WEBVTT 00:00:11.050 --> 00:00:13.710 Welcome to My Weekly Mixtape, a podcast that 00:00:13.710 --> 00:00:16.750 takes the classic mixtape approach to building 00:00:16.750 --> 00:00:19.730 a modern playlist. I'm your host, Brian Colburn. 00:00:19.809 --> 00:00:23.649 Joining me once again as guest curator is frequent 00:00:23.649 --> 00:00:26.629 guest and fellow Pantheon Podcast Network mate, 00:00:26.750 --> 00:00:29.629 Jason Whistle, host of the It's Not That Bad 00:00:29.629 --> 00:00:33.289 and There Can Only Be One podcasts. Jason, welcome 00:00:33.289 --> 00:00:36.490 back, my friend. Hi. Sorry, I was keeping it 00:00:36.490 --> 00:00:41.170 short. I see what you did there. Well, I finally 00:00:41.170 --> 00:00:45.049 reached episode 99 of my weekly mixtape, and 00:00:45.049 --> 00:00:47.549 it's kind of feeling like the end of a cassette 00:00:47.549 --> 00:00:52.070 side because next week, episode 100 drops. And 00:00:52.070 --> 00:00:55.329 with that, the show officially enters into the 00:00:55.329 --> 00:00:58.390 triple digits. So I should start by saying if 00:00:58.390 --> 00:01:02.229 you've listened to even one of those 99 episodes, 00:01:02.609 --> 00:01:05.890 thank you. But with all that said, earlier this 00:01:05.890 --> 00:01:08.859 fall, I had posted up. to the My Weekly Mixtape 00:01:08.859 --> 00:01:12.840 Patreon site, the first ever episode of my first 00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:16.920 ever podcast, Tune Styles, which features frequent 00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:20.060 collaborator here on My Weekly Mixtape, Jay Sweet. 00:01:20.280 --> 00:01:23.980 And we talked about, go figure, the lost art 00:01:23.980 --> 00:01:27.379 of the mixtape. And in that episode, we discussed 00:01:27.379 --> 00:01:31.540 the end of side filler songs. Meaning if you 00:01:31.540 --> 00:01:34.420 had a little bit of tape left at the end of a 00:01:34.420 --> 00:01:37.719 cassette side. and you weren't 100 % sure you 00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:40.939 had enough room for a full song, you needed to 00:01:40.939 --> 00:01:44.359 fill that time while making sure the song didn't 00:01:44.359 --> 00:01:47.760 get cut off mid -guitar solo. So with that, I 00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:50.180 thought it would be fun as my last double -digit 00:01:50.180 --> 00:01:53.859 episode to come up with a playlist that featured 00:01:53.859 --> 00:01:58.540 those type of songs. So for me, my bank of tracks 00:01:58.540 --> 00:02:02.040 wrote itself instantly. Jason, did you run into 00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:05.250 a similar situation on your end? See, I got the 00:02:05.250 --> 00:02:07.689 wrong memo. I heard episode 99 and I tried to 00:02:07.689 --> 00:02:09.909 find every song about Wayne Gretzky that I possibly 00:02:09.909 --> 00:02:13.789 could. And I might have the wrong song. No, no. 00:02:13.830 --> 00:02:17.789 In all honesty, this is a fun one because I listen 00:02:17.789 --> 00:02:21.330 to a lot of comedy music. I listen to a lot of 00:02:21.330 --> 00:02:24.949 punk. And there's a lot just in those two genres 00:02:24.949 --> 00:02:28.930 alone that have songs that are brief, if you 00:02:28.930 --> 00:02:32.409 will. And you can't go wrong. Like, I'll admit, 00:02:32.550 --> 00:02:35.889 I never sat there and timed out and did the math 00:02:35.889 --> 00:02:38.629 as far as songs on a mixtape went. I was getting 00:02:38.629 --> 00:02:40.370 to the point where I could take a look at how 00:02:40.370 --> 00:02:43.310 much of the actual tape was left on the spool 00:02:43.310 --> 00:02:45.389 and sit there and go, that looks like about two 00:02:45.389 --> 00:02:47.030 and a half minutes. I think I can put this song 00:02:47.030 --> 00:02:49.689 in, which tells me I made far too many mixtapes 00:02:49.689 --> 00:02:52.210 in my day. But still, you always had to have 00:02:52.210 --> 00:02:55.629 something in your bank. And maybe this kind of 00:02:55.629 --> 00:02:58.530 fits as well into you'll probably relate to this. 00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:00.879 Playing in a band, you sit there and you try 00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:02.780 to figure out how many songs you can fit into 00:03:02.780 --> 00:03:05.939 a 45 -minute set or an hour -long set. And the 00:03:05.939 --> 00:03:08.460 worst part is when you're sitting in there playing 00:03:08.460 --> 00:03:11.199 a New Year's Eve show and you realize that you 00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:13.879 have about two minutes until you have to start 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:15.860 the countdown to New Year's Eve. And you sit 00:03:15.860 --> 00:03:18.280 there and go, do we have a song that fits in 00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:22.520 that? We did it once. We played Hash Pipe. But 00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:28.659 we played it at like triple speed. I can't believe 00:03:28.659 --> 00:03:31.039 my fingers were moving that fast. And at this 00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:32.659 point, the audience is looking at us like, are 00:03:32.659 --> 00:03:34.319 they on cocaine? Because I'm starting to think 00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:37.680 that they're on cocaine. But no, you have to 00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:39.780 have some of those short songs at the bank in 00:03:39.780 --> 00:03:41.800 case you need to fill out just a little bit. 00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:45.080 Well, I'm going to venture to guess that this 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:49.300 might be one of, if not the shortest playlist 00:03:49.300 --> 00:03:52.620 in my weekly mixtape history. Jason, do you think 00:03:52.620 --> 00:03:55.199 that tonight you and I can keep this playlist 00:03:55.199 --> 00:04:00.620 below 30 minutes for all 20 songs? I think we're 00:04:00.620 --> 00:04:02.439 going to have to call this the anti -Sean Faust 00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:06.120 list because, as you know, Sean, who has been 00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:08.979 on both of our shows, has a penchant for long 00:04:08.979 --> 00:04:11.199 songs to the point where I remember correctly 00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:14.479 when he was on There Can Only Be One doing the 00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:18.180 Dream Theater episode, his playlist from that 00:04:18.180 --> 00:04:23.319 episode equaled close to three hours long. So 00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:26.879 there were some long songs. And for the record, 00:04:27.139 --> 00:04:30.339 Brian would not let me put. The whirlwind by 00:04:30.339 --> 00:04:33.560 Transatlantic on this cassette seems how it clocks 00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:38.220 in at about 75 minutes. Well, since you answered 00:04:38.220 --> 00:04:43.420 it that way, let's see how short we could keep 00:04:43.420 --> 00:04:46.500 our short songs playlist tonight. I'm going to 00:04:46.500 --> 00:04:49.660 keep track of the times of these songs as we 00:04:49.660 --> 00:04:53.899 go through, and we're going to see how long tonight's. 00:04:54.220 --> 00:04:58.259 playlist is. So with that said, let's get down 00:04:58.259 --> 00:05:00.839 to business. Tonight, as I mentioned at the top 00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.379 of the show, Jason and I will be curating the 00:05:03.379 --> 00:05:06.160 ultimate short songs mixtape, and we'll use the 00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:09.040 old cassette deck approach. Jason, as my special 00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:11.259 guest, will begin side A with his first song 00:05:11.259 --> 00:05:13.639 choice, and then I'll add a song that I feel 00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.399 best follows up that choice. We'll then flip 00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:19.040 -flop choosing songs until we've mapped out 10 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:22.259 songs for side A. We'll then give our mixtape 00:05:22.259 --> 00:05:24.819 a proverbial flip and we'll map outside. Be only 00:05:24.819 --> 00:05:27.439 this time, I'll kick things off with Jason choosing 00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:30.660 second. Our overall goal for this episode is 00:05:30.660 --> 00:05:34.120 to craft the best and possibly shortest short 00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:37.540 songs mixtape possible through only 20 songs. 00:05:37.860 --> 00:05:40.180 At the end of the show, you can take our conversation 00:05:40.180 --> 00:05:42.899 to the next level by visiting the episode page 00:05:42.899 --> 00:05:46.879 at myweeklymixtape .com to give our final mixtape 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:50.050 a listen. via the embedded playlist. And if you 00:05:50.050 --> 00:05:51.529 like what you're hearing on the show, you can 00:05:51.529 --> 00:05:54.089 help me out by either telling a friend, leaving 00:05:54.089 --> 00:05:56.029 the show a five -star review wherever you're 00:05:56.029 --> 00:05:59.350 tuning in, or becoming a Patreon mixtaper at 00:05:59.350 --> 00:06:02.930 patreon .com forward slash My Weekly Mixtape. 00:06:03.050 --> 00:06:05.750 There you can find ad -free episodes of the show, 00:06:05.930 --> 00:06:08.850 gain early access to future My Weekly Mixtape 00:06:08.850 --> 00:06:11.870 episodes, chime in on upcoming topics, become 00:06:11.870 --> 00:06:15.050 a future guest, and so much more. And a few of 00:06:15.050 --> 00:06:17.329 the Patreon mixtapers chimed in with songs they 00:06:17.329 --> 00:06:20.269 would use to kick things off tonight. And I want 00:06:20.269 --> 00:06:23.410 to give a shout out to a few of those. Chad LaMassa 00:06:23.410 --> 00:06:25.790 chimed in with the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Pretty 00:06:25.790 --> 00:06:28.389 Little Diddy. The original, which appeared on 00:06:28.389 --> 00:06:31.689 Mother's Mel, clocks in at 135. Although if you're 00:06:31.689 --> 00:06:34.009 listening on streaming, you're going to get the 00:06:34.009 --> 00:06:38.389 2003 remastered version, which clocks in at 307, 00:06:38.529 --> 00:06:41.350 which kind of takes us out of the short songs 00:06:41.350 --> 00:06:44.430 list. But I know where Chad was going with this, 00:06:44.449 --> 00:06:47.610 going with the 135 original. And yes, I did look 00:06:47.610 --> 00:06:50.699 all of these up. Tom Hutchinson chimed in with 00:06:50.699 --> 00:06:53.639 Agent Orange's bloodstains, which clocked in 00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:56.759 at two minutes and six seconds. Jimmy Mitchell 00:06:56.759 --> 00:06:59.620 chimed in with the letter by the Box Tops. That 00:06:59.620 --> 00:07:03.439 song clocks in at a minute and 52 seconds. Seeker 00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:06.019 chimed in with the Pixies' Broken Face, which 00:07:06.019 --> 00:07:09.459 clocks in at 90 seconds. Mike Daly chimed in 00:07:09.459 --> 00:07:11.959 with the intro to Van Halen's Little Guitars, 00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:16.040 clocking in at 42 seconds. Sean Goff chimed in 00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:18.279 with the White Stripes' Little Room, which clocks 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.889 in at 50 seconds. Philip Bergman chimed in with 00:07:21.889 --> 00:07:24.250 Weird Al Yankovic's Harvey the Wonder Hamster, 00:07:24.310 --> 00:07:28.189 which clocks in at 21 seconds, and Monty Python's 00:07:28.189 --> 00:07:30.149 I Bet You Won't Play This Song on the Radio, 00:07:30.430 --> 00:07:34.329 which clocks in at 55 seconds. Christopher Stile 00:07:34.329 --> 00:07:37.509 chimed in with two songs from TNT, Sapphire, 00:07:37.610 --> 00:07:40.569 which clocks in at a minute and 14 seconds, and 00:07:40.569 --> 00:07:44.209 Smooth Syncopation, which clocks in at 49 seconds. 00:07:44.970 --> 00:07:47.910 and Brandon from Virginia chimed in with SOD's 00:07:47.910 --> 00:07:51.329 What's That Noise, which clocks in at 59 seconds, 00:07:51.529 --> 00:07:55.750 and Dead Kennedy's Short Songs, all 28 seconds 00:07:55.750 --> 00:07:58.449 of it. Once again, if you'd like to chime in 00:07:58.449 --> 00:08:01.350 for future My Weekly Mixtape episodes, come join 00:08:01.350 --> 00:08:04.370 the fellow mixtapers at patreon .com forward 00:08:04.370 --> 00:08:08.550 slash myweeklymixtape. So Jason, with that said, 00:08:08.569 --> 00:08:11.069 I'm officially pressing the record button on 00:08:11.069 --> 00:08:13.910 our mixtape, and in the spirit of short songs, 00:08:18.500 --> 00:08:20.920 Oh, the jokes are going to be going back and 00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:24.500 forth here, aren't they? Okay. I'm going to preface 00:08:24.500 --> 00:08:27.980 this pick knowing full well that what I'm about 00:08:27.980 --> 00:08:30.839 to say is probably going to give Brian an idea 00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:33.980 for a future episode of my weekly mixtape. So 00:08:33.980 --> 00:08:36.460 I'm going to tease you with a good time here. 00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:39.120 I'm just going to put it out there. But my song 00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:43.639 is basically a crime because it comes from a 00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:48.029 movie. But it never actually made the soundtrack. 00:08:48.769 --> 00:08:50.990 Oh, I think I know where you're going. I think 00:08:50.990 --> 00:08:54.690 I know where you're going. Clocking in at 12 00:08:54.690 --> 00:09:00.529 seconds long. Yes! Wienerschnitzel by The Descendants. 00:09:01.509 --> 00:09:04.889 Pump up the volume. First of all, I love the 00:09:04.889 --> 00:09:06.970 pump up the volume soundtrack. I mean, it really 00:09:06.970 --> 00:09:11.669 was so good. And maybe the best ever cover. of 00:09:11.669 --> 00:09:13.990 a Leonard Cohen song thanks to Concrete Blonde. 00:09:14.090 --> 00:09:17.409 But Descendants, Wienerschnitzel, first of all, 00:09:17.429 --> 00:09:20.590 hilarious. But it's not on the soundtrack. Also, 00:09:20.690 --> 00:09:24.950 neither is Dad, I'm in Jail. Neither is The Original, 00:09:25.210 --> 00:09:28.370 everybody knows, from Leonard Cohen. Neither 00:09:28.370 --> 00:09:31.009 is Love Comes in Spurts. Neither is Scenario 00:09:31.009 --> 00:09:33.250 by The Beast. You could basically have Pump Up 00:09:33.250 --> 00:09:36.750 the Volume, Volume 2, or you just, you know, 00:09:36.750 --> 00:09:39.250 have an episode of my weekly mixtape of songs 00:09:39.250 --> 00:09:41.799 from movies that never made the soundtrack. Not 00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:45.000 saying, but I'm saying. Putting a pin in that 00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:48.320 one as we speak. Although I will say that if 00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:50.679 we ever, because, you know, Hollywood doesn't 00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:53.139 really have original ideas. Somewhere down the 00:09:53.139 --> 00:09:54.840 road, someone's going to come up with an idea 00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:57.279 of like, all right, picture it. Pump up the volume, 00:09:57.340 --> 00:09:59.840 a remake. But instead of like amateur radio, 00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:06.450 it's a podcaster. I'm not going to lie. There's 00:10:06.450 --> 00:10:09.389 a small part of my childhood that probably thinks 00:10:09.389 --> 00:10:13.029 this podcast is in some way, directly or indirectly, 00:10:13.330 --> 00:10:16.769 because of the first ever Triple H character 00:10:16.769 --> 00:10:19.370 in my life. And no, I'm not talking about Hunter 00:10:19.370 --> 00:10:22.629 Hearst Helmsley from the WWE. I'm talking about 00:10:22.629 --> 00:10:25.169 Happy Harry. And you can watch the movie if you 00:10:25.169 --> 00:10:28.110 don't know what that reference is. I can't remember 00:10:28.110 --> 00:10:30.529 what actual episode of It's Not That Bad it's 00:10:30.529 --> 00:10:33.970 on. But I remember Carrie actually watched this 00:10:33.970 --> 00:10:38.389 movie so much. that she had the Eat Me, Beat 00:10:38.389 --> 00:10:43.570 Me Lady poem memorized. I don't know whether 00:10:43.570 --> 00:10:46.169 I should be impressed or scared. I absolutely 00:10:46.169 --> 00:10:49.490 love the movie. I love the pic. It was on my 00:10:49.490 --> 00:10:52.610 list. Of course it was on my list. I actually 00:10:52.610 --> 00:10:56.350 had several Descendants songs on my list, depending 00:10:56.350 --> 00:10:59.370 on which way you went and what you started with. 00:10:59.429 --> 00:11:03.909 I had their four second all or the four second 00:11:03.909 --> 00:11:09.169 no all. or the 17 -second I Like Food or the 00:11:09.169 --> 00:11:11.889 34 -second Coffee Mug if you wanted to bring 00:11:11.889 --> 00:11:15.470 some 90s descendants into the fold. But instead, 00:11:15.629 --> 00:11:18.129 we kick things off tonight with the, according 00:11:18.129 --> 00:11:22.529 to Spotify here, 12 -seconds -long Wienerschnitzel 00:11:22.529 --> 00:11:27.850 from 1981's Fat EP. I actually owned it on another 00:11:27.850 --> 00:11:30.750 Descendants comp that was called Two Things at 00:11:30.750 --> 00:11:34.179 Once. And it put a couple of their albums together 00:11:34.179 --> 00:11:38.120 on one. Love the pick, but damn it, you took 00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:41.879 Descendants off the table. And Descendants, if 00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:43.860 you go back and listen to that first Toon Styles 00:11:43.860 --> 00:11:46.120 episode, was definitely one that I talked about, 00:11:46.259 --> 00:11:50.200 as is this next one, because I know if I don't 00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:52.759 choose it, you will. So I got to beat you to 00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:54.879 the punch because I know you're an Anthrax fan. 00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:58.269 And no, it's not Anthrax. But I am going to go 00:11:58.269 --> 00:12:02.389 back to 1985's Speak English or Die, and I'm 00:12:02.389 --> 00:12:04.889 going to go with S .O .D. or the Stormtroopers 00:12:04.889 --> 00:12:08.570 of Death, Diamonds and Rust, the extended version, 00:12:08.850 --> 00:12:12.950 clocking in at six seconds. Now, on the original 00:12:12.950 --> 00:12:17.190 CD, the song was called Diamonds and Rust, extended 00:12:17.190 --> 00:12:20.509 version. But as I'm looking right here on screen, 00:12:20.649 --> 00:12:23.750 on streaming, it's only listed as Diamonds and 00:12:23.750 --> 00:12:26.629 Rust. It says it's six seconds long. I think 00:12:26.629 --> 00:12:29.370 the original CD listed the track as two seconds 00:12:29.370 --> 00:12:33.870 long. So not only did they shorten the actual 00:12:33.870 --> 00:12:37.029 title, taking the extended version off of the 00:12:37.029 --> 00:12:40.190 song title, they tripled the length of the song. 00:12:40.230 --> 00:12:43.049 But alas, I digress. I could have went with a 00:12:43.049 --> 00:12:45.769 bunch of stuff from this album. Hey Gordy clocks 00:12:45.769 --> 00:12:49.230 in at five seconds long. The Ballad of Jimi Hendrix 00:12:49.230 --> 00:12:52.879 is four seconds long. Anti -procrastination song 00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:56.580 is three seconds long. I mean, if I had a lot 00:12:56.580 --> 00:12:58.500 of tape left at the end of the side, Jason, I 00:12:58.500 --> 00:13:00.740 could have went with Chromatic Death at 40 seconds. 00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:04.399 Or if I was making a mix for one of my buddies 00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:06.379 and I wanted to troll them at the end of the 00:13:06.379 --> 00:13:09.360 side, I'd go with Brandon from Virginia's pick 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.940 and go with What's That Noise? Because you know, 00:13:12.019 --> 00:13:15.200 if my friends had the headphones cranked up and 00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:17.279 What's That Noise starts and that distortion 00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:20.570 starts ringing through the headphones. It's trolling 00:13:20.570 --> 00:13:23.889 before trolling existed. There's no way I can't 00:13:23.889 --> 00:13:26.669 go with an S .O .D. song if we're talking short 00:13:26.669 --> 00:13:29.450 songs. So Diamonds and Rust extended version. 00:13:29.649 --> 00:13:31.730 And I talked a hell of a lot longer than the 00:13:31.730 --> 00:13:33.850 length of that song. I mean, it's Stormtroopers 00:13:33.850 --> 00:13:36.929 of Death. You knew you knew they were going to 00:13:36.929 --> 00:13:40.450 be on my radar. So I scooped you on Descendants. 00:13:40.470 --> 00:13:44.149 You scooped me on Stormtroopers of Death. And 00:13:44.149 --> 00:13:46.370 I'm pretty darn skippy. I'm going to scoop you 00:13:46.370 --> 00:13:49.990 on this next pick. But I'm going to take my time 00:13:49.990 --> 00:13:53.990 because this is an elongated song for what we're 00:13:53.990 --> 00:13:58.789 talking about. At 45 seconds long. Oh, it's like 00:13:58.789 --> 00:14:02.070 a fish song here? Right? We're close to a Dream 00:14:02.070 --> 00:14:05.169 Theater song at this point. But I'm going with 00:14:05.169 --> 00:14:09.029 one of the best comedy metal bands out there 00:14:09.029 --> 00:14:15.799 today, Psycho Stick. With bacon, egg, and cheese 00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:20.200 on toast with sriracha. Which, A, is arguably 00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:22.519 one of the happiest, boppiest songs they've actually 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:25.480 done. And I guarantee you, I went through a number 00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:27.279 of Psycho Stick albums to sit there and say, 00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:28.919 come on, give me something that's under a minute. 00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:30.779 Give me something that's short. Give me bacon, 00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:33.299 eggs, and cheese on toast with sriracha, racha, 00:14:33.460 --> 00:14:36.139 racha. And it's going to get stuck in your head. 00:14:36.379 --> 00:14:39.850 Like, I don't even like sriracha. But I want 00:14:39.850 --> 00:14:43.049 a bacon egg with cheese on toast now with sriracha 00:14:43.049 --> 00:14:45.950 because it's an earworm. And Psycho Stick is 00:14:45.950 --> 00:14:48.230 so good at this. This is one of those things 00:14:48.230 --> 00:14:51.149 where you can have a comedy group doing music, 00:14:51.149 --> 00:14:54.409 but it doesn't work unless they are musically 00:14:54.409 --> 00:14:57.830 talented. That's why Steel Panther works. That's 00:14:57.830 --> 00:15:01.070 why Spinal Tap works. And it's definitely why 00:15:01.070 --> 00:15:03.250 Psycho Stick works. And I wish that Psycho Stick 00:15:03.250 --> 00:15:06.259 was getting bigger. because they deserve it. 00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:08.700 Like I've seen them live and they are so good 00:15:08.700 --> 00:15:11.820 live. They are ridiculously talented live and 00:15:11.820 --> 00:15:14.700 watch them as a bassist. I love them because 00:15:14.700 --> 00:15:16.799 they have phenomenal bass lines. I hate them 00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:18.379 because they're ridiculously talented and have 00:15:18.379 --> 00:15:19.980 phenomenal bass lines and I can't play them. 00:15:22.419 --> 00:15:26.000 I mean, what can I say other than Racha, Racha, 00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:31.120 Racha, Racha, breakfast. I love the pic. That 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:35.639 was from 2018's due album. I actually had dogs 00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:39.860 like socks from there for revenge of the vengeance 00:15:39.860 --> 00:15:42.799 on my list, but that one clocks in at a minute 00:15:42.799 --> 00:15:46.840 and nine. And that to me really just felt like 00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:50.419 I was going way off into jam band territory with 00:15:50.419 --> 00:15:54.110 a short song. But I love Psycho Stick. I love 00:15:54.110 --> 00:15:57.110 the fact you included it. And it's not the first 00:15:57.110 --> 00:16:00.169 time Psycho Stick has been discussed on a My 00:16:00.169 --> 00:16:03.730 Weekly Mixtape episode. So if you go back through 00:16:03.730 --> 00:16:06.169 the discography, maybe on one of the suggested 00:16:06.169 --> 00:16:10.289 episodes that I drop on the episode page, I'll 00:16:10.289 --> 00:16:13.129 put an episode that also features some Psycho 00:16:13.129 --> 00:16:16.870 Stick talk. Love the choice. And what I'm going 00:16:16.870 --> 00:16:21.389 to do. Is take Psycho Stick and go a little heavier. 00:16:22.070 --> 00:16:26.230 A lot heavier. But I'm going to stay in the 80s. 00:16:26.350 --> 00:16:29.710 And I'm going to go off of their 1987 album, 00:16:29.850 --> 00:16:33.529 Scum. And we're going to go death metal. And 00:16:33.529 --> 00:16:36.649 we're going to go with Napalm Death's You Suffer. 00:16:36.990 --> 00:16:41.110 The lyrics are, you suffer, but why? The song 00:16:41.110 --> 00:16:45.190 clocks in at five seconds long. but it is listed 00:16:45.190 --> 00:16:48.570 on other websites as two seconds long. I don't 00:16:48.570 --> 00:16:51.830 know how they crammed You Suffer But Why into 00:16:51.830 --> 00:16:53.750 this song, but when you hear it, you'll understand. 00:16:54.309 --> 00:16:56.649 It's kind of like the Micro Machine Man level 00:16:56.649 --> 00:17:00.710 of speed of delivery in death metal form. So 00:17:00.710 --> 00:17:04.369 following up Psycho Stick, Napalm Deaths, You 00:17:04.369 --> 00:17:08.369 Suffer. I mean, we could keep it light. You know, 00:17:08.430 --> 00:17:11.910 we could keep it up and boppy. Or we can go the 00:17:11.910 --> 00:17:14.130 other way. I like that left turn in Albuquerque. 00:17:14.250 --> 00:17:18.609 I do. Okay. You don't have anything else to say 00:17:18.609 --> 00:17:22.390 about that song? It's six seconds long. What 00:17:22.390 --> 00:17:25.890 are you supposed to say about six seconds? Okay. 00:17:27.029 --> 00:17:30.210 I see you're heavy and I match your heavy here. 00:17:30.309 --> 00:17:33.930 But I'm going to go a little bit longer. I'm 00:17:33.930 --> 00:17:37.089 going to go to 49 seconds here. So I'm just taking 00:17:37.089 --> 00:17:41.119 all the tape here. 49 seconds long. And I'm going 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:44.180 to go with a song that with lyrics that can only 00:17:44.180 --> 00:17:46.500 be described as being written by a monkey in 00:17:46.500 --> 00:17:51.460 heat. I'm going to go with twist by court. I 00:17:51.460 --> 00:17:54.440 think I broke Brian on this one here. You're 00:17:54.440 --> 00:17:59.299 now hearing it in your head. Yeah. I'm never 00:17:59.299 --> 00:18:04.619 taking my kids to the zoo again. Or a corn concert 00:18:04.619 --> 00:18:09.960 for that matter. I mean, here's the thing. This 00:18:09.960 --> 00:18:12.200 second album, Life is Peachy. I mean, it's a 00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:15.640 fantastic album. And when Korn came out, it's 00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:17.279 like, oh, my God, this first album is amazing. 00:18:17.500 --> 00:18:20.319 Then Life is Peachy comes out. And it took me 00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:22.220 a little bit to kind of get into it because that 00:18:22.220 --> 00:18:26.059 first album was so good. But this is not one 00:18:26.059 --> 00:18:28.960 of those sophomore slump albums. You know, going 00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:32.839 from Twist. into chai like it is or chi however 00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:35.180 you want to pronounce it like this is a solid 00:18:35.180 --> 00:18:38.279 freaking album and really those first like three 00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:41.779 four albums from corn it was hit after hit after 00:18:41.779 --> 00:18:45.819 hit after hit but this one and you know you think 00:18:45.819 --> 00:18:48.660 about memorable songs from the album you go back 00:18:48.660 --> 00:18:50.299 to the first one you've got the the one with 00:18:50.299 --> 00:18:52.640 all the the nursery rhymes and then you've got 00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:56.359 this yep yep and then you've got this Also, you've 00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:58.759 got Adidas on this album, so that's going to 00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:00.799 definitely get stuck in your head. But this one, 00:19:00.859 --> 00:19:03.539 like this is how you're introducing your album. 00:19:04.140 --> 00:19:07.839 Album opener. Thumbs up. I approve. I'm kind 00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:10.740 of disappointed as I look at the streaming site 00:19:10.740 --> 00:19:14.200 to confirm it is 49 seconds. It only has the 00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:17.039 lyrics twist as the lyrics. I mean, how great 00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:19.660 would it be if it actually wrote out you not 00:19:19.660 --> 00:19:24.519 who rat dot dot net do rat greatest karaoke song 00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:29.220 ever, right? Take that. I got to get it on board 00:19:29.220 --> 00:19:32.720 for that one. Can you imagine having to like 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:34.990 transcribe that for closed captioning? I'll be 00:19:34.990 --> 00:19:37.829 honest, I've seen Korn perform Twist several 00:19:37.829 --> 00:19:41.730 times. And besides Blind, it's, I think, the 00:19:41.730 --> 00:19:43.630 biggest song of the night, in my opinion, of 00:19:43.630 --> 00:19:45.430 every time I've seen them. There's something 00:19:45.430 --> 00:19:48.369 about that song, as silly as it is, the crowd 00:19:48.369 --> 00:19:51.250 just eats it up. Not as much as the opening ride 00:19:51.250 --> 00:19:53.670 symbol at the beginning of Blind. That is just 00:19:53.670 --> 00:19:58.170 insanity. I've been in the pit for a Blind. It 00:19:58.170 --> 00:20:02.309 was Korn and Stained in 2000 touring together. 00:20:03.069 --> 00:20:05.369 Blind was one of the most insane pits I've ever 00:20:05.369 --> 00:20:09.029 been in in my entire life. But Twist was up there. 00:20:09.109 --> 00:20:11.569 People went nuts during that one. Yeah, Blind 00:20:11.569 --> 00:20:13.349 is one of those songs that kind of calls for 00:20:13.349 --> 00:20:16.930 the wall of death. Just ride that ride. Are you 00:20:16.930 --> 00:20:19.730 ready? And watch the people collide. There you 00:20:19.730 --> 00:20:22.670 go. Well, I'm going to keep it heavy. And I'm 00:20:22.670 --> 00:20:24.769 going to go with, for at least with my song so 00:20:24.769 --> 00:20:30.349 far, a jammy, jammy pick at 26 seconds. But we're 00:20:30.349 --> 00:20:32.349 going to bring a little bit of that. end of the 00:20:32.349 --> 00:20:35.130 era hair metal into this. And I'm going to go 00:20:35.130 --> 00:20:39.930 with Ugly Kid Joe's Heavy Metal from 1991's As 00:20:39.930 --> 00:20:43.049 Ugly As They Wanna Be. And once again, as I'm 00:20:43.049 --> 00:20:45.210 seeing here, the lyric sites are getting, in 00:20:45.210 --> 00:20:47.849 my opinion, wrong because it lists the words 00:20:47.849 --> 00:20:50.369 heavy and metal as the lyrics, but it misses 00:20:50.369 --> 00:20:54.470 the ooh and the yeah and the Rob Halford -esque 00:20:54.470 --> 00:20:57.430 scream at the end of the song. This one ended 00:20:57.430 --> 00:21:01.339 up on so many mixtapes. for me, especially because 00:21:01.339 --> 00:21:04.339 I made a lot of mixtapes of hair metal, because 00:21:04.339 --> 00:21:07.220 that's what most of my cassettes were from like 00:21:07.220 --> 00:21:10.880 fourth grade to eighth grade. So this one made 00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:14.220 a ton of them. Also at the end of a CD too, when 00:21:14.220 --> 00:21:17.619 you were burning a CD and you only had like 30 00:21:17.619 --> 00:21:19.559 seconds left, you could fit that in there and 00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:22.880 use every last second of that burn CD. It was 00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:25.420 the perfect song to end a metal disc or a hair 00:21:25.420 --> 00:21:28.559 band disc. You paid for the 80 minutes. You're 00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:31.640 going to burn the 80 minutes. Yeah, no. Ugly 00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:34.059 Kid Joe are great. They're fantastic. I still 00:21:34.059 --> 00:21:36.599 remember, too, when we were talking about the 00:21:36.599 --> 00:21:40.940 Songs of 1991 episode of Playlist Wars. We're 00:21:40.940 --> 00:21:43.019 going back a few years there, aren't we? Yeah. 00:21:43.059 --> 00:21:46.519 About three years there. And the fact that that 00:21:46.519 --> 00:21:49.880 first Ugly Kid Joe EP came out in 1991 before 00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:52.900 their first full -length studio album. So we 00:21:52.900 --> 00:21:55.140 kind of mentioned that there. But yeah, you can't 00:21:55.140 --> 00:21:56.480 go wrong with Ugly Kid Joe. kid joe and i like 00:21:56.480 --> 00:21:58.059 the fact that you're kind of pulling it back 00:21:58.059 --> 00:22:00.400 a little bit from the extreme heavy of napalm 00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:03.839 death and corn because i know exactly where to 00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:09.240 go from here and i'm gonna go with a song off 00:22:09.240 --> 00:22:13.920 of one of my favorite albums from the early 90s 00:22:13.920 --> 00:22:17.539 off of the lizard by saigon kick i'm going to 00:22:17.539 --> 00:22:23.240 go with my dog so i i recognize i'm taking maybe 00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:28.259 all the time here at 52 seconds long because 00:22:28.259 --> 00:22:30.519 this is literally that transatlantic song at 00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:33.279 this point that that 52 second song but i mean 00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:35.880 the lizard was such a good album right god of 00:22:35.880 --> 00:22:39.059 40 seconds straight the title track love is on 00:22:39.059 --> 00:22:42.180 the way chanel which is just an earworm of a 00:22:42.180 --> 00:22:45.420 freaking song but then my dog pops on right in 00:22:45.420 --> 00:22:49.240 the middle of the album And it's got a really 00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:52.440 cool, very almost suicidal tendencies, infectious 00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:55.819 groove kind of riff to it. And it's all about 00:22:55.819 --> 00:23:01.380 someone's dead dog. And it's sad, but happy in 00:23:01.380 --> 00:23:05.900 a way. Odd that it's on the same album as Love 00:23:05.900 --> 00:23:09.420 is on the Way. That's for sure. Easily, I'm going 00:23:09.420 --> 00:23:12.640 to go on a limb and say, besides Napalm Death, 00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:14.980 this might easily be the most depressing song 00:23:14.980 --> 00:23:19.180 on the playlist. Tonight, but a really funky 00:23:19.180 --> 00:23:22.920 groove. And I think we need a palate cleanser 00:23:22.920 --> 00:23:26.980 after this one. So what I'm going to do is for 00:23:26.980 --> 00:23:29.980 my next pick, instead of talking about it, I'm 00:23:29.980 --> 00:23:33.240 going to perform it for you and everybody listening. 00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:36.980 If you'll allow me, Jay. Please. You got the 00:23:36.980 --> 00:23:39.839 lyrics you printed off, right? I hope so. So 00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:43.680 everybody, there's nothing wrong with your podcast. 00:23:44.099 --> 00:23:47.619 This isn't a glitch. I am going to perform the 00:23:47.619 --> 00:24:01.099 next song for you now. That was Bloodhound Gang's 00:24:01.099 --> 00:24:04.839 The 10 Coolest Things About New Jersey, clocking 00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:08.019 in at 10 seconds long from 1999's Hooray for 00:24:08.019 --> 00:24:11.160 Boobies. I mean, coming out of my dog, I think 00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:14.099 10 seconds of silence is kind of fitting, actually. 00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:18.119 I mean, dear My Weekly Mixtape listeners, you 00:24:18.119 --> 00:24:20.799 have to understand, not only did Brian just perform 00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:26.180 that acapella, but you should have seen the instrumentation 00:24:26.180 --> 00:24:29.099 that he used in performing this song. It was 00:24:29.099 --> 00:24:32.319 majesty. There was every note that you could 00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:36.039 fit in 10 seconds of silence. Really, it was 00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:39.099 the greatest performance you will never hear. 00:24:39.579 --> 00:24:43.279 I am from New Jersey. And when I first got that 00:24:43.279 --> 00:24:48.380 CD back in the late 90s, I laughed so hard when 00:24:48.380 --> 00:24:50.500 that track came on because I expected it to be 00:24:50.500 --> 00:24:54.480 a goof song. And when it was pure silence, knowing 00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:57.000 the Bloodhound Gang is from that King of Prussia, 00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:02.460 Philly area, I laughed my ass off. And yeah, 00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:05.920 it's going to sound just as ridiculous on this 00:25:05.920 --> 00:25:07.740 playlist when people are listening to it after 00:25:07.740 --> 00:25:10.099 the show's done. This is where you get people 00:25:10.099 --> 00:25:12.099 like sitting there looking at their Discman, 00:25:12.200 --> 00:25:14.240 looking at their phone. What the hell is wrong? 00:25:14.380 --> 00:25:16.640 And certainly bashing it and checking their earphones 00:25:16.640 --> 00:25:19.079 and pulling the cord, putting it back in. You 00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:22.500 mentioned trolling early and a song like that, 00:25:22.500 --> 00:25:24.400 at least a track like that. I don't think we 00:25:24.400 --> 00:25:27.019 really called a song, but a track like that really 00:25:27.019 --> 00:25:30.079 does feel like one of those ultimate kind of 00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:33.079 music trolls. It's like the inside joke for a 00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:34.339 band kind of thing. It's like, oh, yeah, well, 00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:36.180 we'll call this right. And we'll put it on there. 00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:39.210 Ten seconds. Absolutely nothing. Go. You've inspired 00:25:39.210 --> 00:25:41.529 me now. Uh -oh. You want to talk about trolls, 00:25:41.630 --> 00:25:44.269 you want to talk about bad jokes here. Bad music 00:25:44.269 --> 00:25:46.630 jokes, anyways, but they're funny. So I'm going 00:25:46.630 --> 00:25:50.630 to go with 38 seconds. Let's see, I'm quickening 00:25:50.630 --> 00:25:53.589 up the pace here. I went too long at 51 seconds 00:25:53.589 --> 00:25:56.529 earlier, but 38 seconds. And I'm going to go 00:25:56.529 --> 00:26:01.410 with Typo Negative's Bad Ground off of the October 00:26:01.410 --> 00:26:05.890 Rust album. which is literally 38 seconds of 00:26:05.890 --> 00:26:09.369 a bad electrical ground hum, which anyone who 00:26:09.369 --> 00:26:11.470 has worked in audio or worked in electricity 00:26:11.470 --> 00:26:14.450 knows that hum. And this, okay, this is where 00:26:14.450 --> 00:26:16.769 I'm a geek. This is where I'm an absolute geek. 00:26:16.869 --> 00:26:20.869 So don't at me here, but I took the song and 00:26:20.869 --> 00:26:25.369 I put it into audition and I analyzed the frequency 00:26:25.369 --> 00:26:29.170 of the song. To make sure that it was around 00:26:29.170 --> 00:26:32.309 the 50 to 60 hertz mark, which is where a bad 00:26:32.309 --> 00:26:35.730 ground hum would sit. And sure enough, peaking 00:26:35.730 --> 00:26:39.269 right in that 50 to 60 hertz range. And I'm just 00:26:39.269 --> 00:26:42.490 like, OK, this is hilarious. It's funny. And 00:26:42.490 --> 00:26:44.690 I can't believe I just did that. And I have way 00:26:44.690 --> 00:26:48.210 too much time on my hands. It's typical typo 00:26:48.210 --> 00:26:50.089 negative fashion. I mean, this is a band that 00:26:50.089 --> 00:26:53.970 in 2007 on one of their last tours was known 00:26:53.970 --> 00:26:56.849 to play the chicken dance. before they came out 00:26:56.849 --> 00:27:00.769 on stage. To me, that is trolling your audience 00:27:00.769 --> 00:27:04.609 to do it at the beginning of one of their seminal 00:27:04.609 --> 00:27:07.730 albums. I mean, to me, it's a dead heat between 00:27:07.730 --> 00:27:10.809 Bloody Kisses and October Rust for which album 00:27:10.809 --> 00:27:13.609 I like more. If you ever do a There Can Only 00:27:13.609 --> 00:27:17.150 Be One episode on Type O negative, I would have 00:27:17.150 --> 00:27:20.329 such a hard time choosing between a song from 00:27:20.329 --> 00:27:22.289 one of those two albums. I'm already spoiling 00:27:22.289 --> 00:27:26.230 it, but there needs to be a Type O episode. well 00:27:26.230 --> 00:27:28.069 you know you may have just signed yourself up 00:27:28.069 --> 00:27:31.250 for a good time there so you know 2025 kind of 00:27:31.250 --> 00:27:33.109 feels around the corner so you know we'll go 00:27:33.109 --> 00:27:36.170 there we'll go down that road but yeah no like 00:27:36.170 --> 00:27:40.650 the fact that i actually work in audio and video 00:27:40.650 --> 00:27:43.609 and i hear this song and it's just like yeah 00:27:43.609 --> 00:27:47.230 you got me because you see typo negative because 00:27:47.230 --> 00:27:48.910 you know what you're getting with typo negative 00:27:48.910 --> 00:27:51.430 you see a song title called bad ground and you're 00:27:51.430 --> 00:27:54.250 like oh this is gonna be dark and heavy and it's 00:27:54.670 --> 00:27:57.509 38 seconds of ground hum. And I'm not going to 00:27:57.509 --> 00:28:00.430 lie. The first time I got this CD, I was sitting 00:28:00.430 --> 00:28:02.910 in my dorm room in North Carolina. Got it the 00:28:02.910 --> 00:28:06.549 day it came out. My buddy drove me over to the 00:28:06.549 --> 00:28:09.990 Blockbuster Music, which was a record shop down 00:28:09.990 --> 00:28:12.769 in North Carolina. And I picked up the CD and 00:28:12.769 --> 00:28:16.220 we put it in. And my buddy goes, something wrong 00:28:16.220 --> 00:28:19.160 with it? I'm like, I don't know. And it was like, 00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:22.319 they got us. They got us. Bravo. You start checking 00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:24.500 your speakers. You start checking your cables. 00:28:25.819 --> 00:28:28.579 Good one, guys. Good one. Well, coming out of 00:28:28.579 --> 00:28:32.200 that, to close out Side A, I'm finally going 00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:35.339 to sneak a cover song into the fold. And what 00:28:35.339 --> 00:28:38.519 better song to come out of Type O Negative's 00:28:38.519 --> 00:28:43.069 Bad Ground than the Blue Magoo's cover. Of the 00:28:43.069 --> 00:28:46.509 Looney Tunes closing theme. That's all folks. 00:28:46.789 --> 00:28:51.470 Eight seconds long from 1967's. Electric comic 00:28:51.470 --> 00:28:56.250 book. Complete. With the Porky Pig. That's all 00:28:56.250 --> 00:28:58.869 folks. But not actually Porky Pig. Just one of 00:28:58.869 --> 00:29:01.410 the guys in the band doing it. It's ridiculous. 00:29:01.910 --> 00:29:05.809 It's hysterical. And the fact that a band in 00:29:05.809 --> 00:29:08.589 the 1960's. Thought to put an eight second cover 00:29:08.589 --> 00:29:12.109 of a Looney Tunes theme. On their album. is freaking 00:29:12.109 --> 00:29:15.410 brilliant i wonder if they do that you have to 00:29:15.410 --> 00:29:18.049 think they close their shows with that like that 00:29:18.049 --> 00:29:20.630 would be the perfect way to close your show if 00:29:20.630 --> 00:29:22.869 you've got the instrumentation for that or open 00:29:22.869 --> 00:29:24.869 the show if you're typo negative they're very 00:29:24.869 --> 00:29:27.490 true very true it's like that's when you get 00:29:27.490 --> 00:29:29.009 up there you do your first song thank you good 00:29:29.009 --> 00:29:30.509 night and then you just start walk walk to the 00:29:30.509 --> 00:29:32.369 sides people are like what the hell no no you 00:29:32.369 --> 00:29:36.029 come back may have done that but still i love 00:29:36.029 --> 00:29:38.430 it and the funny thing too is that you see bands 00:29:38.430 --> 00:29:41.789 doing this more like taking just fun, goofy songs 00:29:41.789 --> 00:29:46.009 and doing it live. Like, look at Corey Taylor. 00:29:46.369 --> 00:29:50.009 We're talking singer of Slipknot. We're talking 00:29:50.009 --> 00:29:54.150 singer of Stone Sour. Badass MF right there. 00:29:54.549 --> 00:29:57.230 And he's doing the theme song from SpongeBob 00:29:57.230 --> 00:30:01.369 SquarePants live. And the crowd goes nuts. I 00:30:01.369 --> 00:30:03.970 showed my wife that video and she said, is he 00:30:03.970 --> 00:30:06.970 the actual singer? She actually looked it up 00:30:06.970 --> 00:30:10.049 on her phone.

You can put any. 00:32:25.019 --> 00:32:29.059 type of music after the 20th century fox fanfare 00:32:29.059 --> 00:32:32.559 and i guarantee you it will leave people blown 00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:36.200 away as wow that was a really awesome way to 00:32:36.200 --> 00:32:38.319 start off a mixtape so i'm hoping they think 00:32:38.319 --> 00:32:41.839 that as we kick off side b with it john williams 00:32:41.839 --> 00:32:46.079 20th century fox fanfare i love the pick i freaking 00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:49.559 love the pick i will admit that when i was looking 00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:54.599 for songs i could not find the opening sound 00:32:54.599 --> 00:32:57.619 i guess from the thx sound that you hear in the 00:32:57.619 --> 00:33:02.079 the theaters like although i did find an acapella 00:33:02.079 --> 00:33:04.019 version of that that was mixing with a couple 00:33:04.019 --> 00:33:07.980 of other things but i was also looking for dream 00:33:07.980 --> 00:33:12.200 theaters version of also sprock zarathustra which 00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:16.200 they did on the chaos in motion dvd but that 00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:19.460 cd does not have that track on it even though 00:33:19.460 --> 00:33:21.990 that version of it is like over three minutes 00:33:21.990 --> 00:33:23.569 long because it's got the intro on there as well. 00:33:23.609 --> 00:33:26.109 So it's too long for this. Three minutes is too 00:33:26.109 --> 00:33:29.329 long here. That's almost as long as side A. I 00:33:29.329 --> 00:33:34.329 know, right? Okay. So you went Star Wars. Okay. 00:33:34.769 --> 00:33:37.269 I'm going to apologize right now because you 00:33:37.269 --> 00:33:43.069 went Star Wars. You went Star Wars. All the wars 00:33:43.069 --> 00:33:48.190 and all the stars. Star Wars, nothing but Star 00:33:48.190 --> 00:33:54.250 Wars. Okay, I'm going to geek out here. So bear 00:33:54.250 --> 00:33:56.990 with me here, because I actually have a way to 00:33:56.990 --> 00:34:00.829 go from this song to my pick. And it's going 00:34:00.829 --> 00:34:03.470 to take a bit of a roundabout here. So going 00:34:03.470 --> 00:34:07.309 off of John Williams' composition of the Fox 00:34:07.309 --> 00:34:11.530 fanfare for Star Wars, you remember the Knights 00:34:11.530 --> 00:34:14.809 of the Old Republic video game? Yes. When they 00:34:14.809 --> 00:34:16.769 were promoting that game, they took out a full 00:34:16.769 --> 00:34:20.050 page ad that looked like a comic strip. Now, 00:34:20.090 --> 00:34:22.070 it's not canon. It was basically an ad, right? 00:34:22.150 --> 00:34:24.449 But it made it look like it was from part of 00:34:24.449 --> 00:34:27.590 the comics. And in this comic strip, there was 00:34:27.590 --> 00:34:30.869 a character that only ever appeared in this ad. 00:34:31.809 --> 00:34:35.289 And he had the power to control the combatants 00:34:35.289 --> 00:34:37.250 in the battle that was happening on this comic 00:34:37.250 --> 00:34:43.519 strip. That character's name is Todd. So I'm 00:34:43.519 --> 00:34:47.340 going to go with Todd from Corky and the Juice 00:34:47.340 --> 00:34:51.579 Pigs clocking in at 13 seconds long. I got from 00:34:51.579 --> 00:34:54.880 Star Wars to a 13 second song from a Canadian 00:34:54.880 --> 00:34:59.320 comedy troupe, Todd, which is the only lyric. 00:34:59.340 --> 00:35:04.420 It's Todd. Corky and the Juice Pigs were one 00:35:04.420 --> 00:35:06.780 of those kind of of the moment Canadian comedy 00:35:06.780 --> 00:35:09.480 musical groups, kind of up there with the arrogant 00:35:09.480 --> 00:35:13.449 worms. Sean Cullen. was a member of Corky and 00:35:13.449 --> 00:35:15.130 the Juice Pigs. And he's actually gone on to 00:35:15.130 --> 00:35:18.289 have a decent acting career. He's been in such 00:35:18.289 --> 00:35:20.889 wonderful productions as The Love Guru and Phil 00:35:20.889 --> 00:35:23.849 the Alien. Yeah, The Love Guru. I went there. 00:35:24.010 --> 00:35:28.429 But he's also been in episodes of Murdoch Mysteries. 00:35:28.489 --> 00:35:31.389 He's just one of those consummate working Canadian 00:35:31.389 --> 00:35:34.590 performers. Corky and the Juice Pigs, that first 00:35:34.590 --> 00:35:37.409 album is fantastic. There's even a comedic take 00:35:37.409 --> 00:35:40.050 of a Suzanne Vega song on there, or at least 00:35:40.050 --> 00:35:41.809 what a Suzanne Vega song would sound like if 00:35:41.809 --> 00:35:44.190 a bunch of Canadians got into a studio and made 00:35:44.190 --> 00:35:46.489 one up themselves. Kind of like if AI wrote a 00:35:46.489 --> 00:35:48.429 Suzanne Vega song. That's kind of what it sounds 00:35:48.429 --> 00:35:53.869 like. But yeah, Todd, 13 seconds long out of 00:35:53.869 --> 00:35:56.230 Star Wars. Thanks to Knights of the Old Republic. 00:35:56.449 --> 00:35:59.849 I am such a geek. I only know one Todd, and it 00:35:59.849 --> 00:36:02.340 was somebody I went to grammar school with. I 00:36:02.340 --> 00:36:04.739 have not met a Todd since, do you know any Todd's 00:36:04.739 --> 00:36:06.719 besides the comic strip one you were referring 00:36:06.719 --> 00:36:10.179 to? I do know a Todd or two. And the funny thing 00:36:10.179 --> 00:36:13.000 is like I was looking for, like when I was putting 00:36:13.000 --> 00:36:15.860 my bank of songs together, I was looking for 00:36:15.860 --> 00:36:18.019 songs from like Canadian groups. So, you know, 00:36:18.019 --> 00:36:20.800 kids in the hall doing the Dave's I know. And 00:36:20.800 --> 00:36:22.480 this one was definitely up there. Cause I listened 00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:24.559 to that first Corky and the juice at pigs album 00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:27.719 a lot. Todd is just way too much fun. The song. 00:36:28.619 --> 00:36:32.619 All right. Well, You went with Corky and the 00:36:32.619 --> 00:36:36.539 Juice Pigs. So I'm going to go with a blank and 00:36:36.539 --> 00:36:39.400 the blank as well. I have really nothing I could 00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:43.199 tie to Todd except for this. So I'll go with 00:36:43.199 --> 00:36:46.840 Duncan Reed and the Big Heads, the shortest song 00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:50.380 in the world. Clocking in at two seconds from 00:36:50.380 --> 00:36:55.260 2017's Bombs Away. Here are the lyrics. One, 00:36:55.360 --> 00:36:58.130 two, three, four, stop. I mean, the song literally 00:36:58.130 --> 00:37:00.750 is two seconds long. I'm guessing it'll probably 00:37:00.750 --> 00:37:04.010 be the shortest song of the evening, but I got 00:37:04.010 --> 00:37:06.650 to give major props to the fact that they actually 00:37:06.650 --> 00:37:10.230 did the four count into the track. Frigging brilliant. 00:37:10.309 --> 00:37:17.030 Bravo. Bravo. I dare you. The next time Colbert 00:37:17.030 --> 00:37:19.869 and company performs a show, this has to be in 00:37:19.869 --> 00:37:22.349 your set list. I mean, really, all it is is one 00:37:22.349 --> 00:37:24.349 note saying stop. I mean, I think we could pull 00:37:24.349 --> 00:37:26.289 it off. I don't know if we could pull it off. 00:37:26.349 --> 00:37:29.369 We'd probably all play different notes. Are you 00:37:29.369 --> 00:37:31.230 going to play it in G major? Are you going to 00:37:31.230 --> 00:37:36.250 play it in the proper D minor? Well, I think 00:37:36.250 --> 00:37:38.409 I've given you an interesting slate to try to 00:37:38.409 --> 00:37:40.469 come out of that. So what are you going to come 00:37:40.469 --> 00:37:43.650 out of? Literally, the song title is longer than 00:37:43.650 --> 00:37:46.809 the actual song. The shortest song in the world. 00:37:47.090 --> 00:37:49.670 That took me longer than the actual song to say. 00:37:50.030 --> 00:37:51.730 I feel like I kind of have to stick to the four 00:37:51.730 --> 00:37:55.829 count now just to fit into the next song. Okay. 00:37:56.369 --> 00:37:59.949 There was a compilation CD that came out around 00:37:59.949 --> 00:38:02.809 like the mid to late 90s. I think it was called 00:38:02.809 --> 00:38:08.869 Short Music for Short People. Ah, yes. And this 00:38:08.869 --> 00:38:11.469 song is the lead off track off of that compilation 00:38:11.469 --> 00:38:15.769 album clocking in at a staggeringly long nine 00:38:15.769 --> 00:38:19.559 seconds long. The Fizzy Bangers with a song called 00:38:19.559 --> 00:38:22.780 Short Attention Span. So it kind of fits in with 00:38:22.780 --> 00:38:26.719 that as well. Like very quick, very fast. They 00:38:26.719 --> 00:38:29.179 have a short attention span. Nine seconds feels 00:38:29.179 --> 00:38:31.000 like an eternity compared to your two seconds, 00:38:31.019 --> 00:38:34.480 though. Oh, my God. I am so mad that you pulled 00:38:34.480 --> 00:38:38.340 this one. I had about seven or eight songs sitting 00:38:38.340 --> 00:38:40.699 from, you know what? Screw it. I'm sticking with 00:38:40.699 --> 00:38:45.329 the album because it's a compilation. And there 00:38:45.329 --> 00:38:47.389 are different bands on there. I could easily 00:38:47.389 --> 00:38:50.170 go with Green Day, The Ballad of Wilhelm Fink. 00:38:50.210 --> 00:38:53.769 I could go with Guar's Fish F. I could go with 00:38:53.769 --> 00:38:57.630 Nerf Herders Doing Laundry. But I think I'm going 00:38:57.630 --> 00:39:03.030 to go with the Atari's 28 Seconds of Amazingness, 00:39:03.130 --> 00:39:07.969 The Radio Still Sucks. This song rocks so hard. 00:39:08.050 --> 00:39:10.530 I have it on several of my punk playlists. And 00:39:10.530 --> 00:39:13.900 I kid you not, every time I hear it, I always 00:39:13.900 --> 00:39:16.320 have to go back and play it a second time because 00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:19.460 I always wished they did a longer version of 00:39:19.460 --> 00:39:22.119 it. The song just kicks ass. It's a fantastic 00:39:22.119 --> 00:39:26.639 punk song and there deserves to be a longer version, 00:39:26.739 --> 00:39:29.960 but alas, there isn't. And I want to just say 00:39:29.960 --> 00:39:32.980 how awesome short music for short people is. 00:39:33.079 --> 00:39:35.139 If you're on a road trip and you want to like 00:39:35.139 --> 00:39:40.059 have a musical ADD moment for over an hour, there's 00:39:40.059 --> 00:39:44.449 over a hundred songs on it. 15 to 20 seconds 00:39:44.449 --> 00:39:46.570 it's something different and there are so many 00:39:46.570 --> 00:39:51.150 interesting and funny and goofy songs on it it's 00:39:51.150 --> 00:39:53.570 an all -timer compilation and when you think 00:39:53.570 --> 00:39:55.389 too like this came out around the time where 00:39:55.389 --> 00:39:58.329 punk compilations were really at their peak you 00:39:58.329 --> 00:40:00.949 had the fat music for fat people compilations 00:40:00.949 --> 00:40:05.739 you had the fat records compilations like i Got 00:40:05.739 --> 00:40:09.280 to discover so many punk bands from all of those 00:40:09.280 --> 00:40:11.380 compilations. I think I got like punk chart busters 00:40:11.380 --> 00:40:14.519 as well, which is a two disc set of just all 00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:16.780 punk covers. Of course, you've also got like 00:40:16.780 --> 00:40:19.500 the punk goes pop series, the punk goes whatever 00:40:19.500 --> 00:40:23.280 series. Really, the compilation CDs introduced 00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:26.340 you to so many different bands and short music 00:40:26.340 --> 00:40:28.929 for short people introduce you to. basically 00:40:28.929 --> 00:40:31.190 all of them it felt like like literally it felt 00:40:31.190 --> 00:40:32.829 like every band that was ever on any of those 00:40:32.829 --> 00:40:35.070 compilations they all got to fit on this one 00:40:35.070 --> 00:40:38.469 cd it's the sampler to end all samplers i feel 00:40:38.469 --> 00:40:43.289 i'm i'm gonna lean on you here i'm gonna cater 00:40:43.289 --> 00:40:46.349 to your interests okay i'm gonna go with a cover 00:40:46.349 --> 00:40:50.989 song you have my attention now thematically we're 00:40:50.989 --> 00:40:53.329 taking a left turn at albuquerque because we're 00:40:53.329 --> 00:40:55.010 stepping away from the punk but we are going 00:40:55.010 --> 00:40:57.650 to keep up the tempo here But I'm going to go 00:40:57.650 --> 00:41:01.449 with a cover song. But the original of this song 00:41:01.449 --> 00:41:06.809 lasts three minutes and two seconds. So that's 00:41:06.809 --> 00:41:10.869 too long for us. So when you triple the tempo, 00:41:10.909 --> 00:41:13.869 as Richard Cheese in Lounge Against the Machine 00:41:13.869 --> 00:41:19.989 did, when they covered Milkshake by Kellis, clocking 00:41:19.989 --> 00:41:26.059 in at 49 seconds, they covered... milkshake in 00:41:26.059 --> 00:41:29.360 49 seconds the original song is three minutes 00:41:29.360 --> 00:41:32.960 and two i looked at every single richard cheese 00:41:32.960 --> 00:41:35.079 album looking for something that would work because 00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:38.019 i freaking love richard cheese and lounge against 00:41:38.019 --> 00:41:40.679 the machine i was hoping uh doomy was going to 00:41:40.679 --> 00:41:43.920 be short enough to fit in but they carried the 00:41:43.920 --> 00:41:45.940 joke a little too long and it lasted over a minute 00:41:45.940 --> 00:41:49.099 so that's too long for us because the fact that 00:41:49.099 --> 00:41:51.960 instead of singing doomy he's saying dome which 00:41:51.960 --> 00:41:53.960 is hilarious. You can dome in the morning. You 00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:55.519 can dome in the night. You can dome when you 00:41:55.519 --> 00:41:59.559 want to dome. No, no, it's do me, not dome, do 00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:02.139 me. And that's about the tempo that they did 00:42:02.139 --> 00:42:03.960 Milkshake, probably even a little bit faster. 00:42:04.219 --> 00:42:09.300 But if you like comedy lounge music, no one does 00:42:09.300 --> 00:42:12.539 it better than Richard Cheese. Not even that 00:42:12.539 --> 00:42:16.800 Pat Boone lounge cover, whatever. No one who's 00:42:16.800 --> 00:42:19.639 done a lounge album, lounge covers album has 00:42:19.639 --> 00:42:22.519 done it better than Richard Cheese. I swear to 00:42:22.519 --> 00:42:25.199 you, the first time I heard Richard Cheese and 00:42:25.199 --> 00:42:26.619 the Lounge Against the Machine, I thought it 00:42:26.619 --> 00:42:29.000 was a Casio keyboard in the background with like 00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:31.860 one of the songs that you just push the button 00:42:31.860 --> 00:42:33.880 and you get that drum beat that almost sounds, 00:42:34.039 --> 00:42:36.780 you know, the Casio keyboard drum sound I'm talking 00:42:36.780 --> 00:42:40.059 about. And that first album with Break Stuff 00:42:40.059 --> 00:42:45.510 and Last Resort, hysterically funny. I love the 00:42:45.510 --> 00:42:48.590 fact that he's in this mix because I know several 00:42:48.590 --> 00:42:51.289 people that have actually gone to see them perform 00:42:51.289 --> 00:42:54.469 live and have said brilliant things about, I've 00:42:54.469 --> 00:42:57.429 never seen him. He's on my bucket list, but I'm 00:42:57.429 --> 00:42:59.489 going to stick with the kind of comedic aspect 00:42:59.489 --> 00:43:02.989 side of what you're going for here with an artist. 00:43:03.050 --> 00:43:06.030 I am going to go see in 2025 because I grabbed 00:43:06.030 --> 00:43:09.170 tickets and that would be weird. Al Yankovic. 00:43:09.170 --> 00:43:12.659 Now I could have easily went. With Harvey the 00:43:12.659 --> 00:43:15.300 Wonder Hamster like Patreon mixtaper Philip Bergman 00:43:15.300 --> 00:43:20.159 chimed in with. But that is 21 seconds long. 00:43:20.500 --> 00:43:24.659 And I want to save four seconds. So I am going 00:43:24.659 --> 00:43:29.480 to go off of 1989's UHF original motion picture 00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:33.500 soundtrack and other stuff. Let me be your hog. 00:43:33.980 --> 00:43:37.630 Clocking in at 17 seconds. During the movie, 00:43:37.690 --> 00:43:40.230 this is the song that's played when Uncle Harvey's 00:43:40.230 --> 00:43:42.929 lounging in the pool right before he gets the 00:43:42.929 --> 00:43:45.690 phone call from Big Louie. And you know what? 00:43:45.730 --> 00:43:47.650 Considering some of the punk stuff we had on 00:43:47.650 --> 00:43:50.530 this side, it actually fits in that regard, too. 00:43:51.190 --> 00:43:54.809 Oh, my God. Weird Al Yankovic. Is he in the Rock 00:43:54.809 --> 00:43:56.010 and Roll Hall of Fame yet? Because he should 00:43:56.010 --> 00:43:59.889 be. Sadly, he's not. UHF is one of those rare 00:43:59.889 --> 00:44:04.539 films that. somehow worked like and it's only 00:44:04.539 --> 00:44:07.059 on the strength of weird al yankovic yes the 00:44:07.059 --> 00:44:08.739 you know the other performances in there are 00:44:08.739 --> 00:44:11.559 good too but really he took his entire persona 00:44:11.559 --> 00:44:13.880 and turned it into a movie and it worked even 00:44:13.880 --> 00:44:18.460 with the recent documentary so quote -unquote 00:44:18.460 --> 00:44:21.139 documentary that was done on roku starring daniel 00:44:21.139 --> 00:44:24.800 radcliffe as weird al yankovic it's hilarious 00:44:24.800 --> 00:44:26.960 because it is exactly what you expect it's basically 00:44:26.960 --> 00:44:30.260 a parody of a documentary and by the way i looked 00:44:30.260 --> 00:44:35.019 it up UHF does not qualify for it's not that 00:44:35.019 --> 00:44:39.980 bad, thankfully, but it's close. It only has 00:44:39.980 --> 00:44:45.639 a 63 % critic score on Rotten Tomatoes. So that 00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:49.460 feels that feels disgustingly low. Hold on a 00:44:49.460 --> 00:44:52.079 minute. I'm logging in now to give it a bad rating 00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:55.059 just so we could talk about it. Are you going 00:44:55.059 --> 00:44:56.900 to bomb it just so we can do an episode on that? 00:44:57.139 --> 00:44:59.639 I mean, you got to knock it down to lift it back 00:44:59.639 --> 00:45:01.699 up, right? OK, well, while you're at it, make 00:45:01.699 --> 00:45:03.159 sure you get Transformers the movie, because 00:45:03.159 --> 00:45:05.500 I think that's sitting at only 60 percent. So 00:45:05.500 --> 00:45:07.820 help me out here, because I just want to talk 00:45:07.820 --> 00:45:13.360 about Transformers the movie. OK. I need to explain 00:45:13.360 --> 00:45:17.980 this pick. Oh, no. Because you're going to hear 00:45:17.980 --> 00:45:20.059 the title and you're going to sit there and go, 00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:25.619 how the heck did you know that this song existed? 00:45:25.800 --> 00:45:28.440 So whenever I'm preparing for my weekly mixtape, 00:45:28.539 --> 00:45:31.239 I. do my best and put together a bank of songs 00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:34.719 that I know will fit into the category. And then 00:45:34.719 --> 00:45:37.119 you kind of play it out like a deck of cards, 00:45:37.159 --> 00:45:41.400 if you will. And in my search, I was trying to 00:45:41.400 --> 00:45:44.940 find a song from another Canadian comedy troupe 00:45:44.940 --> 00:45:48.739 called Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie. Yes, that's 00:45:48.739 --> 00:45:50.420 the name of the comedy troupe, Three Dead Trolls 00:45:50.420 --> 00:45:52.619 in a Baggie. They're based out of Alberta. They 00:45:52.619 --> 00:45:57.489 only have one song on Spotify. Only one. And 00:45:57.489 --> 00:45:59.409 it's something called the System Administrator 00:45:59.409 --> 00:46:02.250 Song. And it's on a compilation album called 00:46:02.250 --> 00:46:06.550 Technobabble. So what this CD is, it's a compilation 00:46:06.550 --> 00:46:10.489 of songs that are about tech -based things. So 00:46:10.489 --> 00:46:12.789 Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie doing the System 00:46:12.789 --> 00:46:15.489 Administrator Song works perfectly for the CD. 00:46:16.449 --> 00:46:18.710 Unfortunately, that song is too long. And there 00:46:18.710 --> 00:46:20.469 were no other Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie songs. 00:46:20.630 --> 00:46:25.630 So I did the next best thing. I took a song. 00:46:26.139 --> 00:46:29.519 off of this cd and it's also pretty damn catchy 00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:35.320 but when i say i'm putting calculator in my bum 00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:40.179 i can't believe i'm actually saying these things 00:46:40.179 --> 00:46:46.199 this is a song by a group called worm quartet 00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:50.960 calculator in my bum at 18 seconds long oh dear 00:46:50.960 --> 00:46:53.340 god what have i done here that's it folks thank 00:46:53.340 --> 00:46:55.820 you for tuning into my weekly mixtape there's 00:46:55.820 --> 00:46:59.559 no going back from here right but here's the 00:46:59.559 --> 00:47:03.099 thing they have enough albums for there can only 00:47:03.099 --> 00:47:07.219 be one episode they have albums like faster than 00:47:07.219 --> 00:47:11.760 a speeding mullet carpe tedium so just you know 00:47:11.760 --> 00:47:13.719 how they say never judge a book by its cover 00:47:14.380 --> 00:47:17.699 I'm going to judge an artist by their album titles. 00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:20.840 And I'm actually all in on this. And the stupid 00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:24.920 thing is that calculator in my bum is a catchy 00:47:24.920 --> 00:47:28.780 song and it will get stuck in your head. Not 00:47:28.780 --> 00:47:30.500 in your ass, but it will get stuck in your head. 00:47:34.730 --> 00:47:37.769 oh well there goes the pg rating for this show 00:47:37.769 --> 00:47:43.030 oh and jason was never asked back again you made 00:47:43.030 --> 00:47:46.250 it to 99 episodes you got your board shorts and 00:47:46.250 --> 00:47:49.150 this is how you repay me with a calculator at 00:47:49.150 --> 00:47:55.650 my mom yes well i don't even what am i supposed 00:47:55.650 --> 00:47:59.309 to say to that and i mean i'm not even saying 00:47:59.309 --> 00:48:01.210 the name now because i have to say it later so 00:48:01.210 --> 00:48:06.110 coming out of that What better place to go than 00:48:06.110 --> 00:48:10.190 1969's Abbey Road and the Beatles' Her Majesty? 00:48:11.190 --> 00:48:14.670 Because we are going to go from Worm Quartet 00:48:14.670 --> 00:48:17.090 to the Beatles and somehow it's going to make 00:48:17.090 --> 00:48:20.469 sense. The Beatles are a quartet. Well, there 00:48:20.469 --> 00:48:25.230 you have it. Touche, I guess. But 26 seconds 00:48:25.230 --> 00:48:27.769 considered by many to be the first quote unquote 00:48:27.769 --> 00:48:31.539 hidden track on an album. I mean. At this point, 00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:37.639 why not? I'm out. I've broken Brian with a calculator. 00:48:37.980 --> 00:48:40.059 This is why we say I didn't think there was going 00:48:40.059 --> 00:48:42.519 to be math on the test today, because, yeah. 00:48:42.659 --> 00:48:45.239 No, I mean, the fact that the Beatles actually 00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:47.460 have a song that could fit on this mixtape, that's 00:48:47.460 --> 00:48:50.619 fantastic. I didn't even know this track existed. 00:48:50.940 --> 00:48:52.960 Well, I guess there's two similarities between 00:48:52.960 --> 00:48:55.360 the Beatles and Worm Quartet then. Actually, 00:48:55.380 --> 00:48:56.960 thank you for bringing that to my attention, 00:48:57.059 --> 00:48:58.619 because now I have to go and find that song. 00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:04.099 How do I wrap this up? Because I don't know where 00:49:04.099 --> 00:49:06.739 to go from Calculator. I don't know. I had to 00:49:06.739 --> 00:49:10.019 balance the seesaw there a little bit. And I 00:49:10.019 --> 00:49:11.920 think the only way coming back from Calculator 00:49:11.920 --> 00:49:16.599 was the Beatles. Right. Okay. In that case, then, 00:49:16.639 --> 00:49:20.579 I'm going to go with a sentimental pick. And 00:49:20.579 --> 00:49:25.420 I'm going to go with the song that brought my 00:49:25.420 --> 00:49:31.559 wife and I together. A really... Sweet short 00:49:31.559 --> 00:49:34.420 song. Please tell me it's not by Worm Quartet. 00:49:34.619 --> 00:49:38.239 It's not by Worm Quartet. If Calculator My Bum 00:49:38.239 --> 00:49:39.719 was the song they brought my wife and I together. 00:49:40.059 --> 00:49:45.360 No, no, no, no, no, no. A nice quiet song at 00:49:45.360 --> 00:49:50.199 46 seconds long. by anthrax cup of joe off of 00:49:50.199 --> 00:49:54.340 the volume eight the threat is real so let me 00:49:54.340 --> 00:49:57.099 explain because to sit there and say a 46 second 00:49:57.099 --> 00:49:59.219 anthrax song was the song that brought my wife 00:49:59.219 --> 00:50:01.519 and i together let me tell the story if i may 00:50:01.519 --> 00:50:04.320 to your listeners so we were in broadcasting 00:50:04.320 --> 00:50:06.199 college together and i was trying to teach myself 00:50:06.199 --> 00:50:10.539 how to use the avid video editing system that 00:50:10.539 --> 00:50:12.760 was there so the way i was teaching myself was 00:50:12.760 --> 00:50:14.940 i would just take a song toss it in and try to 00:50:15.420 --> 00:50:18.699 work on putting visuals over top of it. So at 00:50:18.699 --> 00:50:20.900 46 seconds, it's a short song. It's easy to put 00:50:20.900 --> 00:50:23.840 in because this is back then. And it took a while 00:50:23.840 --> 00:50:27.079 to ingest all the footage into the system. So 00:50:27.079 --> 00:50:29.699 I start working away and teaching myself and 00:50:29.699 --> 00:50:32.099 she sticks her head in the door and she's like, 00:50:32.179 --> 00:50:35.159 is that anthrax? Now, Cup of Joe is not exactly 00:50:35.159 --> 00:50:38.119 the most well -known anthrax song. So I turn 00:50:38.119 --> 00:50:40.900 around, look at her and go, you like anthrax? 00:50:41.440 --> 00:50:44.000 Fuck, marry me. Those were the exact words out 00:50:44.000 --> 00:50:48.659 of my mouth. And two years later, called my shot. 00:50:48.719 --> 00:50:51.860 We're married. Still married to this day. All 00:50:51.860 --> 00:50:56.039 thanks to Anthrax's Cup of Joe clocking in at 00:50:56.039 --> 00:50:59.920 46 seconds, apparently of destiny. Well, thank 00:50:59.920 --> 00:51:02.420 you for bringing us back down to Earth after 00:51:02.420 --> 00:51:05.820 Calculator. And that is a really awesome story. 00:51:05.880 --> 00:51:07.920 I remember you talking about that on the Anthrax 00:51:07.920 --> 00:51:12.599 episode of Playlist Wars. But it's kind of full 00:51:12.599 --> 00:51:14.760 circle because the second song of the night was 00:51:14.760 --> 00:51:17.900 Stormtroopers of Death. And Cup of Joe is kind 00:51:17.900 --> 00:51:22.599 of the most S .O .D. song on an Anthrax album 00:51:22.599 --> 00:51:25.739 that wasn't an S .O .D. cover on the Attack of 00:51:25.739 --> 00:51:28.639 the Killer Bees album. And it would have fit 00:51:28.639 --> 00:51:30.880 perfectly in the S .O .D. catalog as well. And, 00:51:30.880 --> 00:51:34.199 you know, John Bush's growl on it. I mean, it's 00:51:34.199 --> 00:51:36.179 a song about needing a cup of coffee. So, of 00:51:36.179 --> 00:51:38.460 course, I'm going to listen to the song. But 00:51:38.460 --> 00:51:42.039 John Bush. added so much to it. I don't know 00:51:42.039 --> 00:51:43.820 if I could hear Joey Belladonna doing this song. 00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:48.000 This is definitely a Bush era classic -ish, but 00:51:48.000 --> 00:51:50.940 classic to me. Couldn't agree more. And you know 00:51:50.940 --> 00:51:53.539 what? For when we do the ultimate coffee playlist, 00:51:53.940 --> 00:51:56.559 we've got that. And like we mentioned at the 00:51:56.559 --> 00:51:59.159 first song of the night, Descendants Coffee Mug, 00:51:59.199 --> 00:52:01.719 even though that wasn't the choice, we definitely 00:52:01.719 --> 00:52:04.820 have the start of another episode to put a pin 00:52:04.820 --> 00:52:08.010 in for a future. Post 100 episodes, if people 00:52:08.010 --> 00:52:11.650 actually continue listening after this one. But 00:52:11.650 --> 00:52:14.809 there you have it, folks. Side B of the ultimate 00:52:14.809 --> 00:52:18.110 short songs mixtape, which consists of John Williams, 00:52:18.289 --> 00:52:21.750 20th Century Fox fanfare.
