool as shit, so go to YouTube and check
it out. Aiden came up with all that. I had fun
designing it. Oh, dude, it's so cool. If you
know the A &W Root Beer logo, very similar to
that. That's true. And then what's the logo?
It's like chugged down some good content. Chugged
down some good content? Yeah, it's pretty great.
That was all out of my co -host and producer's
brain. Pretty great. So anyway, yeah, we play
a lot of the same games that Aiden plays on his,
but we like to do games where we're not have
to be like so screwed in or so focused because
then we're not interacting as much. It's not
as much fun. So like GeoGuessr is one observation
duty where we can play it and still kind of.
It can be collaborative. It can be, yeah, for
sure. Yeah. So we do have fun. That's A &M Gaming,
and that's on YouTube as well. Yes, and we will
return to playing Dream Daddy as well. Very soon,
yeah. We were hot on that for a while, good five
episodes in a row. And I'm trying to remember
for all of those, I'm trying to think who hit
on us last. That was, what's his face? Oh man,
because we went on a bad date with Joseph on
purpose. On purpose, though. Yeah. Because we
didn't like Joseph. Yeah, we were trying to clown
on him. Right. And then we found out like his
life is a disaster and his wife is a bitch. It
was like his kids are insane. And it was just
like then we felt bad for him. We're trying to
clown out. It was like, oh, man, sorry about
your life, dude. Yeah, it was not good. It was
not good at all. But yeah, so the best so far
has been what's this big country? Yeah, Brian.
Brian. Yeah. We did mini golf with him. Yeah,
it was good. And then he got really excited and
a bunch of cucumbers started popping up all over
the screen. Well, eggplants, yeah. Well, eggplant.
So that was it. Yep. So I was like, ah, dude
wants the bonus. He hasn't done it yet. He hasn't
done it yet. We're playing hard to get on that
one. But at any rate, yeah. So check all that
content out. It's good stuff. Yes. So we're going
to move on. This episode is called Munch. Nope.
March bandness. Hang on. Hang on. Hold up. Hold
up. It's Mark Moe's first day. Time out. First
day? Yeah, first day. I'm calling everybody.
Okay. So, last year at this time, we did a show
called Munch Madness, where we bracketed a whole
bunch of snacks and foods and stuff, and we broke
them all down. Okay, so we got that out of the
way. Jesus Christ. Anyway, so now we decided
to do one called March Band -ness, where we take
bands and musicians from four different genres.
We'll break them down. I think today we'll probably
go from, what do we have, 64? We're going to
go to maybe this week 16, and then we'll finish
up next week. Sure. On that, I think that's...
Yeah, time -dependent, yeah. Yeah, that's how
we're gonna go. So we're gonna start out and
cast, by all means, you may have to be the tiebreaker
on some of these, too. Okay, best birth. Yeah,
and give your votes, do whatever. So we're gonna
break this down. The first category is hip -hop.
And our number one seed in the hip -hop category
is Eminem. No surprise there, I'm assuming. And
then Metro Boomin' at number 16. Thoughts? I
mean... It's not upset city here. I think it's
it's hard to top the goat and no hate to Metro
Yeah, no hate at all, but It's Eminem dude's
entire discography from right forever, and he's
still dropping bangers Yeah, his last album number
one on the charts dude still dudes 50 something.
He's still got it. Yeah. Yeah What's the one
lyric he has a million other white rappers emerge?
Yeah Yeah, kind of. I mean, a lot of people copy
his style. Yeah, they do. And they do that one
year ago. Right. So all right. We're going to
move Eminem on. All right. That's one of our
easier ones, for sure. Then it goes to 8 and
9. So this is going to be pretty interesting
because 8 and 9 are Kendrick fans. So we're definitely
not a fan of one of these individuals. It is
number 8 Drake versus number 9 Common. How mean
can I be? You can be as mean as you are. I hate
Drake, guys. I really hate Drake. You're amongst
friends. That's so baller. I hate Drake. I will
give credit where credit's due. He's always on
the charts. Yeah, he is always on the charts.
Especially in the 2010s. And I can get behind
the earliest music of his. But he has to be doing
stuff, unfortunately, with Gross Nicki Minaj.
Right. um those are the only good songs he made
in my opinion they fell off to me i just can't
i'm good get out of my face yeah yeah i don't
think i like them since degressy high Yeah. That
might have been it for me. Even then he was kind
of a show. Even that was sus, yeah. Oh yeah,
for sure. And Common, one of the best rappers
to come out of Chicago. I love Common, man. He's
great. That dude's so cool. Yeah. He's so cool.
I don't know who that is. Oh, you're going to
have to look up Common. OK. Common's good. God,
what was that one song he did with John Legend?
Oh yeah, that's right. Was it the movie Selma?
I believe so. Okay, I think that's what it was.
It's so good. Yeah. Alright, so are we taking
comment over Drake? I think, I think so. I think
Drake's unceremonious massive L. That's good.
While trying to beef with Kendrick, which was
just a bad idea. Literally embarrassing. Yeah,
like what's that one phrase? Your arms are just
too short to box with God. I mean, that's pretty
much it. We have a fun 5 -12 matchup. As you
know in basketball, that's a very common upset
round. 12s beat 5s a lot. Not so sure here. Number
five, Mac Miller. Number 12, Big Sean. I love
Mac Miller Yeah, I love Mac Miller literally
baby. Love him. Yeah, he's a G. Yeah, and Big
Sean Big Sean's great. Yeah Like every other
project he does is kind of corny, you know Mac
Miller is so artistic and I just feel like he's
had like so many different types of styles and
he's so unique right and When he was alive, he
always surrounded himself with like really good
talented people. Yes, not that Big Sean doesn't
But it's got to be Mac. Yeah, it has to be. Yeah.
Well, that's unanimous then, for sure. And I've
been listening to a lot more of Mac Miller because
my writing buddy here is the DJ as well. So we've
been listening to a lot of Mac Miller, which
is good. Number four, Post Malone, number 13,
J Cole. Now, here's where I think an upset might
be doing. And I know you like Post. Posty is
excellent. I thought Stoney was an excellent
album. Beer Wogs and Bentley's was fun. But I
don't know, the way his newer music and the people
he's hanging out with kind of screams culture
vulture to me. Okay. And Jay Cole is kind of
a legend in his own right. Right. So I'm thinking
Offset. All right. What do you think? I can get
behind that. You can get behind an Offset? Okay,
I'm not gonna fight it. And I get where you're
coming from with him. But it's so hard to kind
of read into that, really, because I think artists
do try to reinvent themselves. They do try to
do other things. I mean, we remember where Taylor
Swift started, right? Sure. This is true. She
needs to go back. I'm mad. I don't like her,
but like she only did. I don't even like country
music, really. That's like the only thing she
was good at, in my opinion. Yeah. I mean, she's
doing good. Like, it's working out. She's rich,
but I just don't. We're gonna get massive engagement
from Taylor fans and it's all gonna be like the
Swifties Swifties are locked and loaded. Yeah
We've got number six number 11 number six Travis
Scott number 11 chance a rapper. Oh, man I'm
leaning chance me too. Okay, because um, first
of all, I think trust I don't know I got weeded
out when that happened at the concert and they
feel like they didn't that's not like a I mean,
it was a big deal. I'm pretty sure somebody died.
Yeah. But I feel like they definitely needed
to handle that better. And also, Chance Rapper
is a very unique artist as well. I feel like
he has very unique songs. Yeah. And he's on Chicago.
Yeah. And he does so much for the community.
I do love that about him. So we're going to go
with an 11 -6 upset. We're going with Chance.
And now I'm interested to see who he's going
to go up against. Number three, Future and number
14, Playboi Carti. Man, I like Future. I don't
like Cardi. Now you don't like Cardi? No? No,
I'm leaning Future as well. It's a pretty solid
three seed. Oh, for sure. Oh, there's no doubt.
Is that trash can, like, public use? Oh, yeah.
Sorry, a little background on Studio. Yeah, we
go from talking about Playboy Cardi to trash.
I don't know if there's a correlation. Just saying.
Sometimes the subconscious makes connections.
I think so, that. That's fair. All right, the
last bracket here, Kanye West 7, Tyler the Creator
10. Oh, that's so tall. No, I'm ready. I'm ready.
It's Tyler for me. It's Tyler for me. I love
Tyler. It's for you guys to pick, but I love
Tyler. Kanye is like an artistic man as well.
He's a little bonkers, but he's artistic. He's
bonkers. I heard he's kind of walking back on
some of the crazy stuff he's done. Is it true
or not? Didn't he say... Hitler didn't do anything
wrong. Yeah That's fair. There's some things
you can't unsay, right? Because I'm scared you
still think that I feel like you're just changing
your mind because you're right, right? That's
and also a lot of his like nothing beats his
original stuff Right from the 2010 legendary.
Yeah, it's ex like one of the best rappers to
come out of Chicago. Yeah Well, what has he done
recently? Yeah, besides piss a lot of people
have besides being evil, right evil so Tyler's
great. I thought Chroma Copia was an awesome
album. Literally. I love goblins. I love sandwiches.
I thought the whole album, Chroma Copia, was
good. I love all of them. Yeah, I think that's
an upset for me. All right. All right. So Tyler,
Tyler whoops Kanye, which brings us to our last
one. Number two, Kendrick Lamar. Number 15, Chris
Brown. This is so easy. Fuck Chris Brown. Fuck
Chris Brown. I knew that. I knew that. So we
have Kendrick moving on. So what we're going
to do is we're going to go through these matchups
till, and then we're going to move on to the
next genre. So advancing on M &M is against Common.
Ah, see now it gets tougher. Yeah. I got a lean
M &M though. Common's great. M &M's a goat though.
I don't even can name a common song, so I'm not
gonna disagree. Unfortunately, I don't know who
common is. I'm lacking in knowledge. Nah, that's
okay. Eminem is moving on. Mac Miller, J. Cole.
Oh no. Oh no. Do you guys have any thoughts?
I'm torn. I'm torn on that one. Well, I gotta
go Mac Miller just because I've been consuming
so much. Yeah, same. I've been consuming so much.
So much lately. The lucky Dominic Pike isn't
up here. Dude, seriously, we've definitely been
heavy on him for sure. Mac Miller, are we doing
it? You guys got two votes for Mac. I was torn,
so that's fine with me. Okay, we got Mac Miller
moving on. It's good to have you, J. Cole. Good
to have you. Nice knowing you. Chance the Rapper
and Future. Oh, man. That's tough. Yeah. That's
tough. I... Is there anything that separates
them? Or differentiates their music. I'm leaning
future. Yeah. Because he's more consistent with
like banger after banger. Yeah. Where I think
Chance's last album, I was like, it's fine, you
know? And I just gotta go future. Like I love
that Chance was like very outspoken about like
being anti -music label. Yeah, oh yeah. Like
releasing independently, which was cool as shit.
I gotta go future. okay yep all right uh the
last one Tyler the creator and Kendrick Lamar
I'm so sorry Tyler it's gotta be it's gotta be
Kendrick for me that's that's my vote yeah that's
just a tough matchup for Tyler for sure that
is very difficult it's brutal yeah I mean Kendrick's
kind of the goat and that halftime show was really
good is amazing yeah so okay well Tyler, you're
awesome. I'll miss you, Tyler. So we're going
to move on. So next week, we're going to have
Eminem against Mac Miller and Future against
Kendrick. That's all. Holy. Yeah, that's elite.
That's elite status. All right, now we've got
metal and we've got hard rock. I know, heavy
metal and hard rock. They got a million subgenres
in there. So this is a very hard thing to do.
And I'm certain some of you are going to be like,
hey, this band, that band. I know. whatever.
We had to pick 16. We had to pick. Yeah. So number
one Metallica against number 16 Dayseeker. I
mean that's a really good one seed. Yeah. You
gotta go Metallica. Yeah I'm so glad you said
that. Yeah. Yeah and like I think Dayseeker they're
really like coming on as a band like they're
they're hitting their stride. Yeah. So I don't
know five years from now maybe a different conversation
right uh but um yeah Metallica is just they're
the goats of work they do for sure um eight nine
match up nine inch nails against system of a
down that's tough got a nine inch nails vote
I do love me some nine inch nails man Trent Reznor
is a goat he's great I'm torn. How are you? I'm
really torn. Yeah? I lean system of it down,
but I totally see nine -inch nails. Right. I
mean, because he's brilliant. Yeah. Yeah. But
like... I see where you're coming from. I see
why you're torn. Yeah. Oh yeah. Completely. So...
What's your vote, Markwell? Yeah, what's you?
Oh, Nine Inch Nails. Nine Inch Nails. I love
them. Yeah. They're great. And like I said, I
just think there's brilliance in what Trent Reznor
does. Yeah. You know, even when he, because he
composes like music for movies and stuff, and
it's usually just baller. It's so good. All right,
we're gonna, we're gonna, in a very close matchup,
we're gonna take Nine Inch Nails. 512, 5 Slayer,
12 Avenged Sevenfold. Oh, man. I don't... I don't
know if this 512 is an upset. I mean, Avenged
Sevenfold, they're still creating new music.
This is true. And they're going on tour. Slayer
goes on tour too, but I don't know if they're
making any new music. Yeah. I've only heard of
Avenged Sevenfold. Yeah? I've never heard of
Slayer. That's fair. So we looking at a 12 -5
upset potentially? Could be. But I mean, Slayer
is like... I don't know. I mean, Metallica and
Slayer are in the same genre. They're both in
thrash metal. This is true. Mm. But they're the
goats of their... Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I
don't know. I don't know. This is a tough one.
More than well. Yeah, I know. Am I the one that's
gonna break this? Sure. Yeah. I don't have a
valid opinion, because I don't... I don't know.
All right. I'm gonna take a venge. Yeah. Big
upset. And an upset, for sure. We have... That's
diabolical. Before you even get there. Before
you even get there. Number four Foo Fighters.
Number 13 Pierce the Veil. That's tough. Another
band we've been listening to a lot. Wait, I have
an opinion. Oh, okay. Because we got Dave Grohl
in there, right? Yeah. Not to be like bringing
things from outside again, but... Didn't he have
that affair and have like a whole daughter outside
of his marriage? Oh sure, yeah. So for me, Pierce
of Elwing. Because why did he do that? And I
was such a big fan of Foo Riders, and I still
am. But why would he do that? Because Dave just
seemed like such a cool dude. Everyone was hyping
him up, they were like, what a lovely man. And
then all of a sudden they were like, oh my gosh,
he has a daughter outside of marriage, like just
recently. Yeah. And if we're bringing in outside
influence, like we did with Kanye and Chris Brown.
That's fair, because that did count. Fair's fair.
Sorry, Foo Fighters. Yeah, no, for real. Wow.
Love the music, but... Pierce the Veil with enough
so we had two big upsets here. Yeah. Everyone's
bracket is broken by now. It's broken. It's crushed.
We have number six Tool, number 11, Korn. That's
tough also. Mm -hmm. Because those are two very
different subgenres. Yeah. Yes. I'm leaning Korn.
Do we go another upset? No, because Jonathan
is so unique in his beatboxing when they're doing
their songs. Yeah. Because it's not common in
metal. Right. But when he does it, for the very
first time I heard him do that, I was like, whoa,
what? I'm like, what just happened? Right. Did
he just beatbox in a metal song? And I loved
it. But Tool, you literally have every member
of the band that is elite at their position.
This is true. Mean just elite drumming. Maybe
the best drummer in period. Yeah, I mean he's
so Mathematically precise time signatures that
it's crazy and as a drone you have to be perfect,
right? And there's drummers from other bands
like Mike Portnoy and some other guys and they
try To do what he does and they're just like
this. Yeah, yeah So I think just from the musicianship
I've been listening to a lot of tool with my
friend Jess Gotta go Tool. I kind of do. Yeah.
I kind of do. What are your thoughts? My thoughts...
I mean, this is very hard to tell. I know you
don't like making decisions. Yeah. You kind of
have to make one. Yeah. Okay, I'm gonna go Tool.
Yeah? Yeah. Okay. Korn is so good. So good. They
are good. But Tool feels very unique and, like
you said, like precise, mathematical, like with
that genius. They are. And I have not seen them
live yet. Definitely want to see them live. Yeah,
like I think that show would be unbelievable
number three disturbed number 14 Megadeth I'm
feeling upset here. Are ya I like Megadeth Yeah,
I mean I do too. Obviously I've seen them many
times live But I also kind of hung out with the
guitar player for disturbed and he signed a record
for me. So that's kind of baller So he kind of
yeah I don't know if people say that he's swaying
his vote. I mean, we are accepting biases today.
We do. We do accept bribes. Yeah, right. We say
that every week. People send us their DMs, and
they want them read. Well, you know, if there's
something in my hand, and it's green, maybe we'll
answer your question. It has a blue strip on
it. That'd be even cooler. Oh, that'd be great.
Yeah. Yeah, Benji. Yeah. Or 10. I'm not greedy.
So Disturb Megadeth, what's your thoughts? I
can't put in a valid opinion because I can't
even name a song from either of them. From either
of them? Nope. Dang. So we've got a hung jury.
Yeah. We do, but I think we both kind of said
Megadeth, yeah. Yeah. All right. Sorry, just
another upset in metal. That's crazy. Number
seven, Rage Against the Machine, number 10, Linkin
Park. That's evil. That is evil. First of all,
that's evil. Well, I think Linkin Park now is
a different band with Dreman's Passing. This
is true. Just a different band. This is true.
And I even think Linkin Park is more alt -alternative
than Heavy Metal. They've gone that way. Yeah.
But Linkin Park was heavy when they first started.
This is true. They would probably be in the new
metal category if I had to take a guess. I would
agree. Oh, man. I love Linkin Park. I think I
gotta go rage. I gotta go Rage. That's valid,
but I don't know who they are, so go ahead and
do Rage. I don't even know who that is. Yeah,
we have to educate you on Rage. I think you would
like them. They're, you know, a band that named
that. They're very angry about many things, uh,
social and whatnot. Yeah. Oh, okay. They sound
interesting. Yeah. What's their best lyric? Probably,
F you, I won't do what you tell me. F you, I
won't do what you tell me. Now, funny story there.
I used to have a radio show. We go off the highway
a lot. So I used to have a radio show called
After Hours. We'll return someday, I promise
you folks. I still have people hitting up my
socials on After Hours, like, hey, it's like,
yeah, I know. So I'm doing my show and I record
it from home. And I put the show together and
it was actually a show after the events that
happened in Minnesota with Floyd. Yep. And so
I did this show about like Black Pride and all
this kind of stuff. And I put I put some hip
hop, I put some R &B, I put some stuff, but like
a lot of impactful music. Right. Rage was in
there. And so I put that song in there and I
send it off to a radio station manager. Don't
think anything of it. Now, the day the show is
going to air, I'm like, oh, my God. I did not
put the radio edit version in there. And being
on the radio, you have to adhere to FCC regulations.
Now, FCC is not going to like, fuck you, I won't
do what you tell me over and over and over and
over. I'm like, oh shit. Oh no. So I do have
the radio edit version. I make the quick change.
I send that to the station manager. And I said,
hey, don't hear that first one. We're going to
be in trouble. Don't do it. I said, the second
one, radio edit. Oh, no, no, no. He knew the
song. He's like, oh no, it's fine. Well. guess
who didn't make the change i'm sitting there
listening to the show live in my living room
having a beer and i literally spit the beer out
i'm like oh no oh shit so i literally text uh
greg i'm like um you didn't swap that song out
i guess it was nice knowing you i guess wvlp
is gone bye yeah so uh yeah that I wonder if
some like proud moments some boomers some gray
hairs just like had a heart attack listening
to that show yeah I'm sure they did oh well Gertrude
have you heard what they're airing I can't believe
it Reginald um number two iron maiden number
15 deftones I love me some deftones but it's
been real deftones it's been real I'm outvoting
you guys. What the fuck? Oh my god. Now, to be
fair, we've also listened to a lot of Deftones
lately. I love me some Deftones, but Iron Maiden's
kinda like - Yeah, it's like Iron Maiden's taking
the win, guys. That was a tough scene. Yeah,
you guys looked at it and were like, I'm like,
aw man. I'm so sorry. It's okay. But you love
some Deftones. Oh yeah, I love Deftones. I used
to have the cute shirt with the cat on it. from
that one album but i think i destroyed it i cut
the collar too long like i cut the shoulders
off and it was like falling i was like no that's
devastating all right so iron maiden's gonna
move on uh we have metallica and nine inch nails
well oh boy i i know oh boy trent yeah so he's
hitting the dusty trail is what you're saying
i mean Okay, so Metallica moves on. I think so.
Are we kind of in agreement? I think so. Now,
this was upset. It's a 12 seed and a 13 seed.
Avenge sevenfold, Pierce the Veil. I gotta go
Pierce the Veil. Yeah. Yeah? Is that, is that
Papa? That's easy for me. Is that Papa approved?
Yeah, that's Papa approved. Pierce the Veil.
13 seed, moving on. Moving on, yeah, for sure.
Tula gets Mega Death. Oh no. Ooh, boy. That's
tough. That's super tough. That's way tough.
I don't know. I don't either. I don't know what
my dad thinks in general. We'll have to educate
you, Papa. Yeah, they're another thrash band.
And they're still making music today. Yeah. And
pretty good. I think this album is their last
album, though, if I remember correctly. So they're
getting ready to hit the dusty trail. Man, these
are two. This is, this is tough. This is a tough
matchup. Oh, can I abstain? No, no, I don't think
you can. Oh, man. Oh, you know what? I love a
good upset. I'll go 14 seed Megadeth. That's
my vote. Oh, OK. I know you don't know Megadeth,
but you know Tool. Yeah. Yeah, that's it. That's
all I know. That's all you know. So I feel like,
yeah, I don't feel like I can give valid and
great opinions. That's fair. And like, if I were
like, obsessed with Tool, but I just know of
them and I know some music by them. So I can't
even be like, die hard for them. Yeah. I think
we've reached a difficult situation here. Yeah.
Sounds like two Tool votes and one Megadeth,
so. OK, we're going to take Tool. And you have
to know how hard that is, because I see Megadeth
so much. And I'm like, we're starring Megadeth.
I know. I love those dudes. I love them. and
then this is tough to uh rage against the machine
versus iron maiden damn yeah that's hard i mean
well i'll go back to the discography mention
of like iron maiden's just done it all they've
done it all i mean when you're when you're a
heavy metal band and you go to rio de janeiro
and you play in front of 125 ,000 people. Right.
And you go to Japan and you sell the Japan Dome
out like five nights in a row. Right. That's
crazy. Yeah. I mean, these like rage I think
is more impactful, especially like if you're
talking like a more urban scene, social issues.
Right. Here in the United States. But if you're
looking at more of just a global phenomenon,
it's amazing. Yeah. It's amazing. It has to be.
So looking to next week, we have Metallica versus
Pierce the Veil and Tool versus Iron Maiden.
That's insane. Damn. That's that's gonna be that's
gonna be interesting. Next one up is alt slash
grunge. So we put them in the same one. The first
matchup and I know this will not be difficult
at all for Aiden. We have Green Day versus Muse.
Yeah. You're just like yeah. Thanks Muse but.
I'm voting Green Day. Green Day? Okay, that's
a unanimous one there for sure. I'm already ready
for the next one. I know. Are you? Are you sure
you're ready for that one? It is Jack White versus
Weezer. Oh man. Oh man, the talent. Because you
can say Jack White slash the White Stripes. This
is true. This is true. The talent of Jack White
is insane. When I saw him at Riot Fest, I lost
my mind. Yeah. But Weezer's such a cute little
band. I'm obsessed. I've been listening to a
lot of Foolish Father, Tragic Girl. I've been
adding everything back to my playlist. Have you?
Yeah. Yeah, they're just, they're just, they're
just, you're right. I mean, they're so weird,
but it's like, they're cool. I can't help but
vote Weezer. I'm voting Weezer. I'm so sorry,
Jack White. That was tough. That was a tough
matchup. Number five, Dropkick Murphy. Number
12, Allison Chains. How dare you? That was rude,
right? This is one of the toughest 512s, I think.
That was rude. In the whole bracket. Right. Oh,
man. I gotta go Alice in Chains, though. I'm
sorry, Dropkick. My vote is Alice in Chains.
I don't know, Dropkick. So Alice in Chains has
got to be more popular in that aspect. At least
for me. I'm so hurt. Yeah. I'm so hurt right
now. I can't even... Do I even know you people?
Why would you do this one? Why did you put that
one there? Kind of on me. The next one is bad
too. That's horrible for me. That is bad. The
next one is Red Hot Chili Peppers at the Four
versus the Cure at 13. Damn. Yeah. That is not
the notes I'm looking at. Really? Yeah. Number
13 on my end still says Deftones. That is hilarious.
Maybe the Deftones redemption arc. Right. They're
like, we're gonna advance in some category. Yeah,
it's red hot chili peppers and a cure. I... I
think I'm leaning red hot chili peppers. I know
I'm leaning red hot chili peppers. I'm just hurt.
Yeah. Okay. That is totally valid. Red hot. We'll
move on. Number 6, 21 Pilots. Number 11, Royal
Blood. Man. Sorry, Aiden. You gotta go 21 Pilots,
though. You have to. I agree. They've just been
elite the last like 10 years. Yeah. Okay, they're
moving on. The next, I know, Papa, I know. This
is... Pearl Jam at the three, the Strokes 14.
Wow. Literally, like, this might be the hardest
one for me. I know, because we've listened to
some Strokes. We listened to some Pearl Jam lately,
too, a little bit. I got to put my vote in for
Pearl Jam. Yeah. But I totally understand the
heft of this decision. I have to go to Strokes,
but I love Pearl Jam. I have my dad's. It was
from his, like, old CD, and I ripped it out.
And it's like... cardboard piece, but it has
like their cute little mini little arts on there.
Yeah, that's cool. Put it on my fridge. Well,
Aiden Thomas. Yes. I think we have an upset.
Oh, no. I think we have an upset. Devastating
news today. That was kind of and trust me, like
I had all the Pearl Jam CDs when they came out
and like I was all about it. And Eddie Vedder
is a Chicago guy. So I get all that. But it's
like it's like a last second buzzer beater. Yeah.
So we're going to take the strokes in an upset.
I know half the people out there are like, you're
high, dude. Well, no, not yet. But we'll work
on that. Allegedly. Allegedly, not in the state
of Indiana. Anyway, number seven, Smashing Pumpkins,
number 10, Highly Suspect. I know Smashing Pumpkins
or Chicago Band also. I'm going Highly Suspect.
I've gotten into them quite a bit recently. The
lead singer of Smashing Pumpkins just sounds
like he's whining at me. And I'm like, please
stop. I love when men whine in their music. I
love a whiny man in his music. Love a whiny man.
No, for real. It looks like we've got a hung
jury as well. We do. Yeah, my thoughts are pumpkins.
Pumpkin. I don't know. What do you think? What
do you think? I put my vote in for highly suspect.
So it's up to you. It's up to me? Break it. Damn
it. What is your heart desire? We wanted Papa
to be the tiebreaker. Yeah. And now it's... Yeah,
girl. Oh, you make it. Yeah, and I kind of seeded
everything. I deserve all of this and more. I'm
gonna go pumpkins on that one, and that's hard
because I do like highly suspect a lot. It's
understandable. Number two, you two. Number 15,
chemical romance. You know, I like you two. I
like MCR a little more. I don't even know who
U2 is. You said, you know? No, I don't. I don't
even know who that is. Fair point. They are another
one of those legendary bands that just sells
out stadiums wherever they go. Yeah, U2, they
just did what's the big ball one in the Sphere
in Vegas. Like that would have been amazing.
Yeah. And they're Irish. They got kind of poppy,
but once again, it's like a band that's experimented
with a lot of different stuff. Yeah. But they've
pretty much been in that genre for the most part.
Yeah. I got to vote MCR. I think I'm being outvoted.
And this is a big upset again. This hurts my
soul. I'll live. I'll be fine. Really, it'll
be good. Am I going to go emo -yance? I type
fine as well. So all right, we're going to go
to Green Day versus Weezer. Oh, dude. Oh, I didn't
think about that part. Oh, no. Not gonna lie,
these are all kind of, these are difficult now.
Yeah. Yes, they are. I gotta put my vote in for
Green Day just because, once again, their discography
and just the hype they always produce. I think
they just headlined Coachella recently. Yeah.
Well, they opened for the Super Bowl, too. Yeah.
I gotta go Green Day. Weezer's great, but I gotta
go Green Day. What do you think it cast? You
go ahead. You go first. I like both. I think
early in his discography, I feel like Billy was
a little whiny. Although you love whining. We've
established that. But I think Weezer, in terms
of their musicianship, I think they're better
musicians. I think it's probably top to bottom
a better band. And they just headlined Riot Fest.
Yeah. I'm going Weezer. I'm going Weezer and
an upset. I also am going Weezer. I do understand
the Green Day completely, though. That was very
difficult because I was like, this feels evil
to do. That's fair. That's why this is so difficult.
The number one seed gets knocked away. Gets knocked
away in the second round by Weezer. By Weezer?
By Weezer. It's OK, guys. Don't feel bad. I'm
trying to think. Oh, it's Jess that hates Weezer.
Like, she hates Weezer with a passion of a thousand
songs. There's no reason to hate Weezer. Right.
They're just goofy little guys going around.
Right. Well, nerdy dudes just having fun playing
some instruments. I like the Wiggles butt music.
The Wiggles. Where are the Wiggles on this thing?
We should have put them in there. Okay. Alice
in Chains. I almost said Dropkick Murphy just
out of whatever, but it's fine. It's fine. We're
good. Alice in Chains and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
I gotta go Alice in Chains on this one. I'm so
biased, but... Uh -huh. You gotta let your bias
flag fly. Yeah, oh for sure. Well, they arguably
have one of my favorite songs all the time. I
think Nutshell is a work of art. Yeah. There's
so much pain in that. Yep. And he ended up killing
himself, obviously, but like that song you're
just like, whoa, I feel that dude. Yeah. But
Red Hot Chili Copper says Under the Bridge and
they kind of, they're talking about the same
shit too, so. All right, Papa. Red Hot. Red Hot.
Red Hot Chili Peppers, moving on. I love them
so bad. Yeah. I do too. And I think it's hard
because they've kind of been around almost as
long as one another. Yeah. So when you look at
all the discography, although I think Red Hot's
done more. And that's not Alice in Chains' fault.
This is true. Because their lead singer killed
himself, basically. But that was a tough one.
I knew that'd be tough. 21 Pilots in the Strokes.
Oh man. Oh, Papa. I don't know. Papa knows. Papa
knows. Papa knows what's going. It's gotta be
21. I think so too. I'm sorry. I know. I know
how the fate was gonna happen. Yep. Can I put
the Stokes? Yeah, my typist. I'll miss you, the
Stokes. Give this to the Stokes. Okay, and last
one in that category, pumpkins in my chemical
romance. Pumpkins in your chemical romance. I'm
going MCR again. Wow, another upset. Yeah. That's
a big upset, dude. It's a huge upset. That's
crazy. Wow. I don't know. I would have to take
Pumpkins in that one. Tiebreaker. Oh my god.
All up to you. No pressure. The entire show rests
upon us. This is like a really, really difficult
one. Like, actually. I guess I feel like... I'm
gonna have to go Mike, I won't go romance, and
I feel evil for doing that. Whoa, that's the
upset. Wow. Let's go boys. I love the Smashing
Pumpkins. I literally, yesterday there was this
girl on TikTok and she posted something, I don't
know what it was, but they were talking about,
oh, there's a little Uzi Vert. They were like,
he's doing Lala, I think, but he's not the headliner.
That's insane. They were like, who's Smashing
Pumpkins even? I was like, what? Wow. What do
you mean? That's an insane take. I know. That's
viral on TikTok. It's not even just because TikTok.
They're on the radio. Your dads listen to it.
It's viral online. How have you never heard of
that? Yeah. And if you see their headlining,
why not listen to their music a little bit? Yeah,
be like, oh, let me see if these are, yeah, if
I like this. So our matchups for next week, Weezer
against Red Hot Chili Peppers, 21 Pilots, and
My Chemical Romance. Damn. That first one's evil.
That is evil. Damn evil. That's so evil. We're
now going to go to top 40. Now, before we do
it, I'm going to say something. Because as we
started our show today it entered my brain space
that I left one person off of the top 40 list
Oh, no, that should have maybe been number one
and I left off Miley Cyrus. Oh So so no party
in the USA. No, that's okay. I can see you you
can delete from here Call it. Call it right now.
I don't like Ed Sheeran. Who don't you like?
Ed Sheeran. I don't like Ed Sheeran. You don't
like Ed? Or Justin Timberlake, honestly. Papa's
over here looking at the notes with a sniper
scope. Yeah, for real. Get rid of Ed. Justin
Timberlake, wasn't he like, just not at the petty,
but wasn't he like, when he got arrested or something,
he was like, I'm Justin Timberlake. I'm like,
bro, and I hate you. Shut up. Okay. Wow. Miley
Cyrus just did a Tanya Harding. Whoa, take off
in the air. That's crazy. Why? Yeah, he's gone.
He's done. Okay, Timber Fake, you're out. So
now we're on to the top 40. And we have number
one, Taylor Swift. Number 16, Katy Perry. That's
an easy number one for me. It's gotta be Tay
-Tay, yeah? It's gotta be Taylor. Even though
I know you don't like her poppy. Mm -hmm. I see
where you guys are coming from. I see where you
guys are coming from I think she only I only
like her country music and I don't even like
country music But I can see you. Okay. I just
love Katy Perry's old ass albums. I agree. They're
good. I do agree. They're fun. They were fun.
I don't know why she switched up to Dark Horse
and whatever happened after that I don't know
but she had great music going on before. I was
literally listening to it this morning. Yeah.
I woke up and I turned on my music and I was
playing from last night. That's pretty baller.
I think this one's super hard. Number eight,
Dua Lipa. Number nine, Halsey. Damn. I gotta
lean Dua Lipa on this one. And I like Halsey.
I like all the collabs she does. Yeah. And the
fact that she did that one song with MGK. And
I was like, oh my god, do a rock album. Please
do a rock album, because I think she could pull
it off. I'm Dua Lipa. OK. I can, like, I can,
yeah, that makes sense. Halsey was good, like,
when I was, like, 15. And she's not bad now.
It's just I'm just not. like the biggest fan
anymore, so I get it. That's fair. And she's
doing less lately because she's also been into
a lot of social stuff, too, and like out marching
like every day and all kinds of stuff. So which
is great. Yeah, right. But OK, so we're going
to go to Alipa. Sabrina Carpenter at five, Billie
Eilish at 12. Damn, that is kind of hard. Yeah.
Billie Eilish is great, though. She is great.
She is great. Well, I think in a certain way,
she's kind of revolutionary because nobody sang
like her before she started. Right. And now there's
a lot of people copying her. When she started
so young, she started, she's like, I think my
age, maybe a year younger. So she started when
she was like 15. I remember that's when I saw
like her blowing up, blowing up was when she
was like 15. Sure. Oh, man. And I love Sabrina.
Like, I do love Sabrina. When I was like 13,
I would listen to her Disney Channel music alone,
like back before she even had like the career
going crazy for music. She was just like producing
small music for me. Yeah. I'm leaning upset.
I'm going Billie Eilish. That's my vote. Yeah,
I'm on the fence. I'm on the fence with this
one. Because I also like Sabrina Carpenter. We've
been listening to her. Yeah, we've been listening
to it. And then she's been on us and Alan. I
find her very funny. Yeah, she is so silly. Oh,
man. The pressure's on you guys. God, I like
Billie Eilish too. But I'm leaning Sabrina. Okay,
so logically I would lean Sabrina because I want
to but I have to go Billy because of artistic
matter Like I love Sabrina personally like I
love her music I think it's so fun, but I do
understand the artistic of the artist disability
She is artistically like a genius and like the
range to go from bad guy to like happier than
ever. Yeah with that. Yeah. She does. And I love
that she makes all her music with her brother.
I know. I think that's very cute. It's so cool.
All right. Number four, Chapel Rowan. And if
I had never heard Pink Pony Club again, I'd actually,
I'd be OK. And nothing against that song. When
the song first came out, I'm like, that is such
a good song. And then like weeks later, I'm like,
let's not do that. Yeah. Overplayed. Yeah. So
overplayed. Not her fault, obviously. Yeah. And
number 13, Tate McCray. I'll go Chapel Rowan.
Me too. On this one, yeah. Tate's like new, very
new, I think. Room to grow. Room to grow, but
Chappell's a beast here, so I think she's gonna
get it. Chappell's kind of not too fairly new,
but I feel like, I know she was making music
a few years ago, but I feel like she blew up
very, very fast. With that latest album, for
sure. Oh yeah. I almost left this guy off the
list, too. And I did it, and I'm like, oh my
god, this guy has it the most. like album sold
right worldwide and i almost left him off bad
bunny number six ed sheeran number 11 and not
you trying to leave out mr he's so influential
he is so influential and ed sheeran is like a
worldwide blockbuster hit making guy and just
all of ginger all yeah all of his music i'm like
that's okay it's very okay very okay gingerness
scares me because i don't like his music and
the way he looks when i i don't know i i can't
do it i can't get i can't get behind the music
i just i can't do that bad bunny i'll tell you
that halftime show i switched over to kid rock
because i tell you right now he's he's he's a
musician I had a table that when their kids were
watching the Bad Bunny up on the screen and they
blasted their cell phone with the Kid Rock one
right next to the parents' faces so the kids
could hear it too and they were just like, looked
miserable. I was like, why are you doing this?
That's so cringe. It was so cringe. Yeah, Bad
Bunny. Bad Bunny. Yeah, literally. Unanimous.
The ginger goes down. You're okay with that?
Yes. As a representative ginger? Yeah. He's not
included here. You kicked him out of the club?
Yeah. Number three, Miley Cyrus, who recently
added, by the way. Funny story. It was better.
Number 14, Benson Boone. Miley Cyrus, 100 % for
me. Yeah, I did Miley Cyrus. Yeah, you have to
do it. You have to do it. I don't know. He's
got the one song I really like, and he's known
for back -flipping off piano or something. The
only thing I know is Moonbeam. Yeah. I don't
even know that. No, Miley's too much for Benson.
Benson, why when I say Benson do I think of a
cartoon? That's a regular show. Regular show.
Benson, the gumball. Yes, I love that show. God,
it was so good. It's neither here nor there.
Number seven, Lady Gaga, number 10, Bruno Mars.
Difficult to say, the least. I gotta go Lady
Gaga on this one. I know Bruno is a baller, and
his music's great. But Lady Gaga's awesome. She's
great. She wore a meat dress. She wore a meat
dress. So weird. So weird. Yeah. I love that.
I love how weird that was. And like her favorite
band is Metallica, or Iron Maiden, so. Yeah.
That's a sway. Good artists like good artists.
That is very true. Game respects game. Yeah.
Yeah. And she performed on stage with Metallica,
I believe. Yeah. So I love that she's so versatile
that way. Right. Respects a lot of the different
kinds of music. I think she also performed at,
what was it? Who sings My Kind of Town? Oh, Sinatra?
Yeah, she performed at Sinatra's, I don't know
if it was his passing away party. Oh, yeah. Remember
that? No, it wouldn't have been his passing.
He's been gone for a while. Like an anniversary?
No, I think, no, you're talking, oh God, my brain
is not gonna work here. I remember she did great.
Right, yeah. I'm sure. when we take our break,
you don't think of who this artist is. But it's
that genre, like the crooners and that sort of
stuff. So I will definitely think of it. So we
move in Lady Gaga. Any thoughts there, Papa?
I respect you guys. I would, I can, I would guess
I was like my last three seconds of voting in
my head. I was like, I'm going to have to go
Lady Gaga, but it's just difficult because I
think Bruno Mars for a very long time did a lot
of like creative music and that shit went like.
Extremely extremely popular like for all fucking
age groups. That is true. Yeah, the only thing
I hated though was Uptown Funk Yeah, I can say
that that they dropped him two points. That's
why That's totally fair Last one number two Harry
Styles number 15 Adele I have thoughts here Yeah,
I've got thoughts too. I'm curious. I'm not saying
anything my my thoughts are number one I think
Harry Styles a really good actor I've seen him
in things, he's really good. And I've seen him
on SNL, he's really funny. Now that aside, he
has to make music to be in this category. Sure.
I think he's overrated. I'm coming out to say
it, I think Harry Styles is overrated. Adele
is amazing. I don't get it. And right, and Adele,
she hasn't done a lot lately, but like when she
opens her mouth and things come out, it's like,
oh my god. Everything she does is amazing though.
Right. I'm upset city here, I'm going Adele.
Any thoughts? What are your thoughts on Harry
Styles? I don't really even have a preference.
I wasn't a one -directioner So I didn't even
listen to Harry on his own. I just think he's
Like he's got cool fashion. That's it. So that's
literally okay. So acting in fashion. I think
we agree Yeah, great music All right, so we're
doing it are we doing the thing we're doing the
thing Adele with the upset now that that moves
to Taylor Swift and Dua Lipa Damn. Yeah. I am
not necessarily a Taylor Swift fan, per se. But
I respect her writing. Yeah. A lot. Like, I can
look at her lyrics and be like, oh, I felt that
shit. Yeah. But then she's also the one to hop
on her private jet just to go fetch a pen to
do the writing. Yeah. So I'm going to Aliva.
Didn't she, like, pay her staff, like, ridiculous
amounts of money? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. So she,
I mean, she's wealthy, but she shares from what
I've heard. Yeah. Yeah. Did you say you went
to Dua Lipa? I went to Dua Lipa. Okay. I know
which way Papa's going. Yeah. Yeah, we going
upset here? Yeah. Another number one seed falls.
Wow. That's that's shocking. Now we really made
the Swifties mad. Oh, yeah. No friendship bracelets
for the show. Billy Eilish, Chaperone. I'm going
Billy on this one. I think me too. That's hard
though. Yeah. Okay. I was thinking chapel, but
that's fine. That's fine. I like her. I put her
on the list. It's fine. It's good. I'm not the
little cartoon dog sitting sipping my coffee
in the building right now. It's totally fine.
We have Bad Bunny against Miley Cyrus. Oh no.
Wow. It's like how many, because I'm leaning
Miley Cyrus, but then you've got the Bad Bunny
halftime show, which was just... Excellent. Right.
Literally. So does it push him further beyond?
Oh, man. I do have to say when he did his halftime
show and I was watching at a local establishment
soon to be sponsoring this show, which is really
exciting stuff. We're going to talk more about
that in weeks to come. But we're watching with
a group of friends. Super Bowl. He's on. Now,
everybody seems to be enjoying it at the bar,
except this one old guy is like, what about Kade
Rock? And everybody's like, yeah, shut the fuck
up. Yeah. So that ended quickly. Uh, anyway,
uh, there was a part in his presentation in his
is whatever bad bunny was doing Were there all
the guys up on the power lines? Yeah now that
was significant because that had to do With like
the hurricanes that came through and trump not
supporting them and yeah, I keep doing this whole
thing sugar cane was like artistic, like, meaning.
Everything in that was, like, had meaning. Everything,
yeah. Everything. But when that, when the utility
pollsters came up, I yelled out, oh, Nipsco!
So I got some giggles from the play. You know,
it's comedy. That's what I do. So, um, yeah.
Uh, man. Tough. That's tough. That is tough.
That's tough. Because, like, Bed Bunny... is
another guy who's versatile, right? He's like
been in movies. He was on that last train to
Busan with Brad Pitt. He has such a cool role
in that movie. He's so good. That's a fun movie.
He fought people on WWE for a little bit. Dude,
right, he's in there. And I remember all of us
were like, what is this? This is garbage. And
the dude was so good. He's like jumping around.
I'm like, damn. He trained. Homie's got hops.
He trained. I just like him. Yeah. He just seems
like a G. I want to have a beer with Bad Bunny.
Yeah. I want to give him a hug. You can. Yeah.
Yeah, I feel like I deserve it. I think you do.
Thank you. You deserve a hug from Bad Bunny.
Thank you. So is Bunny upsetting Miley? Oh, man.
Because she's great, too, man. I mean. Yeah,
you're going to hate me. I think he is. Damn.
I think he is. But that's up to you guys. Well,
if you guys. Because Miley's so, like, that's
my Hannah Montana. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Indeed she
is. His adorable little face, I just love him.
Bunny and his adorable face. Mujan, the last
one. Lady Gaga versus Adele. Damn, that's another
tough one. Yup. I think, you can't even compare
them in terms of talent necessarily because they're
both incredible at what they do. Their style
and presentation are totally different. I'm swayed
by Lady Gaga because of... American Horror Story.
Oh, yeah, this is true. That's true. Damn. Well,
but I know Adele plays that lover music that
everybody loves like she's angry Hello from the
other side. And that other side would be wherever
Lady Gaga isn't because Lady Gaga's moving on.
Oh, man. That was rough. Sorry, Del. I do like
your music. She did do that James Bond song,
which was really good. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Skyfall.
Skyfall. Yeah, she did a great job. I love her
face. She's so unique. Like, she's a unique face,
Lady Gaga, specifically. Sorry to bring that
back, but I'm just thinking about that. This
is true. That is a fair point. Alright, so next
week it will be Dua Lipa against Billie Eilish
and Bad Bunny against Lady Gaga. That's a heavyweight
matchup right there. That is difficult. Yeah,
so alright, so next week we know what we're looking
at. There's our Sweet 16. There's our Sweet 16
and when we come back, Carpe Diem. That sounds
like a dessert. I'm hungry. I'm hungry. All right,
we are back from our break. It's the Mark Mo
Show on all podcast platforms and YouTube and
joined with or joined by, I don't know, pick
a word, Aidan Maloney, who is my producer and
co -host, and our special guest, our first ever
guest, cast. Hi, it's Papa. It's Papa. She's
here and helps a great deal at our brackets.
Lifesaver, actual lifesaver. Not Munch Madness.
Not yet. Not yet. We can do that another time.
Cheesy Poofs are gonna win. Anyway. So anyway,
Carpe Diem. People send us their DMs and we read
their comments on the air and answer their questions.
Well, we could answer their questions. It's possible.
We're capable of. We're incredibly capable. It's
more of a, how badly do they want the questions
answered. Exactly. Right. You want to make the
show. Right. You got to show us that you're as
equally capable of putting, I don't know, money
in our PayPal accounts. Sure. Or, you know, I'm
sure they could USPS us like a couple ounces
of gold bullion. We deserve a treat. That's exactly
right. Yeah. I think that's fair. That's what
the people tell us. It's what the people want.
It's what they want. Yeah. It's what the people
want. That's it. So here we go. This is Carpe
Diem. I will go through mine, and Aiden can go
through yours. We have questions, comments. Papa,
you jump in at any time. This first one is from
at Schmelven Schmline. Shmelvin's comment is,
Mosho, what's up with the cost of everything,
especially clothes? I needed clothes for work,
two pairs of pants, three shirts, almost $200.
Yeah, that's why I haven't updated my wardrobe
in probably eight years. I don't think I've bought
myself a new pair of anything except for shoes.
I've got a question. Where are you shopping though?
Like I get stuff as expensive. But if you're
not buying firsthand, go to the resales. Yeah,
go to Goodwill. What kind of clothes that you
are not able to find at the thrift? Right. This
is true. Go thrifting. I know the first hit might
not be the one. Go to four different thrifts
in one day. Go three times a week in the morning.
Yeah. You will find what you need. Yeah. Yeah,
because there are Swifties and then there are
thrifties. Yeah. Oh. Yeah, exactly. We are part
of that thrifty culture. We got to be. Yeah.
We have to in this economy. Multiple times a
week. Yeah, oh yeah, we do. Drifting is an adventure,
though. It is. It's super fun. You can upcycle.
That, garage sailing, state sales, all that kind
of good stuff. The next one is at out of work
mama 12. Hey guys, who do I have to blow to get
a job? I have 20 years of admin experience. I've
been out of work for almost a year. So dumb.
Yeah. Out of work mama, I feel you. We were just
talking about the whole this economy thing. Yep.
And she's struggling. I get it. The struggle
is real. The struggle is real. And I'm not saying
you have to blow someone to get some money, but,
you know, keep your options open. That's terrible.
That's terrible. Going to hell for that bit.
Yeah. But now you just got to try to stay positive.
And I know it's super hard. Put yourself out
there as much as you can. Yeah. Walk into places.
Yeah. Be annoying. Call them multiple times.
Be annoying. Harass them for it. Right. Places
will eventually hire you. I've seen multiple
people do that where they like... They're like,
we're not going to hire them. Call 20 times.
They're like, persistent. They're like, fine.
We'll give you a chance. Yeah. And find gigs.
I mean, I found a few gigs since I've been off,
and it's been helpful. But if you babysit or
you can babysit for people, do it. Babysit, dog
walk, long care. Dog walk. That's it. All of
it. So just make ends meet for now. At The Raven
Nevermore, what do you guys find spooky? It might
sound weird, but closets and basements freak
me out. This is, yeah, I get that, like claustrophobia.
I definitely, I definitely get. I don't know,
spooky is a very specific adjective. Yeah, so
I mean, it's like ghost, but that's not that
vibe, so. Right. Yeah, because it's like spooky
doesn't have the same vibe to me as like horror
or what scares you. Yeah, scared. Right? Like
spooky. Freak down scary. I can see those going
through, but spooky is like, yeah, like. Yeah,
because I don't know if it was spooky or scary,
but I was I was hiking I was hiking at night
with Papa and It was a situation so we decided
to climb up this hill because I definitely knew
where I was going and So we had to say we had
to scale this hill for no good reason no good
reason I'm like I think we need to go there.
He's like no we gotta walk up there Okay, it's
already established after the Sun goes down do
not hit me up for a direct I wasn't scared though,
I didn't even know that he was getting the little
swoopies. I was, like we're climbing up this
hill and she's already up the hill. Yeah, I'm
like be careful, hold this, don't step here.
Hop is a sprite, you know, she just like bounced
up like a magical leprechaun, right up this hill
and I'm just sitting there struggling, the struggle
is real, and I rip this log in half, I'm like
what is going on? Meanwhile, like there's a mad
mass murder guy like a hundred yards behind me
closing fast. It was a thing. In your brain,
yeah. In my brain, yeah. You heard the stick
in the vlog that you knocked off, and you're
like, she's here. Yeah, that was it. I was just
like, Cass, leave me. Just leave me. Run to the
car, guys. Run to the car. She can't drive. She
wasn't going to drive. I'm literally just going
to hide. She was going to get there at some point.
Yeah, it was all over. I do like that, though,
of ambiguity, and especially things that fall
under the uncanny valley. That's what I find
like the most spooky. Spooky. Yeah, I see. I
do. That's a good one. Uncanny is a really good
one for spooky. Yeah, just creepy. Spooky, creepy.
Yeah, and once again, there's like spooky and
creepy and scary and, you know, horrifying, all
those words. Like for me, it's when you're in
the dark and you're like going to bed, you're
sleeping, whatever, or just passed out on the
couch, whatever, any scenario you want. I can
agree with the dark as well. And you hear noises.
You hear noises. I just start imagining things.
Is that a figure? That's true too. Is it my brain
or is that noise real? I'm like, did I put that
jacket there or is that somebody standing there?
Who's tapping on my wall? It's just me. It's
just me. I'm not tapping on it. Somebody's tapping
on it. They want to be heard or known. No, that
was a good one though. I don't know about the
closets thing though. It could fall under the
same thing of, like, seeing silhouettes or, like,
I don't know, the hangers are spread out and
there's just, like, one jacket in there. Wire
hangers! It could be anything like that. Or claustrophobia,
I think you said that initially. That's probably
what it is. Wait, who's that? Who's Alan? Oh
no, here, here. This is a thing. This is foreshadowing,
folks. Pop is new to this. So we have a regular...
uh poster his name is stoner stanley 420 we love
stoner stanley for whatever reason he calls me
momo and aiden allen okay he's always this close
to getting it right he's so close so as a matter
of fact he was lost in a dollar general for three
episodes i think he finally got out yeah uh so
hey momo and alan Freaks me out today. I thought
I saw you guys stealing my battery. I Need that,
you know But not you it was my chubby neighbor
Juan Looking for his dog Beelzebub Actually,
he didn't spell it that way. He spelled it Beezlebub
Beezlebub I bet the squirrel knows Wow, there
is a squirrel. He lives in a van down by the
river. So There's this squirrel that is his nemesis.
Anytime something's missing or something's wrong
in his life, he blames it on this squirrel. It's
the squirrel. That's so funny. Yeah, so that's
Stoner Stanley. That's our guy. So Stan, I don't
know what you want from us this week. We weren't
trying to steal your battery. That's so funny.
Old Stan. God bless his soul. I think he was
high AF, in my opinion. But that's Stoner Stanley
being Stoner Stanley. Yeah. Best to luck with
your battery. Yeah, no shit. All right, what
do you have, Aiden? I got a DM here from atchipchap.
What is the worst thing to wear on a first date?
Stained clothes. Yeah. Completely. And I think
it's so gross to me. Yeah. I'm not in a mean
way, but I'm like, just get the stain out. Or
wear anything different, literally a dark shirt.
Yeah. Shope with like spaghetti stains. It's
like, what the hell is happening? And not even
like just a little one. I just feel like, no,
no, I'm talking like a little one you didn't
notice. It's like, whatever. Oops. No, but I
don't know. My ex, his clothes were all stained.
And not even talking shit, but like his shirts
would be stained. I'm like, we cannot go out
like this. We cannot go out like this. That is
rough. That's a good call. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah,
that is a good one. Yeah. It's just, yeah, it's
not cute. Yeah. And I think fashion is really
cool. I'm super into fashion, so I'm like, uh,
what are we doing? Yeah. The image, the image.
Right, right. Yeah, I mean, it, god, that's so
broad, because it's like, if I wore like a ballerina
costume that said I love it when balls are in
my face, that would probably be a bad... Yeah.
Yeah. Unless... Unless, like, she's like, has
that... That humor. Sense of humor, is like,
this dude's gonna be fun as fuck. Right. But,
normally I wouldn't wear that. You just show
up in like a Speedo and nothing else. Right,
got your banana hammock going. Meat suit. Meat
dress. Lady Gaga's like, nah, that shit worked.
Yeah, boy oh boy. I don't know. Stained clothes,
banana hammock. Yeah, all of those are good.
I mean, I know we're in the state of Indiana.
Fedora. Oh, yeah. Don't do that one. That's a
red flag. Yeah, don't do that one. I was trying
those on yesterday. I know, but you can't wear
it on a first date. Can't wear it on a first
date. Not even calling you out. I didn't even
think about that one. Do not refer to her. She
is. I'm fine. No, that's cool. I don't care.
I'm so happy. Papa just slamming me. I'm sitting
there trying to be Mad Men and she's just breaking
bad. Two shows, one comment. I'm back. I'm nailed.
I got a DM here from at Bread on Toast. Oh, wait.
Wait. Okay. Why is everyone driving pickup trucks
now? It makes no sense. If you're in a city and
you're a freaking banker and you live in Lincoln
Park, why do you need a truck? Yeah. I think
I brought up a stat years ago of the percentage
of people that actually use pickup trucks for
work is like 5%. Much I want like just a regular
like pick -up truck like with a bed. That's it.
Yeah, like now I sound like a nice I'm like evil
poser because I also want to get one but I feel
like I would use the bed of my truck I see that's
the difference here. I think yeah is like having
it because it's like oh, I'm gonna be able to
utilize it and yeah another versus like a dude's
like I just want truck I think it's literally
just because they want to seem like big right?
That's the only way I can describe. Yeah compensating
for something. Yes, literally, right It's a bad
look. It's a bad look. Yeah. It really is. Final
DM I received today is from Evil Genie. Ooh.
Time for another curse. Sorry, guys. Would you
rather have the flu for 10 days straight or have
wet socks and shoes for a month straight? Wet
socks and shoes. I'll just take them off every,
like, little bit if I can so I don't get, like,
um, what's that one thing? Trench foot. Trench
foot. That's the only thing. But I don't really
mind that. I would not want, what was the first
one again? You know, I don't like the flu. I
don't like that. So it is a curse either way.
You know, I had COVID for 19, so I feel like
I could handle flu for 10. Yeah. I just don't
have enough sick days to like... But then again,
I have to wear work boots all day and I would
get trench foot. I think I'll just have to take
the flu and like... And just deal with it. And
just deal with it. I'm going Swapy Monster. Oh
man. And that was your last one. Yep. All right.
Yeah, if you guys have any DMs, comments, hit
us up for sure. We are now moving on to a segment
called The Other Foods. Now, Aidan scans the
globe. Really, he's got this little globe on
his desk. It's cute. He scans the globe, and
he finds some of the most disgusting, repulsive,
terrible creations, culinary creations ever devised.
Certainly. I'm curious what you have found this
week, Aidan. Today, I find one from multiple
places on that cute little globe. Oh, okay. You
can find it in Mexico, Romania, Poland, a few
other places. A little thing called tripe soup.
Oh, no. Tripe soup. I think I've heard of this
before. Yeah, a hearty soup or stew made from
the stomach lining of mammals. Stomach lining
soup. That sounds foul. That's vile. Yeah. Popular
in many cultures, often considered a hangover
remedy. But I feel like, what about like stomach
acid and stuff? That's why I'm thinking it's
vile, vile. Not even vile, vile. That's vile.
It's both. Vile, vile. Uh, so people consider
it a hangover remedy. I think I'd rather just
be hungover than eat stomach lining. There's
coconut water right there. Like literally, I
don't know. Quote, it's known for its unique
chewy texture. Ah, gross. Yeah. So I guess that
falls under the, uh, the umbrella of awful. Yeah.
Not only awful, but awful, spelled with an O,
which is like animal organs used for food. Eww.
Yeah. Wow. Tripe soup. I'll pass. I'm going to
pass on the tripe soup. Anything that is like
chewy in the food world, if you're not bubblegum.
Right. Bubblegum or caramel. I'm not sure I need
to just like gnaw on it for a while. I wish gummy
bears didn't hurt my stomach, because those are
the ones that are chewy too. Oh yeah. We love
gummy bears. That's bears. Do you like those
Haribo ones? I like Albanese. Albanese sounds
much better. Alright, awesome. Yeah, it was awesome.
God, that one really messed me up, man. I don't
know. I just don't want that ever. Is it not
some form of cannibalism to put stomach in your
stomach? Like, I know you're not eating human,
necessarily. Yeah. But is that not... A paradox
of some kind? It kinda is. Yeah. I mean, that'd
be like getting a double -quarter pounder and
giving it to your cow. Right. Yeah, you don't
want to do that. Although I'm sure the cow would
probably like it. Unless. Yeah. It's freak. Um,
okay. Isn't that how mad cow disease happens?
Really? Oh wait. Oh wait, no, it's like, it's
a prion disease. Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm. But I know
it was like a thing. in like the 80s where you
should like not buy beef, especially in the UK.
Beef and beef. Yeah. Don't buy beef and beef.
Yeah. Yeah, that's not good. All right. Before
we take our next break, Frozen Guy review. And
this week I had a banquet, fried chicken, corn
and potato. As delightful as that sounds, because
those are those are all things I love. It was
not great. It was not super great. The portion
size was kind of small. The gravy was runny.
The chicken was fair, was average. Potatoes,
the potato, when you microwave potatoes, they
just don't come out right. That's true. They
just don't. Yeah. And then corn's corn. It's
hard to f up corn. Right. So I just, I found
it kind of just mid at best. With the price point
on it. Yeah, price point I think was $3 .29.
That's not horrible for a 6 .2. Yeah. 6 .2. That
is 6 .2. That's my score. That's not horrible.
Now, like I said, kind of maybe. For the price.
For the price. Yeah, that's the only thing that
I'm like over the price. And it's funny you say
that because that's kind of how we do the grading.
It's kind of like we take the quantity, the quality,
and the price. Yeah. And we just kind of suss
it out from there. Grate it from there. Yep.
6 .2. It's a 6 .2. It's like, look, if there's
nothing else to eat, OK. Yeah. But that might
be one of your lowest graded thus far. I think
it is. I've been saying forever like I was going
to come up with an Excel sheet so I don't repeat
any. Right. Because we're getting to that point.
Yeah. We're definitely getting to that point.
Although, Papa and I go shopping and we went
to Meyer and Meyer had some different frozen
foods so I was like, oh so excited. I'm like,
oh my god. That's pretty excellent. Yeah. I'm
in the frozen aisle and it has to do with content.
I mean, how crazy is that, right? All right.
We're going to take a break because we can and
when we come back our feature segment, you just
made the list. Hey everybody, we're back to the
Mark Mo show and it's now time for our feature
segment You just made the list that is our top
ten list ten through two and then our big number
one reveal and Now the rules very important and
so I'm gonna mention them right now. There are
no rules. Oh nice The rule is there are no rules.
That's my favorite rule. It is my favorite rule
So this week our top ten breweries top ten, so
And that's much different than top 10 beers.
Right. Which I don't believe we've done. Because
breweries is more all -encompassing. It's all
-encompassing. Do they make a variety of excellent
products rather than just one superstar? Than
just one beer. Yeah. That's true. That's a good
point. But there are no rules. There's no rules.
So have at it. Yeah. That's what I'm trying to
say. All right, Aidan. Why don't you kick us
off, man? I'll run my 10 through 2 and save my
big number 1 for later. Number 10, more brewing
company. Just outside of Chicago, everything
I tried there was incredible. I don't know how
it's not on more store shelves, but whatever
they do there is magic. Number 10, Lexington
Brewing and Distilling Company. They make the
Kentucky bourbon barrel aged ales. Oh, I know
that one. OK, I know that. Pretty damn excellent.
Number eight, Samuel Adams. Got to be on there.
Is Mark Moe going to make a quick adjustment?
Shh, don't tell anyone. Don't tell anyone. You
know what's really disgusting is that we're actually
related to him. Oh yeah, that is true. We're
related to Sam Adams. Funny how that works. I
know. Number seven, Founders Brewing Company.
Oh, Founders is good. Founders is really good.
Number six, Off Square Brewing. Yeah. Right here.
Crown Point, Indiana, yeah. They make a damn
good Belgian double. Oh, do they? Oh, yeah. Yeah,
you would you would like this bar, Papa. It's
it is off the square. That's why they call it
that. So it's not by the courthouse. Okay. But
yeah, they're known for like their wood fire
pizzas and wings and they make all their own
beer. And like I think the Pilsner that of the
65. So good. Yeah, really damn good. Number five,
New Holland Brewing. They make good beers. Number
four, Guinness. That's fair. You've got Guinness,
you've got extra stout, you've got Harp, you've
got Smittex. Yeah. They probably make more. They
used to make a black lager. I don't know if they
do anymore. They did. Or at least I don't think
it's distributed here. Correct. Yeah. But you
got five all -stars right there. You do. It's
a lineup, man. Number three, Beers de Chamey.
Oh, Chimay. Chimay, is it cool? So we'll have
to try this sometime, because Papa and I, we
try different beers. It's a pricey bottle. It's
pricey. Yeah. But if you get it, we go to this
one bar. It's called the Map Room, which is great.
That's our bar. Yeah. Love it. In Chicago. And
they have a different class for whatever beer
that you select. You weren't telling me about
the yellow. So cool. And I'm surprised they didn't
have Chimay, because they do kind of... You know,
things kind of swap and swap out. I miss my beer.
You do miss your beer. Why don't you tell everybody
what your beer is, Papa? Duvel 666, the evil
beer. It's so good. It's not the evil beer, actually.
I'm just joking because people talk 666. But
I know it's not evil. No, I love it. It's so
good. I don't even know how to describe it. It
just feels super light and young. Yeah, it is.
It's a good beer. It is really young. Where do
you find it? Or is it lost forever? It's there,
the map room. But they also, like I went to this,
we went to a grocery store out there right I'm
pretty sure we went to one of them. When we were
looking down the, might have been Whole Foods
or whatever, we were looking down the beer aisle,
but they didn't have it. But I did ask at the
bar and they said that they do believe they sell
it at stores, so I've been trying to find it.
I don't know how popular, I don't know. We'll
find it. There's a liquor store called Benny's.
It's probably the biggest liquor store ever.
Yeah, I bet they would have it. I bet they would.
They've got everything. They do. Number two on
my list, Revolution Brewing. Straight out of
Chicago. Damn good beer. Yeah, I had to add them,
too. Yeah. Oh, did you? Hashtag fail. Yeah, it's
fine. It's fine. There's no rules. There are
no rules. So I'm okay. I'm fine. I've not broken
any rules because there are none to break. True.
My honorable mentions are Revolution and Sam
Adams. Haha, because I forgot them. Number 10,
I have Blockhead. Blockhead is in Valparaiso,
Indiana. That's our home. For now. For now. And
yeah, I really like their beers. They do everything
right on site there. They're opening a second
location in La Porte, Indiana. Really? That's
crazy. Yeah, they are. Good for them. Yeah. And
it's, yeah. It's a good beer. Off Square is my
nine. Nice. Excellent, excellent stuff. Number
eight, I have Burnham Brewing in Michigan City.
Oh, yeah. That's a good call. Burnham's got really
good beer. Yeah. I do like their stuff. I haven't
heard this from Aidan yet, so I'm wondering if
it's number one or he just omitted it. Three
Floyd's in Munster. Oh, man. You forgot. I forgot.
You forgot. I forgot. I'm not alone. Yay. Yeah,
Three Floyd's. Three Floyd's. They have a Dark
Lord Day where they just do the beer for that
weekend, and then it's gone. Yep. So number six,
I have Goose Island. That is also Chicago. That
312 is a killer. 312 is so good. Our mutual friend
Jess likes 312 and she was on a 312 kick for
a while. They make a good shandy. Mm -hmm, and
I went to Riot Fest in Chicago, Douglas Park,
and I go right up to the beer tent, and they're
selling the big boys of the 312s. Oh, yeah. And
I just said, I said a picture to Jess, I'm like,
I'm getting fucked up. What's gonna go down?
Number five, Sierra Nevada, based out of Chico,
California. They're good now. I know Aidan is
going to know this one. It's based out of Washington,
Ellensburg, Washington. Iron Horse Brewery. I
almost put them on. They do this beer called
Irish Death. It's incredible. It's unbelievable.
It's one of the best beers I've ever had. I'm
not going to lie. It's like a dark ale. Yeah.
But it's so good. It's a dark beer and it's incredibly
smooth. Oh, yeah. Incredibly smooth. You would
love it, Papa. I think you would like that one.
Number three, Guinness, Dublin, Ireland. Of course,
you have to. Number two, Great Lakes Brewing.
They're based out of... I almost put them on
also. Did you? I like them. They do a couple
of really good Irish beers for mass release in
around like February, March. Yeah. They have
an Irish... They make an excellent Christmas
ale. Oh, do they? Yeah. Yeah. So Great Lakes
is good. And I will save my number one. I'm curious
if we have the same number one. I would be interested
if we do. My number one, New Belgium. Okay, no,
they're good though. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Whoa makes
me wonder what I forgot Well, it's also a bit
of foreshadowing. Oh, I have new Glarus out of
New Glarus, Wisconsin Yeah, so yeah new Belgium
is good though. Yeah, they do fat tire. Yeah
Yep, they do Fat Tire, they do the Voodoo Rangers
that we've tried a couple of. Oh. Yeah. Right.
Yep. I have regret. I mean, there's no rules.
You can put it on your honorable mentions. By
the way, I forgot an honorable mention. It is
New Belgium. Ha, how silly of me. Anyway. Do
you have any thoughts on beer, cast, or breweries
or anything like that? I haven't been to a lot
of breweries. Duval is your number one? Yeah,
Duval is my number one. Once again, find party
people out there. If there are any we missed,
any breweries you like, hit us up in the comments.
We're now moving on to Down the Reddit Rabbit
Hole. And sometimes Aiden goes down there and
I lose him. Like I'm like, where'd he go? I get
lost in the sauce. You do? Yeah. I love ready.
It's not weird. Yeah. It is weird. And I kind
of appreciate sometimes that it's weird, but
sometimes it's too weird. Yeah. At least it's
like honest though. Yeah. You know? That's fair.
That's definitely fair. It's like one of the
last bastions of, you know, just not being like
part of this corporatocracy and theocracy and
all this anonymity. And just being able to like...
Enjoy articles, right? Yeah, so what did you
find it? I'm curious going down the rabbit hole
I found the top nine foods that naturally boost
dopamine. Oh Give your brain the good vibes.
Okay already. Yeah number one on this list, which
is crazy because our special guest host ate one
and threw it away during the opening segment.
Number one on the list is bananas. Bananas and
coffee is number two. I love coffee. Coffee is
so good. Number three is pineapple. Pineapple.
But it hurts to eat. Yeah, the pineapple bites
you back. Yeah, it does. And that's where SpongeBob
lives. Under the sea. Number four on this list
is green tea. Which is also pretty polar. Green
tea. Guava. Number five. I don't eat much guava
in my daily life. It's a little too tropical
for me. There was a hot second where I thought
you said guano. No. Guano bowls. Collect the
whole set. Sweet potatoes. I'm so happy then
because I love sweet potatoes. I eat them every
day. Beets are on this list. Number eight. Bears.
Battle Star collect. Oh, okay. Cashews. I love
cashews. They're too freaking expensive. That's
true. Like a little tin of them is like nine
dollars. Oh, I know. It's like I got to take
a loan to get like a canister of cashews. And
then number nine on the list, broccoli. I love
broccoli. I do too. I don't know, like, as a
kid I was always against broccoli, but I never
had a reason for it. Mine was because everybody
had it raw, and I was like, ugh, like what? And
then I had it cooked, and now I'll eat it raw,
but I prefer it cooked. Yeah. Yeah. Roasted broccoli.
Just saute it. I always saute it. Mm -hmm. That's
good. Hell yeah. So it's your top nine. That's
awesome. I love that. And there's something interesting,
too. So broccoli's on that list. I noticed cauliflower
was not, but cauliflower's another family. Same
family. Same family. So I like both of those.
There is some sort of hybrid that was invented
called brocca flower. Do you remember that? I
heard of it. I never tried it. It sounds kind
of cool. As cool as it sounds, I would rather
eat the sleeve of my hoodie. It's diabolical.
It is awful. I'd rather take a bath in like canned
green beans. I like canned green beans. You like
canned green beans? Yeah, nobody else does ever.
That's okay. I get it. For me, I think it's just
I had them so much as a kid. Oh, sure. It's like,
green beans, green beans, green beans. I'm like,
come on, mom, there are other vegetables on this
earth. I'm like, work with me here. And one night
I got so sick. Like, I took a bite and my body
was like, no more. I literally just spit them
across the table. Of course, my dad was like,
ready to smack me. Like, dude, dude, no, just
vile. No, please. And I really didn't touch him
again until Aiden's mother one day. is gardening
and wanted me to eat a raw green bean. And I'm
like, no woman, don't give me that. And she's
like, no, you like it. I'm like, no, you know
me and green beans. Get that thing away from
you. She's like, it's different. It is different.
Completely different. And it is without a doubt.
Yeah. 100%. It's like snap pea -esque. Mm -hmm.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Edamame. I want fresh edamame.
Yeah. Well, you had those edamame snacks the
other day. Yeah. Those were pretty good. The
bags, you have the hard ones. I want the ones,
the soft ones though. The movie theater. The
one in Portage, I think has, yeah, they have
fresh edamame in it. No, I didn't know that.
I know, and a bar in there. I'm like, that's
amazing. That got me through a situation. That's
a pretty baller movie theater. I love that theater.
It's great. Now, before we take our final break,
Aidan, while you were sleeping, this is a segment
where, whether it's a YouTuber or whether it's
a movie or a TV show, book, anything like that,
that we just kind of miss. Got another youtuber
today. Oh, okay. I don't want people to sleep
on okay. We won't we promise. I did a thing It's
the name of the channel. Oh, okay All right,
tell us what to do I did a thing is the name
of the channel. I love that funny Australian
man that builds things Which is right up my alley.
I love funny little Australian dudes Well, you
do kind of have a baller accent. Yeah, it's pretty
excellent I try and keep it under wraps because
I don't want people to think I'm actually from
Australia. I can see where people would get confused.
Yeah. Yeah. I only break it out in public to
confuse strangers. Or when we're playing Dream
Daddy. Oh, yeah. Yeah, because we do all the
voices for all the characters. Damian. Damian
is the Aussie. Yeah. Yeah. And the Hispanic teacher
is Christopher Walken. Yes. That was my bad.
That was my bad. Because you get the dialogue
before the person pops up. Before the person
pops up on the screen, you've got to throw something
out there. Yeah. But yeah, this Australian dude
builds things. And in his most recent video,
he built a contraption that someone from like
the 1920s designed, which is a centripetal force
baby remover. Whoa. Where this dude made a patent
for this spinning table that spins the mother
around. For the baby to fly out. For the baby
to fly out. Is insane. And he actually built
it. Granted, he just got like a... Of course
the invention went no -mare because like the
baby would have died and the mother would have
died. The baby's connected till they decide to
unconnect it. How does that work? Well, he actually
built it. And he bought like an actual birthing
mannequin that like doctors use to practice on.
Yeah. And he put them... He strapped them. He
built this huge spinning table and like hooked
his car up to it to like spin it up like you
would like... Oh my gosh. Like a... I don't know.
A baby. Yeah, baby. Exactly. And he got it spinning
so fast, it was going like 200 kilometers an
hour at its edges. And he built a little net
because the baby did in fact shoot out of the
mother. That's crazy. No. It's awesome. And he's
got like other videos where he builds like a
crab farm in his garage to like grow crabs. burning
a house down to prove a point to prove a point
but yeah just really funny super entertaining
And I just like watching people build stuff.
It's funnier when they're Australian, because
then they sound cool. Oh yeah. Yeah, for sure.
It's interesting. I watched a show when I was
not getting my tire fixed. It's a long story,
folks. But I'm sitting there almost three hours.
It was just terrible. And so there's a show on
the TV in the lobby. And I don't even remember
the name of the show. Swamp things, swamp people,
swamp something. These people that like go out
and they hunt alligators. For the same reason
we hunt deer, because they're overpopulated.
Sure. They eat them? Yeah, but they eat them
like they'll abuse the skin and they eat the
food and all that kind of stuff. So yeah, it's
not like they're just... Ruthlessly murdering
them. I mean, if it's like apple snails, you
can ruthlessly murder those. And like, the tiger,
the lionfish, those get ruthlessly murdered.
But it's kind of necessary. It is kind of necessary.
They're so invasive that it has to be done. Oh,
okay. I'm just, like, picturing people with shotguns,
like, shooting snails. No, they don't even usually
kill the adult ones, from what I see. They usually
just smush all the eggs and, like, crush them.
Oh, I see. And then the tiger, the lion, whatever,
that weird -ass wannabe fish that belongs on
land. They just spear them all the time. And
you can, I guess, eat a little bit of them once
they're cooked right. But I heard they're gross.
Yeah. I know the fish you're talking about. Yeah,
lion, zebra, tiger, fish. Zoo animal fish. Yeah.
Yeah, so that was interesting. Anyway, we're
going to take a break. We come back. I know Papa's
going to be excited. We're going to drink some
beer. We're going to drink some beer. We're going
to rate some beer. And then, of course, Let me
clear my throat. Sorry, didn't mean to do that.
And then now we're gonna get tagged or some shit.
I don't know, whatever. World of Weird News coming
up. All right, we are in the homestretch here
of the Mark Mo Show. I'm your host, Mark Maloney.
Hi. Also with Aidan Maloney, my co -host and
our very special guest, our very first guest
cast who also goes by... Papa. Papa. Yep. And
now she's excited because this is the part of
the show where we drink beer. Yeah. Which is
pretty great. We do a beer review. The beer review.
The official beer review. The official beer review,
really. I'm too excited. I'm going to start chewing
on a bottle. Don't start chewing on the bottle,
but if you want to grade that too, feel free.
You know, there's no rules with this either.
So at any rate, this week our beer comes from
the state of Wisconsin and we kind of have a
love -hate relationship with the state of Wisconsin.
They got cheese, they got beer, but then on the
other side you've got a town called Green Bay,
which is kind of... Nah, we don't need that.
Anti -baller. Yeah, nah, we don't need that.
But like everything else is fine. Yeah. Am I
missing something? Is it evil there? They have
the Green Bay Packers. They're diabolical. I
almost punched a guy in b -dubs. Oh yeah, that's
right. I never want to punch a guy in b -dubs,
so this guy got ahead of comment. Yeah. He's
just a bad person. But I didn't do it because
I love my servers and bartenders and I wouldn't
put them through that. The restraint, yeah. Literally
powerful. Literally one of the managers came
over and was like, Mark? I'm like, yeah. Please,
please don't hurt him. I was just like, no, I'm
good. I'm good. I did security. I know when to
call myself. I said, we're good. That's fine.
But he does deserve an ass beating. Yeah. Just
to be fair. Find his ass in the parking lot later.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Catch him outside. Anyway, Spotted
Cow. Spotted Cow. Inform these beautiful people
out there in the webosphere about Spotted Cow.
Spotted Cow is from your number one brewery of
all time, New Glarus. That's right. Straight
out of New Glarus, Wisconsin, which makes it
crazy. They named the city after the brewery.
That's wild. This is a farmhouse ale. As, uh,
as New Glarus puts it, Expect this ale to be
fun, fruity, and satisfying. You know you're
in Wisconsin when you see Spotted Cow." That's
facts. So you went and got this there? Actually,
I had the hookup. Nick Rapley, who's a musician
here locally, plays, he does concerts and stuff
that he does regionally. So he happened to be
in the state of Wisconsin for a show. And when
he heard that I got run over by a car... Do you
guys hear? I got run over by a car. Anyway, different
story, different day. I'm still live from here.
And so he like heard that, and he's like, oh
man, Mark, I hit by a car. It's real terrible.
So what do you give the gift of someone who gets
run over by a vehicle? You bring them beer. Yeah.
I think that's fair. So that's what he did. He
was there, and he remembered me telling him one
time that I like spotted cow, so he picked some
spotted cow up. My man. That's a G maneuver.
What a great friend. Yeah. Yeah. He's a good
dude. All right. We're looking at 4 .8%. ABV.
That's right. 18 on the international bidders
unit. So not high. Not high at all. We'll rank
it a scale from zero to five on our untapped
app on our cellular devices and give you some
tasting notes. I love that. We'll definitely
do the tasting notes. Untapped app. It's free.
You can do it. It's free. Yeah. And you can click
social media and connect with all your friends.
And when you go to different bars or you try
different beers, you just throw it on there.
You share it with everybody. It's kind of fun.
Not sponsored, but it's cool. They should be
sponsored. Yeah. We should work on that. I'm
still working on PBR. Yeah. I'm going together.
If we get PBR and untapped... That would be amazing.
I can pass away knowing I've lived my fullest.
Exactly. All right, guys, here we go. Sluncha.
Spot a cow. That's pretty damn fantastic. That
makes me so happy. That is really good. Yeah.
There's a little bit of fruitiness in there.
A little bit. Like an apple or pineapple or something.
That is super nice. We always comment, too, on
like the design of a can or the design of a bottle.
Yes. This is just classic. It's so cute. Yeah.
Little cow jumping over the state of Wisconsin.
Yeah. Yeah, I thought about ripping that off,
actually. I was like, I might put this in my
little collage. I think you should. Yeah, I think
so. Yeah, it's really good. It's very refreshing.
Super smooth. Yeah, not heavy at all. Yeah. It
doesn't leave anything on your tongue. I like
it. That's really damn good. Feels fresh. It
does feel very fresh. Why do I rank it on a scale
of five? Where would you rank it on a scale of
five? I'll give him like a 3 .9. 3 .9? Yeah.
He's not bad. I like him a lot. He's really good.
Yeah. But he's not made to battle. That's true.
That's true. That's fair. That's like a six out
of five. Yeah, and literally that raises the
scale. I'll give it a 3 .75 out of five. I really
enjoy it. Yeah. That's solid. I went four to
five. Four to five? One of my highest. I don't
know if it is my highest, but it's up there.
Maybe tied with one of your highest? Could be.
Yeah. Yeah. I liked it a lot. The flavor profiles,
smooth, light bodied. Clean. Clean. I get that.
Fruity. I don't get sweet so much, but a little
bit of a fruity something there for sure. Yeah,
it's not a sweet beer. No, no, it's not. I don't
think I've had a sweet beer. There's some. You
can get what's called a Weiss beer, spelled W
-E -I -S -S. Those are German beers. If it's
poured in a tall glass, typically. They're very
cloudy looking. But they definitely have, like
a lemon is usually very common. Lemon or orange.
Lemon or orange. And a Weiss beer. Those are
pretty good. You'll have to try one. I don't
know if we've tried them. Well, they're not even
sweet, is it? Is there? That's just more citrusy.
It is more citrusy, but there are like, fruited
beers that have like, they use like blackberries
and raspberries in the production of it. Okay.
That are pretty fucking tasty, but they're kind
of harder to find. Yeah. And then 450 North does
sour ales, but they're actually sweet. That sounds
good. Yeah. And they have some that are like
vanilla ice cream cone blackberry sundae. a lot
flavored. Yeah, they get crazy. There's a lot
going on. How do they do that? That sounds amazing.
I don't know. It's magic. But the problem is
a four pack is like twenty two dollars. I knew
that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, the one stout that
I tried at the math room was like this chocolate
stout. It was a German beer, but I don't like
I can't remember the name. Yeah. And then it
was off the Samuel Smith. Brewing does an organic
chocolate stout that is Phenomenal. Yeah, like
chocolate stouts are good. They're very good.
So yeah, well according to According to the untapped
app they give you a lot of badges and different
things I have a 41 North Tavern in st. John,
Indiana is now verified venue. That's great And
then they're also they're also trying to sell
THC four packs. Oh Yeah. Must be nice. Couldn't
be me. No, nope. That's a no bueno for you. That's
all the cards I got. I feel cheated. Yeah, I
didn't get any either. Oh, you didn't get any
this time? Nah. That's a shame. Yeah, you hate
to see it. We'll get them next time. I didn't
even think about it. But yeah, no, spotted cow,
well done. Pretty good. Very good. Yeah, we're
all kind of in the same neighborhood. Yeah. Pretty
much with our score. High three, low four. Yep.
Now that moves to our final segment. The world
of what? No, no, I didn't do that. I'm sorry,
the what? I'm sorry, did I disappoint you? Unbelievably
so. Yeah, let me get that right. The world of
weird news! To finish out the Mark Mo Show for
this week, and I will start with my interesting
news. Tommy Lynch 42 of Derbyshire, England went
to the hospital after waking up with blue skin.
People magazine reported on March 10th Lynch's
roommate who works as a carer Saw his skin and
whisked him to the emergency room thinking he
might be deprived of oxygen Doctors there assessed
him and prudently rubbed his arm with an alcohol
wipe Revealing his quote -unquote ailment sleeping
on a new unwashed dark blue sheet Oh my god.
I never knew you had to wash your sheets before
you slept on them, Lynch said. I looked like
an avatar. Oh my gosh. Lynch said he spent the
next week trying to get the blue dye off of his
skin. Oh my gosh. Like if that's my roommate
and I come home, I'd be like, hey, you're a smurf.
No, for real. Like immediately. Why are you blue?
Why are you blue? I've heard stories similar
to that where if people consume too much colloidal
silver like as a People use it like a dietary
supplement or like a health item If you consume
too much of it, you will turn blue I didn't know
you could turn blue. I didn't know you could
turn like get an orange hue from the beta -carotene
Yeah. Yep. I've heard that one too. Pretty fun.
Wow. When you eat enough carrots, you start to
look like a carrot. I know. Wow. Hey, whatever.
Dime my hair green. Let's go. Just playing up.
Play that. Just beat that carrot. I've got a
story here from Kiro7. Snack attack. Florida
man accused of robbing victim who refused to
buy him Wendy's chicken nuggets. A South Florida
man is facing a host of charges after police
said he robbed at gunpoint the stranger who declined
to buy him chicken nuggets. The armed robbery
was reported. Thursday outside of Wendy's in
Miami -Dade County. According to the arrest report,
John Earl Taylor, 34 years old, approached the
victim as he exited his car and asked him if
he could purchase chicken nuggets for him. The
victim told Taylor he only had enough money for
his personal purchase and walked into the fast
food chain. When the victim exited the Wendy's,
Taylor approached the man, this time with a semi
-automatic gun with an extended mag. Taylor allegedly
demanding both the victim's gold chain and his
car keys before fleeing the scene. A burglary
detective spotted the victim's car parked in
a space just before Friday morning, but Taylor
entered the vehicle and fled the location as
he officers arrived. He was taken into custody
after crashing the stolen vehicle and now faces
charges. all because of chicken nuggets. He could
have just stole the food. He could have just
stole the chicken nuggets. That's what I was
like. I was like, okay, so you steal his car,
his chain, and you don't take the food that you
wanted originally? Right. You didn't even want
the food. You're a liar. Right. Yeah, he was
just using the chicken nuggets as an in. I think
so. Extended bag, that's serious. Yeah, that's
insane. That is serious. That's like the baseball
team at B Dubs. Good times. God bless Florida,
man. Florida Man. Florida Man always pops up
in the World of the Weird News. Always. I love
that. A legend. A legend. He's definitely, definitely
a legend. And that wraps up this edition of the
Mark Mo Show, Season 6, Episode 1. So we're still
going. Damn right. They haven't killed us yet.
