00:00:08.590 --> 00:00:10.949
Hey there, everybody. Welcome to the Mark Moss

00:00:10.949 --> 00:00:15.550
Show. It is Season 7, Episode 2, Music Therapy.

00:00:15.769 --> 00:00:18.109
I'm your host, Mark Maloney. How y 'all doing?

00:00:18.489 --> 00:00:22.589
And next to me is my co -host and producer, and

00:00:22.589 --> 00:00:25.089
got a lot of his own online stuff we'll talk

00:00:25.089 --> 00:00:26.789
about in a minute. It's Aidan Maloney. What's

00:00:26.789 --> 00:00:30.589
going on? I am chilling. On a scale from one

00:00:30.589 --> 00:00:33.670
to chilling, I am chilling. We were talking a

00:00:33.670 --> 00:00:36.149
touch before we started hitting record. Didn't

00:00:36.149 --> 00:00:38.229
get good quality sleep last night, but it was

00:00:38.229 --> 00:00:41.710
like a healthy duration. Sure. Like I got like

00:00:41.710 --> 00:00:44.850
eight hour 45, but then I woke up and I'm like,

00:00:44.929 --> 00:00:47.270
yeah, I could use another three or four hours.

00:00:47.549 --> 00:00:50.590
Yeah. Yeah, I would agree with that. I actually

00:00:50.590 --> 00:00:57.600
was at work about 11 hours yesterday. That was

00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:01.280
fun. That was good times. So I did that. And

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:04.120
then when I was done, I had to get this fine,

00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:07.439
beautiful, wonderful episode ready, which I had

00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:12.060
done almost zero work at this point. And we had

00:01:12.060 --> 00:01:14.719
to go someplace to do that. I'm like, hmm, who

00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:17.799
has Wi -Fi? You know, most coffee shops are closed

00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:20.799
by now. This is true. So I went to a fine establishment

00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:25.109
in Crown Point called Stryker's. And it was my

00:01:25.109 --> 00:01:28.489
third time there. Great vibe on a Saturday night.

00:01:28.510 --> 00:01:31.650
A lot of fun. And it was hilarious because there

00:01:31.650 --> 00:01:34.310
were like three people that recognized me. I

00:01:34.310 --> 00:01:37.030
only recognized one of them. And they were all

00:01:37.030 --> 00:01:39.170
like dabbing me up. Yo, man, what's up, Mark?

00:01:39.250 --> 00:01:43.010
Hey, what's going on? So then the one girl had

00:01:43.010 --> 00:01:45.870
asked me, she's like, she looked at me kind of

00:01:45.870 --> 00:01:47.189
weird. She's like, is this your first time here?

00:01:47.269 --> 00:01:50.109
Because I had never. been there while she's working

00:01:50.109 --> 00:01:54.290
and i think she might be new ish um and so her

00:01:54.290 --> 00:01:56.590
name's ray and so she came over she's like uh

00:01:56.590 --> 00:01:59.290
are are you is this your first time and i'm like

00:01:59.290 --> 00:02:01.549
i've been here a few times before and she's like

00:02:01.849 --> 00:02:06.250
Oh, I was wondering. I'm like, no, I've had Caitlin.

00:02:06.329 --> 00:02:08.189
I've had Carissa. I said, I've been here. She's

00:02:08.189 --> 00:02:10.990
like, oh, all right. I said, yeah, I brought

00:02:10.990 --> 00:02:13.789
a crazy bus group in here. Oh, you're that guy.

00:02:13.870 --> 00:02:17.110
I'm like, I'm that guy. Oh, you're that guy.

00:02:17.169 --> 00:02:20.430
I'm that guy. I wasn't the guy. They got super

00:02:20.430 --> 00:02:25.770
wasted and ran away. We won't name names. We

00:02:25.770 --> 00:02:29.069
won't name names. Yeah, some people got lost

00:02:29.069 --> 00:02:32.849
in the sauce, literally. And figuratively. But

00:02:32.849 --> 00:02:35.849
I was the other guy. I was the fun guy. Anyway,

00:02:36.050 --> 00:02:40.969
yeah, so apparently I'm not so regular regular

00:02:40.969 --> 00:02:44.750
now at Strikers. We'll have to fix that because

00:02:44.750 --> 00:02:48.009
they have amazing happy hour deals there. Righteous.

00:02:48.270 --> 00:02:49.949
I'm all about saving a couple of bucks and having

00:02:49.949 --> 00:02:52.330
a good time, you know what I mean? I almost wonder

00:02:52.330 --> 00:02:57.389
if our... We're both... Highly caffeinated and

00:02:57.389 --> 00:03:00.710
still caffeinating as we speak. Yes. I almost

00:03:00.710 --> 00:03:05.830
wonder, for anyone in the Midwest U .S. or Upper

00:03:05.830 --> 00:03:09.550
East Coast, Canada, you may have realized, wow,

00:03:09.610 --> 00:03:12.430
the air quality is really horrible. Like, the

00:03:12.430 --> 00:03:16.090
National Weather Service is telling people, hey,

00:03:16.150 --> 00:03:19.750
don't go outside. Yeah. Like, you leave your

00:03:19.750 --> 00:03:21.449
house and you're like, is the entire Indiana

00:03:21.449 --> 00:03:23.750
Dunes having a barbecue today? Right. Right.

00:03:24.250 --> 00:03:27.569
Yeah, the AQI around us, I think, peaked around

00:03:27.569 --> 00:03:33.150
395, which is on a scale up to 500. That's pretty

00:03:33.150 --> 00:03:36.229
terrible. Yeah. As far as breathing air. I thought

00:03:36.229 --> 00:03:39.150
two days ago it got up over 600. I don't think

00:03:39.150 --> 00:03:42.030
it goes above 500. There was a rating or something

00:03:42.030 --> 00:03:46.530
that goes up. That high. Oh. I'm not sure AQI

00:03:46.530 --> 00:03:47.870
NFL. I don't know what the hell it's called.

00:03:47.949 --> 00:03:51.469
But there was some rating that goes up to, like,

00:03:51.590 --> 00:03:54.189
600 or 650 or something. And, like, anything

00:03:54.189 --> 00:03:59.530
past 500 is, like, very not bueno. And we actually

00:03:59.530 --> 00:04:02.229
had the worst air quality in the country, I think,

00:04:02.270 --> 00:04:05.550
two of the last three days. So, yeah, it was

00:04:05.550 --> 00:04:08.770
bad around here. It makes me wonder, like, with

00:04:08.770 --> 00:04:11.069
how terrible the air quality was. At least it's

00:04:11.069 --> 00:04:13.719
a little bit better today. Like, did that affect

00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:17.060
our sleep? Like, we didn't get enough O2? It's

00:04:17.060 --> 00:04:19.560
possible. Something like that? It's very possible

00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:22.740
that people's sleep is affected by that and moods

00:04:22.740 --> 00:04:27.040
and everything else. That's, like, 100 % accurate

00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:30.720
on that. And, yeah, you know, it was interesting.

00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.160
I was driving into work, and it reminded me.

00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:35.220
I haven't been to L .A. in a long time. But,

00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:37.810
like, when I was in L .A. And you're driving

00:04:37.810 --> 00:04:40.750
through the valley is when you really notice

00:04:40.750 --> 00:04:45.790
the smog out in Los Angeles. And, you know, that's

00:04:45.790 --> 00:04:50.420
almost all entirely CO2. issue right yeah yeah

00:04:50.420 --> 00:04:53.439
so that being the case like i was driving i'm

00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:55.500
like oh my god i feel like i'm driving in the

00:04:55.500 --> 00:04:58.199
valley right now i mean oh right that's exactly

00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:00.980
what it reminded me of oh my god this is it's

00:05:00.980 --> 00:05:04.860
smog we have it right finally finally gosh i've

00:05:04.860 --> 00:05:08.040
been waiting so long we did it boys we did it

00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:12.620
way to go indiana uh yeah so it it is what it

00:05:12.620 --> 00:05:16.000
is i mean you know It's hard to sit there and

00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.319
be like, in Canada, it's a freaking fire, man.

00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:20.759
We've had a bunch of our own. And the Canadians

00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:23.480
helped us. Right. And our shit's on fire and

00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:27.360
they send everybody. Let's not be too mean. No.

00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:30.939
And I mean, conversely, I've seen a lot of Canadians

00:05:30.939 --> 00:05:32.639
out there. Americans aren't helping us. I'm like,

00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:34.339
no, you're listening to the douchebag Republican

00:05:34.339 --> 00:05:37.540
pundits on the TV and the radio and everything

00:05:37.540 --> 00:05:40.870
else. The state of Wisconsin, the state of Minnesota,

00:05:41.110 --> 00:05:43.209
the state of Michigan, they've sent their own

00:05:43.209 --> 00:05:47.089
DNR people up there to go up there and help fight

00:05:47.089 --> 00:05:50.149
the fires. So let's just be fair on both sides

00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:53.250
of this. The fires suck. I've seen photos that

00:05:53.250 --> 00:05:55.610
are just horrific looking. It just kind of looks

00:05:55.610 --> 00:05:58.250
like if there was a hell, like somebody opened

00:05:58.250 --> 00:06:01.509
the gates and they're like, we're here. Why Canada?

00:06:01.750 --> 00:06:04.930
Why Canada? Of all places to pop up. They're

00:06:04.930 --> 00:06:07.060
like, yeah, what did we do, eh? It would make

00:06:07.060 --> 00:06:08.860
more sense if it pops up in Texas. You invented

00:06:08.860 --> 00:06:13.459
hockey. No! Well, yeah, exactly. We in hell love

00:06:13.459 --> 00:06:17.240
hockey. Meanwhile, south of Mobile, we're here.

00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:20.600
Yeah, that would make a little bit more sense

00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:23.399
for sure. What would we know? But what do we

00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:25.759
know, right? I mean, it is what it is. Anyway,

00:06:26.060 --> 00:06:28.879
my caffeine is probably sponsored by Fluid Coffee

00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:31.319
today. Not sponsored. Not sponsored, but it would

00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:32.699
be cool. Who knows? It would be kind of cool.

00:06:34.089 --> 00:06:36.029
Saw my friend Allie this morning. So, Allie,

00:06:36.089 --> 00:06:40.170
what up? She's a supporter and an all -around

00:06:40.170 --> 00:06:43.129
awesome person. Word. Definitely worth shouting

00:06:43.129 --> 00:06:45.709
her out. And, of course, all the amazing people

00:06:45.709 --> 00:06:47.629
over at Strikers. Like I said, if you're in Crown

00:06:47.629 --> 00:06:49.850
Point, my favorite bar in Crown Point is closed.

00:06:50.209 --> 00:06:52.269
I think it's going to reopen as something else.

00:06:52.750 --> 00:06:57.290
But it's kind of like you have the original OG

00:06:57.290 --> 00:07:00.370
Dive Bar and then you have Dive Bar by Timu.

00:07:00.910 --> 00:07:03.350
Yeah. And I think that's what's going to replace

00:07:03.350 --> 00:07:07.639
it. Yeah. It's what the people are saying. It's

00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:09.779
what the people are saying. I mean, I'm just

00:07:09.779 --> 00:07:13.060
one of the people, so don't look at me. But at

00:07:13.060 --> 00:07:15.399
any rate, you know, will I give it a try once?

00:07:15.860 --> 00:07:21.220
Maybe. But I think Strikers is my vibe. Yeah.

00:07:21.379 --> 00:07:24.100
Yeah. That's what's up. Yeah, man. Just like

00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:27.480
the people there are cool. The crowd there was

00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:29.899
cool. Very diverse, you know. Middle -aged people,

00:07:30.019 --> 00:07:31.759
younger people just all kind of hanging out,

00:07:31.819 --> 00:07:34.379
listening to good music. Okay, I have to say

00:07:34.379 --> 00:07:39.660
this. Somebody, whoever had the, it's not iTunes,

00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:42.300
whatever the app is to play. The jukebox thing.

00:07:42.339 --> 00:07:44.839
The jukebox thing, yeah, on your phone. So whoever,

00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:46.579
like I was going to play some music, and then

00:07:46.579 --> 00:07:48.300
I was like, I wasn't sure when I was leaving,

00:07:48.379 --> 00:07:50.339
and I ended up leaving semi -early, and I was

00:07:50.339 --> 00:07:52.519
just like, I'm not going to dump any money into

00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:54.220
it tonight. Plus, I figured there's probably

00:07:54.220 --> 00:07:58.699
20 songs ahead of me. Somebody played. And I

00:07:58.699 --> 00:08:02.220
was dying. Like, okay, I need to give some context

00:08:02.220 --> 00:08:06.420
here. So there was a time when I would be out,

00:08:06.459 --> 00:08:08.959
like Aiden and the boys, and we're hanging out.

00:08:09.060 --> 00:08:12.180
And, of course, anyone that knows me, in that

00:08:12.180 --> 00:08:14.639
environment, I am a low -level menace. I will

00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:17.199
cause problems. Not, like, big problems. I'm

00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:19.240
not going to, like, start a bar fight. I'll finish

00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:22.579
one. I'm never going to start one. But, like,

00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:25.339
I'm a menace in, like, a cute, playful way, I

00:08:25.339 --> 00:08:28.269
think. Anyway, so part of being a menace is like

00:08:28.269 --> 00:08:29.829
we'll go in and there'll be a jukebox and I'll

00:08:29.829 --> 00:08:31.810
go, oh, and I'll just find the most ridiculous,

00:08:31.870 --> 00:08:34.950
crazy -ass songs to play. Right. On the jukebox,

00:08:35.029 --> 00:08:37.090
to the point where at a Buffalo Wild Wings once,

00:08:37.230 --> 00:08:39.970
the manager ran into the kitchen and was like,

00:08:40.070 --> 00:08:43.629
which one of you fuckers is playing it? Totally

00:08:43.629 --> 00:08:47.070
threw the employees under the bus. Legit, LOL.

00:08:47.250 --> 00:08:50.350
I was freaking dying. And they actually killed

00:08:50.350 --> 00:08:51.929
the jukebox. And they killed it. They turned

00:08:51.929 --> 00:08:54.529
it off. They turned off the damn jukebox. I couldn't

00:08:54.529 --> 00:08:57.330
believe it. But at any rate, fast forward to

00:08:57.330 --> 00:08:59.919
last night. I'm sitting there, and I'm trying

00:08:59.919 --> 00:09:02.820
to do my show, sipping on my Miller Lite, not

00:09:02.820 --> 00:09:10.559
sponsored. And all of a sudden, Dominic the Christmas

00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:14.580
Donkey starts playing. I'm dying. I'm like, who

00:09:14.580 --> 00:09:18.159
the hell played that? It was amazing. Wow. It

00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:21.419
was amazing. What a pull. Oh, just out of nowhere.

00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:23.500
I was just like, man, who was that? I want to

00:09:23.500 --> 00:09:25.740
shake his or her hand right now. That's awesome.

00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:29.220
So once I got that vibe, I'm like, oh, I think

00:09:29.220 --> 00:09:31.500
these are my people. I really think these are

00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:33.379
my people. Christmas in July. That's what they

00:09:33.379 --> 00:09:35.980
say. Christmas in July. I'll allow it just for

00:09:35.980 --> 00:09:40.419
another two weeks. That's about it. But yeah,

00:09:40.519 --> 00:09:44.240
so anyway, we're doing a little show here, right?

00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:47.120
Mark Mo Show. We're into our seventh season.

00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:52.399
And I have to say, this guy here, over by there,

00:09:52.659 --> 00:09:57.659
Aiden has a really cool gaming site called Aiden

00:09:57.659 --> 00:10:00.240
Spelled the Right Way. GeoGuessr, PolyBridge,

00:10:00.299 --> 00:10:01.799
ObservationDuty, a bunch of different horror

00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:04.559
games, things like that. So what do you got going

00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:08.039
on this week? Well, I played this game called

00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:13.539
Velar recently. Very spooky. I flew backwards

00:10:13.539 --> 00:10:17.269
in my chair several times. Quite spooky, very

00:10:17.269 --> 00:10:21.970
excellent. The graphics, quite fun. So I got

00:10:21.970 --> 00:10:24.649
a lot of indie horror still coming up, as I usually

00:10:24.649 --> 00:10:27.269
do, because they keep making good games and I

00:10:27.269 --> 00:10:30.590
keep playing good games. I still have not done

00:10:30.590 --> 00:10:33.590
the idea I brought up the other week of doing

00:10:33.590 --> 00:10:36.610
the Euro Truck Sim distracted driving simulator.

00:10:37.070 --> 00:10:40.610
I think it's a hilarious idea, but just like

00:10:40.610 --> 00:10:43.919
doing it without... getting copyright claimed

00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:47.500
or struck or anything, I'll find a way to do

00:10:47.500 --> 00:10:50.100
it. Because I think it's a funny bit. I think

00:10:50.100 --> 00:10:52.019
you should. Yeah. I think that'd be a great idea.

00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:55.320
No doubt. You know, and it's funny. I've been

00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:57.019
thinking about this copyright claim thing for

00:10:57.019 --> 00:11:00.059
a while. Because there's... I don't want to say

00:11:00.059 --> 00:11:04.139
it limits us big time. I would say a little bit.

00:11:04.179 --> 00:11:06.799
It just kind of throws a swerve if there's certain

00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:10.220
things you want to do. But I found a way around

00:11:10.220 --> 00:11:14.080
it, I think. If you could just take popular song

00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:17.759
and change a word. It says separate ways. Separate

00:11:17.759 --> 00:11:22.000
way. Done. It'd be like, then what? Who wrote

00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:25.840
separate way? Nobody. See? Uh -uh. No, that's

00:11:25.840 --> 00:11:28.120
not going to work. So that's what I'm saying.

00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:31.240
Totally brand new song. It's a brand new song.

00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:36.139
Purple Mountains. Majestic. Change the word.

00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:37.980
Change the word. I don't know what you're talking

00:11:37.980 --> 00:11:41.279
about. I ain't copying nothing. I ain't no copyright

00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:44.840
claim here. So all I'm saying to all of you other

00:11:44.840 --> 00:11:49.580
creators out there, be creative with it. Exactly.

00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:53.740
Yeah, so you never know. Welcome to the jungle.

00:11:53.740 --> 00:11:56.980
Brand new ideas, yeah. Welcome to the jungle.

00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:00.580
Who wrote that? I did. We have lots of change.

00:12:00.899 --> 00:12:06.580
We have lots of change. That's a bit. Some people

00:12:06.580 --> 00:12:08.679
are bothered with my voice, but I think I got

00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:11.779
range. Yeah, I mean, we got it, man. Bars. Bars.

00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:17.639
I can drop that shit all day. We're already out.

00:12:17.659 --> 00:12:19.379
Look, I was out drinking last night. What do

00:12:19.379 --> 00:12:21.100
you want from me? That's all I'm going to say.

00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:23.600
What do you want from me? I'm doing my best.

00:12:23.659 --> 00:12:26.000
Welcome to the Django full version. Full version.

00:12:26.139 --> 00:12:29.179
Hitting Spotify soon. Soon. Hitting Spotify soon.

00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:32.970
It's this generation's Weird Al. That's what

00:12:32.970 --> 00:12:36.250
we're just going to. Yeah. Yeah. Not so weird,

00:12:36.269 --> 00:12:40.860
Mark Moe. So anyway, yeah. Other than that, Aiden

00:12:40.860 --> 00:12:43.580
and I, we do a collab too. So we do our own gaming

00:12:43.580 --> 00:12:46.500
called A &M Gaming. And if you're on the Insta,

00:12:46.500 --> 00:12:48.220
if you're on TikTok, well, maybe not so much

00:12:48.220 --> 00:12:52.840
TikTok as TikTok can suck my schnitzel. But we

00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:55.299
create a lot of content, I should say. Aiden

00:12:55.299 --> 00:12:58.600
creates a lot of content to put on there. And

00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:01.120
it's hilarious and it's great. And some of you

00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:02.899
have actually seen that and liked it. So that's

00:13:02.899 --> 00:13:07.360
great. We appreciate you. Anyway, we... We play

00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:10.779
a lot of games where we don't have to be totally

00:13:10.779 --> 00:13:14.980
screwed in and just really paying attention or

00:13:14.980 --> 00:13:16.799
else you die and then the game's over and that

00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:19.299
kind of defeats the purpose. But we play games

00:13:19.299 --> 00:13:22.899
that we can kind of play and do our brand of

00:13:22.899 --> 00:13:28.179
comedy, improv, chit -chatting, utter chaos.

00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:33.970
Goofing. Yeah, exactly. So we do that. People

00:13:33.970 --> 00:13:36.250
tend to like it. And if you do like it, thank

00:13:36.250 --> 00:13:43.370
you. If you don't. Oopsie. Oopsie. Zoe. Joe Rogan

00:13:43.370 --> 00:13:46.090
for you. I don't know. Here's other venues, I'm

00:13:46.090 --> 00:13:48.490
sure, other options. There's lesser venues if

00:13:48.490 --> 00:13:50.090
you want to take that path. If you want to take

00:13:50.090 --> 00:13:52.610
that path, for sure. Yeah, there's no doubt about

00:13:52.610 --> 00:13:55.190
it. But yeah, just do whatever you want to do,

00:13:55.230 --> 00:13:57.370
but the ones that do watch and listen and like,

00:13:57.450 --> 00:13:59.690
we appreciate you. So yeah, definitely like and

00:13:59.690 --> 00:14:03.210
share and subscribe. All of this would be amazing.

00:14:04.309 --> 00:14:08.179
Lately, we've... We've done a combination of

00:14:08.179 --> 00:14:12.799
some GeoGuessr, which you guys do seem to kind

00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:16.580
of like. So we probably do that one the most.

00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:21.460
But then there's the... Queen rule in the world

00:14:21.460 --> 00:14:24.559
one. Sort the court. Never remember that. I don't.

00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:26.700
There's just a mental... I think my hard drive's

00:14:26.700 --> 00:14:30.179
full. Oh, I see. I have to do a... A little defrag.

00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:33.039
I have to defrag my brain so I can start remembering

00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:37.820
more things. But sort the court. And we sometimes

00:14:37.820 --> 00:14:41.419
do observation duty, but we're doing one similar

00:14:41.419 --> 00:14:45.179
to observation duty, which is called... Spectator.

00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:47.659
Spectator. See, I forgot that one, too. Spectator.

00:14:47.659 --> 00:14:52.690
I hardly know her. what he said so yeah spectator

00:14:52.690 --> 00:14:55.529
is really cool it's it's i don't want to say

00:14:55.529 --> 00:15:00.370
it's easier but i feel maybe it is a little bit

00:15:00.370 --> 00:15:02.889
easier i don't know all i'm saying is like it's

00:15:02.889 --> 00:15:07.330
it's more entertaining for us it's more fun as

00:15:07.330 --> 00:15:10.029
less stressful less stressful like observation

00:15:10.029 --> 00:15:12.990
duty like like it triggers my anxiety sometimes

00:15:12.990 --> 00:15:15.870
yeah So I'd sit there and be like, oh, I wonder

00:15:15.870 --> 00:15:18.009
if that's the problem people have watching it.

00:15:18.149 --> 00:15:20.590
Right. They're just kind of like, ah! And I'm

00:15:20.590 --> 00:15:24.269
like, sorry. Or for our friends up north on fire,

00:15:24.350 --> 00:15:28.129
sorry. At any rate, yeah, so we play a bunch

00:15:28.129 --> 00:15:30.730
of games. Probably some GeoGuess are coming up,

00:15:30.789 --> 00:15:32.830
and we'll probably do some more Spectator. That's

00:15:32.830 --> 00:15:36.470
been a lot of fun. And, yeah, if you guys out

00:15:36.470 --> 00:15:40.649
there have any suggestions, definitely let us

00:15:40.649 --> 00:15:45.419
know for sure. And we'll give a game a try. Yeah,

00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:49.279
damn right. We'll definitely do that. Oh, by

00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:50.899
the way, I saw Del Mar the other morning. I was

00:15:50.899 --> 00:15:56.779
going into work, and I was pulling out of McDonald's

00:15:56.779 --> 00:16:00.440
with my crack Diet Coke, which I need every morning.

00:16:00.820 --> 00:16:03.000
And I'm pulling out of there, and all of a sudden

00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:05.500
I hear, Maloney! And I was like, who the hell?

00:16:05.580 --> 00:16:08.620
What? Who? And so I literally pulled the wrong

00:16:08.620 --> 00:16:11.000
way down the one -way thing. And I just kind

00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:12.740
of looped around. And I saw that it was Delmar

00:16:12.740 --> 00:16:16.299
from Franklin House. And I was just like, Delmar,

00:16:16.379 --> 00:16:20.080
dude, what's going on? So he apparently has this

00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:23.500
new gig coming up. So I'm pumped for him. Right

00:16:23.500 --> 00:16:25.820
on. It's definitely going to be a good situation

00:16:25.820 --> 00:16:28.679
for him. So I'm super proud. So hey to Delmar,

00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:33.440
too. He's a good dude. Anyway. Um, let's talk

00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:35.799
a little bit about the title for this week, which

00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:39.600
is Music Therapy. So, we know life isn't always

00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:43.299
easy. Sometimes it is Moonbeams and Misty Meadows.

00:16:43.320 --> 00:16:49.320
Name the movie. Uh, Shrek 4, Forever After. Okay,

00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:53.480
how about if I say it? Moonbeams and Misty Meadows.

00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:59.649
Wizard of Oz? No, Scrooged. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:16:59.850 --> 00:17:03.230
You got it now? Yep. I see the scene now. One

00:17:03.230 --> 00:17:06.769
of my favorite scenes ever. And then he just

00:17:06.769 --> 00:17:10.450
smacks him in the face with a toaster. I just

00:17:10.450 --> 00:17:13.890
love it. The violence of that. Of that whole

00:17:13.890 --> 00:17:18.930
interaction. Gonna rip your goddamn wings off.

00:17:21.069 --> 00:17:25.650
Sometimes you gotta smack them in the face. So

00:17:25.650 --> 00:17:29.950
good. So good. Anyway, sometimes it is moonbeams

00:17:29.950 --> 00:17:31.769
and misty meadows, but other times it's hell

00:17:31.769 --> 00:17:34.710
on earth. When life brings you down, when things

00:17:34.710 --> 00:17:36.920
get tough, there are... things you can do to

00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:40.900
improve your mood. There's also music that can

00:17:40.900 --> 00:17:44.220
match your mood. Sometimes you just need to know

00:17:44.220 --> 00:17:46.740
you're not alone sometime in your struggles.

00:17:47.059 --> 00:17:49.480
Now, there are movies and there's TV shows and

00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:52.259
there's podcasts and other forms of multimedia

00:17:52.259 --> 00:17:56.859
that are distractions from things that are causing

00:17:56.859 --> 00:17:58.720
you grief and frustration and other stuff like

00:17:58.720 --> 00:18:02.619
that, but there's no greater therapy than music.

00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:07.160
Keyword you just said. being distractions. That's

00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:09.980
precisely, especially if you're in a bad mind

00:18:09.980 --> 00:18:12.990
state, that's exactly what... like binge watching

00:18:12.990 --> 00:18:16.750
YouTube or throwing on a Lord of the Rings for

00:18:16.750 --> 00:18:19.230
the fifth time is, it's a distraction. Yeah.

00:18:19.250 --> 00:18:23.650
Oh, 100%. And that's literally, we refer to this

00:18:23.650 --> 00:18:25.710
on our show quite a bit, like us, quote unquote,

00:18:25.829 --> 00:18:30.269
getting off the highway. So in a sense, you're

00:18:30.269 --> 00:18:32.250
getting off the highway. You're just like, you're

00:18:32.250 --> 00:18:33.650
kind of doing your day and it's shitty, it's

00:18:33.650 --> 00:18:35.329
shitty, it's shitty. And you make that decision

00:18:35.329 --> 00:18:37.150
to be like, nope, getting off the highway. Yeah.

00:18:37.210 --> 00:18:39.690
And then you fill it with something else that.

00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:46.740
is going to distract you. But at any rate, so

00:18:46.740 --> 00:18:50.420
music therapy... is an evidence -based clinical

00:18:50.420 --> 00:18:53.240
practice where credentialed therapists use musical

00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:55.779
interventions like playing instruments or singing

00:18:55.779 --> 00:18:59.079
or listening to accomplished individualized goals.

00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:01.839
It's used to improve cognitive function, motor

00:19:01.839 --> 00:19:04.759
skills, emotional expression, and social communication

00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:08.619
in clients of all ages. Rather than just passive

00:19:08.619 --> 00:19:11.559
listening, structured sessions involve active

00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:13.700
engagement to stimulate multiple areas of the

00:19:13.700 --> 00:19:16.640
brain. So these four primary methods used by

00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:20.140
therapists are receptive, so that's listening

00:19:20.140 --> 00:19:23.819
to guided or pre -composed music to process emotions,

00:19:24.079 --> 00:19:27.339
promote physical relaxation, or evoke memories.

00:19:27.619 --> 00:19:32.079
I think that's what most of us do on the daily.

00:19:33.099 --> 00:19:36.220
There's also improvisational. which is definitely

00:19:36.220 --> 00:19:39.900
very me and Aiden. Creating spontaneous sounds

00:19:39.900 --> 00:19:43.079
or rhythms together with the therapist to non

00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:45.980
-verbally express feelings. Recreational, singing

00:19:45.980 --> 00:19:48.400
or playing familiar instruments to improve mood

00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:53.779
or and rebuild motor control. And compositional,

00:19:53.779 --> 00:19:55.680
which is writing lyrics or composing original

00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:59.859
music to process trauma or grief. Now, last one's

00:19:59.859 --> 00:20:03.059
interesting to me because when I'm in a wrong

00:20:03.059 --> 00:20:06.700
state of mind, I can't write. Oh, okay. I cannot

00:20:06.700 --> 00:20:10.240
write. My brain, if I have to sit there, because

00:20:10.240 --> 00:20:12.579
a lot of times I was under a deadline for certain

00:20:12.579 --> 00:20:14.759
things I'd have to write, and I would sit there

00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:17.480
in front of a computer, usually in a coffee shop

00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:20.720
or a bar, because whatever it is about those

00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:24.559
atmospheres allows me to write. I don't know.

00:20:24.559 --> 00:20:27.319
If I sit in a quiet room at home, forget it.

00:20:27.619 --> 00:20:31.539
I have to be amongst other chaos. And then I

00:20:31.539 --> 00:20:33.779
go, oh, and click, click, click, 500 words later,

00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.789
I'm done. Right. Don't know why. It's just everybody

00:20:36.789 --> 00:20:39.309
is a little bit different, I guess. But, like,

00:20:39.450 --> 00:20:41.750
if I'm having a bad day, if depression's kicking

00:20:41.750 --> 00:20:44.029
my ass, I'm thinking about a bunch of sad shit,

00:20:44.109 --> 00:20:46.910
whatever, and I sit there and look at a computer

00:20:46.910 --> 00:20:48.349
and I'm like, oh, I'm going to write a poem,

00:20:48.390 --> 00:20:49.670
I'm going to write a song, or I'm going to write

00:20:49.670 --> 00:20:52.950
a story, forget it. No bueno? No. I'd have better

00:20:52.950 --> 00:20:56.789
luck learning Mandarin. Damn. Nope. Nothing will

00:20:56.789 --> 00:20:58.730
come out of this brain. That's why I had to give

00:20:58.730 --> 00:21:01.660
up writing. Because at that time... Number one,

00:21:01.660 --> 00:21:03.420
I was unemployed, so I had to find side jobs

00:21:03.420 --> 00:21:05.539
and whatever, and I was all stressed. And number

00:21:05.539 --> 00:21:09.579
two, my brain couldn't do it. My brain's like,

00:21:09.660 --> 00:21:12.039
hey, I am processing like 300 other things right

00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:14.559
now, and writing something is not one of them.

00:21:14.700 --> 00:21:17.019
And it just would not come out. Yeah. Wouldn't

00:21:17.019 --> 00:21:19.579
do it. Interesting. Almost makes me wonder, because

00:21:19.579 --> 00:21:24.930
right before that was... improvisational or recreational,

00:21:25.130 --> 00:21:28.049
like you were saying, where I almost wonder if

00:21:28.049 --> 00:21:30.789
instead of words, if you had an instrument in

00:21:30.789 --> 00:21:33.930
front of you, like picking back up the guitar

00:21:33.930 --> 00:21:36.609
or something and just strumming around, if that

00:21:36.609 --> 00:21:40.750
musically, music type of writing would hit you

00:21:40.750 --> 00:21:43.569
differently than writing with words? Perhaps.

00:21:43.750 --> 00:21:47.289
Perhaps. I mean, there's some bands that that's

00:21:47.289 --> 00:21:52.930
the beginning. The seedling, as it were, of most

00:21:52.930 --> 00:21:56.609
songs is not so much, ooh, look at these lyrics.

00:21:56.809 --> 00:21:59.150
Now, not everybody's freaking Ice Cube, right?

00:21:59.390 --> 00:22:02.730
But not everyone's like, ooh, here's these lyrics.

00:22:02.890 --> 00:22:06.250
And then you kind of look at it and create music

00:22:06.250 --> 00:22:09.170
around it. A lot of times it's the other way

00:22:09.170 --> 00:22:12.430
around, where your writer is inspired by whatever

00:22:12.430 --> 00:22:16.849
you play. Sure, yeah. Think about Tony Iommi

00:22:16.849 --> 00:22:20.710
sitting there. Strumming to Marsbringer of War

00:22:20.710 --> 00:22:26.289
by Gustav Holtz. Oh, yeah, cool. Got it. Got

00:22:26.289 --> 00:22:29.569
it. Check. Check. Got it. Ozzy's sitting there

00:22:29.569 --> 00:22:34.809
going, I can share it. No, probably not that.

00:22:34.930 --> 00:22:39.009
But he was like, I got this shit. And he did.

00:22:39.210 --> 00:22:41.690
It's still to this day one of the greatest albums

00:22:41.690 --> 00:22:46.509
and songs in metal history, no doubt. That being

00:22:46.509 --> 00:22:50.210
said, I agree with that in many respects. Sure.

00:22:50.750 --> 00:22:52.529
Because it's a different type of creativity.

00:22:52.829 --> 00:22:56.170
Yeah. You know? Oh, 100%. So you have to wonder,

00:22:56.210 --> 00:22:59.950
like, who does this all benefit, right? So, you

00:22:59.950 --> 00:23:01.990
know, those with neurological and physical conditions,

00:23:02.150 --> 00:23:04.210
post -stroke, pain management, motor functions,

00:23:04.349 --> 00:23:08.049
like Parkinson's, mental health, anxiety, depression,

00:23:08.250 --> 00:23:10.230
stress, something that we've talked about this

00:23:10.230 --> 00:23:15.309
show endlessly for seven seasons. Big, big supporters

00:23:15.309 --> 00:23:18.970
of all of that. Not pro -depression, of course.

00:23:19.089 --> 00:23:20.349
Yeah, I was going to say, we're not supporters

00:23:20.349 --> 00:23:26.369
of anxiety, per se. Yeah, yeah. Be mad, be sad,

00:23:26.650 --> 00:23:29.109
be sad. Depression, yay. Yeah, I mean, we're

00:23:29.109 --> 00:23:32.029
not, no. More stress, please. More stress, please.

00:23:32.549 --> 00:23:34.750
Man, I just worked 10 hours. Can I work two more,

00:23:34.869 --> 00:23:38.130
please? But also memory and aging evokes past

00:23:38.130 --> 00:23:40.529
memories, improves present moment awareness like

00:23:40.529 --> 00:23:44.349
Alzheimer's, dementia patients. That was my father

00:23:44.349 --> 00:23:50.109
to a T because as he regressed, meaning forgetting

00:23:50.109 --> 00:23:53.089
more current things and how to do more current

00:23:53.089 --> 00:23:56.910
things and slowly, almost like being erased,

00:23:57.029 --> 00:24:02.130
going backwards, a lot of the older stuff, tidbits

00:24:02.130 --> 00:24:05.960
remain. Right. So you play Sinatra and you play

00:24:05.960 --> 00:24:08.140
Tony Bennett and you play people like that and

00:24:08.140 --> 00:24:11.220
you talk about mobsters and you talk about like

00:24:11.220 --> 00:24:13.500
stuff from the 60s and 70s and then you're able

00:24:13.500 --> 00:24:17.400
to have a semi -decent conversation. Right. As

00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:19.079
opposed to being like, oh, do you see that Cubs

00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:21.559
game? And instead he's just like, where's my

00:24:21.559 --> 00:24:23.980
cane? I want to get out of here. You know, and

00:24:23.980 --> 00:24:26.480
then that's just that's not good. Right. for

00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:30.220
anyone uh but um also developmental disorders

00:24:30.220 --> 00:24:33.039
so helps children adults that like are on the

00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:35.579
spectrum have autism right other right other

00:24:35.579 --> 00:24:41.440
things like that um but uh yeah i mean you know

00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:43.779
first of all for more information right you can

00:24:43.779 --> 00:24:45.599
contact the american music therapy association

00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:48.259
they have lots of good information there but

00:24:48.259 --> 00:24:52.720
i don't know for me personally uh music is huge

00:24:52.720 --> 00:24:56.630
it always has been uh more so than movies and

00:24:56.630 --> 00:25:00.589
shows and anything I could find on YouTube. It's

00:25:00.589 --> 00:25:03.329
just massive. And when you think about it, think

00:25:03.329 --> 00:25:06.650
of people that are big movie watchers. And I

00:25:06.650 --> 00:25:08.750
mean, there's the written word too, like reading

00:25:08.750 --> 00:25:11.549
and things like that. But that's completely different.

00:25:11.650 --> 00:25:13.750
Different parts of your brain are used and it's

00:25:13.750 --> 00:25:17.089
completely different. So like if I'm trying to

00:25:17.089 --> 00:25:18.829
get out of a bad mood, I'm not picking up a book.

00:25:18.910 --> 00:25:21.009
Right. Because I'm going to get two pages in

00:25:21.009 --> 00:25:22.529
and be like, fuck this book and just chuck it

00:25:22.529 --> 00:25:28.369
and then just be more mad. But for me, like say

00:25:28.369 --> 00:25:30.170
a movie, for example, because everybody knows

00:25:30.170 --> 00:25:32.109
I love movies. Hell, I've done a movie review

00:25:32.109 --> 00:25:35.289
for years. But when you think of almost every

00:25:35.289 --> 00:25:38.430
pivotal scene from all of your favorite movies,

00:25:38.769 --> 00:25:41.690
what do they all have in common? They have a

00:25:41.690 --> 00:25:45.509
backtrack. Right. There is a song that absolutely

00:25:45.509 --> 00:25:51.890
sets up every moment of that scene. from John

00:25:51.890 --> 00:25:56.650
Williams and Jaws, right? So you have that build

00:25:56.650 --> 00:26:00.329
-up. I mean, it's awesome. The amazing soundtrack

00:26:00.329 --> 00:26:05.369
to Pulp Fiction, for example, and so many other

00:26:05.369 --> 00:26:08.529
movies. The music sets it up. So that tells you

00:26:08.529 --> 00:26:10.690
the story right there because they understand

00:26:10.690 --> 00:26:14.589
that people that are invested in a story, now

00:26:14.589 --> 00:26:16.869
when you add that musical component, they know

00:26:16.869 --> 00:26:19.750
what it's doing to your brain. right it's either

00:26:19.750 --> 00:26:22.690
it's either going to be like this scene of tremendous

00:26:22.690 --> 00:26:26.390
loss so the the music is going to be very sad

00:26:26.390 --> 00:26:29.690
kind of like that god i'm trying to think who

00:26:29.690 --> 00:26:32.890
composed it was it hemski i can't remember who

00:26:32.890 --> 00:26:37.049
composed the gladiator but at the end spoiler

00:26:37.049 --> 00:26:40.589
alert when he dies and like there's that music

00:26:40.589 --> 00:26:43.190
and like he's joining his family who is who has

00:26:43.190 --> 00:26:47.970
passed like dude if you are human Your eyeballs

00:26:47.970 --> 00:26:49.910
are going to squirt a little bit. It's just,

00:26:49.950 --> 00:26:53.410
and that music sets it up. Take that music out

00:26:53.410 --> 00:26:55.890
of that scene completely. You're not having the

00:26:55.890 --> 00:26:57.490
same emotion. I don't care what anybody says.

00:26:57.690 --> 00:27:00.269
Yeah. You're just not. And there's a lot of other

00:27:00.269 --> 00:27:03.990
movies like that. Rocky. That was composed brilliantly.

00:27:04.130 --> 00:27:06.009
Obviously, he won all the awards, like, forever.

00:27:06.170 --> 00:27:09.170
Right. And he should have. Because, once again,

00:27:09.329 --> 00:27:13.569
otherwise it's just, you know. this flashy black

00:27:13.569 --> 00:27:16.349
boxer and this white looking thug dude and they're

00:27:16.349 --> 00:27:18.569
just punching each other yeah you know but you

00:27:18.569 --> 00:27:20.849
add the music and the suspense and the build

00:27:20.849 --> 00:27:24.049
-up and it made it a great movie so for me that's

00:27:24.049 --> 00:27:27.230
that music is that man and like i more than a

00:27:27.230 --> 00:27:30.049
book or more than the movie itself like music

00:27:30.049 --> 00:27:33.589
can transport me like if i'm sometimes and i

00:27:33.589 --> 00:27:36.970
said this a little bit earlier sometimes if i'm

00:27:36.970 --> 00:27:40.329
if i'm in a sad mood or i'm thinking about things

00:27:40.329 --> 00:27:43.819
that made me sad I'm listening to like Nutshell

00:27:43.819 --> 00:27:46.140
by Alice in Chains. I'm listening to other songs

00:27:46.140 --> 00:27:49.859
that are sad. But the thing is, it's like, oh,

00:27:49.900 --> 00:27:51.640
don't do that. You know, if you're already in

00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:53.400
that mindset, that's not the thing. But that

00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:57.480
helps. Like it gets me through. I cannot explain

00:27:57.480 --> 00:27:59.019
it. I'm not going to sit there and listen to

00:27:59.019 --> 00:28:01.079
Katrina in the waves. I'm walking on sunshine.

00:28:01.220 --> 00:28:04.579
I would probably throw my computer out the window.

00:28:05.220 --> 00:28:09.789
But for whatever reason. I think it's like, I

00:28:09.789 --> 00:28:11.029
don't know, there's an old saying called misery

00:28:11.029 --> 00:28:13.329
loves company. Sure. But it's just kind of like

00:28:13.329 --> 00:28:14.930
if you're in that mood and then you're listening

00:28:14.930 --> 00:28:17.549
to other artists lyrically and through their

00:28:17.549 --> 00:28:19.609
music, they're talking about things, whether

00:28:19.609 --> 00:28:21.549
it's Alice in Chains or it's Tool or somebody

00:28:21.549 --> 00:28:23.630
else, and you sit there and you listen to the

00:28:23.630 --> 00:28:25.970
music and you listen to the lyrics, and then

00:28:25.970 --> 00:28:27.710
like you're sad for a while, but then all of

00:28:27.710 --> 00:28:29.930
a sudden you are no longer sad. So whatever it

00:28:29.930 --> 00:28:34.029
is that listening to music that matches your

00:28:34.029 --> 00:28:37.589
mood does, it just works. Yeah. I cannot explain.

00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:42.799
Yeah, and conversely, I really don't listen to

00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:48.059
a lot of sad music necessarily, or at least sad

00:28:48.059 --> 00:28:54.039
-toned music. It's just not my jive. But lyrically,

00:28:54.220 --> 00:28:58.559
I totally get that, especially grunge rock as

00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:03.039
compared to punk rock that's more... mad at the

00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:05.500
system and grunge rock is more introspective

00:29:05.500 --> 00:29:09.059
like damn I'm not doing so hot buddy right and

00:29:09.059 --> 00:29:12.460
you can kind of separate the the tone of the

00:29:12.460 --> 00:29:14.799
song from the lyrics of the song and fit it to

00:29:14.799 --> 00:29:18.039
however you're feeling or you know build your

00:29:18.039 --> 00:29:22.640
own playlist around it and I I feel like my brain

00:29:22.640 --> 00:29:26.000
almost works kind of in the opposite way where

00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:29.640
if I'm like really down on myself I almost don't

00:29:29.640 --> 00:29:33.420
want to listen to like much sad -toned music

00:29:33.420 --> 00:29:37.000
at all. I'll just throw on something more casual.

00:29:37.460 --> 00:29:40.740
Neutral. Yeah, more neutral. But I don't know.

00:29:40.839 --> 00:29:42.700
I don't know if that's a brain chemistry thing,

00:29:42.859 --> 00:29:46.400
but I think it all kind of boils down to everyone

00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:50.839
kind of interprets and experiences art in different

00:29:50.839 --> 00:29:54.279
ways. Yeah, oh yeah. You know, and of course

00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:57.140
music being an art, like you had kind of mentioned

00:29:57.140 --> 00:30:01.799
earlier, that can be... enjoyed or experienced

00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:07.339
in a different mental capacity yeah because you

00:30:07.339 --> 00:30:11.599
can't quote unquote like idly watch a movie right

00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:13.859
but you can idly listen to something and do 10

00:30:13.859 --> 00:30:17.200
other things yes you can so i think that's kind

00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:20.180
of why not that i'm a doctor but i feel like

00:30:20.180 --> 00:30:23.680
that's kind of why music is so versatile in the

00:30:23.680 --> 00:30:28.950
uh like the therapy side of things is like oh

00:30:28.950 --> 00:30:30.769
for sure you can do a dozen things while you're

00:30:30.769 --> 00:30:34.309
listening to an album right doing chores or whatever

00:30:34.309 --> 00:30:36.390
and you can sit there and have music on in the

00:30:36.390 --> 00:30:39.750
background whereas if you're into a movie you're

00:30:39.750 --> 00:30:41.289
just into the movie right that's what you're

00:30:41.289 --> 00:30:44.009
doing yeah yeah yeah that's very interesting

00:30:44.009 --> 00:30:47.890
um but yeah you find folks out there let let

00:30:47.890 --> 00:30:52.569
me know how music um impacts you um and your

00:30:52.569 --> 00:30:54.890
and your mood whether you're whether you're sad

00:30:54.890 --> 00:30:58.289
or you're happy or whatever, and if music is

00:30:58.289 --> 00:31:03.269
more the cause of many of your moods or you match

00:31:03.269 --> 00:31:07.390
the music to fit your current mood. I mean, there's

00:31:07.390 --> 00:31:09.930
a lot of different directions there. Right, absolutely.

00:31:10.670 --> 00:31:14.390
And I even have, like, different playlists. Well,

00:31:14.509 --> 00:31:16.589
damn, I've got dozens of different playlists

00:31:16.589 --> 00:31:20.539
that I've kind of self -curated. on my phone,

00:31:20.660 --> 00:31:23.019
but that's kind of half because I like a bunch

00:31:23.019 --> 00:31:25.819
of different genres, and if I shuffle everything,

00:31:26.259 --> 00:31:29.220
it's like getting whiplash. You'll jump from,

00:31:29.220 --> 00:31:35.480
I don't know, like a Tchaikovsky composition

00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:38.039
straight to Rage Against the Machine. It's like,

00:31:38.119 --> 00:31:40.180
how the hell did that happen? Right, exactly.

00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:45.400
But yeah, I totally curate different moods and

00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:50.059
genre -style playlists. And I don't know. Let

00:31:50.059 --> 00:31:52.579
us let us know in the comments. Lovely listener.

00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:56.519
I'm sure all the music enjoyers out there do

00:31:56.519 --> 00:31:58.220
something similar or maybe you've got different

00:31:58.220 --> 00:32:00.880
processes. Yeah, for sure. Different thoughts.

00:32:00.940 --> 00:32:03.680
I would love to hear it. Yeah, for sure. All

00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:05.859
right. We're going to take a quick break when

00:32:05.859 --> 00:32:07.619
we come back. We got a great show for you today.

00:32:08.380 --> 00:32:11.359
I have a very fun. Southside Theater, you guys

00:32:11.359 --> 00:32:14.140
are going to love that. We are finally taking

00:32:14.140 --> 00:32:16.799
the Jeff Daniels Challenge in our final Other

00:32:16.799 --> 00:32:21.119
Foods segment today. I think we have a fun beer

00:32:21.119 --> 00:32:24.900
to try. I think you guys will like that. Aiden

00:32:24.900 --> 00:32:29.079
has prepared yet another tier list, so I'm definitely

00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:34.319
looking forward to that. We've got, oh, our top

00:32:34.319 --> 00:32:37.089
ten list. You just made the list. That one is

00:32:37.089 --> 00:32:40.190
definitely going to be fun. It's going to be

00:32:40.190 --> 00:32:43.130
automotive, so we'll drop that little hint for

00:32:43.130 --> 00:32:45.430
you. And then, of course, down the Reddit rabbit

00:32:45.430 --> 00:32:48.009
hole and while you were sleeping and much more.

00:32:48.150 --> 00:32:51.910
So we'll take that quick break, and we'll be

00:32:51.910 --> 00:33:01.769
right back with a little Carpe Diem. All right,

00:33:01.769 --> 00:33:04.799
we are back from break. Mark Moe Show. I'm your

00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:07.000
host, Mark Maloney, along with Aiden Maloney.

00:33:07.259 --> 00:33:10.460
And we are now on to Carpe Diem. That's right.

00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:12.839
You fine, beautiful folks send us your DMs, and

00:33:12.839 --> 00:33:15.759
we read them on the show. And if they're in the

00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:17.700
form of a question, well, I think we'll, well,

00:33:17.859 --> 00:33:22.799
well, I... Hmm. Hmm. We'll consider hearing you

00:33:22.799 --> 00:33:27.299
out. We will. Should you give us some money.

00:33:28.549 --> 00:33:30.109
It's pretty straightforward this week, yeah.

00:33:30.190 --> 00:33:33.130
No sugarcoating it. Give us the cash. Put the

00:33:33.130 --> 00:33:36.369
money in the fucking bag and then ask your question.

00:33:36.710 --> 00:33:40.789
Right, exactly. That's really as simple as it

00:33:40.789 --> 00:33:43.009
gets. Now, it does mean we're going to answer

00:33:43.009 --> 00:33:45.609
properly or correct. This is true. Should you

00:33:45.609 --> 00:33:47.289
straight? We don't know what we're talking about.

00:33:47.670 --> 00:33:49.769
Nah, most times we don't. But, you know, whatever.

00:33:49.970 --> 00:33:51.650
It is what it is. You're the one giving us the

00:33:51.650 --> 00:33:55.269
money. So, anyway, I got a couple of DMs here.

00:33:55.789 --> 00:33:59.609
The first one is from at kindofbadleroybrown.

00:34:00.869 --> 00:34:04.829
So, kindofbad says, Mo Show, what am I supposed

00:34:04.829 --> 00:34:08.929
to do? My best friend's girl is sleeping with

00:34:08.929 --> 00:34:13.110
my brother. Should I just whoop his ass? Damn.

00:34:13.190 --> 00:34:19.090
Okay, so best friend's girl sleeps with kindofbad's

00:34:19.090 --> 00:34:22.710
brother. Yep. Damn. Well, first and foremost,

00:34:23.030 --> 00:34:25.460
I want to make it very clear. Your brother's

00:34:25.460 --> 00:34:28.119
an asshole, but I don't think he's the problem.

00:34:28.500 --> 00:34:30.619
It's your best friend girl that's cheating on

00:34:30.619 --> 00:34:33.559
him. Right. Your brother's just the guy she's

00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:36.780
cheating with. Yeah, that's a thing, man. First

00:34:36.780 --> 00:34:39.840
of all, I'd let your best friend know. Yep. I

00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:44.420
would give your brother a hearty slap in the

00:34:44.420 --> 00:34:48.570
face. Just like, you're an asshole. Yeah. But

00:34:48.570 --> 00:34:51.110
quite frankly, I think it's homegirl's problem.

00:34:51.309 --> 00:34:55.150
I think she is the issue and needs to be eradicated

00:34:55.150 --> 00:34:59.449
from best friend's life. I think that's fair.

00:34:59.829 --> 00:35:02.389
That's my assessment. Because, I mean, let's

00:35:02.389 --> 00:35:05.130
face it, they're messing up the whole dynamic

00:35:05.130 --> 00:35:08.130
there. Oh, yeah. All of it. Family, friendships,

00:35:08.389 --> 00:35:11.789
all of it. Right in the toilet. Yeah. Wow. But

00:35:11.789 --> 00:35:14.730
she's the cheater. He's just the guy, you know.

00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:17.440
That's not to say he's not part of the problem.

00:35:17.719 --> 00:35:20.960
He could be, too. But here's the thing. Hypothetically,

00:35:21.159 --> 00:35:24.139
she eventually leaves the friend for the brother.

00:35:24.500 --> 00:35:27.380
Your friendship's toast. Oh, yeah. It's done.

00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:30.360
Because that's your brother. And if he sees your

00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.199
brother, he's going to be... Them's fighting

00:35:33.199 --> 00:35:35.380
words. They're going to have a quote -unquote

00:35:35.380 --> 00:35:39.840
air quotes talk. Yeah. Out back behind an Arby's.

00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:42.820
Yeah, that's about right. That is about right.

00:35:43.449 --> 00:35:48.670
That's bad news, dude. Yeah. I would say find

00:35:48.670 --> 00:35:54.769
a better friend and then, like, it's your brother.

00:35:54.929 --> 00:35:59.030
And so you can whoop his ass. Yeah. You know,

00:35:59.070 --> 00:36:01.769
you can definitely whoop his ass. Or if he's

00:36:01.769 --> 00:36:03.809
much tougher than you, which could be the case,

00:36:04.030 --> 00:36:07.030
tell your old man what he's doing. Let him whoop

00:36:07.030 --> 00:36:10.829
his ass. There we go. Yep. I know when I was

00:36:10.829 --> 00:36:12.570
out of line, my dad used to be like, oh, you

00:36:12.570 --> 00:36:16.190
want to box? Because normally we would box. We

00:36:16.190 --> 00:36:18.349
would spar. That's how I learned from Golden

00:36:18.349 --> 00:36:23.030
Gloves quality sweet Mickey. And every time I

00:36:23.030 --> 00:36:25.250
got bopped once on the head, fell on the floor,

00:36:25.489 --> 00:36:28.550
he'd always go, you all right? Uh -huh. Do you

00:36:28.550 --> 00:36:31.590
know why you're laying down there? Uh -huh. All

00:36:31.590 --> 00:36:33.869
right. He'd help me out. He'd be like, you got

00:36:33.869 --> 00:36:35.909
bopped on the head. It's like, well, one of the

00:36:35.909 --> 00:36:38.280
field mice bopping him on the head. Got bopped

00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:40.579
on the head because I was a smartass. I learned

00:36:40.579 --> 00:36:43.139
eventually. Yeah, I did. Caught on to it. Don't

00:36:43.139 --> 00:36:45.659
be a smartass. You won't get bopped on the head.

00:36:45.760 --> 00:36:48.440
It's a shack. It's fine. But it sounds like your

00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:51.300
brother needs a bop on the head. Yeah. At and

00:36:51.300 --> 00:36:56.300
I'm Bernice. Hi. This is terrible. I'm the ugliest

00:36:56.300 --> 00:37:00.000
of four sisters. Oh, God. It is okay. I'm incredibly

00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:06.070
self -aware. I kind of like her now. My sisters

00:37:06.070 --> 00:37:09.670
are tens and I'm a six on a good day. However,

00:37:09.829 --> 00:37:13.250
I am clearly the most fun and funniest of the

00:37:13.250 --> 00:37:16.570
bunch. Oh, and I've slept with all of their boyfriends.

00:37:16.769 --> 00:37:19.869
So I guess maybe I really am the best sister.

00:37:20.349 --> 00:37:25.530
Damn. Wow. First of all, gamer. That's problematic.

00:37:25.530 --> 00:37:28.269
Game respects game, dude. That is problematic.

00:37:30.110 --> 00:37:37.210
Yikers. Your self -awareness is inspiring. Keep

00:37:37.210 --> 00:37:41.670
up the good work. But, yo, problematic. Yeah.

00:37:42.429 --> 00:37:44.610
Now, she isn't saying she's currently sleeping

00:37:44.610 --> 00:37:46.630
with them. She could have slept with them before.

00:37:47.010 --> 00:37:49.489
Oh, this is true. Maybe. She didn't explain that.

00:37:50.070 --> 00:37:53.110
Yeah. But even in a way, that's even better.

00:37:53.190 --> 00:37:56.429
Like, if the 10s are getting the 6s sloppy seconds.

00:37:57.070 --> 00:38:00.090
Like, that's even better. Kind of like, yeah,

00:38:00.110 --> 00:38:04.010
girl, I've been there. Baller maneuver. So there

00:38:04.010 --> 00:38:05.929
is some context we're missing. Yes. Clearly.

00:38:05.949 --> 00:38:11.210
Important context, I'd say. But kind of sounds

00:38:11.210 --> 00:38:14.170
like she's a baller and might be the best sister.

00:38:14.769 --> 00:38:17.050
She's Bernice, goddammit. She's Bernice. Way

00:38:17.050 --> 00:38:22.030
to go, Bernice. At Newbie Boozy. Sup, guys. Love

00:38:22.030 --> 00:38:24.469
your show. I am 30 years old and new to the bar

00:38:24.469 --> 00:38:28.230
scene. Really, no kidding. What are your go -to

00:38:28.230 --> 00:38:31.519
drinks? How do I hook up with chicks? I'm tired

00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:33.619
of being alone. Wow, that escalated quickly.

00:38:33.920 --> 00:38:35.579
Yeah, that took a left turn there, brother. Holy

00:38:35.579 --> 00:38:40.980
jeepers. Well, first time drinker, you're probably

00:38:40.980 --> 00:38:46.019
not going to go for whiskey neat. That's probably

00:38:46.019 --> 00:38:48.599
not going to be your first go -to. Trust me,

00:38:48.639 --> 00:38:52.579
there's no shame in getting fruity drinks. Don't

00:38:52.579 --> 00:38:56.320
let those machismo -filled, roided -up pieces

00:38:56.320 --> 00:38:59.280
of shit tell you otherwise. If you want a Cosmo,

00:38:59.320 --> 00:39:02.460
get a Cosmo. They taste wonderful. You want a

00:39:02.460 --> 00:39:04.380
strawberry daiquiri? Get a damn daiquiri. It

00:39:04.380 --> 00:39:08.460
tastes wonderful. That can be your intro to drinks.

00:39:08.559 --> 00:39:14.980
Get a daiquiri. Get a lager. I'm also going to

00:39:14.980 --> 00:39:18.300
encourage that the first time you go out, if

00:39:18.300 --> 00:39:21.619
you have a friend you trust, go out with that

00:39:21.619 --> 00:39:24.000
friend. Don't get sloshed on your first day.

00:39:24.179 --> 00:39:26.380
Right. And go to that friend and be like, hey.

00:39:26.780 --> 00:39:28.079
You know, I'm going to go to the bar or whatever,

00:39:28.260 --> 00:39:30.579
and I don't drink, but now I'm going to have

00:39:30.579 --> 00:39:33.079
some drinks or whatever. I need a wingman I can

00:39:33.079 --> 00:39:36.599
trust if I get stupid. Right. Smart. That's always

00:39:36.599 --> 00:39:39.079
a good play because you don't know how you're

00:39:39.079 --> 00:39:41.219
going to react. People have different tolerances.

00:39:41.619 --> 00:39:44.119
You could go out and you could just have a naturally

00:39:44.119 --> 00:39:46.699
high tolerance depending on your metabolism and

00:39:46.699 --> 00:39:49.340
get four, five, six drinks in and be fine, and

00:39:49.340 --> 00:39:50.960
your friend probably thinks you're superhuman.

00:39:51.119 --> 00:39:55.780
Right. It's possible. I'm just saying because

00:39:55.780 --> 00:39:58.460
you don't know what you don't know. Or you could

00:39:58.460 --> 00:40:00.880
be trashed after two. Or you could be. And you

00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:02.420
could accidentally discover that you're a sad

00:40:02.420 --> 00:40:04.480
drunk and just start crying at the bar. That

00:40:04.480 --> 00:40:06.380
is also possible. Hey, the more you know, just

00:40:06.380 --> 00:40:08.719
stick with pot. Right. Well, right, exactly.

00:40:09.000 --> 00:40:10.840
You know, then you're just going to get the munchies

00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:14.059
and fall asleep. Yeah. So that's probably a better

00:40:14.059 --> 00:40:18.119
play. Yeah, so my go -to drinks, here's what

00:40:18.119 --> 00:40:21.880
I'd recommend. I like beer. I can drink about

00:40:21.880 --> 00:40:24.360
six or seven at a sitting. And be like, I'm drinking

00:40:24.360 --> 00:40:26.360
soda pop. They just have zero effect on you.

00:40:27.119 --> 00:40:29.960
So I would encourage maybe two or three lights.

00:40:30.940 --> 00:40:33.960
If you're going to do a shot, say, hey, let me

00:40:33.960 --> 00:40:36.659
buy a shot for your first. Take like a, what

00:40:36.659 --> 00:40:38.360
do they call that? Like a lemon, lemon drop.

00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:40.519
Lemon drop, sure. A lemon drop's a good one.

00:40:40.559 --> 00:40:42.619
There's a few that are like very low alcohol

00:40:42.619 --> 00:40:45.420
content that you could take. I would recommend

00:40:45.420 --> 00:40:49.380
doing that. Now, there's some people that are

00:40:49.380 --> 00:40:51.570
going to be like, hey, man. Let's have a couple

00:40:51.570 --> 00:40:54.070
of pints of Guinness and a shot of Malort. That's

00:40:54.070 --> 00:40:56.349
probably hitting the gas. Yeah. It's probably

00:40:56.349 --> 00:40:58.869
hitting the gas a little bit too hard. I can

00:40:58.869 --> 00:41:01.530
do that. I am a seasoned veteran. Yeah, we're

00:41:01.530 --> 00:41:04.010
champions of Malort and Guinness. We definitely

00:41:04.010 --> 00:41:09.210
are. That is our scene. But for you, my fine

00:41:09.210 --> 00:41:14.329
sir, I would keep it easy, especially addressing

00:41:14.329 --> 00:41:16.789
your second point. If you're interested in meeting

00:41:16.789 --> 00:41:19.269
a girl, you probably don't want to be a first

00:41:19.269 --> 00:41:21.949
-time drunk. That's not going to work out really

00:41:21.949 --> 00:41:25.329
well for you. And how to hook up with chicks.

00:41:25.530 --> 00:41:28.500
Look, dude. We had a whole Riz 101 episode about

00:41:28.500 --> 00:41:31.300
that. We had a Riz 101, okay? And it wasn't specifically,

00:41:31.300 --> 00:41:33.920
like, how to hook up with chicks. It was, like,

00:41:33.940 --> 00:41:38.940
just how to meet them. Sure. And show your interest.

00:41:39.260 --> 00:41:42.579
It was more along the lines of what we were doing

00:41:42.579 --> 00:41:45.460
with that. It wasn't like, hey, what are the

00:41:45.460 --> 00:41:47.360
easiest ways to, like, hook up with a chick?

00:41:47.539 --> 00:41:51.719
Now, could I have had that show? Yes. 100 % I

00:41:51.719 --> 00:41:55.360
could have had that show. I'm good at that. But

00:41:55.360 --> 00:42:00.199
I don't advocate that necessarily. Although if

00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:01.519
you've got a girl ready to go, I'm not going

00:42:01.519 --> 00:42:04.239
to tell you no either. I'm just going to say

00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:07.039
be yourself. Don't get really drunk. Have a friend

00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:10.579
you trust. And if you meet a girl, cool. Don't

00:42:10.579 --> 00:42:13.880
be weird. Don't be weird. Be genuine. Be interesting.

00:42:14.400 --> 00:42:17.219
And importantly, be interested in what she's

00:42:17.219 --> 00:42:20.559
talking about. And see last week's show. Find

00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:23.579
a way where you guys can somehow... quote -unquote

00:42:23.579 --> 00:42:27.019
meet up again, and then advance the situation.

00:42:27.019 --> 00:42:29.000
Sure, get a snap, get a phone number, whatever.

00:42:29.639 --> 00:42:34.219
That's it. So don't go for the gold on your first

00:42:34.219 --> 00:42:37.420
night, my guy. That probably won't end particularly

00:42:37.420 --> 00:42:40.679
well for you. Yeah. Not going to work. And anyway,

00:42:40.760 --> 00:42:43.559
my last one, at stonerstanley420, our buddy,

00:42:43.719 --> 00:42:47.840
stonerstanley, he says, oh, my God, Momo and

00:42:47.840 --> 00:42:51.760
Alan. I'll be the men of times. Why, thank you.

00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:58.400
Wow. Funny story. That's what he said. I was

00:42:58.400 --> 00:43:02.880
in the water too many times, and this fish was

00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:07.579
there. Ha, so funny. Why are you in my bathtub,

00:43:07.739 --> 00:43:14.000
man? What the hell? What is he doing? I don't

00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:17.619
think... He doesn't have a bathtub. That I know

00:43:17.619 --> 00:43:20.260
of. I'm assuming because he lives in a van down

00:43:20.260 --> 00:43:22.500
by the river. The river is his bathtub. The river

00:43:22.500 --> 00:43:25.239
is his bathtub. And that's why there's a fish

00:43:25.239 --> 00:43:26.400
there. And there's the fish in there, right.

00:43:26.940 --> 00:43:30.079
Oh, Stanley. You know, he means well. And we

00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:33.019
are the, all be the men of times. Apparently.

00:43:33.639 --> 00:43:35.539
One of the nicest compliments I've gotten in

00:43:35.539 --> 00:43:38.400
a while. I would say so. I think that needs to

00:43:38.400 --> 00:43:40.420
be the tag to the show. I think I am the men

00:43:40.420 --> 00:43:42.579
of times. The Mark Mosho, the men of times. The

00:43:42.579 --> 00:43:45.760
men of times. Why, thank you, Stan. Coming to

00:43:45.760 --> 00:43:50.059
a theater near you. Oh, Stanley. God bless his

00:43:50.059 --> 00:43:53.000
soul. Oh, what a dude. What a dude. That is my

00:43:53.000 --> 00:43:55.139
last one for this week. What do you got? I got

00:43:55.139 --> 00:43:59.519
a DM here from Trashed Boy Jr. Oh, I wonder if

00:43:59.519 --> 00:44:02.739
he knows Stoner Stanley. They went to schools

00:44:02.739 --> 00:44:07.079
together. What do you worry about most regarding

00:44:07.079 --> 00:44:12.699
Gen Alpha? Wow. That's a... Oh, jeez. That is

00:44:12.699 --> 00:44:17.079
a good question. I know there's the whole stereotype

00:44:17.079 --> 00:44:20.800
of iPad kids, right? Yeah. And that is kind of

00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:24.619
worrisome just because, I mean, realistically

00:44:24.619 --> 00:44:27.840
in human history, the Internet is still so new.

00:44:28.000 --> 00:44:34.400
And the corporatism of social media is so new.

00:44:34.639 --> 00:44:40.500
And I worry about kids not being able to discern

00:44:40.500 --> 00:44:45.780
online life from real life. from ai from reality

00:44:45.780 --> 00:44:50.880
sure um and and also like the global loneliness

00:44:50.880 --> 00:44:54.920
epidemic yeah i feel like kind of stems from

00:44:54.920 --> 00:45:02.199
this social media plague if you will and these

00:45:02.199 --> 00:45:05.900
kids are just born into it and three years old

00:45:05.900 --> 00:45:08.500
they're scrolling on ipads and tiktok and shit

00:45:08.500 --> 00:45:11.610
i'm like I remember being three years old and

00:45:11.610 --> 00:45:13.690
I was just like playing under a pine tree or

00:45:13.690 --> 00:45:17.570
something. Right. Yeah, you did. It is worrisome.

00:45:18.269 --> 00:45:22.170
You know, okay. Unpopular opinions, maybe. I

00:45:22.170 --> 00:45:28.449
don't know. I'm part of Gen X. And we're kind

00:45:28.449 --> 00:45:32.090
of, I would maybe classify us as the black sheep

00:45:32.090 --> 00:45:36.570
generation. But I think we wear that as a badge.

00:45:37.529 --> 00:45:40.469
proudly uh that we're that way i think we're

00:45:40.469 --> 00:45:42.730
maybe the most self -aware generation of all

00:45:42.730 --> 00:45:45.010
of them we know who we are and we just don't

00:45:45.010 --> 00:45:47.969
give a shit and we stopped caring about a lot

00:45:47.969 --> 00:45:51.349
um once again generalization but that's kind

00:45:51.349 --> 00:45:55.710
of what this is about um i look at alpha and

00:45:55.710 --> 00:46:01.289
what i see is vapid i just see a void i see nothing

00:46:01.289 --> 00:46:04.630
and really if you're gen alpha and you're like

00:46:04.630 --> 00:46:07.329
what a dick This is a generalization. Maybe you're

00:46:07.329 --> 00:46:10.989
a kid that's got goals and is proactive and all

00:46:10.989 --> 00:46:14.489
of that. Largely as a generation, I don't see

00:46:14.489 --> 00:46:18.429
it. I see you guys very selfish. You're kind

00:46:18.429 --> 00:46:22.809
of in your own bubbles. I don't see millennials

00:46:22.809 --> 00:46:28.130
and Gen Zers the same way. I see Gen Zers being

00:46:28.130 --> 00:46:32.050
more similar to Gen X. between millennials and

00:46:32.050 --> 00:46:35.269
gen alphas that like in 10 years time they're

00:46:35.269 --> 00:46:36.710
going to be like oh my god we're just like them

00:46:36.710 --> 00:46:42.989
that's exactly what i feel right now um i don't

00:46:42.989 --> 00:46:47.530
tend to see alphas with a ton of drive um yeah

00:46:47.530 --> 00:46:50.389
i mean that's just kind of like i said once again

00:46:50.389 --> 00:46:54.210
broad generalization but yes i'm answering this

00:46:54.210 --> 00:46:58.300
is true you know so that's just kind of how how

00:46:58.300 --> 00:47:02.579
I look at it. I just look at them as these fleshy

00:47:02.579 --> 00:47:05.940
things that exist without a ton of drive, without

00:47:05.940 --> 00:47:09.320
a ton of like, you know, we want to do this,

00:47:09.340 --> 00:47:11.000
we want to do that, we want to make the world

00:47:11.000 --> 00:47:14.099
a better place. They're just kind of like, I

00:47:14.099 --> 00:47:16.579
want my safe space and I want to be left alone

00:47:16.579 --> 00:47:19.320
with my own little group of people and whatever

00:47:19.320 --> 00:47:23.280
and just laugh at dumb memes and videos. And

00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:26.320
that's all I see out of them. And I hope they're

00:47:26.320 --> 00:47:28.519
young enough, or I hope for more. I hope they

00:47:28.519 --> 00:47:30.980
evolve. There's plenty of time for them to do

00:47:30.980 --> 00:47:36.340
that. But I look at millennials and Z -ers much

00:47:36.340 --> 00:47:39.500
differently than I do at Alpha. I mean, we came

00:47:39.500 --> 00:47:43.539
up with a comic bit based on Gen Alpha, and his

00:47:43.539 --> 00:47:46.880
name is GamerKid10. Yeah, this is true. And he

00:47:46.880 --> 00:47:51.619
is the poster boy for that generation. This is

00:47:51.619 --> 00:47:54.250
true. I've always had this fear, too, of the

00:47:54.250 --> 00:48:00.630
dissolving of the arts as we know them with AI

00:48:00.630 --> 00:48:04.269
stealing artists' jobs and Hollywood movies and

00:48:04.269 --> 00:48:08.789
shit being made in part or fully by AI. Does

00:48:08.789 --> 00:48:13.809
Gen Alpha have creative tendencies? Are they

00:48:13.809 --> 00:48:19.949
too young to be like, oh, I want to be a pianist

00:48:19.949 --> 00:48:24.099
when I grow up? Or is the constant death spiral

00:48:24.099 --> 00:48:27.800
of capitalism, we know it's destroying artists'

00:48:28.019 --> 00:48:32.300
lives and livelihoods. Yeah. So is Gen A going

00:48:32.300 --> 00:48:35.480
to be the first generation to purely be consumers

00:48:35.480 --> 00:48:39.219
of content and not creators? It's possible. It's

00:48:39.219 --> 00:48:42.360
a fear. Yeah. It is a fear of mine. Yeah, oh,

00:48:42.460 --> 00:48:45.980
for sure. I mean, I look at just creators largely

00:48:45.980 --> 00:48:48.690
today, and I look at... Say your top 20 or top

00:48:48.690 --> 00:48:51.769
30 creators that are out there, and I would hazard

00:48:51.769 --> 00:48:56.230
a guess 90 % of them are exer -millennials, that

00:48:56.230 --> 00:48:58.110
they fall in there. Those are who your creators

00:48:58.110 --> 00:49:01.429
are. Interesting. Largely. When you go right

00:49:01.429 --> 00:49:05.030
down the list, that's exactly what it is. And

00:49:05.030 --> 00:49:07.329
it just seems like the younger it goes, the more

00:49:07.329 --> 00:49:10.269
they're consuming and less creating. So I think

00:49:10.269 --> 00:49:13.050
there's a lot to be said for that. Damn. I really

00:49:13.050 --> 00:49:15.409
do. Let us know in the comments, lovely listeners.

00:49:15.570 --> 00:49:18.039
Yeah, absolutely. What do you think about Gen

00:49:18.039 --> 00:49:20.739
A? Or perhaps are we being unfair? Maybe some

00:49:20.739 --> 00:49:22.579
of these could be thrown right back at us. Let

00:49:22.579 --> 00:49:25.239
us know. It's possible. But I'm a Gen X, so either

00:49:25.239 --> 00:49:29.139
way, I won't give a shit. Weather Carl checked

00:49:29.139 --> 00:49:33.539
in. Besides, quote, Italian Plumber, what are

00:49:33.539 --> 00:49:36.119
some other video game characters you could describe

00:49:36.119 --> 00:49:39.519
without saying their name? A video game character

00:49:39.519 --> 00:49:41.980
you could describe without saying their name.

00:49:42.119 --> 00:49:46.480
Yeah. Well, Italian Plumber, clearly Mario. Yeah.

00:49:47.050 --> 00:49:54.969
I'd say blue blur, blue hedgehog. Oh, yeah. Just

00:49:54.969 --> 00:49:58.869
with a sound. Pac -Man, yeah. I'm yellow and

00:49:58.869 --> 00:50:01.869
I eat dots and fruit. Yeah, awesome. Awesome.

00:50:02.250 --> 00:50:04.869
Getting so fat. I get chased by ghosts, dude.

00:50:05.070 --> 00:50:10.969
I'm just a mouth. That's it. Oh, gosh. I'm an

00:50:10.969 --> 00:50:13.469
angry monkey who stole a babe. Come get me, dude.

00:50:13.849 --> 00:50:16.110
I love throwing barrels. I love throwing barrels.

00:50:16.210 --> 00:50:19.429
I'm a fucking gorilla. I'm a gorilla named after

00:50:19.429 --> 00:50:23.309
a different animal. Wow, I like to hop around

00:50:23.309 --> 00:50:25.789
a lot, man, but my pond is on the other side

00:50:25.789 --> 00:50:27.849
of this really busy highway. Oh, well, here we

00:50:27.849 --> 00:50:29.969
go. I was just about to do a frogger one, too.

00:50:30.110 --> 00:50:32.650
Here we go. I'm green and I run through traffic.

00:50:35.110 --> 00:50:37.469
That's perfect. That's perfect. It's kind of

00:50:37.469 --> 00:50:39.820
fun. It is fun. I'm sure there's more, but I

00:50:39.820 --> 00:50:41.559
feel like most of them would have to be, like,

00:50:41.639 --> 00:50:45.199
from the old days of gaming. When you really

00:50:45.199 --> 00:50:48.420
had, like, video game characters. Right. Yeah,

00:50:48.440 --> 00:50:52.440
I don't think you could describe Michael DeSanta

00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:58.179
in, like, oh, rich man witness protection. It's

00:50:58.179 --> 00:51:01.019
like, I don't know. That could be anyone. Right?

00:51:01.199 --> 00:51:05.559
Exactly. Yeah. I mean. Yeah, like us thugs are

00:51:05.559 --> 00:51:07.280
all kind of running around this place. It looks

00:51:07.280 --> 00:51:11.579
a lot like Los Angeles. Yeah. Well, okay. Then

00:51:11.579 --> 00:51:13.960
it could be any one of the three. It could be

00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:16.380
any one of the three. Well, although Vice City

00:51:16.380 --> 00:51:19.760
is Miami. This is true. Let's see. Vice City

00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:23.480
is Miami. Los Santos is LA. Liberty City. Liberty

00:51:23.480 --> 00:51:25.460
City is New York. Philadelphia. Or Philly. It's

00:51:25.460 --> 00:51:27.519
Philly. Right, right, right. What are they going

00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:29.460
to do with Chicago one, man? That would be awesome.

00:51:29.599 --> 00:51:32.719
Are you kidding me? Dude. That'd be lit. Yeah.

00:51:33.420 --> 00:51:35.900
Call it, call the city Midway or something like

00:51:35.900 --> 00:51:37.820
that. Yeah. I'm sure they could find a name for

00:51:37.820 --> 00:51:39.860
it. South Shore. Well, no, we're on the South

00:51:39.860 --> 00:51:42.159
Shore. We're on the South Shore. Yeah. Yeah.

00:51:42.739 --> 00:51:46.019
They'll find something. Yeah. Get with it, Rockstar.

00:51:46.039 --> 00:51:48.199
Get with it, Rockstar. It only took you like

00:51:48.199 --> 00:51:51.920
a dozen years to... To actually make a GTA 6.

00:51:52.139 --> 00:51:55.739
Oh, my God. Last DM I got here today from Krippy

00:51:55.739 --> 00:52:00.920
Gru. Krip. With no genre specifically, who's

00:52:00.920 --> 00:52:03.880
the GOAT? Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan. Yeah.

00:52:04.360 --> 00:52:06.619
That's, yeah. Who's the goat? Michael Jordan.

00:52:07.420 --> 00:52:10.159
That's the first one that comes to mind. Abraham

00:52:10.159 --> 00:52:13.420
Lincoln. You could say that. He's a goat. Yeah.

00:52:14.139 --> 00:52:18.960
Yeah. I cannot argue that one. Not one bit. No.

00:52:19.019 --> 00:52:22.219
Those are two excellent ones. Bo Burnham. He's

00:52:22.219 --> 00:52:25.480
a goat. Wow. I don't know if I would, like, I

00:52:25.480 --> 00:52:29.360
don't dislike Bo. But that's a... It's a Gen

00:52:29.360 --> 00:52:33.469
Z take. Are you saying it's a Gen Z take? Maybe.

00:52:33.469 --> 00:52:36.849
Maybe. Like if we're talking comedians, I would

00:52:36.849 --> 00:52:38.969
probably go George Carlin. Oh, George Carlin's

00:52:38.969 --> 00:52:41.309
a goat. You got me there. Yeah, I think I'd do

00:52:41.309 --> 00:52:43.429
that. You got me there. Bo could be in your top

00:52:43.429 --> 00:52:46.849
ten, but yeah. Carlin's the goat. Yeah. Leslie

00:52:46.849 --> 00:52:51.250
Nielsen. Oh. Is the goat. Dude, so good. So good.

00:52:51.269 --> 00:52:53.789
Funny without even trying. Oh, yeah. Shirley,

00:52:53.849 --> 00:52:56.650
you can't be serious. I am serious. Don't call

00:52:56.650 --> 00:52:59.269
me Shirley. God, it's so great. Great movie.

00:52:59.789 --> 00:53:01.670
But yeah, Michael Jordan first comes to mind.

00:53:01.809 --> 00:53:04.590
He's the GOAT. Oh, 100%. Because there's so many

00:53:04.590 --> 00:53:06.809
other sports where you could kind of name two

00:53:06.809 --> 00:53:11.050
or three or four people. It's like, Jordan, man.

00:53:11.170 --> 00:53:14.969
Yeah. He's just so far. Caitlin Clark. So far

00:53:14.969 --> 00:53:18.130
beyond. So far beyond everyone else. What'd she

00:53:18.130 --> 00:53:21.289
do last night? 45 points. And like 10 assists.

00:53:21.329 --> 00:53:24.550
10 assists. 8 rebounds. Like, yeah. I mean, just

00:53:24.550 --> 00:53:28.550
awesome. That is legitimately one of my favorite

00:53:28.550 --> 00:53:30.539
teams right now. is the Indiana Fever. Yeah.

00:53:30.820 --> 00:53:34.039
Her and Sophie and Lexi and Boston, and it's

00:53:34.039 --> 00:53:38.719
just like far and away. Yeah. And the fact the

00:53:38.719 --> 00:53:41.320
league just lets them get beat up is just stupid.

00:53:41.559 --> 00:53:44.340
Heartbreaking. It's stupid. Yeah, Caitlin Clark's

00:53:44.340 --> 00:53:45.980
like, I think I might play in Europe next year.

00:53:46.059 --> 00:53:47.440
And Sophie's like, I'll come with you. Yeah.

00:53:47.460 --> 00:53:49.280
I'm like, wow. Talk about a league that's going

00:53:49.280 --> 00:53:50.880
to go right in the toilet. I don't blame them.

00:53:51.019 --> 00:53:54.179
I'd bounce too. Oh, I'd be out. I'd be out. Why

00:53:54.179 --> 00:53:56.590
would you do that? Because at least when Jordan

00:53:56.590 --> 00:53:58.690
got that shit beat out of him by, like, the Knicks

00:53:58.690 --> 00:54:00.909
and the Pistons, they called the penalties. They

00:54:00.909 --> 00:54:02.710
called the fouls. Right, right. They even had

00:54:02.710 --> 00:54:05.570
flagrants. Like, they called the fouls, but they

00:54:05.570 --> 00:54:07.869
were going to beat up on him anyway. Yeah. But

00:54:07.869 --> 00:54:10.309
at least call the foul. Yeah. They're just mad

00:54:10.309 --> 00:54:12.650
because they're not getting the fouls. No, beat

00:54:12.650 --> 00:54:15.190
up on me, fine. Where's my free throw? Right,

00:54:15.190 --> 00:54:19.010
right. It's just that simple. But the WNBA is...

00:54:19.010 --> 00:54:22.210
Goofy. Just made up of goofballs, man. Just so

00:54:22.210 --> 00:54:24.980
stupid. Yeah, never understand that. Never will

00:54:24.980 --> 00:54:28.840
understand that. That brings us, my fine friend,

00:54:28.900 --> 00:54:34.920
to Southside Theatre. Last week we had our first

00:54:34.920 --> 00:54:40.400
one. We did A Few Good Men, as performed by Southsiders.

00:54:40.679 --> 00:54:46.320
Damn right. Now, this particular edition is TV.

00:54:46.960 --> 00:54:51.420
It's a TV show. It is Doctor Who. For you sci

00:54:51.420 --> 00:54:55.880
-fi buffs. Season 9, Episode 7, The Zygon Invasion.

00:54:56.159 --> 00:55:01.760
So we have the Doctor. And we have a character

00:55:01.760 --> 00:55:06.420
named Bonnie. And a character named Kate. And

00:55:06.420 --> 00:55:09.679
basically the fate of the world is set between

00:55:09.679 --> 00:55:14.019
these two women who have a box. And they can

00:55:14.019 --> 00:55:17.119
pretty much end the world. If they so chose.

00:55:17.280 --> 00:55:21.929
If they so... And the Doctor... is trying to

00:55:21.929 --> 00:55:25.769
make this not happen, but he can't necessarily

00:55:25.769 --> 00:55:30.130
intervene because of his code or whatever it

00:55:30.130 --> 00:55:32.869
is, where he tries not to intervene in history

00:55:32.869 --> 00:55:37.170
per se. Sure. Because technically, the Doctor

00:55:37.170 --> 00:55:38.949
doesn't have a beginning and an end. He's just

00:55:38.949 --> 00:55:41.530
the Doctor. Floating through time. So chances

00:55:41.530 --> 00:55:43.809
are he knows the history, but he's got to let

00:55:43.809 --> 00:55:47.670
the history be the history. Yeah. So anyway...

00:55:48.579 --> 00:55:51.380
What character would you like? I'll be Bonnie.

00:55:51.900 --> 00:55:55.340
You'll be Bonnie? Yeah. Okay, we have Bonnie,

00:55:55.400 --> 00:55:57.099
Kate, and the Doctor. Do you want both Bonnie

00:55:57.099 --> 00:56:00.300
and Kate, and I'll do the Doctor? Sure. Okay.

00:56:00.659 --> 00:56:03.719
You got this? Are you ready? I'm prepared. Okay.

00:56:04.139 --> 00:56:06.880
This is an intense scene, ladies and gentlemen.

00:56:07.179 --> 00:56:10.579
The very fate of the world is at stake. Only

00:56:10.579 --> 00:56:13.519
the Doctor can save us. Go figure. Here we go.

00:56:15.420 --> 00:56:19.139
So let me ask you a question. By this Brave New

00:56:19.139 --> 00:56:22.760
World ears, when you've killed all the bad guys,

00:56:22.920 --> 00:56:26.519
and when it's all perfect and just and fair,

00:56:26.800 --> 00:56:30.179
when you have finally got it exactly the way

00:56:30.179 --> 00:56:32.920
you want it, what are you going to do with all

00:56:32.920 --> 00:56:40.179
the people like you, the troublemakers? The troublemakers.

00:56:40.179 --> 00:56:44.179
Ah, I broke. How are you going to protect your

00:56:44.179 --> 00:56:48.500
glorious revolution from the next one? Ah, we'll

00:56:48.500 --> 00:56:57.219
win. Oh. Will you? Well, maybe. Maybe you'll

00:56:57.219 --> 00:57:01.460
win. But nobody wins for long. The wheel just

00:57:01.460 --> 00:57:05.280
keeps turning. So, come on. Break the cycle.

00:57:05.659 --> 00:57:11.480
Why are you still talking? Because I want to

00:57:11.480 --> 00:57:15.880
get you to see. And I'm almost there. Do you

00:57:15.880 --> 00:57:19.159
know what I see, doctor? A box with everything

00:57:19.159 --> 00:57:25.260
I need. 50 % chance. Yeah, for us too. And we're

00:57:25.260 --> 00:57:30.059
off. Fingers on the buzzers. Are you feeling

00:57:30.059 --> 00:57:35.260
lucky? The buzzers. Are you ready to play the

00:57:35.260 --> 00:57:39.260
game? Who's going to be the quickest? Who's going

00:57:39.260 --> 00:57:44.019
to be the luckiest? This is not a game. No. It

00:57:44.019 --> 00:57:47.320
is not a game, sweetheart. And I mean that most

00:57:47.320 --> 00:57:51.360
sincerely. Why are you doing this? Yeah, I'd

00:57:51.360 --> 00:57:53.559
quite like to know that too. You set this up,

00:57:53.599 --> 00:57:58.820
why? Because it's not a game, Kate. This is the

00:57:58.820 --> 00:58:02.840
scale model of war. Every war ever fought right

00:58:02.840 --> 00:58:06.099
there in front of you. Because it's always the

00:58:06.099 --> 00:58:09.800
same. When you fire that first shot, no matter

00:58:09.800 --> 00:58:13.699
how right you feel, you have no idea. Who's going

00:58:13.699 --> 00:58:16.920
to die? You don't know whose children are going

00:58:16.920 --> 00:58:20.440
to scream and burn, how many hearts will be broken,

00:58:20.639 --> 00:58:26.699
how many lives shattered, how much blood will

00:58:26.699 --> 00:58:30.420
spill until everybody does what we're always

00:58:30.420 --> 00:58:35.079
going to have to do from the very beginning.

00:58:35.420 --> 00:58:41.059
Sit down and talk. Listen to me. Listen, I just

00:58:41.059 --> 00:58:46.659
want you to think. Do you know what thinking

00:58:46.659 --> 00:58:50.219
is? It's just a fancy word for changing your

00:58:50.219 --> 00:58:55.159
mind. I will not change my mind. Then you will

00:58:55.159 --> 00:59:00.880
die, stupid. Alternatively, you could step away

00:59:00.880 --> 00:59:04.320
from that box. You can walk right out that door

00:59:04.320 --> 00:59:08.989
and you could stand your revolution down. No,

00:59:08.989 --> 00:59:12.369
I'm not stopping this, doctor. I started. No,

00:59:12.510 --> 00:59:14.670
I'm not going to stop it. You think they'll let

00:59:14.670 --> 00:59:17.610
me go after what I've done? You're all the same,

00:59:17.909 --> 00:59:21.849
you screaming kids. You know that. Look at me.

00:59:22.250 --> 00:59:26.849
I'm unforgivable. Well, here's the unforeseeable.

00:59:27.170 --> 00:59:31.510
I forgive you. After all you've done, I forgive

00:59:31.510 --> 00:59:36.289
you. You don't understand. You will never understand.

00:59:36.869 --> 00:59:43.360
I don't. Understand? Are you kidding? Me? Of

00:59:43.360 --> 00:59:47.500
course I understand. You mean you call this a

00:59:47.500 --> 00:59:52.039
war? Funny thing is, this is not a war. I fought

00:59:52.039 --> 00:59:55.840
in a bigger war than you'll ever know. I did

00:59:55.840 --> 01:00:00.340
worse things than you could ever imagine. And

01:00:00.340 --> 01:00:03.719
when I close my eyes, I hear more screams than

01:00:03.719 --> 01:00:08.010
anyone could ever be able to count. And you know

01:00:08.010 --> 01:00:12.409
what you do with all the pain? Shall I tell you

01:00:12.409 --> 01:00:15.789
where you put it? You hold it tight until it

01:00:15.789 --> 01:00:21.449
burns. Your hand. And you say this. No one else

01:00:21.449 --> 01:00:25.010
will ever have to live like this. No one else

01:00:25.010 --> 01:00:28.429
will have to feel this pain. Not on my watch.

01:00:29.030 --> 01:00:32.829
I'm just going to close this box over here. Thank

01:00:32.829 --> 01:00:40.389
you. Thank you. And scene. And scene. Well done.

01:00:40.730 --> 01:00:43.989
You can really feel the emotion through the Southside

01:00:43.989 --> 01:00:47.250
accent. You really can. You really can. I'm surprised

01:00:47.250 --> 01:00:50.769
there's not more Southside actors out there.

01:00:50.909 --> 01:00:54.510
I am too. I really... Kind of baffling. The dialect,

01:00:54.769 --> 01:00:57.929
the passion. The passion, the spirit. The spirit,

01:00:58.070 --> 01:01:02.369
yes, of the Southsider. Yeah, we really need

01:01:02.369 --> 01:01:06.000
it. I mean, the only... in the history of acting

01:01:06.000 --> 01:01:08.760
that I feel nailed it was Heath Ledger when he

01:01:08.760 --> 01:01:11.480
was the Joker. Oh, yeah. Because he definitely

01:01:11.480 --> 01:01:14.480
sounds like a Southsider. It's so great. It's

01:01:14.480 --> 01:01:16.559
like the movie takes place in Chicago, but in

01:01:16.559 --> 01:01:18.619
Batman lore, it's Gotham. Gotham's different.

01:01:18.940 --> 01:01:22.139
But still, he just has that accent, and I'm like,

01:01:22.199 --> 01:01:24.860
God, man, he just dove in. Yeah. And you have

01:01:24.860 --> 01:01:26.940
to appreciate that. The Blues Brothers do a little

01:01:26.940 --> 01:01:31.500
bit. A little bit. Yes, the Blues Brothers do

01:01:31.500 --> 01:01:34.579
do that. Especially Dan Aykroyd. He really leaned

01:01:34.579 --> 01:01:36.559
in. We're on a mission from God. We're on a mission

01:01:36.559 --> 01:01:39.980
from God. Yeah, he definitely leaned in. It'll

01:01:39.980 --> 01:01:41.480
be interesting to see what other movies really

01:01:41.480 --> 01:01:46.000
nailed it. Yeah. As far as that went. Because

01:01:46.000 --> 01:01:48.710
I've seen movies based in Chicago. And rarely

01:01:48.710 --> 01:01:51.989
have I seen, like, there's actor Dennis Farina,

01:01:52.050 --> 01:01:54.269
but the guy was an actual Chicago cop before

01:01:54.269 --> 01:01:56.869
he became an actor. So when he was in a movie

01:01:56.869 --> 01:01:59.369
like Get Shorty, for example, and he's talking,

01:01:59.469 --> 01:02:01.969
I laugh because it's like he's so Chicago. Yeah.

01:02:02.190 --> 01:02:04.269
Because he's Chicago even when the movie isn't

01:02:04.269 --> 01:02:07.449
in Chicago. Right. Do you know why they say L

01:02:07.449 --> 01:02:09.849
.A. has such beautiful fucking sunsets? Like,

01:02:09.889 --> 01:02:11.650
he just, like, says it. I'm like, I love this

01:02:11.650 --> 01:02:15.170
dude. You know, so it's, you don't see it a lot,

01:02:15.230 --> 01:02:17.119
though. You just don't. But it's so Chicago.

01:02:17.380 --> 01:02:20.059
This is true. All right. Well, we hope you enjoyed

01:02:20.059 --> 01:02:22.579
that. Once again, if you have any ideas, you're

01:02:22.579 --> 01:02:24.320
like, hey, I would love to see you do this scene

01:02:24.320 --> 01:02:27.019
or this movie or whatever, let us know. We'll

01:02:27.019 --> 01:02:29.659
put our South Sider on and we'll do that. We'll

01:02:29.659 --> 01:02:32.880
do that just for you. Over by there. Over by

01:02:32.880 --> 01:02:36.239
the jewels. Or even in my front room. It's fine.

01:02:36.880 --> 01:02:39.019
Over by there. Anyway, we're going to take a

01:02:39.019 --> 01:02:43.239
break. And we've got, finally, the Other Foods

01:02:43.239 --> 01:02:53.610
finale. Jeff Daniels Challenge coming up. All

01:02:53.610 --> 01:02:57.309
right, we are back from break. We're going to

01:02:57.309 --> 01:03:01.070
get to You Just Made the List, but we decided

01:03:01.070 --> 01:03:04.829
to do our final other foods before we hit up

01:03:04.829 --> 01:03:07.789
You Just Made the List. And the best way, I think,

01:03:07.809 --> 01:03:11.829
to finish off this segment is taking the Jeff

01:03:11.829 --> 01:03:15.360
Daniels Challenge. Trying another food ourselves.

01:03:15.420 --> 01:03:19.239
We're finally doing it. Now, had we done something

01:03:19.239 --> 01:03:21.840
like Sir Strumming, we probably would have saved

01:03:21.840 --> 01:03:24.500
this for the last segment of the show because

01:03:24.500 --> 01:03:26.519
we probably would have been vomiting. Throwing

01:03:26.519 --> 01:03:30.539
up, yeah. In a matter of minutes, if not seconds.

01:03:31.260 --> 01:03:35.280
So this... Honestly, I probably would have done

01:03:35.280 --> 01:03:37.940
Sir Strumming outside. I wouldn't want the studio

01:03:37.940 --> 01:03:42.019
smelling like rotten fish for months. Oh, God,

01:03:42.139 --> 01:03:46.590
it would be awful. This was mentioned on the

01:03:46.590 --> 01:03:50.030
Colbert show, Tonight Show, whatever his show

01:03:50.030 --> 01:03:51.530
was. I can't remember because it's off the air

01:03:51.530 --> 01:03:55.250
now because they're stupid. Classic CBS. Classic

01:03:55.250 --> 01:03:59.849
idiots. Anyway, on his show, he always asks his

01:03:59.849 --> 01:04:02.230
guests at the end a couple of questions, right?

01:04:02.550 --> 01:04:05.489
So one of them, one of the kind of standard ones

01:04:05.489 --> 01:04:07.230
he always asks every time is like, what's your

01:04:07.230 --> 01:04:09.670
favorite sandwich? So Jeff Daniels got on there

01:04:09.670 --> 01:04:11.769
and he mentioned his favorite sandwich. Which

01:04:11.769 --> 01:04:15.070
was something of his own creation. God damn it,

01:04:15.070 --> 01:04:20.210
Jeff Daniels. And so we're going to do it. We

01:04:20.210 --> 01:04:21.690
call it the Jeff Daniels Challenge. We're going

01:04:21.690 --> 01:04:24.889
to try his sandwich. We actually brought it up,

01:04:24.889 --> 01:04:28.989
too, I think two episodes ago on our season finale

01:04:28.989 --> 01:04:32.269
of season six, where the other foods we talked

01:04:32.269 --> 01:04:35.750
about the worst sandwiches of all time. And you

01:04:35.750 --> 01:04:37.469
had brought it up. I had never heard of it before.

01:04:37.670 --> 01:04:40.840
Yeah. But the Jeff Daniels Challenge. It's a

01:04:40.840 --> 01:04:45.179
pita, piece of pita bread, peanut butter, potato

01:04:45.179 --> 01:04:48.559
chips that are cheddar cheese flavor. The Ruffles

01:04:48.559 --> 01:04:51.380
cheddar cheese. Top that with barbecue sauce,

01:04:51.719 --> 01:04:54.599
fold the pita, and eat it. That's it. That's

01:04:54.599 --> 01:04:56.840
what we're trying today. That's what we're doing.

01:04:57.119 --> 01:05:00.699
All ingredients on their own, I have no problem

01:05:00.699 --> 01:05:05.010
with. They have merit as solo acts. But... Do

01:05:05.010 --> 01:05:06.989
we really want to invite them all to the party

01:05:06.989 --> 01:05:08.989
at the same time? Yeah. That's the question.

01:05:09.389 --> 01:05:12.829
Just coming off the plate, the smell is heavily

01:05:12.829 --> 01:05:15.110
barbecue sauce. That is the ingredient. Heavy,

01:05:15.130 --> 01:05:17.230
but it is a drizzle. It's just a drizzle. Just

01:05:17.230 --> 01:05:19.309
a drizzle. Yeah, it's not like a massive coating.

01:05:19.730 --> 01:05:22.869
But I just can't comprehend how this is about

01:05:22.869 --> 01:05:26.050
to taste. I really can't either. Do we dare just

01:05:26.050 --> 01:05:29.510
go in? I think we do. I'm afraid, actually. I'm

01:05:29.510 --> 01:05:34.559
slightly afraid. So we fold it up. Oh, man. Did

01:05:34.559 --> 01:05:36.179
you hear that, lovely listeners? A little crunch

01:05:36.179 --> 01:05:38.940
of the chips. A little crunch of the chips. Oh,

01:05:38.960 --> 01:05:43.300
yeah. Well. Cheers. Cheers. Here we go. Oh, God.

01:05:47.159 --> 01:05:51.860
Okay. I'm a little confused. I feel like maybe

01:05:51.860 --> 01:05:54.480
a little more peanut butter would have been good.

01:05:55.679 --> 01:06:02.510
Hmm. Okay. The peanut butter just peaks in at

01:06:02.510 --> 01:06:05.230
the end. And it's just like, oh, I'm also here.

01:06:07.949 --> 01:06:13.570
I'm not any less confused than I was before.

01:06:14.030 --> 01:06:17.929
I'm as confused as I was before. Right. It's

01:06:17.929 --> 01:06:21.829
not bad. It's not bad at all. I don't dislike

01:06:21.829 --> 01:06:26.690
it, per se. I don't think I would do it again.

01:06:27.150 --> 01:06:30.829
Oh, you're going in for more whites. We might

01:06:30.829 --> 01:06:33.730
have a Jeff Daniels fan over here. I just need

01:06:33.730 --> 01:06:36.530
to make sure. Got to double check your work.

01:06:37.150 --> 01:06:42.050
So the potato chips, I might add, are, in my

01:06:42.050 --> 01:06:44.670
opinion, mainly there for texture. I don't get

01:06:44.670 --> 01:06:47.829
much cheddar cheese flavor off of them. We did

01:06:47.829 --> 01:06:49.789
literally just a drizzle of the barbecue sauce,

01:06:49.929 --> 01:06:54.329
but it is so overpowering as a flavor profile.

01:06:55.349 --> 01:06:57.230
Yeah, the peanut butter just peaks in at the

01:06:57.230 --> 01:07:00.119
end, just lets you know it's there. You don't

01:07:00.119 --> 01:07:02.920
get the chips a lot. No. Chips very much just

01:07:02.920 --> 01:07:07.360
there for the crunch factor, which is appreciated.

01:07:07.500 --> 01:07:10.300
I like chips on a sandwich. Oh, yeah. But, yeah,

01:07:10.320 --> 01:07:12.960
it just tastes like barbecue sauce on bread for

01:07:12.960 --> 01:07:15.340
the most part. Yeah, kind of. A little creaminess

01:07:15.340 --> 01:07:16.760
from the peanut butter. I'm going to go back

01:07:16.760 --> 01:07:21.400
in for a second opinion myself. Yeah. I'm going

01:07:21.400 --> 01:07:25.539
to say I don't hate it. I don't. I'm sure there

01:07:25.539 --> 01:07:27.119
are worse things I could have put in my mouth.

01:07:27.460 --> 01:07:34.000
Mm -hmm. Like it's okay. It's okay. But to Aiden's

01:07:34.000 --> 01:07:36.219
point, you don't get the chips a lot. Maybe we

01:07:36.219 --> 01:07:37.980
should have put more. Maybe we should have put

01:07:37.980 --> 01:07:39.760
more chips and peanut butter. I'm not sure. It

01:07:39.760 --> 01:07:44.719
was kind of our first time. But it's okay. It's

01:07:44.719 --> 01:07:50.820
fine. The part that's getting me is exactly that.

01:07:50.860 --> 01:07:55.340
The fact that this sandwich is fine, slightly

01:07:55.340 --> 01:07:59.019
confusing, but it's fine. And somehow this is

01:07:59.019 --> 01:08:01.619
Jeff Daniels' favorite sandwich of all time.

01:08:01.760 --> 01:08:05.179
Favorite sandwich. How? I don't know. This is

01:08:05.179 --> 01:08:07.539
the most middle -of -the -road experience I've

01:08:07.539 --> 01:08:11.679
had. If I had a restaurant and this was on it,

01:08:11.699 --> 01:08:14.760
I would probably call it the mid. I'm going to

01:08:14.760 --> 01:08:16.199
be completely honest. I was going to say mid,

01:08:16.279 --> 01:08:19.220
but I didn't want to be too mean. But yeah, there's

01:08:19.220 --> 01:08:23.300
nothing overtly negative I can say about it.

01:08:23.359 --> 01:08:26.140
But there's absolutely nothing positive I can

01:08:26.140 --> 01:08:30.020
say about it. No, it's just... The chips are

01:08:30.020 --> 01:08:32.920
lost to the barbecue sauce in terms of flavor.

01:08:33.199 --> 01:08:37.119
Yeah. The peanut butter is like an overtime feature.

01:08:37.600 --> 01:08:40.439
I am a pita bread enjoyer, so that's nice. I

01:08:40.439 --> 01:08:43.039
am too. I like pita bread. But yeah, it tastes

01:08:43.039 --> 01:08:49.560
like barbecue sauce. Yeah, and I don't feel like

01:08:49.560 --> 01:08:51.840
we put that much barbecue sauce on there. No.

01:08:51.960 --> 01:08:53.800
You said light drizzle. I think I did a light

01:08:53.800 --> 01:08:56.810
drizzle. You did. Like I said, perhaps we had

01:08:56.810 --> 01:08:58.930
to have a little bit more peanut butter and chips.

01:08:59.529 --> 01:09:03.010
Sure. Maybe the ratios are different than Jeff

01:09:03.010 --> 01:09:05.649
Daniels would have done it himself. Yeah. But

01:09:05.649 --> 01:09:08.289
we didn't exactly have a recipe. That is true.

01:09:08.329 --> 01:09:11.489
We just had the outline, the idea. And I don't

01:09:11.489 --> 01:09:12.930
think we could have added that many more chips

01:09:12.930 --> 01:09:15.649
without it being incredibly messy. Maybe that's

01:09:15.649 --> 01:09:19.649
how Jeff likes it. Maybe it is. I don't know.

01:09:19.670 --> 01:09:23.390
One at a time. Five. Right down the middle. Right

01:09:23.390 --> 01:09:27.430
down the middle. Yeah. I'll get a 5 .5 just because

01:09:27.430 --> 01:09:30.329
I like Jeff Daniels. You get that half point,

01:09:30.449 --> 01:09:32.710
Jeff. You're welcome. I get that half point because

01:09:32.710 --> 01:09:35.670
we like you, but favorite all time? I don't know,

01:09:35.689 --> 01:09:38.510
man. That's a little sus. That's a stretch. That's

01:09:38.510 --> 01:09:40.270
a stretch. Do you think it's just Jeff patting

01:09:40.270 --> 01:09:43.869
his own back like, hmm, I made this myself? I

01:09:43.869 --> 01:09:47.149
invented this. Brother, don't quit your day job.

01:09:47.449 --> 01:09:51.189
I wonder how many, like, restauranteurs and chefs

01:09:51.189 --> 01:09:52.810
and stuff were like, yeah, I'm going to try that.

01:09:53.520 --> 01:09:55.539
Because, like, thinking if it is that good, they'd

01:09:55.539 --> 01:09:57.399
probably put some variation on their menu. Right,

01:09:57.399 --> 01:09:58.520
right. And they tried it, and they're kind of

01:09:58.520 --> 01:10:03.939
like, nah, we'll leave it here. Yes, a Michelin

01:10:03.939 --> 01:10:07.000
star chef is like, I must get ahead of the curve.

01:10:07.079 --> 01:10:10.020
We're trying the Jeff Daniels today. Yeah. I'm

01:10:10.020 --> 01:10:12.319
trying to think of the name of that Purdue basketball

01:10:12.319 --> 01:10:17.920
player. Is it Perkins? Or Purvis Ellison? He

01:10:17.920 --> 01:10:21.060
came up with the peanut butter on the hamburger.

01:10:21.659 --> 01:10:24.819
Oh, okay. There's a diner in West Lafayette,

01:10:24.960 --> 01:10:28.279
Indiana called Triple X, which if you're ever

01:10:28.279 --> 01:10:29.579
there, you should go. Their burgers are really

01:10:29.579 --> 01:10:31.899
good. Very tasty. And the root beer is fire.

01:10:32.819 --> 01:10:36.279
So I'd recommend that. But they have this burger.

01:10:36.420 --> 01:10:38.579
I think it's called Purvis Ellison or Perkins

01:10:38.579 --> 01:10:40.340
or something. I can't remember the guy's name.

01:10:40.739 --> 01:10:45.039
But it's peanut butter on a burger. Now, I never

01:10:45.039 --> 01:10:47.479
tried it because I like peanut butter and I love

01:10:47.479 --> 01:10:49.579
a burger, but I'm not going to cross the streams.

01:10:49.979 --> 01:10:52.529
Like that just does not sound enjoyable. I don't

01:10:52.529 --> 01:10:54.710
understand. It's once again one of those things

01:10:54.710 --> 01:10:56.930
my brain isn't telling me how that could make

01:10:56.930 --> 01:10:59.630
sense. No. Yeah. Chocolate and peanut butter,

01:10:59.770 --> 01:11:03.010
good. Chocolate on a sandwich with jelly, fine.

01:11:03.590 --> 01:11:06.729
That's about it. Yeah. That's about it. And,

01:11:06.789 --> 01:11:12.710
like, I see how peanuts and peanut butter can

01:11:12.710 --> 01:11:15.489
be applied in savory situations. Like, I think

01:11:15.489 --> 01:11:17.590
there's, like, Thai peanut noodles, and those

01:11:17.590 --> 01:11:20.329
taste great. That's true. That's very true. What

01:11:20.329 --> 01:11:23.210
are we doing here, Jeff? What are we doing with

01:11:23.210 --> 01:11:26.789
the burger thing, Ellison? Right. I don't get

01:11:26.789 --> 01:11:31.069
that. I don't. Me neither. It's a little bit

01:11:31.069 --> 01:11:34.850
confusing. It's not like we should show up at

01:11:34.850 --> 01:11:36.750
a restaurant and be like, you know what, I love

01:11:36.750 --> 01:11:38.390
a scoop of chocolate ice cream, so why don't

01:11:38.390 --> 01:11:40.289
we just dump that shit on a cheeseburger and

01:11:40.289 --> 01:11:43.729
kind of see how things go. Let's not. Let's put

01:11:43.729 --> 01:11:46.020
that with my spaghetti and marinara. Can we do

01:11:46.020 --> 01:11:49.140
that? Yeah. Yeah. Or, like, what does Elf do?

01:11:49.260 --> 01:11:51.279
He takes the spaghetti and then he puts, like,

01:11:51.319 --> 01:11:57.119
maple syrup and cereal. Ew. I mean, we could

01:11:57.119 --> 01:11:58.720
have done that one, too, but I'm glad we didn't.

01:11:58.720 --> 01:12:01.119
Yeah. Yeah. If that had been too many ingredients

01:12:01.119 --> 01:12:03.619
and too many calories, I would have gone. And

01:12:03.619 --> 01:12:05.140
my blood sugar probably would have come out my

01:12:05.140 --> 01:12:06.739
ears. Yeah, I'd have gone to the hospital, I

01:12:06.739 --> 01:12:08.020
think. I think that would have been too much.

01:12:08.020 --> 01:12:10.619
Yeah. For sure. Well, God bless the other foods.

01:12:10.819 --> 01:12:14.500
Jeff Daniels. Yeah. You've closed us out. You've

01:12:14.500 --> 01:12:17.350
closed us out. With one of the least describable

01:12:17.350 --> 01:12:20.510
sandwiches I've ever had. I just don't know.

01:12:20.630 --> 01:12:23.470
I don't know. I don't know. I kind of feel the

01:12:23.470 --> 01:12:26.829
same way I felt before I tried it. Yeah, exactly.

01:12:27.630 --> 01:12:30.390
Like, how would you describe it? Well, barbecue

01:12:30.390 --> 01:12:33.710
sauce, crunch, touch of peanut butter. And a

01:12:33.710 --> 01:12:36.829
pita bread. Pita bread. Think of those flavors.

01:12:36.869 --> 01:12:40.449
That's exactly what it is. Yeah. Yeah. How interesting.

01:12:40.829 --> 01:12:46.659
Very. All right. Well. Enough of eating mid -food.

01:12:47.699 --> 01:12:50.539
We're moving on. Back to my beautiful Pabst Blue

01:12:50.539 --> 01:12:53.659
ribbon. And we're on to you. You just made the

01:12:53.659 --> 01:12:55.720
list. It's a top ten list, ten through two, with

01:12:55.720 --> 01:13:00.420
our magical number one. And let's see. Rules,

01:13:00.520 --> 01:13:04.319
rules. Hey, there is a rule. Oh, no. No rules.

01:13:04.920 --> 01:13:07.140
Let's freaking go, chat. We lucked out on that

01:13:07.140 --> 01:13:09.220
one. Chat, subscribe if that's your favorite

01:13:09.220 --> 01:13:13.479

that's just ugly the ford ecosport is the least

01:13:42.609 --> 01:13:46.079
inspired Dumbest looking SUV I've probably ever

01:13:46.079 --> 01:13:49.979
seen. Yeah. And the Jeep Commander. Jeep just

01:13:49.979 --> 01:13:52.520
has a way of making ugly SUVs. That's fair. Just

01:13:52.520 --> 01:13:54.739
stick with the Wrangler, boys. Right. Just stick

01:13:54.739 --> 01:13:56.020
with the Jeep. Stick with the Wrangler. Yep.

01:13:56.340 --> 01:14:01.060
Number ten. The Chevrolet Uplander. One of the

01:14:01.060 --> 01:14:04.920
early minivans, and god damn is it ugly. Yeah.

01:14:05.319 --> 01:14:09.710
So ugly. Number nine. The Ford Ka. Wait, what?

01:14:09.869 --> 01:14:13.529
The Ford Ka. K -A, Ka. Ford Ka. The Ford Ka.

01:14:14.409 --> 01:14:17.449
Pull up a picture here so you can see its beauty.

01:14:18.109 --> 01:14:20.590
Hey, Billy, what'd you get? I got the Ford Ka.

01:14:20.810 --> 01:14:23.010
Got the Ka. Well, I know you got a Ka. What kind

01:14:23.010 --> 01:14:26.010
of Ka? The Ka. The Ka. The Ka Ka. That's what

01:14:26.010 --> 01:14:29.770
we're looking at here. The Ford Ka. Wow. It's

01:14:29.770 --> 01:14:32.029
like they saw a Volkswagen Beetle one time and

01:14:32.029 --> 01:14:33.649
it was like, what if we took away its character?

01:14:34.470 --> 01:14:37.390
That's pretty much it. Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty

01:14:37.390 --> 01:14:40.710
boring looking. Yeah. Number eight, the Lincoln

01:14:40.710 --> 01:14:44.510
Blackwood. Oh, God. Which is the quote -unquote

01:14:44.510 --> 01:14:47.510
fancy version of the F -150 from way back in

01:14:47.510 --> 01:14:51.390
the day. Oh, God. Ugly, ugly truck. I've never

01:14:51.390 --> 01:14:53.729
understood luxury trucks. Yeah, what are you

01:14:53.729 --> 01:14:56.010
doing? It's a work mule. Right. Why are you making

01:14:56.010 --> 01:14:58.649
it luxury? And it looked fucking dumb. Right,

01:14:58.710 --> 01:15:00.430
and it's somebody that lives like on the near

01:15:00.430 --> 01:15:03.310
north side on tiny little side streets that owns

01:15:03.310 --> 01:15:05.250
one of those things. Right, and nothing has ever

01:15:05.250 --> 01:15:08.520
set. In the bed of that truck. No, nothing. Nothing.

01:15:08.840 --> 01:15:13.520
Number seven, the Saturn Ion. Back in the days

01:15:13.520 --> 01:15:15.779
when Saturn was still alive and kicking, they

01:15:15.779 --> 01:15:17.720
happened to make one of the ugliest sedans I've

01:15:17.720 --> 01:15:19.939
ever seen. Oh, yeah. There's actually a couple

01:15:19.939 --> 01:15:22.439
still on the road you can see sometimes. It's

01:15:22.439 --> 01:15:25.260
like, wow, that's an ugly car. Holy cow. Number

01:15:25.260 --> 01:15:31.300
six, the Fiat Multipla. So ugly. The design makes

01:15:31.300 --> 01:15:33.180
no sense. It's like they put a little bubble

01:15:33.180 --> 01:15:37.300
on top of... A really small car. Yeah. And then,

01:15:37.319 --> 01:15:39.680
like, the lights make no sense on it. It's kind

01:15:39.680 --> 01:15:41.439
of one of those cars that's so ugly you almost

01:15:41.439 --> 01:15:43.939
want one just to have it as, like, a novelty.

01:15:44.340 --> 01:15:47.840
Oh, Fiat. Oh, Fiat. Number five, the Chrysler

01:15:47.840 --> 01:15:52.840
PT Cruiser. Oh, I remember that. I'm surprised

01:15:52.840 --> 01:15:55.020
Chrysler is still a company. I swear to God they

01:15:55.020 --> 01:15:58.449
make the shittiest cars mechanically. And they've

01:15:58.449 --> 01:16:02.390
made some ugly boys. Yeah. Can we make a trade?

01:16:02.609 --> 01:16:04.909
Can we, like, get them off the road and bring

01:16:04.909 --> 01:16:07.130
back, like, the Pontiac Trans Am? That would

01:16:07.130 --> 01:16:09.989
be amazing. What is GM thinking? They killed

01:16:09.989 --> 01:16:14.069
Pontiac? Wasn't Saturn a GM company? I know Holden

01:16:14.069 --> 01:16:16.189
was a GM company, and they killed that. They

01:16:16.189 --> 01:16:19.350
did, yeah. Damn. Number four, the Mitsubishi

01:16:19.350 --> 01:16:25.930
IMI -EV. Oh, boy. It is so ugly. It's like a

01:16:25.930 --> 01:16:30.520
smart car. but more terrible. I mean, at least

01:16:30.520 --> 01:16:32.460
smart cars are logical. They get like 80 miles

01:16:32.460 --> 01:16:34.399
an hour or something crazy. Even though they

01:16:34.399 --> 01:16:36.659
look dumb, they're incredibly practical. This

01:16:36.659 --> 01:16:39.560
is just an ugly car. And then number three on

01:16:39.560 --> 01:16:42.840
my list, the Nissan Cube. The Cube, that's such

01:16:42.840 --> 01:16:47.100
a dumb looking car. I hate it. It's boxy, kind

01:16:47.100 --> 01:16:50.159
of like a Honda Element is, but then it's got

01:16:50.159 --> 01:16:53.140
like this weird wraparound glass making it asymmetrical

01:16:53.140 --> 01:16:55.779
for no other reason that... Hey, I'm Nissan.

01:16:55.920 --> 01:16:59.079
I make an ugly car. No, it looks like a piece

01:16:59.079 --> 01:17:01.600
of Swiss cheese with some wheels. Yeah, it's

01:17:01.600 --> 01:17:06.000
so ugly. And number two on my list, the Tesla

01:17:06.000 --> 01:17:11.359
Cybertruck. Yeah, that's good. Ugly. Ungly Grinch.

01:17:12.060 --> 01:17:16.640
It is maybe the dumbest looking vehicle. You

01:17:16.640 --> 01:17:18.699
want to talk about truck owners that have nothing

01:17:18.699 --> 01:17:21.699
to do with any kind of utility on a truck? It's

01:17:21.699 --> 01:17:25.579
those fuckers. Oh, yeah. Oh, for sure. All right,

01:17:25.600 --> 01:17:26.979
I have no honorable mention, but I'm going to

01:17:26.979 --> 01:17:30.060
start off with the 2001 Chevy Avalanche. Oh,

01:17:30.079 --> 01:17:31.840
it's an ugly one, too. Which is a really bad

01:17:31.840 --> 01:17:37.439
SUV. Number nine, the AMC Gremlin. Which is kind

01:17:37.439 --> 01:17:39.739
of a fun name for a car, but then they just made

01:17:39.739 --> 01:17:41.579
it ugly. It's a fun name, but it's just so dumb

01:17:41.579 --> 01:17:45.619
looking. It just looks like a dome. Just like

01:17:45.619 --> 01:17:49.899
a dome or a bubble. Number eight, the Volkswagen

01:17:49.899 --> 01:17:55.619
Thing. It is literally called a thing. That's

01:17:55.619 --> 01:17:58.460
right up there with Ka, as far as the worst names.

01:17:58.479 --> 01:18:02.460
Do you like a thing or a Ka? What? Yeah, it's

01:18:02.460 --> 01:18:07.579
based on the Jeeps of World War II Germany. Unlike

01:18:07.579 --> 01:18:12.880
Hummer, who took a Jeep and made it look like

01:18:12.880 --> 01:18:16.140
a vehicle you want to have on the road, Volkswagen

01:18:16.140 --> 01:18:20.829
said... I've even just painted to color. And

01:18:20.829 --> 01:18:22.850
literally it looks just like the military vehicle,

01:18:22.930 --> 01:18:25.729
just in blue or black or purple or whatever.

01:18:26.449 --> 01:18:28.829
Thanks, Volkswagen. Good job. Good job, guys.

01:18:29.170 --> 01:18:31.189
We always say how the Germans do great things,

01:18:31.250 --> 01:18:33.569
and it's like, well, it just shows not everybody's

01:18:33.569 --> 01:18:36.949
perfect. Yeah. Number seven, the Fiat Multipla.

01:18:37.529 --> 01:18:42.199
Great car. So ugly. Dumb name, too. Number six,

01:18:42.319 --> 01:18:45.579
the Nissan Cube. That checks out. Number five,

01:18:45.779 --> 01:18:49.800
the AMC Pacer. AMC twice on the list. That's

01:18:49.800 --> 01:18:54.600
good. So it's kind of like if the AMC Gremlin

01:18:54.600 --> 01:18:59.859
had a baby with a smart car is the AMC Pacer.

01:18:59.859 --> 01:19:04.000
Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Number four, very

01:19:04.000 --> 01:19:09.970
simple, one word, Yugo. Yup. Yugo. That one almost

01:19:09.970 --> 01:19:13.170
made my list. It's just simple. It was an ugly

01:19:13.170 --> 01:19:17.590
car. As a matter of fact, in Die Hard 3, the

01:19:17.590 --> 01:19:20.029
one with Samuel L. Jackson, and they're in a

01:19:20.029 --> 01:19:21.970
Mercedes, and then they get out of the Mercedes

01:19:21.970 --> 01:19:26.430
and get into a Yugo. They're pushing 40, and

01:19:26.430 --> 01:19:30.390
that's all I can do. That's a Yugo. Top gear,

01:19:30.529 --> 01:19:33.930
redlining it. Oh, God. Number three, the Nissan

01:19:33.930 --> 01:19:37.840
Juke. That's an ugly one, too. Number two, the

01:19:37.840 --> 01:19:42.779
Pontiac Aztec. So ugly. I suggest if you do not

01:19:42.779 --> 01:19:44.979
know what I'm talking about, hit the Google machine.

01:19:45.539 --> 01:19:48.319
I wonder if that's why Pontiac died. Right. They

01:19:48.319 --> 01:19:50.239
made the Aztec. They put so much money into the

01:19:50.239 --> 01:19:52.939
Aztec. We're going to get into that crossover

01:19:52.939 --> 01:19:56.680
vehicle SUV game. I swear, I swear SUVs are the

01:19:56.680 --> 01:19:59.640
future. Call it Aztec. Well, you know the Aztecs

01:19:59.640 --> 01:20:01.399
are kind of like exterminating. No, no, it's

01:20:01.399 --> 01:20:04.300
going to work. Our Aztec will be around forever.

01:20:05.140 --> 01:20:08.640
Okay. What? Well, and I will save my number one.

01:20:08.699 --> 01:20:12.479
My number one, the Pontiac Aztec. Ah, there we

01:20:12.479 --> 01:20:16.720
go. So, so ugly. It's bad. Just uninspired and

01:20:16.720 --> 01:20:20.260
stupid looking. And in my opinion, it's the only

01:20:20.260 --> 01:20:23.260
car that beats out the Cybertruck in terms of

01:20:23.260 --> 01:20:27.779
straight up ugly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I agree.

01:20:28.020 --> 01:20:33.390
Wow, baby. Yeah. That is an ugly one. And Aiden

01:20:33.390 --> 01:20:35.189
and I just flip -flopped our two -in -one. My

01:20:35.189 --> 01:20:38.649
number one is the Tesla Cybertruck. Yep. Not

01:20:38.649 --> 01:20:43.750
only is it incredibly dumb -looking on the outside,

01:20:44.050 --> 01:20:47.350
but also what's on the inside is stupid, too.

01:20:47.470 --> 01:20:50.529
This is true. Typically. The one big windshield

01:20:50.529 --> 01:20:53.210
wiper looks so fucking dumb. Oh, my God. It's

01:20:53.210 --> 01:20:56.729
just... I don't understand. It's like, did...

01:20:57.930 --> 01:21:00.390
musk like watch too many episodes of the jetsons

01:21:00.390 --> 01:21:03.930
or like i i don't right i'm not sure where that

01:21:03.930 --> 01:21:05.869
came from where they put that together and said

01:21:05.869 --> 01:21:08.250
yeah that's the car i want on the road it doesn't

01:21:08.250 --> 01:21:10.550
hit any safety standards to be a road vehicle

01:21:10.550 --> 01:21:12.810
but i think they get past it by calling it like

01:21:12.810 --> 01:21:15.750
a novelty car or some shit like that oh my god

01:21:15.750 --> 01:21:17.449
there's some way they get around like the road

01:21:17.449 --> 01:21:20.029
safety laws because it is a death machine for

01:21:20.029 --> 01:21:22.569
everyone around it And it is the least truck

01:21:22.569 --> 01:21:24.970
truck of all time. Of all time. Like you literally

01:21:24.970 --> 01:21:28.590
like Ford loves when they're just like, well,

01:21:28.789 --> 01:21:32.010
yeah, there's another Cybertruck stuck off the

01:21:32.010 --> 01:21:35.930
side of the road here in Washington. Well, Ford

01:21:35.930 --> 01:21:41.069
F -150 to the rescue. It's got to get his ass

01:21:41.069 --> 01:21:44.170
out of there. I saw one yesterday, actually,

01:21:44.270 --> 01:21:49.079
of this Cybertruck towing a boat. And then the

01:21:49.079 --> 01:21:52.140
camera pans over a little bit. It's actually

01:21:52.140 --> 01:21:55.039
a ram truck towing the stuck cyber truck that

01:21:55.039 --> 01:21:57.920
is towing the boat. That's amazing. It's so funny.

01:21:58.239 --> 01:22:02.180
That's amazing. Oh, man. Let's be fair, right?

01:22:02.260 --> 01:22:05.029
You've got... Ford F1, F -Series, right, for

01:22:05.029 --> 01:22:07.770
a truck. Yeah. You got, like, Chevy Silverado.

01:22:07.810 --> 01:22:09.909
Do they still make that? Yeah. Some form of that.

01:22:10.350 --> 01:22:12.750
And then the Dodge Ram. Yeah. And, like, those

01:22:12.750 --> 01:22:15.010
are trucks to me. Nissan's got a truck, too.

01:22:15.069 --> 01:22:16.550
I can't remember what its name is. I've seen

01:22:16.550 --> 01:22:18.949
it at the auto show. It looks pretty cool. Toyota's

01:22:18.949 --> 01:22:22.130
got a decent truck. The Tundra. Tundra. Oh, okay.

01:22:22.310 --> 01:22:25.039
Yeah. And then Honda makes the little Ridgeline,

01:22:25.260 --> 01:22:27.140
which is kind of like the Ford Maverick, like

01:22:27.140 --> 01:22:29.039
a small truck. Oh, like a smaller truck. Yeah.

01:22:29.119 --> 01:22:31.920
So there's good trucks out there, and then you

01:22:31.920 --> 01:22:35.079
have this abomination. It makes no sense. You

01:22:35.079 --> 01:22:38.000
want to drop $100 ,000 on a shitty built car

01:22:38.000 --> 01:22:40.979
that doesn't do what you bought it to do? So

01:22:40.979 --> 01:22:45.289
dumb. So dumb. All right, Aiden. That's our number

01:22:45.289 --> 01:22:47.510
one. And by the way, hey, if we missed any weird,

01:22:47.590 --> 01:22:50.090
ugly vehicles, let us know. Yugo was a good call

01:22:50.090 --> 01:22:52.609
on your part. Oh, thank you. I appreciate that.

01:22:53.510 --> 01:22:57.649
I was very young when that car came out, but

01:22:57.649 --> 01:23:00.260
I just remember it was always made fun of. Like,

01:23:00.260 --> 01:23:02.840
from its inception. And then it just disappeared.

01:23:03.319 --> 01:23:05.560
Like, Yugo's like, yay, we're going to try this

01:23:05.560 --> 01:23:08.539
whole Western capitalism thing. We're going to

01:23:08.539 --> 01:23:10.319
come up with our own. Oh, we're broke already?

01:23:10.560 --> 01:23:13.500
Oh, no. Oh, no. To be fair, I've always had a

01:23:13.500 --> 01:23:16.199
love for hatchbacks. Yeah. So, like, the Yugo

01:23:16.199 --> 01:23:19.579
and the AMC Pacer, they kind of hold a special

01:23:19.579 --> 01:23:21.859
place in my heart of, like, I see they're ugly,

01:23:22.060 --> 01:23:25.140
but I kind of want one. It would be fun to, like,

01:23:25.140 --> 01:23:27.180
get one and trick it out. Yeah, exactly. Wouldn't

01:23:27.180 --> 01:23:30.119
it? Like, put, like, a small block in there.

01:23:30.619 --> 01:23:33.600
Yeah, put some spinnies on it. And then just

01:23:33.600 --> 01:23:35.260
have people, like, watch you drive by, like,

01:23:35.340 --> 01:23:39.399
did that guy just trick out a Hugo? Oh, my God,

01:23:39.420 --> 01:23:42.079
you'd break it. You'd absolutely break it. All

01:23:42.079 --> 01:23:43.960
right, well, hey, if we missed any, definitely

01:23:43.960 --> 01:23:47.119
let us know in the socials. Down the rabbit hole,

01:23:47.300 --> 01:23:50.359
what do you got? Well, I found this super neat

01:23:50.359 --> 01:23:54.510
article. on what Americans say they want versus

01:23:54.510 --> 01:23:59.569
where Congress stands. Ooh, okay. So this comes

01:23:59.569 --> 01:24:04.210
from Project Curia, and it is seven government

01:24:04.210 --> 01:24:08.130
reforms, each backed by a majority of both parties'

01:24:08.289 --> 01:24:13.369
voters, and then directly next to that is where

01:24:13.369 --> 01:24:16.270
the Congress members stand as far as the elected

01:24:16.270 --> 01:24:21.369
officials. Ah. So, of voters... I'll give you

01:24:21.369 --> 01:24:24.130
the issue, where the voters stand, and then I'll

01:24:24.130 --> 01:24:25.909
tell you where Congress actually stands. Oh,

01:24:25.909 --> 01:24:29.729
perfect. Requiring dark money disclosure. 88

01:24:29.729 --> 01:24:32.890
% of Democratic voters and 85 % of Republican

01:24:32.890 --> 01:24:37.189
voters are for this. 85 and 95, right? Is that

01:24:37.189 --> 01:24:42.130
what you said? 85 and 88. 88, okay. 90 % of Democrats

01:24:42.130 --> 01:24:46.989
in Congress also support this. Okay. Zero percent.

01:24:47.710 --> 01:24:50.850
Of Republicans in Congress support that. So everything

01:24:50.850 --> 01:24:56.010
lines up except. Except that. Next up, overturning

01:24:56.010 --> 01:24:59.909
Citizens United. 84 % of Democratic voters are

01:24:59.909 --> 01:25:03.909
for this. 75 % of Republican voters are for this.

01:25:04.029 --> 01:25:08.050
Okay. 88 % of elected Democrats are for this.

01:25:08.090 --> 01:25:13.409
Okay. 0 % of elected Republicans are for that.

01:25:13.529 --> 01:25:34.720
Wow. Wow, that's despicable. Disturbing. Everyone

01:25:34.720 --> 01:25:37.739
feeling represented out there? Oh, yeah. Here's

01:25:37.739 --> 01:25:45.699
a fun one. Of Democratic voters and 71 % of Republican

01:25:45.699 --> 01:25:50.539
voters are for that. Aligned, yep. 1 % of Congressional

01:25:50.539 --> 01:25:53.380
Democrats and 1 % of Congressional Republicans.

01:25:53.779 --> 01:25:57.500
One on both? One. Wow, dude. I'll reiterate.

01:25:57.680 --> 01:26:00.220
Everyone out there feeling nice and represented?

01:26:01.279 --> 01:26:05.319
Open primaries to independents. 79 % of Democratic

01:26:05.319 --> 01:26:08.420
voters like that. 65 % of Republican voters like

01:26:08.420 --> 01:26:12.359
that. 70 % of Democrats in Congress. are for

01:26:12.359 --> 01:26:17.699
that. 1 % of elected Republicans. Jesus. The

01:26:17.699 --> 01:26:20.680
last one I'll bring up today. Good lord. End

01:26:20.680 --> 01:26:26.439
partisan gerrymandering. 76 % of Democratic voters

01:26:26.439 --> 01:26:30.619
like that. Okay. 57 % of Republican voters like

01:26:30.619 --> 01:26:36.079
that. It's the first real quantifiable diversions

01:26:36.079 --> 01:26:38.720
between the... But still a majority of both.

01:26:38.899 --> 01:26:43.829
Yes. 77 % of elected democrats okay looking good

01:26:43.829 --> 01:26:47.829
so far zero percent of elected republicans wow

01:26:47.829 --> 01:26:51.090
that's uh that's the country we're in boys everyone

01:26:51.090 --> 01:26:53.609
liking the two -party system yeah everyone liking

01:26:53.609 --> 01:26:56.890
that first past the post wow type shit i'm sure

01:26:56.890 --> 01:27:01.729
as fuck not that's uh that's disturbing yeah

01:27:01.729 --> 01:27:05.029
yeah decidedly not a fan of where we're at but

01:27:05.029 --> 01:27:07.829
that uh for everyone out there that's that's

01:27:07.829 --> 01:27:11.010
the numbers for you that's the raw data That's

01:27:11.010 --> 01:27:15.210
terrible. Yeah. That's terrible. Well. Everyone

01:27:15.210 --> 01:27:17.130
out there feeling a little more sad, sorry about

01:27:17.130 --> 01:27:21.310
that. All I have to say is if you sit at home

01:27:21.310 --> 01:27:24.890
for the midterms, I just never want you to open

01:27:24.890 --> 01:27:28.310
your mouth again about anything. Just don't.

01:27:28.310 --> 01:27:31.829
Don't bother me with it. Yeah. This is the opportunity.

01:27:31.909 --> 01:27:35.130
And once again, I always tell people, look, Democrats

01:27:35.130 --> 01:27:39.020
are not perfect. Far from it. But. When you only

01:27:39.020 --> 01:27:42.899
have two choices, there's really only one choice.

01:27:43.180 --> 01:27:46.760
Right. That's it. Get the other ones, eradicate

01:27:46.760 --> 01:27:49.300
the government from the other ones, and then

01:27:49.300 --> 01:27:51.180
you can sort out the rest. Right. Then if the

01:27:51.180 --> 01:27:52.960
other parties, hey, we want to go a little bit

01:27:52.960 --> 01:27:54.680
left, we want to stay in the middle, then let

01:27:54.680 --> 01:27:57.359
those be the two parties. Right. I could certainly

01:27:57.359 --> 01:28:00.659
live with that over what the other side's doing.

01:28:00.899 --> 01:28:04.140
Yeah. Yeah. That's why I've always said rank

01:28:04.140 --> 01:28:08.960
choice voting and four, five, six. Would be ideal.

01:28:09.119 --> 01:28:11.560
That's what we need. Yeah. I agree with that.

01:28:11.899 --> 01:28:15.020
But, yeah, we'll see. I mean, it'd be great to

01:28:15.020 --> 01:28:19.000
just have a progressive party or if they want

01:28:19.000 --> 01:28:22.180
to call themselves like the Democratic Socialists,

01:28:22.180 --> 01:28:24.180
which is not socialism or communism. So if you

01:28:24.180 --> 01:28:25.960
think that you're a moron, please listen to a

01:28:25.960 --> 01:28:30.560
different podcast. So like Democratic Socialists.

01:28:30.659 --> 01:28:34.069
Green Party. Libertarian. Green Party. And then

01:28:34.069 --> 01:28:35.770
I don't even call them Republicans because it's

01:28:35.770 --> 01:28:38.770
an insult to the Republicans of the past. Conservative

01:28:38.770 --> 01:28:43.149
douchebag party, CBP, I guess we'll just call

01:28:43.149 --> 01:28:46.590
them. It's got a ring to it. Kind of does. Yeah.

01:28:46.630 --> 01:28:49.810
It kind of does. So I don't know. But definitely

01:28:49.810 --> 01:28:51.850
coming up with a different system. Yeah. It would

01:28:51.850 --> 01:28:54.529
definitely make sense. So now we're going to

01:28:54.529 --> 01:28:56.810
finish this and then go on to our last segments

01:28:56.810 --> 01:29:01.229
after a quick break. But we often sleep. And

01:29:01.229 --> 01:29:03.149
while we're sleeping, Aiden discovers many interesting

01:29:03.149 --> 01:29:06.149
things that we have missed. It could be a YouTuber,

01:29:06.369 --> 01:29:08.829
it could be a movie, it could be music, it could

01:29:08.829 --> 01:29:12.630
be anything. And I'm very interested to see what

01:29:12.630 --> 01:29:14.590
we slept on this time. Well, I've got a quick

01:29:14.590 --> 01:29:17.010
one for you today. It's more of a public service

01:29:17.010 --> 01:29:19.210
announcement than a while you were sleeping,

01:29:19.369 --> 01:29:23.449
but they kind of go hand in hand. While you were

01:29:23.449 --> 01:29:25.909
sleeping, people out there seem to have forgotten

01:29:25.909 --> 01:29:30.140
to enjoy a savory breakfast. I rarely... Which

01:29:30.140 --> 01:29:32.640
does not include the Jeff Daniels sandwich. Yes,

01:29:32.659 --> 01:29:38.060
God no. I am something of a breakfast skipper

01:29:38.060 --> 01:29:40.619
myself, unless it's the weekend. Like, my work

01:29:40.619 --> 01:29:43.859
days, I don't eat breakfast, just because I don't

01:29:43.859 --> 01:29:48.359
have the time nor care to do so. But there's

01:29:48.359 --> 01:29:50.840
so many breakfast foods that are just blocks

01:29:50.840 --> 01:29:55.880
of sugar and carbs, and it leaves your stomach

01:29:55.880 --> 01:29:58.770
feeling... Like, way too full, and then you get,

01:29:58.789 --> 01:30:02.270
like, afternoon blues because your blood sugar's

01:30:02.270 --> 01:30:04.670
plummeting because you ate ten waffles for breakfast.

01:30:05.130 --> 01:30:08.449
Don't sleep on savory breakfast foods. It's honestly

01:30:08.449 --> 01:30:10.930
one of the best food genres out there. Yeah.

01:30:11.109 --> 01:30:14.189
Breakfast burritos? Get fucking real. Oh, yeah.

01:30:14.569 --> 01:30:17.970
Skillets? Unbelievable. Even, I know this is

01:30:17.970 --> 01:30:21.149
a funny meme, but avocado toast is actually really

01:30:21.149 --> 01:30:24.170
good. Baller as hell, you put a little cracked

01:30:24.170 --> 01:30:28.000
egg on top of there? Come on. Dare I say, the

01:30:28.000 --> 01:30:31.720
absolute old school B &E. Damn right. And I'm

01:30:31.720 --> 01:30:33.000
not talking about breaking and entering. I'm

01:30:33.000 --> 01:30:34.960
talking about bacon and eggs. Oh, I was talking

01:30:34.960 --> 01:30:36.600
about breaking and entering. Oh, shit. My bad.

01:30:36.699 --> 01:30:39.279
For breakfast? Come on. Come on. No one expects

01:30:39.279 --> 01:30:41.619
it in the daytime. They really don't, you know?

01:30:42.500 --> 01:30:45.760
Busting Aunt Susie's shed at 7 in the morning

01:30:45.760 --> 01:30:51.359
on a Wednesday. Did you take my shovel? Nah,

01:30:51.359 --> 01:30:52.579
Sue. I don't know what you're talking about.

01:30:53.359 --> 01:30:57.600
You got omelets? Omelets are baller. Mm -hmm.

01:30:58.399 --> 01:31:01.279
Frittatas, if you will. Frittata. What do they

01:31:01.279 --> 01:31:03.899
call that? A quiche? Is that what that's called?

01:31:04.000 --> 01:31:05.960
Quiche. That's a breakfast pie, basically. Breakfast

01:31:05.960 --> 01:31:08.680
pie. All I'm saying, don't sleep on savory food

01:31:08.680 --> 01:31:11.760
for breakfast. Good source of protein. You can

01:31:11.760 --> 01:31:13.579
always do a side salad, get your greens in there.

01:31:13.819 --> 01:31:17.319
If you're doing breakfast, don't eat 100 grams

01:31:17.319 --> 01:31:18.819
of carbs for breakfast. You're going to feel

01:31:18.819 --> 01:31:22.699
like shit come 11 o 'clock. Yep. I agree. I'm

01:31:22.699 --> 01:31:25.569
going to swerve just slightly. Forget the greens.

01:31:27.350 --> 01:31:30.909
Okay. Hey, for once in my life, this is a bit

01:31:30.909 --> 01:31:34.310
of a side quest here, but for once in my life,

01:31:34.529 --> 01:31:37.869
I feel good about being the meat and cheese guy.

01:31:38.250 --> 01:31:41.449
And I'll tell you why. Because all of my vegetarian

01:31:41.449 --> 01:31:44.810
friends are shitting from here to kingdom come.

01:31:46.740 --> 01:31:49.880
Because of lettuce and onion and other shit that...

01:31:49.880 --> 01:31:53.060
Taylor Farms. Taylor Farms. And we can thank...

01:31:53.060 --> 01:31:55.220
God bless Taco Bell for saying, yeah, that shit's

01:31:55.220 --> 01:31:57.220
out of here. Come enjoy some Taco Bell. Yeah.

01:31:58.199 --> 01:32:02.859
But yeah, it... No. And look, I get that there's

01:32:02.859 --> 01:32:04.880
bird flu and mad cow and other shit that we've

01:32:04.880 --> 01:32:07.020
had to deal with. But we've gotten through that.

01:32:07.060 --> 01:32:08.640
I feel better about being the meat and cheese

01:32:08.640 --> 01:32:11.539
guy again. Because, you know what? Other than

01:32:11.539 --> 01:32:14.029
a little bit of caffeine... I got no reason to

01:32:14.029 --> 01:32:16.050
shit my brains out all day long. But I'll tell

01:32:16.050 --> 01:32:19.430
you what, all you salad eaters, I guess I'll

01:32:19.430 --> 01:32:21.970
see you in a few weeks. Once you're off the john.

01:32:22.130 --> 01:32:24.789
Once you're off the john, man. I am such a healthy,

01:32:24.890 --> 01:32:28.489
oh, I'll be back. Yeah, okay, have fun with that.

01:32:28.949 --> 01:32:32.329
Nah, nah, man. You keep your greens and all your

01:32:32.329 --> 01:32:37.170
veggie things, and I will enjoy. Ask me what

01:32:37.170 --> 01:32:39.130
I had for breakfast this morning. What did you

01:32:39.130 --> 01:32:40.789
have for breakfast this morning? I'm glad you

01:32:40.789 --> 01:32:44.449
asked. I had two steaks from Strax that I picked

01:32:44.449 --> 01:32:46.229
up. They were on a sale. Oh, God bless. Like

01:32:46.229 --> 01:32:48.369
those little medallions or whatever, little sirloins.

01:32:48.430 --> 01:32:50.829
Yep. And I forgot about them, and I'm like, oh,

01:32:50.869 --> 01:32:53.130
shit. And I looked this morning, and like their

01:32:53.130 --> 01:32:54.529
expiration date was coming up. I'm like, well,

01:32:54.529 --> 01:32:56.710
shit, I just better cook these things up. So

01:32:56.710 --> 01:33:00.390
pan, a little butter, put them in there, salt,

01:33:00.550 --> 01:33:05.270
pepper, basil, and garlic. Spiced those things

01:33:05.270 --> 01:33:08.699
up, cooked them in a pan, diced them up. Ate

01:33:08.699 --> 01:33:11.079
some steak. Breakfast. God bless. Now, I could

01:33:11.079 --> 01:33:13.159
have added some eggs. Steak and eggs is also

01:33:13.159 --> 01:33:16.119
a winner. Hell yeah. Hell yeah, it is. But yeah,

01:33:16.420 --> 01:33:18.819
I just had chunks of steak this morning. Lovely

01:33:18.819 --> 01:33:20.640
breakfast. That's righteous. Lovely breakfast.

01:33:20.640 --> 01:33:23.220
Protein, straight thing. Straight out. Straight

01:33:23.220 --> 01:33:26.659
out. Yeah. And I was leaving my house, backpack,

01:33:26.920 --> 01:33:28.460
all my stuff, leaving to come here and do some

01:33:28.460 --> 01:33:30.479
content. I'm like, I was happy. Yeah, I feel

01:33:30.479 --> 01:33:33.920
pretty good. I feel pretty good. And I'm not

01:33:33.920 --> 01:33:36.359
shitting all over the place. This is a major

01:33:36.359 --> 01:33:40.340
win. This is a win on so many levels. I woke

01:33:40.340 --> 01:33:44.760
up, downed an energy drink, ate a salad, had

01:33:44.760 --> 01:33:48.079
some mac and cheese, had another energy drink,

01:33:48.300 --> 01:33:51.079
and now we're here. And now we're here. Post

01:33:51.079 --> 01:33:54.119
-Jeff Daniels Challenge. Right. We survived it.

01:33:54.500 --> 01:33:56.560
We survived it. It was mid. We've already had

01:33:56.560 --> 01:33:59.640
that conversation. But we're going to take a

01:33:59.640 --> 01:34:03.210
break. Maybe go eat some more meat. We're going

01:34:03.210 --> 01:34:05.489
to take a break, and when we come back, we've

01:34:05.489 --> 01:34:08.529
got our beer review, and then a surprise tier

01:34:08.529 --> 01:34:15.989
list. All right, we're back for the home stretch

01:34:15.989 --> 01:34:18.689
here on the Mark Mo Show. I'm Mark Maloney. That's

01:34:18.689 --> 01:34:22.090
Aiden Maloney. And we've got our beer review.

01:34:22.529 --> 01:34:25.489
The official beer review. The official beer review.

01:34:25.850 --> 01:34:29.430
The only official beer review. And then we've

01:34:29.430 --> 01:34:33.659
got... tier listing to close things out this

01:34:33.659 --> 01:34:38.060
week. Now, before we do this, I'm just going

01:34:38.060 --> 01:34:43.359
to say head to the old socials. Check out Instagram.

01:34:43.600 --> 01:34:46.520
Primarily Instagram. TikTok's being stupid. Poopyheads.

01:34:47.199 --> 01:34:49.659
But you can find a lot of our awesome content

01:34:49.659 --> 01:34:55.979
on Instagram under a .m .gaming, I think. Something

01:34:55.979 --> 01:34:58.760
like that. If you look up A &M and Co. You'll

01:34:58.760 --> 01:35:02.539
probably find us. But yeah, our tag is... There's

01:35:02.539 --> 01:35:04.119
so many Instagram accounts, it's hard to find

01:35:04.119 --> 01:35:10.020
a tag. We are a .m .co .content is our actual

01:35:10.020 --> 01:35:14.760
handle. So there you go. So you'll find... Our

01:35:14.760 --> 01:35:17.460
collab stuff for our gaming on there. You'll

01:35:17.460 --> 01:35:20.699
find stuff for Aiden's gaming on there. You won't

01:35:20.699 --> 01:35:22.840
find much for the Mark Moe show because it's

01:35:22.840 --> 01:35:25.840
not a very visual show. Occasionally I'll post

01:35:25.840 --> 01:35:28.300
something on the old Facebook or Instagram. Pretty

01:35:28.300 --> 01:35:31.180
static stuff. But some of our best content I

01:35:31.180 --> 01:35:34.600
think you're going to find on the socials. Funny

01:35:34.600 --> 01:35:37.159
clips. Funny stuff. So definitely check that

01:35:37.159 --> 01:35:41.500
out. All right. We're on to beer. And I'm almost

01:35:41.500 --> 01:35:43.260
positive I'll have to do a little research that

01:35:43.260 --> 01:35:46.460
I thought we did. This company, which is called

01:35:46.460 --> 01:35:51.640
Prairie Artisan Ales. And that is from McAllister,

01:35:51.779 --> 01:35:55.800
Oklahoma. I didn't know much about this one.

01:35:56.100 --> 01:35:58.340
I told Aiden when I picked it up, I was hoping

01:35:58.340 --> 01:36:00.479
we didn't do this one. But I'll let Aiden describe

01:36:00.479 --> 01:36:04.300
it. And I'm 99 .9 % sure we haven't. Yeah, this

01:36:04.300 --> 01:36:07.920
artisan ale, if you will, is called Patches.

01:36:08.239 --> 01:36:12.539
It is a sour ale, as you said, from Prairie Artisan

01:36:12.539 --> 01:36:17.170
Ales. Regional Brewery out of Okelahoma. It is

01:36:17.170 --> 01:36:21.649
a sour ale with sour gummy candy. That's the

01:36:21.649 --> 01:36:24.189
whole description. That's it. That Untappd gives.

01:36:24.350 --> 01:36:25.949
We're doing the Untappd app on our phones, not

01:36:25.949 --> 01:36:29.449
sponsored. But it is free if you're a beer enjoyer.

01:36:29.789 --> 01:36:32.270
We're going to rank this on a scale from 0 to

01:36:32.270 --> 01:36:34.109
5 on how much we like it. We'll give you some

01:36:34.109 --> 01:36:39.409
tasting notes. And yeah, it's won multiple Untappd

01:36:39.409 --> 01:36:44.939
awards. It's got like a 4 .09 average. On all

01:36:44.939 --> 01:36:48.140
the rankings. Which is high. Super high. So,

01:36:48.180 --> 01:36:51.239
yeah, down the hatch. All right. I'm looking

01:36:51.239 --> 01:36:55.239
forward to this. Sláinte. Sláinte. Smells great.

01:36:55.760 --> 01:37:00.720
Kind of smells like tea. Like brewed tea. Holy

01:37:00.720 --> 01:37:05.060
cow. Holy cow. Damn. Kind of tastes like some

01:37:05.060 --> 01:37:08.920
of the energy drinks I drink. This. Tastes like

01:37:08.920 --> 01:37:13.939
danger. I am not. Oh, my goodness. Oh, wow. It

01:37:13.939 --> 01:37:17.579
is 5 .5 % ABV, so it's just a touch higher than

01:37:17.579 --> 01:37:21.220
your lagers. Nothing left on the tongue. So clean.

01:37:21.319 --> 01:37:25.060
At all. The sour is not super overpowering. No,

01:37:25.060 --> 01:37:27.539
that's what I was worried about. As Aiden knows

01:37:27.539 --> 01:37:30.800
me, the kids would get these sour gummies. He'd

01:37:30.800 --> 01:37:32.460
be like, Dad, you want some candy? And I'd be

01:37:32.460 --> 01:37:34.279
like, no, I'm okay. He's like, I'll have a piece

01:37:34.279 --> 01:37:36.920
of candy. And then this little sugar bomb thing

01:37:36.920 --> 01:37:39.140
would come my way, and I'd be like, is this sour?

01:37:39.239 --> 01:37:42.979
And they're like, not really, no. And I'd try

01:37:42.979 --> 01:37:45.840
it, and then I don't do sour particularly well.

01:37:46.079 --> 01:37:49.420
And I'd just get this soured look on my face,

01:37:49.420 --> 01:37:51.100
this pucker, and the kids would just all laugh

01:37:51.100 --> 01:37:54.899
at me. Good times. But, yeah, good times for

01:37:54.899 --> 01:37:58.739
some. But this is, like, perfect. Yeah, it's

01:37:58.739 --> 01:38:03.779
a touch sweet, a touch sour. The can itself looks

01:38:03.779 --> 01:38:07.380
super cool. I guess the characters on the front

01:38:07.380 --> 01:38:13.439
are emulating Sour Patch Kids, seemingly. But

01:38:13.439 --> 01:38:16.119
it's kind of funny. Yeah. It's like the two Sour

01:38:16.119 --> 01:38:18.060
Patch Kids giving the other Sour Patch Kid a

01:38:18.060 --> 01:38:20.460
wedgie. They're, like, bullying him. Yeah, the

01:38:20.460 --> 01:38:23.840
orange gummy is definitely being bullied. And

01:38:23.840 --> 01:38:26.039
the red gummy is pulling his underwear and the

01:38:26.039 --> 01:38:27.420
blue gummy is laughing at him. He's laughing

01:38:27.420 --> 01:38:30.380
right in his face. It's kind of funny. What a

01:38:30.380 --> 01:38:33.640
wonderful beer. It's so freaking good, dude.

01:38:33.699 --> 01:38:37.359
Sour ale. I'm blown away. Wow. Wow, wow, wow.

01:38:38.199 --> 01:38:40.260
Yeah, that is quite tasty. It does not taste

01:38:40.260 --> 01:38:43.140
like beer. No, not at all. Like I said, first

01:38:43.140 --> 01:38:45.359
flavor notes, I'm like, oh, this tastes like

01:38:45.359 --> 01:38:48.739
an energy drink I've had before. Yeah. And it's

01:38:48.739 --> 01:38:51.979
not... Not overly sour, like there are some sour

01:38:51.979 --> 01:38:54.039
ales out there, especially ones if they have

01:38:54.039 --> 01:38:56.180
like orange juice in them, that kind of have

01:38:56.180 --> 01:38:59.020
that almost vomitous kind of sour flavor where

01:38:59.020 --> 01:39:00.600
it's like, oh, why does that taste like bile?

01:39:01.159 --> 01:39:04.600
No, this is... Right, because that acidity comes

01:39:04.600 --> 01:39:07.439
through just a little bit. Yep, I agree. This

01:39:07.439 --> 01:39:10.180
just tastes like Sour Patch Kids. Holy crap.

01:39:10.600 --> 01:39:14.920
In a beverage. Yeah. No beeriness, not overly

01:39:14.920 --> 01:39:18.270
sweet, not overly sour. Just straight down the

01:39:18.270 --> 01:39:21.510
middle, tasty. Absolutely well done, Prairie.

01:39:21.590 --> 01:39:24.109
Holy cow. This is spectacular. That's pretty

01:39:24.109 --> 01:39:27.029
damn good. Yeah. Do you recall, because it came

01:39:27.029 --> 01:39:30.350
in a four -pack of 12 -ounce cans. Do you recall

01:39:30.350 --> 01:39:32.710
what the price point was? It was $12. $12, so

01:39:32.710 --> 01:39:35.829
you're looking at $3 a can? Yeah. It's not crazy.

01:39:36.350 --> 01:39:39.409
It's not crazy. It's slightly on the high side,

01:39:39.590 --> 01:39:44.310
but like you're getting an artisan beer. So,

01:39:44.409 --> 01:39:48.939
wow. That's kind of remarkable. They absolutely

01:39:48.939 --> 01:39:52.260
described it. Here's the thing I was questioning

01:39:52.260 --> 01:39:55.020
before we started recording this segment block.

01:39:55.619 --> 01:39:58.859
Specifically on the can, it says sour ale with

01:39:58.859 --> 01:40:01.899
sour gummy candy. So I was wondering, is there

01:40:01.899 --> 01:40:04.020
sour gummy candies in the bottom of this can?

01:40:04.380 --> 01:40:07.380
Because I doubt it. No, I think what they did

01:40:07.380 --> 01:40:09.680
during the brewing process, I think they probably

01:40:09.680 --> 01:40:12.359
just threw bags of gummy candy in there. Right.

01:40:12.560 --> 01:40:16.630
They had to have. I'd believe it. There is. I

01:40:16.630 --> 01:40:19.850
got it on the nose. And the more I'm sipping

01:40:19.850 --> 01:40:22.149
this, I'm getting it again and again. There is

01:40:22.149 --> 01:40:25.090
something herbal in there that is reminding me

01:40:25.090 --> 01:40:28.050
of like an herbal tea. There's a touch of something

01:40:28.050 --> 01:40:31.010
herbal in there. I can't pinpoint it. Interesting.

01:40:31.289 --> 01:40:36.630
But it's got a touch of green tea something or

01:40:36.630 --> 01:40:39.850
matcha, but it just kind of hangs out in the

01:40:39.850 --> 01:40:43.050
background. Right. But yeah, both on the nose

01:40:43.050 --> 01:40:44.550
and then the more I'm sipping it, I'm getting

01:40:44.550 --> 01:40:48.930
that herbal tea something, something in there.

01:40:49.029 --> 01:40:52.829
I swear to God. It's so good. Like anybody that

01:40:52.829 --> 01:40:55.170
likes fruity things or if you're just a huge

01:40:55.170 --> 01:40:57.869
like gummy fan, you'll love this. Absolutely.

01:40:58.010 --> 01:41:00.470
Yeah, there is not one note in here that says

01:41:00.470 --> 01:41:03.369
I'm a beer. And once again, great summer beer

01:41:03.369 --> 01:41:06.609
too. Oh, absolutely. So good. Yeah, and it's

01:41:06.609 --> 01:41:08.170
not one of those sweet beers that's going to

01:41:08.170 --> 01:41:12.180
make you like feel sick or like. hungover by

01:41:12.180 --> 01:41:15.560
3 p .m. Right. And I'll be honest, I'm kind of

01:41:15.560 --> 01:41:18.439
one of those weird dudes that doesn't like to

01:41:18.439 --> 01:41:21.039
drink beer while I'm eating, necessarily. Like,

01:41:21.039 --> 01:41:23.640
I can do it sometimes with pizza. Sure. But most

01:41:23.640 --> 01:41:29.079
times, like, I have to have water or tea or...

01:41:29.079 --> 01:41:31.760
Coffee if it's breakfast. Coffee, water, tea,

01:41:31.800 --> 01:41:35.060
coffee, or soda with, like, food. Like, that's

01:41:35.060 --> 01:41:37.560
just how my palate or my body, like, that's just

01:41:37.560 --> 01:41:39.960
how I work. Sure. I get that. But, like, this?

01:41:40.939 --> 01:41:44.140
If I'm at a barbecue, right, and I got some potato

01:41:44.140 --> 01:41:48.859
salad, and I got a burger and some chips, I am

01:41:48.859 --> 01:41:51.539
grabbing one of these. Like, this is perfect.

01:41:51.779 --> 01:41:55.659
Yeah. This is damn good. Damn good. I'm going

01:41:55.659 --> 01:41:58.260
pretty high. How high do I want to go? That's

01:41:58.260 --> 01:42:02.680
quite nice. I know, right? That's quite nice.

01:42:02.760 --> 01:42:08.460
I'm going to go 425 out of 5. That is absolutely

01:42:08.460 --> 01:42:12.960
in the elite tier. Very tasty. Yeah, it's up

01:42:12.960 --> 01:42:16.420
there. Flavor profile on the app, I gave light

01:42:16.420 --> 01:42:21.479
-bodied, tea, sweet, candy, and sour. Yeah, I

01:42:21.479 --> 01:42:24.939
went fruity, sour, candy, sweet. Yeah. All those

01:42:24.939 --> 01:42:29.800
things, it definitely is. I went, I think, I'm

01:42:29.800 --> 01:42:33.479
pretty sure, I think my highest score ever, 4

01:42:33.479 --> 01:42:38.100
.75. Damn. It's about as high as you can go.

01:42:38.119 --> 01:42:44.180
Yeah. And trust me, I'm a lager. Now, I am an

01:42:44.180 --> 01:42:48.500
ale guy. Sure. But this might be my first sour

01:42:48.500 --> 01:42:51.260
ale. I might have to dive into that a little

01:42:51.260 --> 01:42:53.680
bit if I enjoyed this one. Did we ever try those,

01:42:53.800 --> 01:42:57.140
what are they, 450s, that brand? Those are sours.

01:42:57.340 --> 01:42:59.699
I thought we tried one of those before. I'm not

01:42:59.699 --> 01:43:02.840
sure. I can't remember. We'll have to go back

01:43:02.840 --> 01:43:05.380
in the untapped app and look. Yeah. But I know

01:43:05.380 --> 01:43:06.760
those are sours, too. I thought we did one of

01:43:06.760 --> 01:43:09.380
those before. Perhaps not. But this is wonderful.

01:43:09.640 --> 01:43:13.300
Yeah, I'm going to lock in my score when a trip

01:43:13.300 --> 01:43:16.939
to Dogfish. Oh, wow. That's a craft brewery.

01:43:16.939 --> 01:43:19.500
I don't know where Dogfish is, but that's nice.

01:43:19.500 --> 01:43:22.460
We do get badges in the Untapped app. We do.

01:43:22.659 --> 01:43:25.539
Lovely listeners. Yeah. For certain milestones

01:43:25.539 --> 01:43:28.039
of trying certain things or supporting independent

01:43:28.039 --> 01:43:31.840
breweries. I got a badge here for the can, level

01:43:31.840 --> 01:43:35.640
71. Canning is all the rage. It's not hard to

01:43:35.640 --> 01:43:38.239
see why. Travels well, more environmentally friendly.

01:43:38.460 --> 01:43:42.119
No need to carry your bottle opener. 355 check

01:43:42.119 --> 01:43:44.779
-ins with the serving style of can. Got cheers

01:43:44.779 --> 01:43:47.600
to independent U .S. craft breweries level 65.

01:43:48.420 --> 01:43:51.460
Middle of the road level 60. Pucker up level

01:43:51.460 --> 01:43:55.180
4. Right about now you're feeling your face tighten

01:43:55.180 --> 01:43:57.699
and your taste buds explode. The full pucker

01:43:57.699 --> 01:44:00.060
is quickly setting in and you can't get enough.

01:44:00.359 --> 01:44:04.289
This is the... Wonder of the Sour. 20 different

01:44:04.289 --> 01:44:07.909
sour beers I've tried. That's awesome. I love

01:44:07.909 --> 01:44:12.130
that. I also got untapped at home level 15 and

01:44:12.130 --> 01:44:16.250
middle of the road level 12 on my badges. Right

01:44:16.250 --> 01:44:19.649
on. Damn good beer. That was really good. I'm

01:44:19.649 --> 01:44:22.430
so happy I stumbled across that this morning.

01:44:22.590 --> 01:44:26.529
No kidding. That brings us to our last segment

01:44:26.529 --> 01:44:30.840
of the day, tier listing. I'm looking forward

01:44:30.840 --> 01:44:34.199
to what you have. Well, last week on Tier Listing,

01:44:34.199 --> 01:44:38.600
I had 10 songs from the 1980s and 10 songs from

01:44:38.600 --> 01:44:42.760
the 1990s that I had Mark Moe rank on a scale

01:44:42.760 --> 01:44:46.340
from F being the worst of the worst, D being

01:44:46.340 --> 01:44:49.100
bad, C being mid, B being good, A being great,

01:44:49.180 --> 01:44:53.039
and S being the best of the best. Now we're doing

01:44:53.039 --> 01:44:58.239
70s and 80s songs. Oh, all right. So I have ten

01:44:58.239 --> 01:45:00.600
songs from the 1970s you're going to rank on

01:45:00.600 --> 01:45:03.899
that scale, and ten more songs from the 1980s

01:45:03.899 --> 01:45:07.659
that you will rank on that scale. Okay. Everyone

01:45:07.659 --> 01:45:10.500
clear? Lovely listeners, you ready? We are clear.

01:45:10.979 --> 01:45:13.140
Mark Moe, you ready? I'm ready for the challenge.

01:45:13.220 --> 01:45:15.279
Let's go. Of course, play it home, lovely listeners.

01:45:15.460 --> 01:45:18.020
Give these a letter ranking, and if you disagree

01:45:18.020 --> 01:45:20.000
with Mark Moe, that's between you and him. Leave

01:45:20.000 --> 01:45:22.899
me out of it. You won't mess with me. From the

01:45:22.899 --> 01:45:26.449
70s. Mm -hmm. Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees.

01:45:26.829 --> 01:45:32.449
Not a big disco guy. I can appreciate them for

01:45:32.449 --> 01:45:36.590
their contribution to music in movies. Sure.

01:45:36.710 --> 01:45:39.329
The John Travolta movies and whatnot. And the

01:45:39.329 --> 01:45:41.750
fact Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon mock

01:45:41.750 --> 01:45:44.649
them on SNL, and that's funny. Aside from that,

01:45:44.770 --> 01:45:47.430
I'm not going to rate it badly, but I'll give

01:45:47.430 --> 01:45:50.750
it a C. C? Just not my vibe. That's fair. Immigrant

01:45:50.750 --> 01:45:56.170
Song by Led Zeppelin. Oh, wow. Probably in my

01:45:56.170 --> 01:45:59.170
top five Zeppelin songs of all time. Definitely

01:45:59.170 --> 01:46:02.250
in my top five. I would agree. I would probably

01:46:02.250 --> 01:46:08.090
give that S tier. I like that. S for song. Dancing

01:46:08.090 --> 01:46:11.989
Queen by ABBA. Once again, not an ABBA fan. I

01:46:11.989 --> 01:46:15.989
appreciate them. But there were these movies

01:46:15.989 --> 01:46:19.479
that came out. That revolved around ABBA's music.

01:46:19.819 --> 01:46:21.840
And it just annoyed me. And every time the commercial

01:46:21.840 --> 01:46:25.279
came on TV, it just annoyed me. Yeah. So, C -.

01:46:25.560 --> 01:46:29.300
C -. I like that. Hesitant to go to D on that

01:46:29.300 --> 01:46:32.520
one, I see. Huh? Hesitant to go to D. I was hesitant

01:46:32.520 --> 01:46:35.500
because I do appreciate their contribution to

01:46:35.500 --> 01:46:38.479
music. I just don't appreciate their music. I

01:46:38.479 --> 01:46:42.359
totally get that. Next up in the 70s. What You

01:46:42.359 --> 01:46:46.000
Won't Do for Love by Bobby Caldwell. Bobby fucking

01:46:46.000 --> 01:46:50.159
Caldwell. Indiana Jones looking dude. He does.

01:46:50.399 --> 01:46:52.619
He does. He looks like he's on a quest for a

01:46:52.619 --> 01:46:55.460
crystal skull and all of a sudden he busts out

01:46:55.460 --> 01:46:59.819
these bluesy notes, man. He sounds like Lou Rawls.

01:46:59.960 --> 01:47:04.000
Soulful. So soulful. I'm going to give him an

01:47:04.000 --> 01:47:07.300
A+. A+. You've earned that one, Bobby. Oh, yeah.

01:47:07.399 --> 01:47:13.289
Well done. Roxanne by The Police. Roxanne! Turn

01:47:13.289 --> 01:47:18.869
on the red light! It's a band I like a lot. I'm

01:47:18.869 --> 01:47:21.449
actually the biggest fan of the drummer, Stuart

01:47:21.449 --> 01:47:25.590
Copeland's Unreal. That is a good song. Also

01:47:25.590 --> 01:47:27.489
in the movie 48 Hours, Eddie Murphy sings it.

01:47:27.569 --> 01:47:33.529
It's funny. I'm going to give that one an A grade.

01:47:33.909 --> 01:47:37.560
A grade? Yes. I like that. Brandy. By Looking

01:47:37.560 --> 01:47:40.840
Glass. Oh, I love that freaking song, dude. Hmm.

01:47:45.199 --> 01:47:49.840
All right. Uh -oh. Controversy. Where are we

01:47:49.840 --> 01:47:52.619
going? It's controversy. Controversy time. I'm

01:47:52.619 --> 01:47:56.939
going S tier. Damn. Full S tier for Brandy. Yeah.

01:47:56.960 --> 01:47:59.539
Well done, Looking Glass. Come and Get Your Love

01:47:59.539 --> 01:48:04.039
by Redbone. Come and get your love. It's okay.

01:48:04.180 --> 01:48:08.619
B. B? Yeah. For Redbone. Saturday in the Park

01:48:08.619 --> 01:48:12.739
by Chicago. See, I love Chicago. I love all the

01:48:12.739 --> 01:48:15.739
brass. Oh, yeah. Definitely that big band kind

01:48:15.739 --> 01:48:22.600
of backing, powerful sound. Saturday in the park,

01:48:22.880 --> 01:48:26.140
you'd think it was the 4th of July. Let's go

01:48:26.140 --> 01:48:32.000
A+. A +, I like that. Play That Funky Music by

01:48:32.000 --> 01:48:36.119
Wild Cherry. Play that funky music, white boy.

01:48:37.560 --> 01:48:43.199
Ah. It's a good tune. Good beat. A little disco

01:48:43.199 --> 01:48:46.939
-y. Sure. It's still okay. I'll go solid B. Solid

01:48:46.939 --> 01:48:51.460
B? That's worthy. It's worthy. Final song from

01:48:51.460 --> 01:48:57.069
the 1970s. Piano Man, Billy Joel. Sing me a song,

01:48:57.130 --> 01:49:01.050
yellow piano man. Sing me a song tonight. Well,

01:49:01.130 --> 01:49:03.210
it's weird. It's called Piano Man, but the harmonica

01:49:03.210 --> 01:49:05.350
dude won't shut up. He won't shut up, man. He

01:49:05.350 --> 01:49:07.170
busts in like Piano Man's like, dude, I'm trying

01:49:07.170 --> 01:49:11.510
to... Dude, I want to play. Damn it. Now, I won't

01:49:11.510 --> 01:49:14.350
go into a lot of detail. I'll just say that there's

01:49:14.350 --> 01:49:18.479
probably four or five... billy joel songs i like

01:49:18.479 --> 01:49:21.380
more than piano man sure a lot of songs fall

01:49:21.380 --> 01:49:24.279
to the victim of of commercial success and just

01:49:24.279 --> 01:49:27.380
being played overplayed yeah you know but like

01:49:27.380 --> 01:49:30.979
summer highland falls and new york state of mind

01:49:30.979 --> 01:49:33.539
and oh yeah italian tea some restaurant like

01:49:33.539 --> 01:49:35.619
those are just a pressure like all those are

01:49:35.619 --> 01:49:38.279
great this is still great and it's one everyone

01:49:38.279 --> 01:49:41.760
can sing at the bar Pretty much by heart. By

01:49:41.760 --> 01:49:43.119
heart. Even if you're not a Billy Joel person.

01:49:43.159 --> 01:49:45.119
I'm going to give it this grade because it deserves

01:49:45.119 --> 01:49:47.239
it, even though it's not one of my favorites.

01:49:47.279 --> 01:49:49.020
I've got to go S tier on the old piano man. S

01:49:49.020 --> 01:49:52.720
tier. Damn. Solid, solid. All right, that moves

01:49:52.720 --> 01:49:55.159
us on to the 1980s. We have ten more songs from

01:49:55.159 --> 01:49:59.319
the 1980s. Rapid Fire Time, Mark Moe Show. Okay.

01:49:59.319 --> 01:50:02.180
Of the Mark Moe Show. All right. First up, from

01:50:02.180 --> 01:50:05.760
the 80s. Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley.

01:50:05.840 --> 01:50:08.220
Never gonna give you up. Yeah, that's great.

01:50:08.439 --> 01:50:11.000
It's literally become a meme and everything.

01:50:12.260 --> 01:50:16.239
But let's grade it for what it is. It's an okay

01:50:16.239 --> 01:50:19.680
song. It's so catchy, though. It's super catchy.

01:50:19.859 --> 01:50:23.500
A. A. I'll give it to him. A for Astley. Sweet

01:50:23.500 --> 01:50:27.920
Dreams by Eurythmics. S tier. S tier. You know

01:50:27.920 --> 01:50:31.119
what I'm gonna do? The judge's hand drops an

01:50:31.119 --> 01:50:35.479
S+. Oh, it's such a banger, dude. It is a great

01:50:35.479 --> 01:50:38.720
song. I love it. Really great. Eye of the Tiger

01:50:38.720 --> 01:50:42.979
by Survivor. Another great one from a great movie.

01:50:43.239 --> 01:50:46.979
Did I make this too top -heavy? It might be top

01:50:46.979 --> 01:50:52.640
-heavy. Oh, no. A+. A +, that's solid. Sunglasses

01:50:52.640 --> 01:50:57.180
at Night. By Corey Hart. I wear my sunglasses

01:50:57.180 --> 01:51:00.859
at night. You know, I listen to that song, and

01:51:00.859 --> 01:51:02.720
it is kind of iconic, whether you like it or

01:51:02.720 --> 01:51:06.579
not. I just always had the same question every

01:51:06.579 --> 01:51:08.640
time he starts singing it. I'm like, why? You

01:51:08.640 --> 01:51:11.680
literally see less when visibility is low. Right.

01:51:11.720 --> 01:51:13.760
What are you doing? Unless he looks at streetlights

01:51:13.760 --> 01:51:16.020
and be like, it's too much for me. I got the

01:51:16.020 --> 01:51:20.539
migraine. I'll give it a C+. C+. I think that's

01:51:20.539 --> 01:51:22.859
fair. I really don't know any of the other words

01:51:22.859 --> 01:51:25.119
besides. I wore my sunglasses at night. That's

01:51:25.119 --> 01:51:29.000
all you need to know. Ghostbusters by Ray Parker

01:51:29.000 --> 01:51:34.699
Jr. Gosh darn it. Something strange in the neighborhood.

01:51:36.760 --> 01:51:41.319
I'm going to pick S tier. S tier? Damn. It's

01:51:41.319 --> 01:51:43.880
great. That's up there. Yeah, it's good. Well,

01:51:44.000 --> 01:51:45.979
if we're speaking about 80s movies, how about

01:51:45.979 --> 01:51:49.270
this one? The Power of Love by Huey Lewis and

01:51:49.270 --> 01:51:51.189
the News. It's the power of love. Now, I've seen

01:51:51.189 --> 01:51:54.289
them in concert a couple times. Once again, probably

01:51:54.289 --> 01:51:56.609
two or three tunes that I like a lot more than

01:51:56.609 --> 01:51:59.189
that one. Sure. But it's iconic. It's iconic

01:51:59.189 --> 01:52:05.109
from an amazing trilogy. Gosh darn it. Yeah.

01:52:05.689 --> 01:52:10.710
A. A? Yeah. That's solid. Honestly, let me know

01:52:10.710 --> 01:52:12.250
in the comments, lovely listeners. I may have

01:52:12.250 --> 01:52:16.210
made this too top -heavy. My bad. Down Under

01:52:16.210 --> 01:52:20.970
by Men at Work. Down Under. By the way, I've

01:52:20.970 --> 01:52:23.890
tried Vegemite. Vegemite's terrible. I still

01:52:23.890 --> 01:52:27.510
want to try it. It's salt. Like, literally, my

01:52:27.510 --> 01:52:31.130
quote, it is saltier than salt. It's just, it's,

01:52:31.130 --> 01:52:35.289
ugh. I do love this song, though. It's kind of

01:52:35.289 --> 01:52:39.449
a banger. It kind of is. So 80s. S tier. S tier.

01:52:39.550 --> 01:52:42.899
God bless. I love that song. Centerfold by the

01:52:42.899 --> 01:52:47.220

01:52:47.220 --> 01:52:50.920
great one, too. My love runs cold. My memory

01:52:50.920 --> 01:52:54.619
has just been sold. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Oh, did

01:52:54.619 --> 01:52:57.159
I go too far? I went too far. Come on. God damn

01:52:57.159 --> 01:53:02.220
it. A plus. A plus. It is catchy. Come on, Eileen

01:53:02.220 --> 01:53:06.420
by Dexy's Midnight Runners. It's so great. It's

01:53:06.420 --> 01:53:11.520
so great. It's just, it's kind of. Irish -y and

01:53:11.520 --> 01:53:14.380
punk -y and just, it's fun. It is. It's such

01:53:14.380 --> 01:53:16.800
a fun song. It really is. I love it. The final

01:53:16.800 --> 01:53:19.340
song from the 1980s we're talking about today,

01:53:19.619 --> 01:53:23.899
Tainted Love by Soft Cell. Tainted Love. Now,

01:53:24.060 --> 01:53:27.319
I might like the remake more than the original.

01:53:27.439 --> 01:53:31.220
I do like Marilyn Manson's version. Yeah. Oh,

01:53:31.920 --> 01:53:36.460
God. Oh, God. At Hamilton's, we used to drink

01:53:36.460 --> 01:53:38.380
at Loyola. They used to close out the night to

01:53:38.380 --> 01:53:45.500
this song, too. Shit. Okay, A+. A+. Yeah. That's

01:53:45.500 --> 01:53:48.600
fair. Totally fair. Well, that is the end of

01:53:48.600 --> 01:53:52.420
