  SPEAKER_04: You know, there's not a lot of guys that want to, especially musicals.
• 13:50
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, I think if it was a play, it might be different, but yeah, musicals they they don't necessarily.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_04: It might be.
• 13:58
  SPEAKER_10: I think it's the dance.
• 13:58
  SPEAKER_10: I don't know, I don't necessarily think it's the singing, because I I mean, you know, there's a lot of guys that can sing.
• 14:02
  SPEAKER_10: Sure.
• 14:03
  SPEAKER_10: But I think it's the dancing part.
• 14:04
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 14:05
  SPEAKER_04: That might be true.
• 14:06
  SPEAKER_10: That might be like, mmm, no.
• 14:09
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 14:09
  SPEAKER_10: You know.
• 14:10
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 14:10
  SPEAKER_10: I I I get it.
• 14:12
  SPEAKER_10: Oh yeah.
• 14:12
  SPEAKER_10: But that's why I like that's why fan Phantom of the Opera is my favorite one.
• 14:16
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 14:16
  SPEAKER_10: Because there's the Phantom doesn't have to dance.
• 14:20
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 14:20
  SPEAKER_10: He just has to be scary.
• 14:22
  SPEAKER_10: Right.
• 14:22
  SPEAKER_10: You know, or mysterious.
• 14:24
  SPEAKER_10: Well, not scary, but well, he is scary.
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 14:26
  SPEAKER_10: But mysterious, you know, he's not, he's not taking part in the dance numbers.
• 14:29
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 14:29
  SPEAKER_04: You know what I mean?
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_04: Did I tell you that I figured out I think one of the reasons, one of the main reasons that I don't care for musicals?
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_10: Did I tell you this?
• 14:37
  SPEAKER_10: I know you don't like them, but you never said a reasonable per se.
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_04: Well, here I think I think I figured it out, or at least part of it.
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_04: And that play, that musical, The Descendants, is not a good example of it because I didn't mind that.
• 14:50
  SPEAKER_04: Um so my daughter the other day was watching the new um uh Wicked.
• 14:58
  SPEAKER_04: Um, the second movie?
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_04: The second one, yeah.
• 15:01
  SPEAKER_04: She was watching it on TV the other day.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_04: And the lady was singing, and it was just annoying to me.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_04: It was just really annoying.
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_04: And I'm like, why why can't I why don't I like and I'll tell you why.
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_04: There's no melody to remember.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_04: Like she's just singing.
• 15:18
  SPEAKER_04: It's like especially when she's scatting.
• 15:25
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, there's no melody to it.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_04: You know, when she's doing she's singing this song, and of course, I'm I know I'm wrong, or I'm gonna be told I'm wrong, because all of these big fans of Wicked, they can sing me every song.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_10: Oh yeah, yeah.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_10: That's like that's like you know, gospel to them, yeah.
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_04: But there's no hook to me.
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_04: As maybe as a songwriter, or just somebody who likes a hook.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_04: You like hooks, yeah.
• 15:50
  SPEAKER_04: And a in a in a chorus or I'm gonna be a good one.
• 15:52
  SPEAKER_10: Well, that's what you want.
• 15:53
  SPEAKER_10: I mean, you know, look at look at Greece.
• 15:54
  SPEAKER_10: Right.
• 15:55
  SPEAKER_10: It's got all kinds of hooks in it.
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_04: And maybe that's why I don't mind it.
• 15:58
  SPEAKER_04: Maybe that's why I like it.
• 15:59
  SPEAKER_04: So uh, and I was telling this to Sarah uh when we were getting ready for the play, and then we started playing the songs, and I'm like, I'm rotten to the core.
• 16:10
  SPEAKER_04: That's a hook.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_04: Right?
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 16:12
  SPEAKER_04: Or you know, we're better together.
• 16:15
  SPEAKER_04: Well, I think that's that's a melody.
• 16:17
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, it's well, I think it's more of a modern musical.
• 16:19
  SPEAKER_10: It's not it's not a you know, it's not a yeah, you know, it doesn't take place, it's not in a time period or a fantasy.
• 16:26
  SPEAKER_10: Well it's kind of fantasy, but yeah, you know, but it's more it's more modern, it's like hip hop ish and what not Wizard of Oz.
• 16:36
  SPEAKER_10: Would you consider the Wizard of Oz a musical?
• 16:38
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 16:39
  SPEAKER_10: Right.

  SPEAKER_10: There's hooks, yeah.
• 16:41
  SPEAKER_10: There's hooks all through that.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_10: But I mean, music was way better than then.
• 16:43
  SPEAKER_04: Well, that's probably true.
• 16:44
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I'm just saying.
• 16:45

• 22:26
  SPEAKER_10: What what what don't you like about it?
• 22:28

  SPEAKER_10: So like you know, you gotta be you gotta be a unit.
• 22:36
  SPEAKER_04: You gotta be a team.
• 22:37
  SPEAKER_04: So like when you're singing and there's a guitar solo, you're gonna go up to the guitar player and play with you know, hang out with a guitar player.
• 22:43
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 22:44

• 23:09
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, first get a guitar.
• 23:11
  SPEAKER_04: Uh I was thinking uh with how to build a solo, finding a couple of notes in a key that they could use to start learning how to play something improv.
• 23:18
  SPEAKER_04: Um like so they could jam.
• 23:20
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_04: I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's not a problem.
• 23:23
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 23:23
  SPEAKER_04: We can figure that out.
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_04: Um and I I said it also depends on you know what level they're at.
• 23:30
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 23:30
  SPEAKER_04: If they're just starting out, then some of it's gonna be hard to understand.
• 23:33
  SPEAKER_04: You know, but if they've been playing for a little while, then they may they may get it.
• 23:37
  SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
• 23:37
  SPEAKER_04: So we'll see.
• 23:38
  SPEAKER_04: I mean it'll it'll be fun.

  SPEAKER_10: So that'll take about twenty minutes.
• 24:35
  SPEAKER_10: Twenty minutes.
• 24:36
  SPEAKER_04: So and then uh then actually we should just tell stories or resonate.
• 24:41
  SPEAKER_04: We should split it up though.
• 24:42
  SPEAKER_04: Ten minutes of good stuff, then the rest is fluff, and then we end with the good stuff.
• 24:46
  SPEAKER_10: I I think that's a I think that's a winning formula.

• 27:26
  SPEAKER_04: Uh did I tell you this?
• 27:28
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, so um this is going out in public, not that anybody listens.
• 27:32
  SPEAKER_04: Um, not that anybody in my district listens, but um they're trying to figure out where to put the music teachers and and the art teachers.
• 27:42
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 27:42
  SPEAKER_04: Let me take a drink.
• 27:43
  SPEAKER_04: I'm sorry.
• 27:50
  SPEAKER_04: Brought to you by Sparkling Ice Lifesavers with strawberry flavor.
• 27:53
  SPEAKER_04: Strawberry.
• 27:54
  SPEAKER_10: Strawberry.
• 27:55
  SPEAKER_04: Um, so my my life is gonna change next year.
• 27:59
  SPEAKER_10: Right.
• 28:00
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know if I told you this or not.
• 28:01
  SPEAKER_10: Well, I know that they're closing the zippel school and they're moving everybody around.
• 28:05
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 28:06
  SPEAKER_10: So apparently they're putting everybody over at the middle school and taking the middle school kids and putting them in the high school.
• 28:13
  SPEAKER_04: Only two grades, seventh and eighth.
• 28:15
  SPEAKER_10: Oh, only seventh and eighth.
• 28:16
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, seventh and eighth are going to the high school.
• 28:18
  SPEAKER_10: Okay, that makes more sense.
• 28:19
  SPEAKER_04: Um, and uh m the middle school will become second through sixth.
• 28:25
  SPEAKER_10: Okay.
• 28:25
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 28:26
  SPEAKER_04: And Pine Street will be pre-K through first.
• 28:29
  SPEAKER_04: Pre-K kindergarten and first.
• 28:31
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 28:31
  SPEAKER_04: And so I teach right now I teach pre-K.
• 28:34
  SPEAKER_08: Are they closing Mapleton?
• 28:35
  SPEAKER_04: No.
• 28:35
  SPEAKER_08: Okay, I didn't think so.
• 28:36
  SPEAKER_04: Right now I teach pre-K through second.
• 28:38
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 28:39
  SPEAKER_04: At um Pine Street and Mapleton elementary.
• 28:43
  SPEAKER_04: And I teach chorus at the middle school and at the high school.
• 28:47
  SPEAKER_04: So, what was told to me, and again, apparently this is not official, but all roads are leaning towards this.
• 28:56
  SPEAKER_04: Uh Jenna Simonoff will be at the middle school.
• 29:01
  SPEAKER_04: Second through sixth.
• 29:03
  SPEAKER_04: She's going to teach second through sixth.
• 29:08
  SPEAKER_04: I am going to teach pre-K through first at Pine Street Monday and Tuesday.
• 29:15
  SPEAKER_04: And pre-K through fifth in Mapleton the rest of the week.
• 29:22
  SPEAKER_04: And then where we're going to put middle school course, I have no idea.
• 29:27
  SPEAKER_04: But then I have to be at the high school at the end of the day for high school course.
• 29:31
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 29:31
  SPEAKER_04: Because that's a fine art credit, and they need to be there.
• 29:34
  SPEAKER_04: They need to have that class all week.
• 29:36
  SPEAKER_04: So I'm always ending my day at the high school.
• 29:40
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 29:41
  SPEAKER_04: So where they're going to That's every day, right?
• 29:43
  SPEAKER_04: That's every day.
• 29:44
  SPEAKER_04: Well, right now it's not because I teach middle school course at the middle school.
• 29:48
  SPEAKER_10: Right, but it will be every day.
• 29:50
  SPEAKER_04: I'm assuming.
• 29:51
  SPEAKER_10: Okay.
• 29:51
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 29:51
  SPEAKER_04: I'm assuming it well, we have chorus every day.
• 29:53
  SPEAKER_04: Jen Jenna fills in for me when I'm at the middle school.
• 29:56
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 29:57
  SPEAKER_04: So so we uh and the way it is looking right now is there's a possibility that they could have middle school chorus two days a week during six period.
• 30:07
  SPEAKER_04: So I would have to be at the middle high school uh for sixth and seventh period.
• 30:13
  SPEAKER_04: Um and that way I would be teaching course all week long.
• 30:17
  SPEAKER_07: Right.
• 30:17
  SPEAKER_04: Um I don't know if that's gonna happen or not, but I I'm I'm kind of freaking out because I'm teaching s uh pre-K through fifth.
• 30:24
  SPEAKER_04: So third, fourth, and fifth, I've never taught.
• 30:26
  SPEAKER_10: I find it interesting.
• 30:27
  SPEAKER_10: They're doing they're starting this now and they're implementing it in the fall.
• 30:31
  SPEAKER_10: I don't understand it.
• 30:32
  SPEAKER_09: It it it makes no sense.
• 30:33
  SPEAKER_09: It makes no sense.
• 30:34
  SPEAKER_09: It's gonna be it's gonna be a a Charlie Fox truck.
• 30:37
  SPEAKER_09: It is.
• 30:37
  SPEAKER_09: It is.
• 30:38
  SPEAKER_09: And it's gonna be crazy.
• 30:39
  SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
• 30:39
  SPEAKER_09: Nobody's gonna be happy.
• 30:41
  SPEAKER_04: Why couldn't they say, we're gonna close Zipple next year?
• 30:44
  SPEAKER_04: So we're gonna do this move.
• 30:46
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, you came up with the idea this year.
• 30:48
  SPEAKER_10: Next year, start implementing it what during the school year.
• 30:51
  SPEAKER_10: So by the time school ends next year, right?
• 30:54
  SPEAKER_10: You're ready to move.
• 30:54
  SPEAKER_04: Ready to go.
• 30:55
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 30:56
  SPEAKER_04: And if you have to build some things throughout the year, you can do that.
• 31:00
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 31:01
  SPEAKER_04: You know?
• 31:02
  SPEAKER_04: And and that way it doesn't have to all be done during the summer.
• 31:05
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, that's the that's I think is a little unrealistic.
• 31:08
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 31:08
  SPEAKER_04: Uh well, I mean, there's there's a lot of things that need to be done, but then there's a lot of things that don't need to be done.
• 31:14
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, we're lucky in that our our buildings are pretty um you can you can adjust them pretty quickly.
• 31:23
  SPEAKER_10: Well, I'm yeah, I'm I have no doubt about that, but still, it just i I think ease of transfer would be better if you like, hey, we're gonna do this, let's work on it all next year.
• 31:35
  SPEAKER_10: Right.
• 31:36
  SPEAKER_10: By the time June of 2027 comes around, right?
• 31:40
  SPEAKER_10: We're ready to go in September.
• 31:42
  SPEAKER_04: And also your your teachers wouldn't be freaking out.
• 31:45
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, exactly.
• 31:45
  SPEAKER_10: Because you know, that puts some stress on you guys, and everybody's not gonna be happy, and then by the time September comes around, everybody's gonna be like, Yeah.
• 31:54
  SPEAKER_04: Well, we shall see uh, you know, what actually happens.
• 31:58
  SPEAKER_04: I think, you know, and I think there are good intentions.
• 32:00
  SPEAKER_04: I'm not saying that, you know, but it's it does seem a little a little unbelievable.
• 32:04
  SPEAKER_04: Is it a cost-cutting thing?
• 32:06
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, there's a lot of things.
• 32:07
  SPEAKER_04: Yes, it is a cost-cutting thing.
• 32:09
  SPEAKER_04: Um no, it's a population thing.
• 32:11
  SPEAKER_04: It is, yeah.
• 32:12
  SPEAKER_04: Our population is in decline.
• 32:13
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 32:14
  SPEAKER_04: Steadily, and I mean it has been over the past you know, at least 10 15 years.
• 32:18
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 32:19
  SPEAKER_04: Um and it is a cost-cutting thing.
• 32:21
  SPEAKER_04: And um we're tr we're trying to we've been trying to go all day kindergarten.
• 32:27
  SPEAKER_07: All right.
• 32:27
  SPEAKER_04: And we're one of the only places that is not in the state that is all day kindergarten.
• 32:31
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, one of the only places.
• 32:33
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 32:33
  SPEAKER_04: Um and I think there's six others uh throughout the entire state that are that still split their kindergarten.
• 32:40
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 32:41
  SPEAKER_04: Interesting.
• 32:41
  SPEAKER_04: Uh so we're trying to go all day kindergarten.
• 32:43
  SPEAKER_04: We have um CDS, which is child we're getting into the weeds here, but uh child development services, they provide special services to uh three and four year olds.
• 32:52
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 32:53
  SPEAKER_04: Uh well they're like a like a pre-K.
• 32:57
  SPEAKER_04: And it's for the state.
• 32:58
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 32:58
  SPEAKER_04: And that's going away in like in a year or two, and we have to take that on.
• 33:04
  SPEAKER_04: So that's why, you know, they're moving second grade out of Pine Street, and all those all those three and four year olds that need those special uh things will go to Pine Street.
• 33:15
  SPEAKER_04: Um so I mean it's there's a there's lots of reasons to do it.
• 33:18
  SPEAKER_04: One of the other reasons to do it is, and I think here's here's the crux of the issue.
• 33:23
  SPEAKER_04: We submit the state the state I'm getting into the wheeze, like I said, but the state uh schools submit for a new school, like funding from the state to build a new school every year.
• 33:37
  SPEAKER_04: And every year, the is it every year or every few years?
• 33:42
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
• 33:43
  SPEAKER_04: The state funds uh nine schools something like that.
• 33:50
  SPEAKER_04: And we have submitted all we've submitted year after year after year, and we've been twenty-fourth.
• 33:58
  SPEAKER_04: We've been this and this and this, and we got up to fourteenth.
• 34:03
  SPEAKER_04: And so I think if they realize that we're in dire straits because we've made this adjustment, uh, that we will go higher on the list.
• 34:13
  SPEAKER_09: Yes.
• 34:13
  SPEAKER_09: Okay.
• 34:14
  SPEAKER_04: I think that's I think that is what's behind the quickness of it.
• 34:19
  SPEAKER_04: Because they want to get higher on the list and they want to get a new school.
• 34:23
  SPEAKER_04: Like a pre-K through twelve school.
• 34:27
  SPEAKER_10: Just close them all down and build one gigantic school like Ashland has?
• 34:33
  SPEAKER_10: I I think so.
• 34:33
  SPEAKER_10: Okay.
• 34:34
  SPEAKER_04: Uh uh you know, I'm not positive, but you know, that high school.
• 34:38
  SPEAKER_10: Well, there was that talk of combining like caribou for and press cow.
• 34:42
  SPEAKER_10: I think that that's a stupid idea.
• 34:43
  SPEAKER_10: That's crazy.
• 34:44
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that's just yeah, that's crazy.
• 34:46
  SPEAKER_04: Dumb.
• 34:47
  SPEAKER_04: Um so well, they tried to do that in the valley and it didn't work, right?
• 34:52
  SPEAKER_04: No.
• 34:52
  SPEAKER_04: They didn't approve it.
• 34:53
  SPEAKER_04: No.
• 34:53
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 34:54
  SPEAKER_10: Everybody was like, nah.
• 34:55
  SPEAKER_04: Yep, not gonna do that.
• 34:56
  SPEAKER_04: Nah, brah.
• 34:57
  SPEAKER_04: So um I don't think that'll work down here, but I think they are trying to get a new school uh from the state.
• 35:02
  SPEAKER_04: So, and I think, you know, if we make all these moves now.
• 35:06
  SPEAKER_10: Well, press gowns should just do what they did in the first place and set fire to the old one.
• 35:10
  SPEAKER_04: The the old what?
• 35:12
  SPEAKER_04: The old high school.
• 35:13
  SPEAKER_04: Like way back, way back.
• 35:14
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 35:15
  SPEAKER_10: That's how you get the new school.
• 35:16
  SPEAKER_10: Or the one one now.
• 35:18
  SPEAKER_09: Well, it wasn't intentional, though, was it?
• 35:19
  SPEAKER_10: No, I don't think so.
• 35:22
  SPEAKER_10: People were like, Is Doug real?
• 35:24
  SPEAKER_10: For real?
• 35:25
  SPEAKER_10: Did they really do that?
• 35:27
  SPEAKER_10: Doug, look what you started.
• 35:29
  SPEAKER_04: No, we we're not saying that.
• 35:31
  SPEAKER_04: We're not saying that at all.
• 35:32
  SPEAKER_04: But the you're right though, that the fire did destroy the high school.
• 35:34
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah, so yeah.
• 35:35
  SPEAKER_04: Years and years.
• 35:36
  SPEAKER_10: Now now it's an old folks' home.
• 35:37
  SPEAKER_10: So that worked out for everybody, right?
• 35:40
  SPEAKER_10: So, you know, old people got a home, kids got a new school, bingo! Yeah.
• 35:48
  SPEAKER_10: So, yeah.
• 35:48
  SPEAKER_04: Uh all right, we kids don't burn stuff.
• 35:51
  SPEAKER_04: We should we should um we should talk about some music because that's what this book is.
• 35:58
  SPEAKER_10: What are we here for again?
• 35:59
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, I have a couple of things uh I want to talk about.
• 36:02
  SPEAKER_04: One of them, well, let me get this out of the way first because I'm not a big fan of this, but I I wanted to I'm not a big fan of this band.

• 40:26
  SPEAKER_04: Um he said, twice a night we will pick a song to play sort of for him.
• 40:31
  SPEAKER_04: Um we'll present a visual tribute us uh to behind us to Neil, whether it be his to his lyrics or just his playing or whatever.

• 40:51
  SPEAKER_04: That's good.
• 40:51
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 40:52
  SPEAKER_10: You know what they should do?
• 40:53
  SPEAKER_04: What's that?

  SPEAKER_10: Because they you know they traditionally gave Neil a drum solo.
• 40:57
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.

• 41:01
  SPEAKER_04: Right, like on the screen.

  SPEAKER_10: Nah, I wouldn't.
• 41:14
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, she doesn't need to.
• 41:16
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, if she wants to do something, she I mean she could.
• 41:18
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, she's more than capable.
• 41:19
  SPEAKER_04: But I'm sure she's already, um, in an interview, she said she sat down to the drum kit to play at the when they first met um to play Tom Sawyer, and she said, I don't I don't know if I want to do this song.
• 41:31

• 41:44
  SPEAKER_04: It is such huge shoes.
• 41:47
  SPEAKER_04: Right.

  SPEAKER_04: You know, like she wants to do a drum solo, yeah.
• 41:55

• 55:52
  SPEAKER_04: It's the late 1800s old West.
• 55:56
  SPEAKER_04: You're an outlaw with the largest bounty in history on your head, and find yourself surrounded by over 200 lawmen and army cavalry.
• 56:06
  SPEAKER_04: You're surely about to die.
• 56:09
  SPEAKER_04: Nothing left to do but bust out shooting and take as many of them as possible.
• 56:14
  SPEAKER_04: Alright.
• 56:15
  SPEAKER_04: And I guess I guess the question is what song is playing while this happens.
• 56:18
  SPEAKER_04: Alright.
• 56:19
  SPEAKER_04: So Cousin Larry.
• 56:21
  SPEAKER_04: Cousin Larry.

  SPEAKER_10: I don't know.
• 56:35
  SPEAKER_10: I mean we could ask.
• 56:36
  SPEAKER_10: I mean he doesn't have to.
• 56:37
  SPEAKER_04: I just think it'd kind of be neat to ha to have you know his voice on the air.

  SPEAKER_10: I don't care.
• 56:53
  SPEAKER_10: Mixtape.
• 56:54
  SPEAKER_10: Well, obvious songs I thought of were Blaze of Glory and Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi.
• 56:59
  SPEAKER_10: That's great.
• 56:59
  SPEAKER_10: Another direction would uh to go would be Dylan's knocking on Heaven's Door.
• 57:04
  SPEAKER_10: Another one, another good one would be Thin Lizzie's Cowboy song.
• 57:08
  SPEAKER_10: The song that keeps going through my head is Raindrops Keep Fallin' on my head by the time.
• 57:12
  SPEAKER_03: Because of Butch and Sundance, right?
• 57:14

  SPEAKER_10: This will be interesting.
• 1:03:20
  SPEAKER_10: Play the country song that best describes the totality of your senior year in high school.
• 1:03:27
  SPEAKER_04: Interesting.
• 1:03:28
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 1:03:28
  SPEAKER_10: That's what I thought.
• 1:03:29
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, so on that note, let me do this.
• 1:03:34
  SPEAKER_04: Because remember I told you um that I did tell you really funny.
• 1:03:48
  SPEAKER_04: I was reminiscing about something.
• 1:03:50
  SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
• 1:04:06
  SPEAKER_04: Um along the lines of this question Um I came across a snippet of radio voice that I used to listen to, especially in high school, actually.
• 1:04:22
  SPEAKER_04: It's it's kind of interesting that you you drew that question because Oh, that's what it was.
• 1:04:26
  SPEAKER_10: The radio thing.
• 1:04:27
  SPEAKER_10: Doing a radio.
• 1:04:28
  SPEAKER_04: Right, okay.
• 1:04:29
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 1:04:29
  SPEAKER_04: So I used to listen to uh when I was in high school, I used to listen of course you know, I was a uh you know, I was a metalhead sort of or hard rock guy in high school, Van Halen and all that stuff.
• 1:04:40
  SPEAKER_04: But I was also a country guy.
• 1:04:42
  SPEAKER_04: Um and in high school and after high school, I would always listen to the American Country Countdown.
• 1:04:48
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 1:04:48
  SPEAKER_04: With Bob Kingsley.
• 1:04:50
  SPEAKER_04: And I heard a snippet of his voice and it just took me back.
• 1:04:54
  SPEAKER_04: You know how it's like nostalgia, right?
• 1:04:56
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 1:04:56
  SPEAKER_04: And so I was like, I wonder if there's a place that you can listen to the old American Country Countdown.
• 1:05:04
  SPEAKER_02: Who has the number one song in the nation this week?
• 1:05:06
  SPEAKER_02: Remember his voice?
• 1:05:07
  SPEAKER_02: Kick things off right now, an encore of the one most popular song in the USA from last week's survey.
• 1:05:14
  SPEAKER_02: Here's Alan Jackson and someday.
• 1:05:16
  SPEAKER_04: So that's in 1991.
• 1:05:19
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 1:05:19
  SPEAKER_04: Right?
• 1:05:20
  SPEAKER_04: But that's on YouTube.
• 1:05:21
  SPEAKER_04: But uh iHeartRadio has Bob Kingsley's countdown classics.
• 1:05:25
  SPEAKER_04: Wow.
• 1:05:25
  SPEAKER_04: Kind of like what they do with uh Casey Casey.
• 1:05:27
  SPEAKER_04: They have Casey Casey as well, yeah.
• 1:05:28
  SPEAKER_04: You can listen to all that stuff.
• 1:05:30
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that's pretty cool.
• 1:05:30
  SPEAKER_04: I think that's awesome.
• 1:05:32
  SPEAKER_04: So anyway, uh I just thought it was kind of neat that uh that you drew that question.
• 1:05:36
  SPEAKER_10: So I just you bring that out.
• 1:05:38
  SPEAKER_10: I've I've mentioned this before, but cousin Larry was famous for every Saturday, he listened to the countdown and he wrote down Oh yeah.
• 1:05:45
  SPEAKER_10: He kept he kept records of what what was popular.
• 1:05:48
  SPEAKER_10: Well when I when I 'cause I remember, you know, go I you know, we'd stay at we'd go to visit them in the summertime.
• 1:05:54
  SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
• 1:05:54
  SPEAKER_10: And that's Saturday.
• 1:05:55
  SPEAKER_10: That's what he'd be doing.
• 1:05:56
  SPEAKER_10: You'd be listening to the countdown writing down the I will tell you
• 1:06:00
  SPEAKER_04: So here's a little insider uh information about radio back in those days.

  SPEAKER_10: And we rode our dinosaurs to stick to the Right.
• 1:06:16
  SPEAKER_04: Well well, so so when I worked at uh remember it was uh it was it was WBPW.
• 1:06:25
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah but it was Power 96.
• 1:06:28
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 1:06:28
  SPEAKER_04: And they had Rick D's on Sundays.
• 1:06:32
  SPEAKER_04: One of my jobs was to to do Rick D.
• 1:06:36
  SPEAKER_04: So but Rick D's came on vinyl.
• 1:06:38
  SPEAKER_04: Right.

• 1:06:49
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 1:06:50
  SPEAKER_04: It was on vinyl record, and I had to cue it up, you know, and then they would uh between things it would be a commercial break.
• 1:06:56
  SPEAKER_04: So you'd you'd have to take your commercial break and then cue it up again.
• 1:07:00
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 1:07:00
  SPEAKER_04: You know, and and and play the play the rest.
