When it's like, oh, where, oh, where 00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:23.219 can my baby be? What song is that? Oh, that was 00:02:23.219 --> 00:02:26.300 Pearl Jam's Last Kiss cover. Yes, it was Pearl 00:02:26.300 --> 00:02:28.919 Jam. And that song wasn't released out to the 00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:30.860 public. You had to only listen to it on the radio. 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:32.900 So I remember recording that song and I was like, 00:02:32.939 --> 00:02:35.419 I was so pumped to get it like perfectly. But 00:02:35.419 --> 00:02:37.719 yeah, mixtape is just like, it was the shuffle 00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:40.539 before the shuffle and it was perfect. And then 00:02:40.539 --> 00:02:43.349 it came over to CDs and I feel like. every girl 00:02:43.349 --> 00:02:45.050 would have like a mixtape and they would have 00:02:45.050 --> 00:02:47.090 like, it would be drawn so perfectly of what 00:02:47.090 --> 00:02:49.669 each like track would be. And like every CD had 00:02:49.669 --> 00:02:52.449 matchbox 20 on it for some reason. You know what 00:02:52.449 --> 00:02:55.009 I'm talking about? Every girl's mixtape had matchbox 00:02:55.009 --> 00:02:58.610 20. But yeah, man, it's just, it's just like 00:02:58.610 --> 00:03:01.409 a throwback. And with your podcast, it's bringing 00:03:01.409 --> 00:03:03.330 it back. It's like, I feel like I have a ghetto 00:03:03.330 --> 00:03:05.370 blaster with me right now, like ready to pop 00:03:05.370 --> 00:03:07.310 something in and get this thing going. But yeah, 00:03:07.469 --> 00:03:09.969 mixtapes were a big part of my life growing up 00:03:09.969 --> 00:03:11.870 and I love music and I would always make some 00:03:11.870 --> 00:03:14.990 tapes and CDs. Well, tonight we're going to use 00:03:14.990 --> 00:03:18.219 that approach. to making a playlist because you 00:03:18.219 --> 00:03:20.500 have to acknowledge the modernization of what 00:03:20.500 --> 00:03:22.840 has happened in music. So I'm not oblivious to 00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:25.680 it, but there was an approach you took to making 00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:28.520 a mixtape back in the day that I'm trying to 00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:31.000 apply to playlist curation. And that's what we're 00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:33.979 going to do tonight. And tonight we're curating 00:03:33.979 --> 00:03:37.830 a mixtape. of pump up and workout songs. We're 00:03:37.830 --> 00:03:41.430 talking high energy, maximum overdrive, double 00:03:41.430 --> 00:03:46.030 live gonzo, intensity intensities, live at Budokan 00:03:46.030 --> 00:03:48.629 levels of adrenaline. I hope some people got 00:03:48.629 --> 00:03:51.509 that reference. For me, this is keeping the list 00:03:51.509 --> 00:03:55.650 to three main genres, metal, punk, and hip hop. 00:03:55.789 --> 00:03:59.330 As my workout mix has been crafted since as long 00:03:59.330 --> 00:04:03.250 as I started crafting mixes to work out to. Going 00:04:03.250 --> 00:04:06.599 back. to when I was in high school. So Tim, what 00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:09.020 were you looking for in the songs that you brought 00:04:09.020 --> 00:04:12.020 to the table this evening? The songs I was looking 00:04:12.020 --> 00:04:14.060 for were songs that just give you the goosebumps 00:04:14.060 --> 00:04:16.839 and that songs that you can like run through 00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.509 a brick wall through. Those are the type of songs 00:04:19.509 --> 00:04:21.829 I was looking for. Like ones that like in my 00:04:21.829 --> 00:04:24.329 podcast, I always ask what people, personal theme 00:04:24.329 --> 00:04:26.910 songs would be. And like you come out and like, 00:04:26.930 --> 00:04:28.769 like I'll be on the treadmill walking and I feel 00:04:28.769 --> 00:04:30.750 like I'm walking to an arena sometimes. And it's 00:04:30.750 --> 00:04:32.209 like those songs that you like pat your chest 00:04:32.209 --> 00:04:34.529 to, or like you just give that extra flex. Like 00:04:34.529 --> 00:04:37.740 it's those types of songs I was going for. All 00:04:37.740 --> 00:04:40.579 right, let's get down to business. Tonight, as 00:04:40.579 --> 00:04:42.620 I mentioned earlier, Tim and I will be curating 00:04:42.620 --> 00:04:44.779 a pump -up workout mixtape, and we're going to 00:04:44.779 --> 00:04:47.420 use the old cassette deck approach, meaning our 00:04:47.420 --> 00:04:50.019 mixtape will be broken up into two sides, side 00:04:50.019 --> 00:04:53.680 A and side B. Tim, as my special guest, will 00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:56.439 begin side A with his first song choice, and 00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:58.839 then I'll add a song that I feel best follows 00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:01.399 up his choice. We'll then flip -flop choosing 00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.560 songs until we've mapped out 10 songs for side 00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:07.209 A. We'll then give that mixtape a proverbial 00:05:07.209 --> 00:05:09.790 flip and we'll map outside. Be only this time. 00:05:09.889 --> 00:05:13.329 I kick things off with Tim choosing second. Our 00:05:13.329 --> 00:05:16.410 overall goal for this episode is to craft the 00:05:16.410 --> 00:05:20.170 best pump up workout mixtape possible through 00:05:20.170 --> 00:05:23.509 only 20 songs.

I don't know 00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:47.000 about you, man. Yeah. I'm always down for those 00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:49.180 certain covers from like different genres. I 00:07:49.180 --> 00:07:51.139 always think they, they, sometimes they hit. 00:07:51.220 --> 00:07:53.480 It disturbed. I don't know. I can picture a heavy. 00:07:53.620 --> 00:07:58.540 Do you believe in life? I can't do it. Yeah. 00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:02.139 I'm feeling that. I don't know. All right. And 00:08:02.139 --> 00:08:04.259 finally, Tim, you had some chime ins on your 00:08:04.259 --> 00:08:06.740 channel. And while I don't know who wrote him 00:08:06.740 --> 00:08:09.379 with these, we had little Uzi Vertz. I want to 00:08:09.379 --> 00:08:12.589 rock under oats. Who Will Guard the Guardians, 00:08:12.790 --> 00:08:16.370 and Disturbs the Game. So now, right there alone, 00:08:16.610 --> 00:08:20.069 we've got a pretty large batch of songs to consider. 00:08:20.689 --> 00:08:23.350 So Tim, I'm going to officially press the record 00:08:23.350 --> 00:08:26.629 button on this mixtape. What song are you kicking 00:08:26.629 --> 00:08:30.250 off the night with as we lean into Side A? Man, 00:08:30.269 --> 00:08:33.730 this was so tough to think of the first song 00:08:33.730 --> 00:08:35.629 to kick this off. And I had so many different 00:08:35.629 --> 00:08:37.889 ideas that I definitely want to say at the end 00:08:37.889 --> 00:08:41.500 of this, just in case that you have them. When 00:08:41.500 --> 00:08:43.820 I think of like an intro, it has to build up 00:08:43.820 --> 00:08:46.120 a little bit. You can't just crank it right away. 00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:48.320 And I want to, I want to like people to get into 00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:50.539 this album, this mixtape that we're doing. So 00:08:50.539 --> 00:08:52.740 when you think of like a bad -ass song, like 00:08:52.740 --> 00:08:54.500 you think of the baddest man on the planet and 00:08:54.500 --> 00:08:57.200 you think Mike Tyson and Mike Tyson came out 00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:59.419 to this song and it's not, it doesn't even have 00:08:59.419 --> 00:09:02.039 a title. It's just intro. It's the DMX intro 00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:04.820 from a it's dark and hell is hot. It's like doom, 00:09:04.899 --> 00:09:07.799 doom, doom, doom, doom, doom. That's going to 00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:09.840 be the first song on this mixtape, the intro 00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:13.509 to that. that album. Ooh, that's an interesting 00:09:13.509 --> 00:09:15.669 way to go. Cause I could go at any direction 00:09:15.669 --> 00:09:18.789 with that. Yes. Yes. Cause it's one of those 00:09:18.789 --> 00:09:20.610 ones that builds up and you just like the hair 00:09:20.610 --> 00:09:22.929 stands up on your arms. And like, when you watch 00:09:22.929 --> 00:09:25.370 that Mike Tyson intro, when he comes out, you're 00:09:25.370 --> 00:09:27.129 like, he's not losing this fight. Like that song 00:09:27.129 --> 00:09:30.570 alone is just like the best. And I think that's 00:09:30.570 --> 00:09:32.450 good. Cause it kind of eases people into it. 00:09:32.590 --> 00:09:34.529 And then we can start, we can start rocking and 00:09:34.529 --> 00:09:36.600 rolling right after that. Alright, well then 00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:37.980 let's do that, because I know what I'm going 00:09:37.980 --> 00:09:41.039 to follow that up with. Because the first note 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:44.259 of my song that I'm going to pick to follow that 00:09:44.259 --> 00:09:48.559 up is just... And then, you know, it's about 00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:51.820 to go off as the song builds. I'm going back 00:09:51.820 --> 00:09:55.720 to 1994's Ill Communication. And we are going 00:09:55.720 --> 00:09:59.059 to turn this thing up to 11 with the Beastie 00:09:59.059 --> 00:10:02.779 Boys, Sabotage, kicking this thing off. We are 00:10:02.779 --> 00:10:05.720 breaking through the brick wall early in this 00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:09.279 mix tonight. This song, if I'm driving in my 00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:12.460 car and this song comes on. You bet your ass 00:10:12.460 --> 00:10:15.000 I'm likely going to get a speeding ticket because 00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:18.179 my foot goes down on the pedal. This song psychs 00:10:18.179 --> 00:10:20.320 me up. It psyched me up for football games in 00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:22.940 high school and in college. It psychs me up for 00:10:22.940 --> 00:10:25.820 running, for working out. It psychs me up just 00:10:25.820 --> 00:10:27.500 to get out of bed in the morning. If I'm feeling 00:10:27.500 --> 00:10:29.440 like, man, I don't have it. I don't have it this 00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:32.440 morning. As soon as you start hearing that, you 00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:34.220 don't need caffeine anymore. You got the Beastie 00:10:34.220 --> 00:10:39.059 Boys. So Beastie Boys, Sabotage. That is a great 00:10:39.059 --> 00:10:43.009 pick, my friend. They go. That's like it's what 00:10:43.009 --> 00:10:45.149 the Beastie Boys are like my top three favorite 00:10:45.149 --> 00:10:47.269 artists of all time. And I had a Beastie Boys 00:10:47.269 --> 00:10:49.710 song on my list. So you already took that away 00:10:49.710 --> 00:10:51.509 from me. And I like that you took it away from 00:10:51.509 --> 00:10:53.350 me because I knew you were going to come correct. 00:10:53.610 --> 00:10:55.730 What did you have? I was going to have looking 00:10:55.730 --> 00:10:57.830 down the barrel of a gun. All right. That's another 00:10:57.830 --> 00:11:00.269 great one, though. I love it. I love it. Yeah. 00:11:00.649 --> 00:11:03.429 Fantastic. I love that. All right. So now I'm 00:11:03.429 --> 00:11:05.370 passing the baton back to you. What are you going 00:11:05.370 --> 00:11:08.269 to follow that up with? OK, I was going to go 00:11:08.269 --> 00:11:11.080 with with. I had an order that I was going with, 00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:13.019 but obviously I have to go off you. And I feel 00:11:13.019 --> 00:11:17.220 like 1996, it's the Beastie Boys are like, they 00:11:17.220 --> 00:11:19.360 would probably go on tour with this band. And 00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:21.700 this is another one where it just comes up with 00:11:21.700 --> 00:11:24.080 the drum and you got Rage Against the Machine, 00:11:24.299 --> 00:11:29.899 Bulls on Parade. I'm telling you, man, like you 00:11:29.899 --> 00:11:31.700 go back to back on those songs, you're going 00:11:31.700 --> 00:11:35.240 to keep on plowing through. I absolutely love 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:38.399 it. I obviously had. rage against the machine 00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:41.740 on my list i had freedom from the first album 00:11:41.740 --> 00:11:44.559 because at the end that's a great one when it's 00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:46.919 just building up and you're running and then 00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:48.600 all of a sudden he just starts yelling freedom 00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:51.919 at the top of his lungs it just you feel it in 00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:54.759 in the center of your chest and it's just blood 00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:57.580 curdling screams and then the band starts picking 00:11:57.580 --> 00:12:00.019 up the pace like it's on when you're hearing 00:12:00.019 --> 00:12:02.299 that and it just get i'm psyched up just talking 00:12:02.299 --> 00:12:05.000 about it and the song ain't even playing right 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:07.730 now Yeah. I was thinking about killing in the 00:12:07.730 --> 00:12:11.850 name of two as well. Ooh, you can't go wrong 00:12:11.850 --> 00:12:14.169 with rage against the machine. Nah, they, you 00:12:14.169 --> 00:12:16.769 knew they were making it. Oh, absolutely. The 00:12:16.769 --> 00:12:19.429 first time I heard that album back in 1992, I 00:12:19.429 --> 00:12:21.450 knew I was listening to one of my favorite albums 00:12:21.450 --> 00:12:23.809 of all time. And that really hasn't changed. 00:12:24.110 --> 00:12:26.929 Yeah. I think I'm going to stay with this nineties 00:12:26.929 --> 00:12:30.309 thing we got going on here. Okay. Okay. And I'm 00:12:30.309 --> 00:12:36.179 going to go one year later to 1997. And I'm going 00:12:36.179 --> 00:12:38.460 to go with one of the pioneers of new metal. 00:12:40.039 --> 00:12:43.659 From the album Around the Fur, I'm going to go 00:12:43.659 --> 00:12:47.759 with Deftones' My Own Summer, Shove It. Wow. 00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:51.720 I didn't even think of the Deftones. That's a 00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:54.059 great pick. That is one of those ones that it's 00:12:54.059 --> 00:12:57.759 not 100 miles an hour. It's got a groove to it. 00:12:57.860 --> 00:13:01.179 But when that chorus hits, if you're working 00:13:01.179 --> 00:13:04.850 out, when he's screaming Shove It, It's just 00:13:04.850 --> 00:13:07.970 powerful, and it just gets the hair on your arm 00:13:07.970 --> 00:13:10.750 standing up. I mean, I've seen the Deftones live, 00:13:10.830 --> 00:13:13.409 and when they broke that song out, that pit was 00:13:13.409 --> 00:13:18.289 absolute insanity. I was with two of my closest 00:13:18.289 --> 00:13:21.210 friends who are now married, and my buddy said, 00:13:21.309 --> 00:13:24.529 dude, we got a problem. My wife is literally, 00:13:24.649 --> 00:13:27.350 at the time it was his girlfriend, she was levitating. 00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:30.360 She could not get her feet on the ground. There 00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:33.259 was such a crowd surge and a craziness going 00:13:33.259 --> 00:13:36.179 on in the pit that I had to take, at the time, 00:13:36.179 --> 00:13:40.159 all 315 pounds that I was and kind of turn back 00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:43.059 into an offensive lineman and dig our way out 00:13:43.059 --> 00:13:45.460 of that pit. So that way, because she was almost 00:13:45.460 --> 00:13:48.320 in a damn near panic. But that song to me is 00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:52.240 just insanity. It's so much fun. And it definitely 00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:55.480 keeps that at level 10. Yep. You got to keep 00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:57.399 it at a 10. I love it. It's going great right 00:13:57.399 --> 00:13:59.700 now. Back to you now. What are you going to follow 00:13:59.700 --> 00:14:02.059 that up with? All right. I'm going to throw a 00:14:02.059 --> 00:14:03.980 curveball now. We're going to shift gears a little 00:14:03.980 --> 00:14:06.120 bit and we're going to go with some hip hop, 00:14:06.139 --> 00:14:08.379 but I'm going with some dirty South hip hop, 00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:10.899 some dirty South rap. And I'm going to go with 00:14:10.899 --> 00:14:12.679 little John and the East side boys. What you 00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:16.139 going to do? And I think that is just like a 00:14:16.139 --> 00:14:18.399 push them, shove them type of song. It's like, 00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:20.700 you just go shoulders, you put your elbows up, 00:14:20.740 --> 00:14:22.399 you stop pushing people. But that's one of my, 00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:25.100 I'm going through a brick wall when it's like, 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.259 what you going to do? What you going to do? Like 00:14:28.259 --> 00:14:30.500 they were like the heavy metal of rap. I feel 00:14:30.500 --> 00:14:32.419 like when they were going in it, cause he did 00:14:32.419 --> 00:14:34.899 a, he does a song where he does the raining blood 00:14:34.899 --> 00:14:39.529 song with that. I've heard that. He does that. 00:14:39.549 --> 00:14:41.870 He does a, he does a song over that too. So I 00:14:41.870 --> 00:14:43.509 got to go with little John, what you go and do 00:14:43.509 --> 00:14:46.929 with little scrappy. All right. Well, I already 00:14:46.929 --> 00:14:48.690 know what I'm going to follow that up with immediately 00:14:48.690 --> 00:14:51.850 because you said something and it just, it struck 00:14:51.850 --> 00:14:55.029 a nerve with me in a good way because you said 00:14:55.029 --> 00:14:59.429 it's like the rock of hip hop. And I have a song 00:14:59.429 --> 00:15:06.129 that was done as a cover by one of the biggest 00:15:06.129 --> 00:15:08.840 names in new metal. It's actually two of the 00:15:08.840 --> 00:15:11.039 biggest names in nu metal now that I think about 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:13.659 it. And it was literally the band I just talked 00:15:13.659 --> 00:15:16.820 about. Chino from the Deftones joined Korn for 00:15:16.820 --> 00:15:19.259 the cover of this song. And now that I think 00:15:19.259 --> 00:15:21.720 about it, three make that three of the biggest 00:15:21.720 --> 00:15:25.120 names in nu metal because Limp Bizkit also covered 00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:28.179 this song live in concert when I saw them. But 00:15:28.179 --> 00:15:31.480 they still didn't make it as heavy as Ice Cube 00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:35.320 did on 1992's The Predator. And I am going with 00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:40.070 Wicked. If Korn could not make it heavier than 00:15:40.070 --> 00:15:42.909 the original, you know, the original is popping 00:15:42.909 --> 00:15:46.110 off. And this song to me, when this comes on 00:15:46.110 --> 00:15:48.789 and I'm running, I immediately start running 00:15:48.789 --> 00:15:50.570 to the point where I'm almost gasping for air 00:15:50.570 --> 00:15:52.970 because this song just hits and it's got that 00:15:52.970 --> 00:15:56.470 driving beat and it's just doesn't stop. It's 00:15:56.470 --> 00:16:00.429 just so frigging amazing. And following up Lil 00:16:00.429 --> 00:16:02.529 Jon and the East Side Boys, I feel like kind 00:16:02.529 --> 00:16:04.429 of going West Coast, keeping the hip hop theme, 00:16:04.490 --> 00:16:07.480 but still keeping that. rock tinge to it fits 00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:10.740 here so i'm gonna go with ice cubes wicked fantastic 00:16:10.740 --> 00:16:12.600 that's a great i haven't heard that song in a 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:15.059 long time so i'm definitely gonna once this playlist 00:16:15.059 --> 00:16:17.059 gets curated i'm going i think i might skip to 00:16:17.059 --> 00:16:19.179 that one first i'm showing my age a little bit 00:16:19.179 --> 00:16:20.779 i'm sure i'm a little older than you are not 00:16:20.779 --> 00:16:23.220 by much but enough where to me this was like 00:16:23.220 --> 00:16:25.419 right in the beginning of high school for me 00:16:25.419 --> 00:16:28.100 so this kind of hit with football with everything 00:16:28.100 --> 00:16:30.700 else i used to pump weights to this song and 00:16:30.700 --> 00:16:33.159 it's still to this day hits me the same way it 00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:36.149 did i can't believe i'm saying this 31 years 00:16:36.149 --> 00:16:40.070 ago. Jesus. Yeah, that's always tough to do, 00:16:40.110 --> 00:16:43.450 man. All right. I have to take one off you now. 00:16:43.649 --> 00:16:47.870 You said their name, their new metal from 1999. 00:16:48.789 --> 00:16:51.169 We got to go Limp Bizkit. I feel like they had 00:16:51.169 --> 00:16:53.470 to be on this with Break Stuff. I think that's 00:16:53.470 --> 00:16:56.289 an all -time classic. Like a mother effing chainsaw. 00:16:56.289 --> 00:16:59.620 What? So, and if I, like he says, and if my day 00:16:59.620 --> 00:17:01.720 keeps going this way, I just might break your 00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:04.319 effing face tonight. Like when that drops, like 00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:07.799 you're throwing haymakers to the sky. You know 00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:09.619 what I'm saying? Like that song will get you 00:17:09.619 --> 00:17:11.619 going. I don't care. Like you can say whatever 00:17:11.619 --> 00:17:13.519 you want about Limp Bizkit, but like when you 00:17:13.519 --> 00:17:16.059 hear that song, that song is not bad. That's 00:17:16.059 --> 00:17:20.319 a good jam. That song is awesome. I don't care 00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:22.640 what anybody says. People like to pick on Limp 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:24.660 Bizkit the way they like to pick on Nickelback. 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:28.890 They're an easy target. But at the end of the 00:17:28.890 --> 00:17:31.849 day, if they did not have talented members in 00:17:31.849 --> 00:17:34.470 that band, they would not have been popular. 00:17:34.630 --> 00:17:38.950 And Wes Borland is a ridiculously creative guitarist. 00:17:38.970 --> 00:17:42.690 And to take a riff that is literally two notes 00:17:42.690 --> 00:17:46.130 and make it iconic, because let's be honest, 00:17:46.329 --> 00:17:51.160 anybody here is... You know what song I'm talking 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:53.740 about already. You could get that in one second 00:17:53.740 --> 00:17:56.039 on hurdle. We all can because it's ingrained 00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:59.700 in our DNA. That song kicks ass was easily on 00:17:59.700 --> 00:18:02.180 my list. And I'll tell you right now, I watched 00:18:02.180 --> 00:18:06.400 the documentary for Woodstock 99. And I think 00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:09.180 it's safe to say it's fairly obvious that no 00:18:09.180 --> 00:18:11.440 matter what happened that weekend, things were 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.319 not going to end well. But Limp Bizkit playing 00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:18.400 break stuff certainly did not make things any 00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.619 better. That just shows how visceral that song 00:18:21.619 --> 00:18:24.359 is. It just took things to a completely different 00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:27.279 level. It really did. It sounded a mass riot. 00:18:27.859 --> 00:18:30.460 Right? And I mean, if a song could do that, it's 00:18:30.460 --> 00:18:33.859 obviously striking a nerve with somebody. So 00:18:33.859 --> 00:18:37.380 I'm going to stay in this nu metal area with 00:18:37.380 --> 00:18:40.319 you, but I'm going to go to a band that's a little 00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:43.799 more highly regarded than Limp Bizkit, but again, 00:18:43.980 --> 00:18:48.069 just as talented. And I love this group. I'm 00:18:48.069 --> 00:18:51.650 so sad that their lead singer is no longer with 00:18:51.650 --> 00:18:54.109 us. And you go back and you listen to these lyrics 00:18:54.109 --> 00:18:57.329 and they hit so much harder now than they did 00:18:57.329 --> 00:19:01.670 originally. I saw this tour in 2000 at a place 00:19:01.670 --> 00:19:04.410 called the Birch Hill Nightclub. Less than a 00:19:04.410 --> 00:19:07.509 thousand people. And a year later, I'm watching 00:19:07.509 --> 00:19:10.470 this band open for Metallica at Giant Stadium. 00:19:10.589 --> 00:19:14.349 And that band is Linkin Park. The album is Hybrid 00:19:14.349 --> 00:19:18.589 Theory. And the track is One Step Closer. Yes, 00:19:18.809 --> 00:19:22.829 it's their biggest hit. Yes, it's their most 00:19:22.829 --> 00:19:27.690 popular song. But every time I hear it, the whole 00:19:27.690 --> 00:19:30.029 ending, the breakdown, the shut up when I'm talking 00:19:30.029 --> 00:19:33.390 to you, like it just. takes it to a level and 00:19:33.390 --> 00:19:36.349 you are rocking when that part hits. Unbelievable. 00:19:37.009 --> 00:19:40.609 Absolutely love it. Linkin Park's One Step Closer. 00:19:41.130 --> 00:19:43.490 Absolutely love it. So I don't know how to count. 00:19:43.569 --> 00:19:46.269 How many songs have we done right now? We are 00:19:46.269 --> 00:19:49.730 at track nine already. So this is your last song 00:19:49.730 --> 00:19:53.490 for Side A. track night side a okay oh my god 00:19:53.490 --> 00:19:57.369 i'm so nervous right now um i'm gonna i'm gonna 00:19:57.369 --> 00:19:59.930 go back to rap real quick and uh this one was 00:19:59.930 --> 00:20:03.490 a late entry in my mind and this song is like 00:20:03.490 --> 00:20:05.730 one of those ones you make that stinky poo face 00:20:05.730 --> 00:20:08.250 like you just give the like when this beat hits 00:20:08.250 --> 00:20:12.569 it's gonna be naz nasty naz made you look when 00:20:12.569 --> 00:20:14.950 they're like they shooting all made you look 00:20:15.309 --> 00:20:17.269 That just gives you like, just like you just 00:20:17.269 --> 00:20:19.289 mean mug the whole time of that song. And that 00:20:19.289 --> 00:20:23.829 song is like 2002 was, that was a jam. That is 00:20:23.829 --> 00:20:27.829 a great pick. Oh my God. That's hard though, 00:20:27.869 --> 00:20:29.990 to follow up. Cause I got to close this side 00:20:29.990 --> 00:20:33.349 out. I know we did. We did a lot of this side 00:20:33.349 --> 00:20:35.369 was new metal hip hop. I feel like it was a big 00:20:35.369 --> 00:20:38.529 one. Yeah. So I'm going to have to stay kind 00:20:38.529 --> 00:20:42.680 of in new metal. rap rock at least, but I'm going 00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:44.900 to add a punk flavor and I'm actually going to 00:20:44.900 --> 00:20:47.920 go a little deeper. This is a cut that I don't 00:20:47.920 --> 00:20:50.319 know if everybody's going to know. And the beauty 00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:53.039 about making mixtapes is you're always allowed 00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:56.759 to slide that song in there that hopefully when 00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:59.940 you're making a mixtape that's a level 10, people 00:20:59.940 --> 00:21:03.339 get introduced to this song through listening 00:21:03.339 --> 00:21:06.119 to the entire tape. And I'm hoping I do that. 00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:10.269 This song. Has psyched me up for 20 years. It 00:21:10.269 --> 00:21:13.369 came out in 2003. The first time I saw this band 00:21:13.369 --> 00:21:16.609 play it live, I immediately, when their set was 00:21:16.609 --> 00:21:20.569 done, ran to the merch booth and bought it. And 00:21:20.569 --> 00:21:23.609 this song has been in my workout mix ever since. 00:21:23.630 --> 00:21:28.369 The band is Zebra Head. Okay. The album is 2003's 00:21:28.369 --> 00:21:32.730 MFZB. You can't control me. You can't control 00:21:32.730 --> 00:21:35.210 me. I'm going with Zebra Head's Falling Apart. 00:21:36.319 --> 00:21:39.759 Song hits like a ton of bricks, and it's, I think, 00:21:39.779 --> 00:21:42.880 a perfect way to close out this hip -hop and 00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:47.019 rock mix that we got going on Side A here. I 00:21:47.019 --> 00:21:48.579 love it. I love it. I'm definitely going to peep 00:21:48.579 --> 00:21:51.319 that one. You sold me on it, sir. All right. 00:21:51.420 --> 00:21:54.839 Well, there you have it, folks. Side A is completed. 00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:59.119 We kick things off with DMX's intro from It's 00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:02.359 Dark and Hell is Hot, Beastie Boys' Sabotage, 00:22:02.519 --> 00:22:06.539 Rage Against the Machine's Bulls on Parade. Deftones' 00:22:06.700 --> 00:22:09.980 My Own Summer Shove It, Lil Jon and the Eastside 00:22:09.980 --> 00:22:13.900 Boys' Whatcha Gonna Do, Ice Cube's Wicked, Limp 00:22:13.900 --> 00:22:17.180 Bizkit's Break Stuff, Linkin Park's One Step 00:22:17.180 --> 00:22:21.759 Closer, Nas' Made Ya Look, and Zebrahead's Fallin' 00:22:21.779 --> 00:22:26.740 Apart. I love it. I love it. Head over to myweeklymixtape 00:22:26.740 --> 00:22:29.220 .com to hear all the songs we're discussing in 00:22:29.220 --> 00:22:32.119 this mix through the playlist embedded on the 00:22:32.119 --> 00:22:36.200 episode page. So, Tim, here we are. Halfway mark. 00:22:37.380 --> 00:22:39.859 Do you think we're on the right track here? I 00:22:39.859 --> 00:22:41.839 couldn't wear sleeves today just because I knew 00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:43.579 my arms were going to be like, I got goosebumps 00:22:43.579 --> 00:22:47.220 already just doing these songs. I'm in. I'm in. 00:22:47.259 --> 00:22:49.680 I can't wait to listen to this playlist. All 00:22:49.680 --> 00:22:52.420 right. Well, before we flip it over and get to 00:22:52.420 --> 00:22:54.619 side B, I want to talk about 20, 10 minutes for 00:22:54.619 --> 00:22:57.339 a minute. You host the show. Why don't you tell 00:22:57.339 --> 00:22:59.019 the mixtapers a little bit about what you're 00:22:59.019 --> 00:23:02.220 doing over there? Yeah, for sure. Yeah, I host 00:23:02.220 --> 00:23:04.240 2010 Minutes. My name is Tim McCarthy. It's a 00:23:04.240 --> 00:23:06.380 podcast that focuses on mental health through 00:23:06.380 --> 00:23:08.740 humor, insight and personal stories. I roughly 00:23:08.740 --> 00:23:11.920 do episodes 20 minutes every Tuesday. And on 00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:14.019 Thursdays, I do interviews. I've done interviews 00:23:14.019 --> 00:23:16.220 with the likes of Alison Stoner, Gigi Robinson, 00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:20.119 Dane Cook. I've had NFL players on, WNBA player 00:23:20.119 --> 00:23:23.599 on and just a slew of like psychologists, recce 00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:25.940 masters, like anybody in the mental health field 00:23:25.940 --> 00:23:27.839 where we just openly talk about mental health. 00:23:28.190 --> 00:23:30.450 Uh, my tagline is break the stigma by cracking 00:23:30.450 --> 00:23:33.289 a smile because it's, it's not a funny subject, 00:23:33.369 --> 00:23:35.170 but we got to try to break the stigma one way 00:23:35.170 --> 00:23:37.170 or another. And I think bringing people on the 00:23:37.170 --> 00:23:39.450 quote unquote joke is a lot easier than listening 00:23:39.450 --> 00:23:42.089 to like, say a doctor talked to you with a bunch 00:23:42.089 --> 00:23:44.049 of big keywords and you have no idea what they're 00:23:44.049 --> 00:23:46.630 even talking about. Whereas I am a 37 year old 00:23:46.630 --> 00:23:48.869 guy just going through it. And I'm just sharing 00:23:48.869 --> 00:23:51.349 my experiences and sharing a good conversation 00:23:51.349 --> 00:23:54.279 about mental health in an easy way. Well, I love 00:23:54.279 --> 00:23:56.579 the show because I have struggled with anxiety 00:23:56.579 --> 00:23:58.720 for years. I've talked about it a couple of times 00:23:58.720 --> 00:24:01.140 on this show, kind of here and there, but it's 00:24:01.140 --> 00:24:04.660 not something that I am always comfortable talking 00:24:04.660 --> 00:24:07.240 about. So hearing you do it week in and week 00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:09.640 out is very refreshing to me. It's important 00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:12.380 to me because I feel like when you're talking 00:24:12.380 --> 00:24:15.400 about certain things, I can relate to those things 00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:19.250 and I don't necessarily have to be. talking to 00:24:19.250 --> 00:24:21.269 somebody else about it, I feel like there's a 00:24:21.269 --> 00:24:23.089 community there. When I'm listening to you talk 00:24:23.089 --> 00:24:25.230 about some of the things that I struggle with, 00:24:25.329 --> 00:24:28.190 that everybody struggles with, you feel a sense 00:24:28.190 --> 00:24:30.269 of community. And I think it's an important thing 00:24:30.269 --> 00:24:32.849 what you're doing there. And I'm excited to listen 00:24:32.849 --> 00:24:34.910 each week. And I thank you for doing a show like 00:24:34.910 --> 00:24:37.609 that because that takes a lot of bravery and 00:24:37.609 --> 00:24:41.150 that takes a lot to try to break that stigma. 00:24:41.190 --> 00:24:44.210 So it's extremely impressive. And I think it's 00:24:44.210 --> 00:24:46.970 an important thing you're doing out there. Thank 00:24:46.970 --> 00:24:48.549 you so much, Brian. You're the man. I love you. 00:24:49.009 --> 00:24:51.349 Likewise, dude. Well, as someone who hosts a 00:24:51.349 --> 00:24:53.769 mental health podcast, I kind of wanted to talk 00:24:53.769 --> 00:24:55.950 about we're making this workout mix tonight. 00:24:56.670 --> 00:25:00.509 How important do you feel a good workout is when 00:25:00.509 --> 00:25:04.269 it comes to the mental health aspect of however 00:25:04.269 --> 00:25:08.410 each of us is handling that? Man, it's so cliche, 00:25:08.509 --> 00:25:11.509 but just like drinking water, being active, like 00:25:11.509 --> 00:25:14.009 helps your mental health tremendously and just 00:25:14.009 --> 00:25:16.690 doing those things. But like to have like audio 00:25:16.690 --> 00:25:19.769 steroids to get you through it is out of control. 00:25:19.869 --> 00:25:22.690 Like music is so powerful. Like you can listen 00:25:22.690 --> 00:25:24.450 to something and make yourself cry. You can make 00:25:24.450 --> 00:25:26.170 yourself get amped up. You can make yourself 00:25:26.170 --> 00:25:27.950 angry. There's like there's so many emotions 00:25:27.950 --> 00:25:30.170 and it triggers so many different emotions for 00:25:30.170 --> 00:25:32.569 you. your mental health is going to be great. 00:25:32.650 --> 00:25:34.269 If you're killing it, like you're killing it, 00:25:34.309 --> 00:25:36.230 like in your daily life, like it always starts 00:25:36.230 --> 00:25:37.869 with yourself and you got to make sure you're 00:25:37.869 --> 00:25:39.390 taking care of yourself. You're the most important 00:25:39.390 --> 00:25:41.430 person in your own life and you got to treat 00:25:41.430 --> 00:25:43.529 yourself pretty right. So if you're going to 00:25:43.529 --> 00:25:45.769 the gym, drinking water, getting sunlight, like 00:25:45.769 --> 00:25:47.890 you're unstoppable. So any song that you put 00:25:47.890 --> 00:25:49.650 on, like that's just your theme song for just 00:25:49.650 --> 00:25:52.390 messing up the world. There you go. I love it. 00:25:52.410 --> 00:25:56.369 And honestly, I post every now and then selfies 00:25:56.369 --> 00:25:59.170 when I'm out for a walk, listening to music because. 00:25:59.720 --> 00:26:01.900 People have said to me, do you just sit at your 00:26:01.900 --> 00:26:04.119 computer all day listening to songs and research? 00:26:04.220 --> 00:26:07.640 And I'm like, if I did, I would crack because 00:26:07.640 --> 00:26:10.059 you're just kind of sitting and not moving. So 00:26:10.059 --> 00:26:12.900 for me, when I'm researching music and I use 00:26:12.900 --> 00:26:15.980 quote marks, I just create playlists on my phone 00:26:15.980 --> 00:26:19.720 and I go for a walk or a run and I listen to 00:26:19.720 --> 00:26:22.279 the songs and see, is this fitting with the vibe 00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:24.440 I'm going through? And what I do is I actually 00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:26.519 screenshot the songs I think are going to make 00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:28.690 my bank. And then I come home and write them 00:26:28.690 --> 00:26:30.490 all down. So what I actually did for tonight 00:26:30.490 --> 00:26:33.630 was I went for a two mile walk and I tested all 00:26:33.630 --> 00:26:35.930 the songs and said, which ones of these are getting 00:26:35.930 --> 00:26:38.289 me hyped up? Which ones of these are not hitting 00:26:38.289 --> 00:26:40.750 right now? So those are the songs I'm pulling 00:26:40.750 --> 00:26:43.710 from. I always ask this on my podcast with my 00:26:43.710 --> 00:26:45.410 guests and I asked them what their personal theme 00:26:45.410 --> 00:26:48.089 song is. What is your personal theme song? Ooh, 00:26:48.210 --> 00:26:52.549 that is so tough, man, because I put you on the 00:26:52.549 --> 00:26:56.650 spot, brother. Yeah, no music for me means so. 00:26:58.039 --> 00:27:02.619 And I have so many different songs that resonate 00:27:02.619 --> 00:27:07.640 with me. And the one that does the most every 00:27:07.640 --> 00:27:09.779 it's my favorite song of all time. And every 00:27:09.779 --> 00:27:11.319 time I tell this to people because they know 00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:15.400 I listen to metal and punk and hip hop and jazz 00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:18.099 and everything under the sun. When I tell them 00:27:18.099 --> 00:27:20.519 my favorite song on the planet is by Kermit the 00:27:20.519 --> 00:27:24.210 Frog. They look at me like I'm crazy. But my 00:27:24.210 --> 00:27:26.869 favorite song of all times was written by Paul 00:27:26.869 --> 00:27:29.130 Williams and it was the opening of the Muppet 00:27:29.130 --> 00:27:32.549 movie. It is the Rainbow Connection. It is the 00:27:32.549 --> 00:27:36.450 song that defines me. It is the song that I used 00:27:36.450 --> 00:27:38.930 to sit on my mom's lap and we would listen to 00:27:38.930 --> 00:27:41.769 the record when I was a kid. And then fast forward 00:27:41.769 --> 00:27:45.690 25 years and we danced to it at my wedding. That 00:27:45.690 --> 00:27:50.480 song to me means everything. From my childhood 00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:52.880 through being able to listen to it and relive 00:27:52.880 --> 00:27:56.220 it through my kids. But I mean, look, I am literally 00:27:56.220 --> 00:27:59.539 the hair on my arm is straight up just talking 00:27:59.539 --> 00:28:02.920 about it. This song, every time I hear it, I 00:28:02.920 --> 00:28:04.839 get a lump in my throat. I've never once tried 00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:06.599 to perform it because I know I wouldn't make 00:28:06.599 --> 00:28:08.359 it through. I'd be bawling my eyes out at the 00:28:08.359 --> 00:28:11.440 end of it. So that would be my theme song. And 00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:14.099 it's so different than anything I listened to. 00:28:14.380 --> 00:28:16.720 But it was one of the first songs that made a 00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:19.519 huge impact on me. As a child, and it's stuck 00:28:19.519 --> 00:28:22.339 with me through now. Love it. I absolutely love 00:28:22.339 --> 00:28:26.380 it. So now from Kermit the Frog, I am going to 00:28:26.380 --> 00:28:30.339 kick things off for Side B. Fantastic. Hmm. I 00:28:30.339 --> 00:28:32.079 should probably go with the Electric Mayhem's 00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:35.400 Can You Picture That Here, but I won't. I'm going 00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:38.259 to go with an album from 1992. And the first 00:28:38.259 --> 00:28:41.240 time I heard this album, I knew I was listening 00:28:41.240 --> 00:28:45.779 to a game -changing band. And they had been around 00:28:45.779 --> 00:28:49.339 for a while before that. And this was the song 00:28:49.339 --> 00:28:52.440 that introduced me to this band. My buddy had 00:28:52.440 --> 00:28:55.079 it on one of his mixtapes. And as soon as I heard 00:28:55.079 --> 00:28:59.079 it, I needed to go out and find everything by 00:28:59.079 --> 00:29:01.380 this band. I've been listening to them now for 00:29:01.380 --> 00:29:06.359 another, again, 30 plus years. But man, do they 00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:09.539 bring it. And it's from 1992's Vulgar Display 00:29:09.539 --> 00:29:13.640 of Power. And the song kicks off the heaviest 00:29:13.640 --> 00:29:15.759 way you could kick off a side. It's just Phil 00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:18.920 Anselmo screaming one, two, three, four. I'm 00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:22.759 going with Pantera's F and hostile. Oh, okay. 00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:25.559 I absolutely love it. Because you want to bring 00:29:25.559 --> 00:29:30.299 the manic energy. This song does it. So Pantera's 00:29:30.299 --> 00:29:34.380 F and hostile to kick off side B. Full on metal 00:29:34.380 --> 00:29:38.509 attack. I had Pantera as well on my list. I didn't 00:29:38.509 --> 00:29:39.970 know if I was going to use them, but I was going 00:29:39.970 --> 00:29:42.269 to go with Cowboys from Hell. Another great one. 00:29:42.470 --> 00:29:44.789 I mean, I could have went with pretty much anything. 00:29:44.950 --> 00:29:48.630 I'm broken, mouth of war. But that opening where 00:29:48.630 --> 00:29:51.170 he goes, one, two, three. Like, I just, as soon 00:29:51.170 --> 00:29:53.069 as he gets to two, I'm like, I'm in. Let's do 00:29:53.069 --> 00:29:55.410 this. Come on. I don't, you know, like, are we 00:29:55.410 --> 00:29:57.109 throwing couches across the street? Like, what 00:29:57.109 --> 00:29:59.410 are we doing? I got it. It just pumps me up. 00:29:59.509 --> 00:30:02.309 And I wanted to kick off a side with that one. 00:30:02.910 --> 00:30:06.210 I absolutely love it. All right. So mine that 00:30:06.210 --> 00:30:09.089 I'm going to say now was a contender for my first 00:30:09.089 --> 00:30:12.009 overall pick on the mixtape. So we're going to 00:30:12.009 --> 00:30:15.470 push it over to this side. And it's kind of unconventional. 00:30:15.589 --> 00:30:18.269 It is a song. It is a song. It's a theme song. 00:30:18.769 --> 00:30:22.029 And it's a very powerful theme song. I once listened 00:30:22.029 --> 00:30:24.049 to this when I was late for a train and it came 00:30:24.049 --> 00:30:26.390 on my iPod shuffle. And when I heard the song, 00:30:26.450 --> 00:30:29.230 I ran an extra 10 seconds off my time and I was 00:30:29.230 --> 00:30:32.109 the fastest guy there. And it's by Jim Johnson. 00:30:32.559 --> 00:30:34.859 It's called Unstable, and it is the theme song 00:30:34.859 --> 00:30:38.400 to the WWF wrestler, The Ultimate Warrior. We 00:30:38.400 --> 00:30:40.200 got to go with The Ultimate Warrior's theme song 00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:44.180 to keep it going. Hell yeah, dude. I love it. 00:30:45.259 --> 00:30:50.680 My favorite wrestling match of all time was SummerSlam. 00:30:50.700 --> 00:30:53.759 I want to say I am not good with sports knowledge. 00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:58.480 Yeah, same. I want to say 1990. Honky Tonk Man 00:30:58.480 --> 00:31:01.769 is defending his title. and it was a squash match. 00:31:02.309 --> 00:31:05.509 Ultimate Warrior ran into the ring, and I think 00:31:05.509 --> 00:31:08.609 it was in like 20 seconds, just pummeled him. 00:31:08.829 --> 00:31:12.430 I was jumping off the couch as a kid. That song 00:31:12.430 --> 00:31:16.890 is the first time we had a bingo on Playlist 00:31:16.890 --> 00:31:21.250 Wars in the Wrestling Themes episode with KC 00:31:21.250 --> 00:31:24.109 from The Itch. We all picked it as the ninth 00:31:24.109 --> 00:31:27.349 track. I love that frigging song, dude. That 00:31:27.349 --> 00:31:31.039 is awesome. Yeah, dude. Yeah, I had to go a wrestling 00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:32.900 song, and I knew right away that that was going 00:31:32.900 --> 00:31:34.259 to be one. I thought it was going to kick off 00:31:34.259 --> 00:31:35.920 with that, but I was like, no, we got to ease 00:31:35.920 --> 00:31:39.200 that one in. Definitely, definitely. Now, coming 00:31:39.200 --> 00:31:43.539 out of that, all right, I want to punk things 00:31:43.539 --> 00:31:47.480 up a little bit. Oh, okay. And this is a song 00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:50.859 that every time I hear it, this band does a lot 00:31:50.859 --> 00:31:52.779 of different styles of punk throughout their 00:31:52.779 --> 00:31:55.460 career. So they do a little bit of the two -tone 00:31:55.460 --> 00:31:58.220 ska, a little bit of... punk a little heavier 00:31:58.220 --> 00:32:02.640 stuff but on 1998's life won't wait i could see 00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:05.319 360 i could see all around me we're going with 00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:09.380 rancid blood clot because it's got that energy 00:32:09.380 --> 00:32:12.640 it's got that drive coming out of the ultimate 00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:14.720 warriors theme song that i think i'm continuing 00:32:14.720 --> 00:32:17.039 that and bringing a little bit of punk energy 00:32:17.039 --> 00:32:19.579 into this mix as well and you just can't get 00:32:19.579 --> 00:32:23.200 better than rancid so rancid's blood clot I absolutely 00:32:23.200 --> 00:32:26.119 love it. I've seen Rancid a couple times. They 00:32:26.119 --> 00:32:28.240 always come to Boston. Boston has a really good 00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:30.380 punk scene, and they always put on a great show. 00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:32.859 I love Rancid. That's a great pick. All right. 00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:35.279 I'm going to keep it hard. I'm going to keep 00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:38.740 it hard. I'm going to go 2002. A lot of mine 00:32:38.740 --> 00:32:41.180 are 90s, early 2000s. I think that's when I loved 00:32:41.180 --> 00:32:43.680 music the most, was the 90s. Like, 90s hip -hop 00:32:43.680 --> 00:32:45.880 was a big thing for me in, like, early 2000s. 00:32:46.259 --> 00:32:49.039 I'm going to go with Hatebreed, I Will Be Heard, 00:32:49.039 --> 00:32:51.750 because that one is great. And there's a great 00:32:51.750 --> 00:32:53.910 line to it is like, now is the time for me to 00:32:53.910 --> 00:32:56.410 rise to my feet, wipe your spit from my face, 00:32:56.430 --> 00:32:58.349 wipe these tears from my eyes. And I always loved 00:32:58.349 --> 00:33:00.670 that when you would say that just because like 00:33:00.670 --> 00:33:02.849 Jamie Jasta, just talking about like pretty much 00:33:02.849 --> 00:33:05.509 crying, but still like keep going. And I was 00:33:05.509 --> 00:33:07.509 going to go with destroy everything. But I think 00:33:07.509 --> 00:33:09.589 with break stuff, we're already at a point where 00:33:09.589 --> 00:33:11.309 we're breaking things and I don't want to destroy 00:33:11.309 --> 00:33:14.630 everything. So I went back a little bit and I 00:33:14.630 --> 00:33:18.849 will be heard. All right. I actually know immediately. 00:33:19.769 --> 00:33:22.589 What I'm going to follow that up with. Fantastic. 00:33:23.230 --> 00:33:26.890 Because I Will Be Heard has a positive message 00:33:26.890 --> 00:33:29.869 in it and it gives you this feeling of empowerment. 00:33:31.150 --> 00:33:33.589 And the song that I'm going to follow it up with 00:33:33.589 --> 00:33:37.490 goes just as hard and still brings that kind 00:33:37.490 --> 00:33:40.569 of positive feeling. Lyrically, I feel like it's 00:33:40.569 --> 00:33:42.789 a song that, well, it's got the F -bomb all the 00:33:42.789 --> 00:33:46.170 way through it, but I don't care. 2005's Lost 00:33:46.170 --> 00:33:50.059 and Found. I'm going with Mudvayne. And the song 00:33:50.059 --> 00:33:53.000 is actually just called determined. But if you 00:33:53.000 --> 00:33:55.759 listen to it, it's effing determined. The song 00:33:55.759 --> 00:34:00.160 just speaks to me. It pumps me up on a physical 00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:02.920 level as well as mentally, because sometimes 00:34:02.920 --> 00:34:05.700 when you're doing this podcast grind, there's 00:34:05.700 --> 00:34:08.139 a lot of stress that goes along with it. I know 00:34:08.139 --> 00:34:09.960 it sounds like we just get on this show and have 00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:12.940 fun. And this is the best part of podcasting, 00:34:12.940 --> 00:34:15.739 what we're doing right now. This is fun. Everything 00:34:15.739 --> 00:34:18.670 else around it is a grind. And sometimes. it 00:34:18.670 --> 00:34:20.590 knocks you down a little bit. So to be able to 00:34:20.590 --> 00:34:23.010 have these moments where it could kind of pump 00:34:23.010 --> 00:34:24.949 you back up and get you back in and get your 00:34:24.949 --> 00:34:27.869 hat back in the ring. This song, I listened to 00:34:27.869 --> 00:34:29.829 the lyrics and these lyrics resonate with me. 00:34:29.869 --> 00:34:33.210 So Mudvayne effing determined for my track five. 00:34:33.690 --> 00:34:35.809 Dude, that was on my list. And I wrote down the 00:34:35.809 --> 00:34:38.250 lyrics I like for that. Never wanted any more 00:34:38.250 --> 00:34:40.949 than what I deserve. Better bring it. I'm taking 00:34:40.949 --> 00:34:43.929 it all. F an inch because I'm bringing a mile. 00:34:44.559 --> 00:34:47.659 I love, dude, that song, that will get you going. 00:34:47.840 --> 00:34:49.940 That's a great pick. Hats off to you, even though 00:34:49.940 --> 00:34:51.860 I have to keep my hat on. I will absolutely love 00:34:51.860 --> 00:34:55.760 that. So my next pick is easier. So I saw this, 00:34:55.820 --> 00:34:58.099 there was this rock club before the House of 00:34:58.099 --> 00:35:00.360 Blues was built in Boston called the Avalon. 00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:02.460 It was the Avalon and Access. They were like 00:35:02.460 --> 00:35:04.679 very little nightclubs. And I won tickets for 00:35:04.679 --> 00:35:07.380 the local radio station. It was like WBCN's like 00:35:07.380 --> 00:35:09.579 Christmas rave. Oh no, it was like the Halloween 00:35:09.579 --> 00:35:12.619 rave or whatever it was. And it was Hatebreed 00:35:12.619 --> 00:35:15.400 that opened. It was Mudvayne that opened up next. 00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:18.039 And the band I'm picking now was a pick that 00:35:18.039 --> 00:35:20.519 we heard earlier. I think it was from FN Cultured. 00:35:20.579 --> 00:35:23.719 I'm going with Slipknot Sick. And when they intro 00:35:23.719 --> 00:35:27.179 that, when they go, here comes the pain and they 00:35:27.179 --> 00:35:30.780 just go like, that's a jam. So to put that in 00:35:30.780 --> 00:35:33.599 order, especially that I saw those three bands 00:35:33.599 --> 00:35:36.260 live in that order, I had to go Slipknot Sick. 00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:40.400 Awesome. I love it. I love that song. I had Slipknot 00:35:40.400 --> 00:35:43.519 on my list, but I had All Out Life. which is 00:35:43.519 --> 00:35:45.460 another great one. I mean, you can't go wrong 00:35:45.460 --> 00:35:49.860 with Slipknot. They are carrying the torch for 00:35:49.860 --> 00:35:52.699 modern metal, and I love it. I love seeing the 00:35:52.699 --> 00:35:58.440 metal bands headlining stadiums and arenas. I 00:35:58.440 --> 00:36:00.659 love seeing that because everyone keeps saying 00:36:00.659 --> 00:36:03.420 metal and rock is dead. It's not dead. You just 00:36:03.420 --> 00:36:05.260 got to go out and know where to find it. And 00:36:05.260 --> 00:36:08.760 the fact that you saw them on the way up, absolutely 00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:12.860 awesome. Crazy. It was like 2002. I know that's 00:36:12.860 --> 00:36:14.619 like right at the beginning. They were just, 00:36:14.699 --> 00:36:17.340 that was right before Iowa too. So that's like 00:36:17.340 --> 00:36:20.340 right at the, they were intense at that point. 00:36:20.500 --> 00:36:23.940 They still are, but they have over the years 00:36:23.940 --> 00:36:26.300 added a little bit more melody and a little bit 00:36:26.300 --> 00:36:29.900 more thematic elements to their albums, but they 00:36:29.900 --> 00:36:32.360 still bring the heavy, but it's definitely a 00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:34.960 little bit more nuanced in the later albums. 00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.639 They were more raw. Definitely. So I'm going 00:36:38.639 --> 00:36:42.110 to follow that up with a band that. When you 00:36:42.110 --> 00:36:44.409 think about Slipknot, you think it really can't 00:36:44.409 --> 00:36:46.829 get heavier than that. But I'm going to go with 00:36:46.829 --> 00:36:51.250 one band that I think is, even if it's just by 00:36:51.250 --> 00:36:54.750 a hair, like the thinnest of hair, heavier than 00:36:54.750 --> 00:36:58.550 Slipknot. And I'm going to go off of 2006's Sacrament. 00:36:59.130 --> 00:37:01.969 And I'm going to go with Lamb of God, Redneck. 00:37:02.210 --> 00:37:09.050 Ooh. This song is pure intensity. My wife. is 00:37:09.050 --> 00:37:11.789 not a Lamb of God fan, but not for the music. 00:37:12.550 --> 00:37:15.329 We saw Lamb of God and Machine Head open up for 00:37:15.329 --> 00:37:18.570 Metallica. The two of us were in the upper level 00:37:18.570 --> 00:37:21.309 of Madison Square Garden, so high up that there 00:37:21.309 --> 00:37:23.849 was like a little bit of an overhang over our 00:37:23.849 --> 00:37:28.469 seats. And it was me at the end, my wife, and 00:37:28.469 --> 00:37:31.989 then there was some kids next to us. Lamb of 00:37:31.989 --> 00:37:34.730 God came out, and this kid put his arm up in 00:37:34.730 --> 00:37:37.690 the air with the rock horns. And he left it up 00:37:37.690 --> 00:37:40.510 for the entire set. And my wife kept turning 00:37:40.510 --> 00:37:42.570 to me, making this I'm going to throw up face. 00:37:43.269 --> 00:37:46.489 And I said to her, do you not like the band? 00:37:46.630 --> 00:37:48.309 And she just kept going, no. And she was like 00:37:48.309 --> 00:37:50.829 trying to signal. Apparently this kid hadn't 00:37:50.829 --> 00:37:53.690 showered in days and did not know what deodorant 00:37:53.690 --> 00:37:57.429 was. And he was just waving armpit stench where 00:37:57.429 --> 00:38:00.110 she was about the height of his armpit for the 00:38:00.110 --> 00:38:04.550 entire. Lamb of God set. She said so within 45 00:38:04.550 --> 00:38:08.630 minutes, it became a Pavlov's dogs moment for 00:38:08.630 --> 00:38:11.710 her. Every time she hears Lamb of God, she smells 00:38:11.710 --> 00:38:15.309 that kid's armpit. It's like a complete turnoff 00:38:15.309 --> 00:38:17.650 for her. And I love telling that story because 00:38:17.650 --> 00:38:19.510 it always makes my buddies and I crack up. But 00:38:19.510 --> 00:38:23.909 regardless, this song kicks so much ass. It's 00:38:23.909 --> 00:38:28.280 so heavy. It's so intense. And again. Lamb of 00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:31.099 God where Megadeth opened for them last summer. 00:38:31.380 --> 00:38:33.659 That speaks volumes because Megadeth are one 00:38:33.659 --> 00:38:36.340 of the big four. And Lamb of God is carrying 00:38:36.340 --> 00:38:38.280 the torch right now. So it might be a little 00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:41.739 heavier than the mixtapers are used to, but this 00:38:41.739 --> 00:38:43.820 type of workout playlist, you got to kind of 00:38:43.820 --> 00:38:46.539 be open to some new things. So hopefully I get 00:38:46.539 --> 00:38:48.199 some more people in the Lamb of God with this 00:38:48.199 --> 00:38:51.760 one. I like it. It's like a zebra head. Was that 00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:53.989 what they called? Zebra head? zebra head yeah 00:38:53.989 --> 00:38:56.670 i gotta go deep a little bit with my picks every 00:38:56.670 --> 00:39:00.230 now and then but redneck is lamb of god's closing 00:39:00.230 --> 00:39:03.110 song so even if you're not familiar with the 00:39:03.110 --> 00:39:06.969 band i went with their most iconic song within 00:39:06.969 --> 00:39:09.449 the circle the song that everybody immediately 00:39:09.449 --> 00:39:11.789 when you hear the band name you go to it that 00:39:11.789 --> 00:39:14.630 is redneck in the lamb of god kingdom and i still 00:39:14.630 --> 00:39:18.110 love the damn song all right i think we're coming 00:39:18.110 --> 00:39:20.269 to an end a little bit so i think the title of 00:39:20.269 --> 00:39:23.289 this song is is good because If you're working 00:39:23.289 --> 00:39:24.909 out to this, you're probably getting a little 00:39:24.909 --> 00:39:27.389 bit tired. Not too tired, but you're going to 00:39:27.389 --> 00:39:30.030 finish out the mixtape. And we're going back 00:39:30.030 --> 00:39:33.329 to rap. And I feel like every gym has this song 00:39:33.329 --> 00:39:35.530 playing no matter what. I think if you open up 00:39:35.530 --> 00:39:38.690 a gym, they give you this MP3 for free. And this 00:39:38.690 --> 00:39:43.769 rapper's favorite rappers go, it's Reggie, Jay 00:39:43.769 --> 00:39:46.550 -Z, Tupac, and Biggie. Andre from OutKast, Jada, 00:39:46.650 --> 00:39:49.190 Corrupt, Nas, and then me. That is Eminem till 00:39:49.190 --> 00:39:54.739 I collapse. Nice. When it's like... Yeah, that's... 00:39:54.739 --> 00:39:58.380 It's cliche. It's like every Jim song, but if 00:39:58.380 --> 00:40:00.019 we're going to go with the classics, a couple 00:40:00.019 --> 00:40:02.059 of them, you got to go Eminem until I collapse. 00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:03.880 And it's perfect because it's coming down to 00:40:03.880 --> 00:40:06.079 the end of the wire. It's like, no, you got to 00:40:06.079 --> 00:40:09.719 keep on going. I absolutely love it. I actually 00:40:09.719 --> 00:40:12.860 saw Eminem open up for another band that was 00:40:12.860 --> 00:40:15.840 on this list we talked about tonight, Limp Bizkit. 00:40:15.940 --> 00:40:20.329 It was Papa Roach, Eminem, and Limp Bizkit. And 00:40:20.329 --> 00:40:22.170 this was back on the significant other tour. 00:40:22.250 --> 00:40:25.269 This was a massive, massive tour in an arena. 00:40:25.730 --> 00:40:30.250 And seeing Eminem, I literally said to my buddy, 00:40:30.309 --> 00:40:33.349 this guy's going to be headlining arenas in no 00:40:33.349 --> 00:40:36.849 time. And sure enough, not saying like I called 00:40:36.849 --> 00:40:40.690 it because everybody could see it was as obvious 00:40:40.690 --> 00:40:42.789 as could be that Eminem was going to be a legend 00:40:42.789 --> 00:40:45.849 from the first album. It was just a matter of 00:40:45.849 --> 00:40:50.429 time. Yeah. But coming out of that. Is tough 00:40:50.429 --> 00:40:53.750 because you went Lamb of God and Eminem. So it's 00:40:53.750 --> 00:40:56.210 kind of this pivoting thing. And this is my last 00:40:56.210 --> 00:41:00.070 pick of the night. So what I'm going to do, I'm 00:41:00.070 --> 00:41:02.190 in New York. You're up in Boston. I'm going to 00:41:02.190 --> 00:41:05.989 tip my hat to you and to Boston with my final 00:41:05.989 --> 00:41:09.110 pick of the night. And it's the perfect song 00:41:09.110 --> 00:41:12.130 for me to close out my part of this mixtape with. 00:41:12.889 --> 00:41:15.190 And it's a great song to work out to. I'm going 00:41:15.190 --> 00:41:19.869 to go off of 2011's Going Out in Style. I'm going 00:41:19.869 --> 00:41:22.510 with the Dropkick Murphys and the title track, 00:41:22.789 --> 00:41:27.230 Going Out in Style. I love it. I absolutely love 00:41:27.230 --> 00:41:31.349 it. Thank you, sir, for the local flavor. There 00:41:31.349 --> 00:41:34.449 you go. Yeah, I actually saw the Dropkick Murphys 00:41:34.449 --> 00:41:38.030 play at the other one, and it was like the Kings 00:41:38.030 --> 00:41:41.409 of Nothing. Oh, what was that? The Unseen and 00:41:41.409 --> 00:41:43.329 the Dropkick Murphys. I saw them at the other 00:41:43.329 --> 00:41:45.349 place and that was like another small venue. 00:41:45.590 --> 00:41:47.929 So yeah, I got my butt kicked in that one as 00:41:47.929 --> 00:41:51.130 well. So I got to see a lot of good shows at 00:41:51.130 --> 00:41:52.849 a lot of small venues and that was one that I 00:41:52.849 --> 00:41:54.869 won't forget either. Yeah, Kings of Nothing, 00:41:54.909 --> 00:41:56.449 one of my favorite bands of all time. That was 00:41:56.449 --> 00:41:58.090 one of the first times I got to see them. So 00:41:58.090 --> 00:42:00.869 shout out to them. Love that kind of punk, man. 00:42:00.909 --> 00:42:03.610 That is amazing. Yeah, the old like rockabilly 00:42:03.610 --> 00:42:06.190 type punk. Yeah, exactly. And I wish there was 00:42:06.190 --> 00:42:08.329 a lot more of that to be perfectly honest with 00:42:08.329 --> 00:42:13.389 you. Yeah. So now you have the hardest part of 00:42:13.389 --> 00:42:18.389 this mixtape. You opened it on side A and now 00:42:18.389 --> 00:42:21.449 you're closing it at the end of side B. I always 00:42:21.449 --> 00:42:24.150 like to make it challenging for like you. You 00:42:24.150 --> 00:42:27.230 put me on the spot. I'm putting you on the spot 00:42:27.230 --> 00:42:29.989 with this one. It's not easy. What are you closing 00:42:29.989 --> 00:42:33.849 off tonight's mixtape with? All right. All right. 00:42:33.889 --> 00:42:36.730 All right. This one. OK, so with my first one. 00:42:37.230 --> 00:42:39.750 we had to start off a little bit slow okay so 00:42:39.750 --> 00:42:42.789 this one we got to kind of end a little bit slow 00:42:42.789 --> 00:42:45.769 with like a good cap off a little epic so originally 00:42:45.769 --> 00:42:48.550 my pick was going to be uh tom petty i won't 00:42:48.550 --> 00:42:50.690 back down i feel like that's a song that can 00:42:50.690 --> 00:42:52.530 really get you when you like that's a song that 00:42:52.530 --> 00:42:54.369 you feel in your in your plums like that's when 00:42:54.369 --> 00:42:57.769 you go this band i'm picking now was also was 00:42:57.769 --> 00:43:00.489 going to be my first pick overall which the song 00:43:00.489 --> 00:43:04.139 was going to be give me back my bullets but For 00:43:04.139 --> 00:43:06.260 the last song, I think we have to go classic 00:43:06.260 --> 00:43:08.699 with the buildup and how epic it is at the end. 00:43:08.780 --> 00:43:10.719 It reminds me of the Devil's Rejects end when 00:43:10.719 --> 00:43:12.659 they're having the shootout. I got to go Lynyrd 00:43:12.659 --> 00:43:21.019 Skynyrd, Freebird. Wow. Yeah. When it builds 00:43:21.019 --> 00:43:23.320 up, man, it's so good. I think for the last song, 00:43:23.440 --> 00:43:25.579 it kind of transcends from the first one with 00:43:25.579 --> 00:43:27.699 DMX where it kind of builds up. So it's another 00:43:27.699 --> 00:43:29.570 one that like. kind of builds you up. And then 00:43:29.570 --> 00:43:31.550 like, you're on that last leg of the treadmill 00:43:31.550 --> 00:43:33.489 and you're just bombing. So when they sat like 00:43:33.489 --> 00:43:35.630 wailing on the guitar, I know another cliche 00:43:35.630 --> 00:43:39.070 song, but to end a playlist, it's tough to have 00:43:39.070 --> 00:43:40.909 a song that just ends. And I feel like Freebird 00:43:40.909 --> 00:43:44.090 is such that song where it's, it is what it is. 00:43:44.090 --> 00:43:45.849 It's Freebird. You get what you get out of it. 00:43:46.269 --> 00:43:49.190 Yeah, dude. And look, as a musician, unfortunately 00:43:49.190 --> 00:43:53.289 I've been subject to the play Freebird. So I, 00:43:53.349 --> 00:43:56.690 every time I hear it, it's like the PTSD from. 00:43:57.119 --> 00:44:00.079 gigs of 20 years of my buddies. Cause they always 00:44:00.079 --> 00:44:04.219 yell it. So every time they yell it, we actually 00:44:04.219 --> 00:44:07.559 go into it. We were mid song once and there was 00:44:07.559 --> 00:44:09.380 a break in the song and my buddy yelled free 00:44:09.380 --> 00:44:11.699 bird. And I just moved my hand and we started 00:44:11.699 --> 00:44:15.079 strumming it. And I said it for the next 27 minutes. 00:44:15.690 --> 00:44:18.329 This song is dedicated to that guy right there. 00:44:18.530 --> 00:44:21.110 And we started playing and we did the whole first 00:44:21.110 --> 00:44:24.170 verse and the chorus and everyone's like, oh 00:44:24.170 --> 00:44:26.150 crap, they're really going to play Freebird for 00:44:26.150 --> 00:44:28.710 27 minutes. And then as soon as we're done with 00:44:28.710 --> 00:44:30.550 the first chorus, we stopped and went right back 00:44:30.550 --> 00:44:32.309 into the other song we were playing just to kind 00:44:32.309 --> 00:44:34.789 of mess with them. That's awesome. I love the 00:44:34.789 --> 00:44:38.010 song. It really is an epic way to close this 00:44:38.010 --> 00:44:41.250 thing out. We kicked off side B with Pantera's 00:44:41.250 --> 00:44:44.860 F and Ha style. Jim Johnson's Unstable, which 00:44:44.860 --> 00:44:48.019 is the Ultimate Warriors theme, Rancid's Blood 00:44:48.019 --> 00:44:51.880 Clot, Hatebreed's I Will Be Heard, Mudvayne's 00:44:51.880 --> 00:44:56.380 Determined, Slipknot's Sick, Lamb of God's Redneck, 00:44:56.800 --> 00:45:00.280 Eminem's Till I Collapse, Dropkick Murphy's Going 00:45:00.280 --> 00:45:03.599 Out in Style, and Leonard Skinner's Freebird. 00:45:03.860 --> 00:45:05.880 And if there are songs that you've heard in this 00:45:05.880 --> 00:45:08.780 mix that you have not heard before, head over 00:45:08.780 --> 00:45:11.639 to MyWeeklyMixTape .com.
