- 2:06SPEAKER_01: a friend I haven't seen in quite a while, about a year now.
- 2:11SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:12SPEAKER_01: A friend of mine had moved into the area a little over a year ago.
- 2:18SPEAKER_01: It's a friend that I knew when I lived in California and strangely enough,
- 2:23SPEAKER_01: she relocated here in the area about a year ago.
- 2:28SPEAKER_01: And just because of life and time and things going by,
- 2:32SPEAKER_01: I haven't had a chance to get together with her.
- 2:34SPEAKER_01: And we were able to catch up and go to lunch today.
- 2:37SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 2:38SPEAKER_01: And go hang out in the Crown Point area today and sit out and have a few cocktails
- 2:45SPEAKER_01: and some lunch and catch up.

- 2:51SPEAKER_01: The people who do celebrate and go out of town, Wasn't very busy.
- 2:58SPEAKER_01: I was surprised.
- 2:59SPEAKER_01: I would think more people would be out on the holiday weekend, but it wasn't bad at all.
- 3:04SPEAKER_01: But I'll tell you what, traffic on the Indiana toll road yesterday was just horrific.
- 3:11SPEAKER_03: Bad, huh?
- 3:12SPEAKER_01: Just trying to get home from the old jobby job was,
- 3:17SPEAKER_01: it took me 30 minutes longer than it normally does just because of the volume
- 3:21SPEAKER_01: of traffic.
- 3:22SPEAKER_01: It was crazy.
- 3:23SPEAKER_03: Because everybody was trying to get the fuck out of town.
- 3:26SPEAKER_01: Apparently so.
- 3:28SPEAKER_01: Apparently so.
- 3:28SPEAKER_01: And I was thinking, I'm just going to go home.
- 3:32SPEAKER_01: I'm going to go visit my bartender friend Russell,
- 3:36SPEAKER_01: go have some dinner,
- 3:37SPEAKER_01: have some drinks myself,

- 3:57SPEAKER_03: You're living life.
- 3:58SPEAKER_03: I'm just living to work.
- 4:02SPEAKER_01: So, yeah, so it was a good day today.
- 4:04SPEAKER_01: So it was nice to get out and enjoy and, you know, actually interact with people.
- 4:11SPEAKER_01: One of my favorite places here in town is called The Radius.
- 4:15SPEAKER_01: I've talked about it here on the show.
- 4:18SPEAKER_01: Well, they opened up a...
- 4:20SPEAKER_01: They opened up another location in Crown Point.
- 4:22SPEAKER_01: I thought, you know what, I'm going to go on over there.
- 4:25SPEAKER_01: They did a really nice job with that bar.
- 4:27SPEAKER_01: It's like a sports bar type place, but very, very, very nice.
- 4:33SPEAKER_01: Very nice.
- 4:34SPEAKER_01: Laid out nice.
- 4:35SPEAKER_01: The accoutrement was nice.
- 4:39SPEAKER_01: So it was a nice hang in there.

- 4:44SPEAKER_01: It's good stuff.
- 4:45SPEAKER_01: That's cool.
- 4:47SPEAKER_01: Good food?
- 4:47SPEAKER_03: Good food as good as the one you'd normally go to?
- 4:50SPEAKER_01: Well, we went to another place first.
- 4:53SPEAKER_01: We went to a place that I've gone to before on a few occasions,
- 4:58SPEAKER_01: but I hadn't been there in a while.
- 5:00SPEAKER_01: We went to, it's called the Tap on the Square.
- 5:04SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 5:06SPEAKER_01: And, uh,
- 5:06SPEAKER_01: we had lunch there and then we walked,
- 5:09SPEAKER_01: you know, a block down to the radius and had a cocktail there to check that out.
- 5:13SPEAKER_01: So it's good stuff.
- 5:15SPEAKER_01: So it was nice to get out.
- 5:16SPEAKER_01: I feel, I feel like I've, uh,
- 5:18SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 5:19SPEAKER_01: been in a cocoon forever because work, work at home, work at home, work at home.
- 5:24SPEAKER_03: I know, you know, dude, I am so sick of being home.
- 5:29SPEAKER_03: I feel like I'm in solitary confinement.
- 5:32SPEAKER_03: I really do.
- 5:33SPEAKER_03: There's just not much.
- 5:34SPEAKER_03: It's like I've literally been spending a little bit,
- 5:38SPEAKER_03: not a lot of time, but a little bit of time looking for something to do.
- 5:43SPEAKER_03: You know, looking for a show to go to or a comedy show.
- 5:46SPEAKER_03: And there's some next month.
- 5:48SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 5:48SPEAKER_03: I'm going to Michigan next month to see Landau and I'll see Landau here next month
- 5:53SPEAKER_03: as well.
- 5:54SPEAKER_03: And I'll see Florentine on here as well.
- 5:57SPEAKER_03: He's going to be at the Winchester, so I'm going to go out for that as well.
- 6:00SPEAKER_03: So got a lot of stuff next month.
- 6:04SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 6:04SPEAKER_03: This month, there's not a goddamn thing happening.
- 6:07SPEAKER_03: Just nothing.
- 6:09SPEAKER_03: Every show at the Rocksino is shit I just don't want to see or just boring or,
- 6:16SPEAKER_03: you know, it's like, ugh, you know.
- 6:19SPEAKER_03: And I'm fully embracing,
- 6:22SPEAKER_03: I finally decided with these ticket prices,
- 6:25SPEAKER_03: for the first time in my history, I'm going to start asking for tickets.
- 6:31SPEAKER_03: As many interviews, I thought about it.
- 6:33SPEAKER_03: I'm in this whole redo myself thing.
- 6:36SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 6:37SPEAKER_03: like I told you last week about how I'm going to actually change up and I'm going
- 6:40SPEAKER_03: to go get the fat fucking fat farming done and get the weight off me and whatnot.
- 6:45SPEAKER_03: Right, right.
- 6:47SPEAKER_03: And I forget who sent it, but whoever sent it, thank you for your advice.
- 6:51SPEAKER_03: I appreciate it.
- 6:52SPEAKER_03: Of course, I got a laundry list of advice.
- 6:57SPEAKER_03: This is what you need to look at, man.
- 6:58SPEAKER_03: And don't be just so quick to go with Ozempic.
- 7:02SPEAKER_03: They jam in the COVID virus or the COVID shot into the Ozempic.
- 7:09SPEAKER_03: Thank you for your concern.
- 7:11SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 7:13SPEAKER_03: But, you know, I do have that kind of stuff going on.
- 7:16SPEAKER_03: And one of the things I just decided just recently really was I'm doing two
- 7:23SPEAKER_03: to three times as many interviews as probably anybody else on the Internet.
- 7:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah, probably.
- 7:29SPEAKER_03: You know, I mean, everybody else, they might do one a week, maybe.
- 7:32SPEAKER_03: If they're really active, they do one a week.
- 7:35SPEAKER_03: And I'm doing two and three every single week.
- 7:38SPEAKER_03: So you know what?
- 7:39SPEAKER_03: I'm going to start going to some of these fucking shows.
- 7:42SPEAKER_01: Sure, why not?
- 7:43SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 7:43SPEAKER_03: every single artist is like, hey,
- 7:45SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 7:46SPEAKER_03: if you want to come, just tell the publicist this and tell them I said to let me go.
- 7:51SPEAKER_03: So I'm going to go.
- 7:52SPEAKER_03: I'm going to start going to, I'm going to go see Asia when Asia comes back.
- 7:56SPEAKER_03: I'm going to go see this band Harlot that I interviewed this week
- 8:00SPEAKER_03: that just kicks ass, this kick ass thrash band.
- 8:03SPEAKER_03: You know, just for no other reason than I need to fucking get out of the house for a minute.
- 8:09SPEAKER_03: Now I'm going to go see Hammerfall.
- 8:10SPEAKER_03: How about that?
- 8:11SPEAKER_03: Hammerfall is playing at the Foundry.
- 8:15SPEAKER_03: Really?
- 8:16SPEAKER_03: So I'm going to go, I'm going to go to see Hammerfall.
- 8:19SPEAKER_03: You know, I'm just, because how many times have I interviewed Hammerfall?
- 8:23SPEAKER_03: I have interviewed Jochen Cans fucking 20 times.
- 8:29SPEAKER_03: And I've never, I haven't seen Hammerfall since they opened for Dio.
- 8:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's the last time I saw them.
- 8:36SPEAKER_03: What was that, 30 years ago?
- 8:37SPEAKER_01: Well, it was quite a while ago.
- 8:40SPEAKER_01: It was D.O., Hammerfall, and King's X. Yeah.
- 8:43SPEAKER_03: Mm-hmm.
- 8:44SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 8:45SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I would know.
- 8:45SPEAKER_03: It was D.O., Hammerfall, and Skip the Opening Band.
- 8:50SPEAKER_02: That's what it was.
- 8:51SPEAKER_02: I don't think you remember it the way I do.
- 8:53Okay.
- 8:57SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 8:57SPEAKER_01: But yeah, it's funny how those shows just stick out in your head.
- 9:01SPEAKER_01: You remember the lineup, you know, even though it was, you know, 25, 30 years ago.
- 9:05SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 9:06SPEAKER_01: It's crazy.
- 9:07SPEAKER_03: Mm-hmm.
- 9:08SPEAKER_03: But yeah, I'm just getting myself out.
- 9:11SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 9:12SPEAKER_03: and I hate to be morality guy,
- 9:15SPEAKER_03: but this was a tough week morality-wise here
- 9:20SPEAKER_03: with a loss of one of mine
- 9:23SPEAKER_03: and your personal friends, Chris Wicks, who was a big supporter of the CMS.
- 9:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he listened every week and he'd shoot me,
- 9:30SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 9:30SPEAKER_01: emails during the show if he had something to share that was relevant
- 9:34SPEAKER_01: to what we were discussing.
- 9:36SPEAKER_03: He's the guy that took the infamous picture of me and John Karabi with the terrible mullet.
- 9:41SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I saw that picture.
- 9:45SPEAKER_03: He took that photo.
- 9:47SPEAKER_03: But, you know,
- 9:48SPEAKER_03: he unfortunately passed away this week and he had to be younger than me, didn't he?
- 9:55SPEAKER_01: I think he's about in that age range.
- 9:57SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but he's in his 50s.
- 9:58SPEAKER_03: He's not 70.
- 10:01SPEAKER_03: He's in his 50s.
- 10:02SPEAKER_03: Died.
- 10:03SPEAKER_03: My friend Bill Bailey, thank Christ he made it through.
- 10:06SPEAKER_03: But he, on Tuesday, went in for heart surgery, ended up having a quadruple bypass.
- 10:14SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 10:14SPEAKER_03: Just barely, you know, barely scraped by on that.
- 10:19SPEAKER_03: So I'm just like,
- 10:20SPEAKER_03: I'm looking at this stuff and I'm watching people get sick and die and whatever.
- 10:24SPEAKER_03: And I'm just like, I better go.
- 10:27SPEAKER_03: I better get back to doing shit.
- 10:29SPEAKER_03: I do not want my eulogy to be,

- 11:46SPEAKER_03: Even when I have like a lunch scheduled or something,
- 11:50SPEAKER_03: it gets to be 11 o'clock and I'm like, do I have an excuse to not go?

- 11:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 11:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 12:01SPEAKER_03: Well, that's what I'm saying.
- 12:03SPEAKER_03: I am pushing myself out.
- 12:05SPEAKER_01: But it was kind of funny because we had plans to meet up and you're just like,
- 12:10SPEAKER_01: dude, my time is short.
- 12:12SPEAKER_01: I've only got like 45 minutes.
- 12:15SPEAKER_01: So let's make it quick.
- 12:16SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 12:17SPEAKER_03: Well, I always do.
- 12:18SPEAKER_03: But even with that, I'm trying to cut down a little bit.
- 12:24SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 12:24SPEAKER_03: whether the fucking internet cocksuckers like it or not,
- 12:27SPEAKER_03: I'm trying to use the AI more and more so that I have more time to do some things
- 12:32SPEAKER_03: and not have to constantly be a slave to this shit.
- 12:37SPEAKER_03: And, you know, but it is what it is.
- 12:41SPEAKER_03: There's that saying that people in prison, you know, what is it?
- 12:44SPEAKER_03: They get institutionalized.
- 12:47SPEAKER_03: I feel like I'm like that here at the house.
- 12:50SPEAKER_03: I've really gotten...
- 12:53SPEAKER_03: Institutionalized into the house.
- 12:54SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 12:55SPEAKER_03: And it's hard to break out of that.
- 12:57SPEAKER_03: You know, it's so comfortable.
- 12:59SPEAKER_03: It's like, dude, this has nothing to do with nothing.
- 13:02SPEAKER_03: I wasn't even going to talk about this, but I will right now.
- 13:04SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 13:06SPEAKER_03: On Tuesday, the TV in my bedroom died.
- 13:11SPEAKER_03: Oh, no.
- 13:12SPEAKER_03: I woke up.
- 13:13SPEAKER_03: TV was still playing sound, but no screen.
- 13:16SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 13:17SPEAKER_03: I go through all the steps to try and fix it.
- 13:19SPEAKER_03: It's just completely dead.
- 13:21SPEAKER_03: This was a tragedy in my house the size of my burn accident, for fuck's sake.
- 13:28SPEAKER_03: I was devastated.
- 13:29SPEAKER_03: I was like, what am I going to do tonight?
- 13:31SPEAKER_03: How am I going to go to sleep?
- 13:33SPEAKER_03: No TV.
- 13:34SPEAKER_03: Am I going to move the TV?
- 13:35SPEAKER_03: And I literally bought a TV that morning.
- 13:39SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 13:39SPEAKER_03: And I paid the extra money to have them bring it out to me in two hours because,
- 13:43SPEAKER_03: you know, I wasn't going to go to the store.
- 13:46SPEAKER_03: But I did.
- 13:47SPEAKER_03: I literally.
- 13:48SPEAKER_01: Where did you get it?
- 13:49SPEAKER_03: Wally Mart.
- 13:51SPEAKER_01: Oh, they brought you the TV?
- 13:53SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah.
- 13:54SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 13:55SPEAKER_03: I have Walmart Plus, man.
- 13:56SPEAKER_03: They bring you anything you want.
- 13:58SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 13:59SPEAKER_03: You pay them $10 a month, they bring you everything.
- 14:02SPEAKER_03: All right.
- 14:03SPEAKER_03: And I paid an extra five bucks, they brought it right to me.
- 14:06SPEAKER_03: It was here like two hours after I ordered it.
- 14:08SPEAKER_01: Did they set it up too?
- 14:10SPEAKER_03: No, I did that, or my son did it.
- 14:12SPEAKER_03: I didn't even say that I did it, my son did it.
- 14:15SPEAKER_01: It's like, well,
- 14:16SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 14:16SPEAKER_01: since you brought it this far,
- 14:17SPEAKER_01: can you take it in the bedroom and at least set it up, plug it in and fit?
- 14:23SPEAKER_03: Dude, the worst part about it, and I'm going to put this warning out there for anybody.
- 14:29SPEAKER_03: If you're buying a new TV, you better go look at it.
- 14:31SPEAKER_03: This is a big mistake that I made.
- 14:33SPEAKER_03: The TV's fine.
- 14:34SPEAKER_03: It works.
- 14:35SPEAKER_03: It's 4K.
- 14:37SPEAKER_03: I mean, it works fine.
- 14:39SPEAKER_03: It's a Vizio device.
- 14:41SPEAKER_03: With ONN or whatever, the Walmart version of Roku, I guess.
- 14:46SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 14:46SPEAKER_03: You know, it's like a smart TV.
- 14:47SPEAKER_03: It has apps and shit on it.
- 14:51SPEAKER_03: This fucking screen is so annoying.
- 14:57SPEAKER_03: I finally understand the TV industry now.
- 15:02SPEAKER_03: Everything is locked down.
- 15:04SPEAKER_03: Everything is them advertising for shit I don't have.
- 15:08SPEAKER_03: So I can't change what's on the home screen.
- 15:11SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 15:12SPEAKER_03: which means I'll never use it,
- 15:13SPEAKER_03: which means it's always going to be set to HDMI 1 to the Roku or to the VC box,
- 15:19SPEAKER_03: A or B.
- 15:20SPEAKER_03: You know, because the home screen is, hey, here's what's trending on Apple TV.
- 15:27SPEAKER_03: Doesn't matter that I don't have Apple TV.
- 15:30SPEAKER_03: It's going to show me what they're showing on Apple TV.
- 15:33SPEAKER_03: And here's what's on Hulu.
- 15:35SPEAKER_03: And here's what's on Amazon Prime.
- 15:38SPEAKER_03: And it's like just a fucking sales pitch.
- 15:41SPEAKER_03: For you to click through and sign up for an account through Vizio.
- 15:45SPEAKER_03: It's like, go and fuck yourself.
- 15:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 15:48SPEAKER_01: Well, the big TV I have in my bedroom, I never connected it to the internet.
- 15:54SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
- 15:55SPEAKER_01: I, you know, because it says, you know, do you want to connect to the internet?
- 15:59SPEAKER_01: Do you want to connect?
- 16:00SPEAKER_01: No, I don't.
- 16:02SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 16:02SPEAKER_01: And I never have.
- 16:04SPEAKER_01: I just connected my Roku to it and I never connected the actual TV.
- 16:09SPEAKER_01: It's a smart TV, you know, it's new, but I would never allow it to connect to the internet.
- 16:15SPEAKER_03: Well, mine's definitely connected to the internet,
- 16:17SPEAKER_03: not because I'm going to use the smart part of it,
- 16:20SPEAKER_03: but because if I don't connect it,
- 16:22SPEAKER_03: then I got to fucking maintain three goddamn remotes.
- 16:26SPEAKER_03: Which I don't want to do.
- 16:28SPEAKER_03: You know, and if it's connected to the internet, I can control everything from my phone.
- 16:34SPEAKER_03: Again, me with the dumb phone.
- 16:35SPEAKER_03: It's like, God forbid, I got to put one remote down and pick up another one.
- 16:39SPEAKER_03: Nope.
- 16:39SPEAKER_03: I just need an app for that.
- 16:41SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 16:42SPEAKER_03: And I do.
- 16:43SPEAKER_03: I've got a Vizio app on my phone and I got a Roku app on my phone and I got
- 16:47SPEAKER_03: a universal app for my phone so that I can cover all the bases.
- 16:52SPEAKER_03: I really am a dork.
- 16:53Yeah.
- 16:57SPEAKER_01: Well, I haven't been that dependent on any kind of device or whatever.
- 17:04SPEAKER_01: I could leave the house without my phone and it would not even bother me.
- 17:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I could not do that.
- 17:11SPEAKER_03: I could not do that.
- 17:12SPEAKER_03: Dude, I did about, I don't know, it was probably a couple of months ago at this point.
- 17:18SPEAKER_03: I did just that.
- 17:19SPEAKER_03: I...
- 17:22SPEAKER_03: Got in my car.
- 17:23SPEAKER_03: I was thinking about whatever it was that I had to be doing.
- 17:26SPEAKER_03: So I wasn't paying full attention to my normal routine of getting the car,
- 17:30SPEAKER_03: make sure that you got something connected,
- 17:32SPEAKER_03: make sure you got something you want to listen to.
- 17:33SPEAKER_03: You know, I just turned it.
- 17:35SPEAKER_03: I just got in the car.
- 17:36SPEAKER_03: I flipped on the radio and I was backed out and down the hill, down the street.
- 17:41SPEAKER_03: I was almost to that gas station, which is what, about a mile or so from my house?
- 17:45SPEAKER_01: About a mile, yeah.
- 17:46SPEAKER_03: And I was like, oh, don't have my phone.
- 17:49SPEAKER_03: Well,
- 17:49SPEAKER_03: I guess I've got to turn around to go get that because there's no way am I going
- 17:53SPEAKER_03: to go all the way to Cleveland and then be down there for three hours
- 17:58SPEAKER_03: in some waiting room without my phone.
- 18:00SPEAKER_03: Fuck you.
- 18:01SPEAKER_03: Not doing that.
- 18:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah, if you were just doing just an errand down the street and you still went back
- 18:07SPEAKER_01: and got it, then I'd start to worry about you.
- 18:10SPEAKER_03: I'm not going to say I wouldn't.
- 18:12SPEAKER_01: But having to be away and sit in a waiting room and have nothing to do, I can kind of get that.
- 18:17SPEAKER_03: Well, where's the time limit?
- 18:19SPEAKER_03: Half hour.
- 18:21SPEAKER_03: You're going to be out a half hour.
- 18:24SPEAKER_01: Well, if you're just running to the sheets to go pick up a sandwich and some milk.
- 18:29SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 18:30SPEAKER_03: But what about if I'm like going to the bank where I'm going to have to be in
- 18:33SPEAKER_03: the drive through and all that for probably a half hour?
- 18:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you can get by a half.
- 18:38SPEAKER_01: I can't do that.
- 18:39SPEAKER_01: Listen to regular radio.
- 18:41SPEAKER_01: No way.
- 18:42SPEAKER_01: No way.
- 18:43SPEAKER_01: Fuck that.
- 18:45SPEAKER_01: Well, maybe sitting in just quiet, just silence.
- 18:49SPEAKER_01: I don't even know what that means.
- 18:50SPEAKER_01: I know, that's what I'm saying.
- 18:52SPEAKER_01: Since you're making all these wild changes in your life,
- 18:55SPEAKER_01: can you imagine sitting silent just for 30 minutes?
- 18:58SPEAKER_03: Dude,
- 18:59SPEAKER_03: one of my doctor's appointments here in the near future is to get this fucking ear
- 19:03SPEAKER_03: that barely hears to hear better because I want to add more sound to my head,
- 19:07SPEAKER_03: not less.
- 19:08SPEAKER_03: Right, right.
- 19:09SPEAKER_03: I need more.
- 19:13SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I cannot be in quiet.
- 19:14SPEAKER_03: Fuck that.
- 19:15SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 19:16SPEAKER_03: No.
- 19:18SPEAKER_03: You want to see me coming to this show and not have slept in two or three days in a row?
- 19:22SPEAKER_03: That's how you do it.
- 19:23SPEAKER_03: I've never slept in quiet.
- 19:25SPEAKER_03: From the time I was five years old, I
- 19:28SPEAKER_03: had a radio on.
- 19:29SPEAKER_01: Well, that part I get because I go to sleep to O&A every night.
- 19:34SPEAKER_01: I still just play the shows.
- 19:38SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 19:39SPEAKER_01: And that's what I go to sleep to.
- 19:41SPEAKER_03: Mm-hmm.
- 19:42SPEAKER_01: Because there's some blocks out there that are 11 hours long.
- 19:46SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 19:47SPEAKER_01: So I just flip on a best of O&A or a best of Anthony Cumia or Jimmy
- 19:55SPEAKER_01: and Anthony are mean or something like that.
- 19:58SPEAKER_01: And it's like 10 and 11 hours long.
- 20:01SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 20:02SPEAKER_01: So I'll put that on and it's still playing when I wake up.
- 20:06SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 20:06SPEAKER_01: So I get that part, going to sleep with something playing, you know.
- 20:10SPEAKER_03: Mm-hmm.
- 20:11SPEAKER_01: And it does make me sleep better.
- 20:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it does.
- 20:14SPEAKER_03: And dude, for me, like if I go to sleep that way, right now I'm on a Ron and Fez kick.
- 20:20SPEAKER_03: I've just been listening to Ron and Fez nonstop on YouTube.
- 20:25SPEAKER_03: And man, if the internet flickers or something and it kicks out, I wake up.
- 20:31SPEAKER_03: I literally, I wake up, I'm like, what the fuck's going on?
- 20:34SPEAKER_03: And I look around,
- 20:34SPEAKER_03: and everything's quiet, and I'm like, oh, shit, let me turn something else back on.
- 20:38SPEAKER_03: Like 4.30 in the morning or something,
- 20:40SPEAKER_03: I'm fucking around with YouTube, trying to get a new sound coming.
- 20:44SPEAKER_03: Hey, buddies.
- 20:46SPEAKER_03: Love me some Ron and Fez, man.
- 20:47SPEAKER_03: I know you were not as big of a fan.
- 20:49SPEAKER_03: I love it.
- 20:50SPEAKER_01: I like Ron Bennington.
- 20:52SPEAKER_01: I just couldn't handle Fez.
- 20:53SPEAKER_01: I just couldn't handle it.
- 20:54SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I like the faggotry.
- 20:56SPEAKER_03: I'm fine with it.
- 20:57SPEAKER_03: Faggotry.
- 20:58SPEAKER_03: I'm fine with it.
- 21:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but yeah, I do the same thing.
- 21:03SPEAKER_01: I go to sleep with something playing, you know.
- 21:08SPEAKER_03: My biggest problem that I have a lot of times is I'll go to sleep
- 21:11SPEAKER_03: or I'll fall asleep because I take them goddamn gummies and I'll drift off.
- 21:16SPEAKER_03: But I'll drift off and I'm watching like, you know, and then this guy butchered his family.
- 21:22SPEAKER_03: You know, I'm watching some horrific true crime thing.
- 21:26SPEAKER_03: And then I wake up in the middle of the night and I just hear like screaming
- 21:29SPEAKER_03: or whatever because it kicks to like a horror movie or something.
- 21:33SPEAKER_03: I'll be, you know, I'll be sound asleep.
- 21:35SPEAKER_03: I'm thinking it's in my fucking house for that one second when I wake up
- 21:40SPEAKER_02: grabbing for the gun.
- 21:43SPEAKER_01: When I'm out on the road with,
- 21:45SPEAKER_01: excuse me, when I'm out on the road with Dokken, I go to sleep to Forensic Files.
- 21:52SPEAKER_01: I don't typically watch forensic files here at the house,
- 21:55SPEAKER_01: but when I'm out in a hotel room, that's what I go to sleep to is forensic files.
- 22:03SPEAKER_03: At least with that, though, there's no real screaming or anything.
- 22:06SPEAKER_03: It's just a bunch of detectives going,
- 22:08SPEAKER_03: and then we found a footprint, and it had two tears in it, and we dug that out.
- 22:15SPEAKER_03: This was the key that broke the case.
- 22:20SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's my sleeping in a hotel is forensic files.
- 22:25SPEAKER_01: I just watch that until I drift off.
- 22:27SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 22:28SPEAKER_03: I hear you.
- 22:30SPEAKER_03: Yeah, there's always porn.
- 22:34SPEAKER_01: Can you sleep to porn?
- 22:37SPEAKER_03: You know what?
- 22:37SPEAKER_03: I've watched so much of it that I probably could.
- 22:40SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 22:41SPEAKER_03: I really think I probably could.
- 22:44SPEAKER_03: I've watched entirely too much porn at this point.
- 22:48SPEAKER_03: I think this is not even a lie and it's embarrassing, but I don't give a fuck.
- 22:53SPEAKER_03: I think since I've been divorced, I've watched more porn than actual movies.
- 22:59SPEAKER_03: I think if you took the minute to minute, I do believe it.
- 23:03SPEAKER_03: Dude, I barely ever watch movies.
- 23:05SPEAKER_03: I don't watch movies.
- 23:06SPEAKER_03: Now, I'm not saying TV shows.
- 23:08SPEAKER_03: I'm saying movies.
- 23:10SPEAKER_03: Actual movies.
- 23:11SPEAKER_03: Actual movies.
- 23:12SPEAKER_01: The Meg or some shit.
- 23:15SPEAKER_03: And if you took my half hour that I have to spend daily watching porn
- 23:21SPEAKER_03: and you added all that up for 15.
- 23:23SPEAKER_01: You've got a 30-minute block cut out?
- 23:26SPEAKER_03: That's just how long it takes me to rub one out.
- 23:30SPEAKER_03: Like 30 minutes or so.
- 23:33SPEAKER_03: I'm desensitized to it.
- 23:35SPEAKER_03: It's not this quick thing that it was when I was fucking 25 or whatever.
- 23:39SPEAKER_03: It's just like,
- 23:40SPEAKER_03: all right, you know, pound your dick three or four times fast and you're like, good.
- 23:45SPEAKER_03: Now it's like this whole thing.
- 23:47SPEAKER_03: It's like, you know, got to really invest myself into the porn.
- 23:51SPEAKER_01: You got to work up to it.
- 23:53SPEAKER_03: I got to fully commit to being that character, getting his dick sucked.
- 23:57SPEAKER_03: You know, I got to really connect.
- 24:03SPEAKER_01: Very deep subject material.
- 24:05SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 24:07SPEAKER_03: I got another story.
- 24:08SPEAKER_03: I got another backstory.
- 24:10SPEAKER_03: Right, right.
- 24:11SPEAKER_03: She's not really my stepdaughter, is she?
- 24:17SPEAKER_03: But I do swear,
- 24:18SPEAKER_03: if you took that amount of time versus actual watching movies,
- 24:23SPEAKER_03: probably, if I had to guess, I would say at least double.
- 24:27SPEAKER_03: At least double.
- 24:29SPEAKER_03: Because every three days would be a movie.
- 24:31SPEAKER_03: I certainly don't watch a movie a week.
- 24:34SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 24:35SPEAKER_03: So that's triple.
- 24:37SPEAKER_03: No, that's double.
- 24:38SPEAKER_03: Here I go with the fucking math.
- 24:39SPEAKER_03: Never mind.
- 24:41SPEAKER_01: Well, 30 minutes, an average movie is just shy of two hours usually.
- 24:47SPEAKER_03: So every fourth day would be a movie.
- 24:49SPEAKER_01: Every fourth day would be a movie, yeah.
- 24:51SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 24:51SPEAKER_03: And I'll bet you, no lie, since in the last 15 years, I'll bet you I've not watched 50 movies.
- 24:59SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 24:59SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 24:59SPEAKER_03: I just don't watch them.
- 25:00SPEAKER_03: I watch shows.
- 25:02SPEAKER_01: I watch a ton of TV.
- 25:04SPEAKER_03: I watch a ton of TV,
- 25:05SPEAKER_03: but a lot of it is shows and interrogation videos and, you know, true crime.
- 25:10SPEAKER_03: I'm all about the murder porn.
- 25:12SPEAKER_02: I'm back in on the murder porn again.
- 25:14SPEAKER_03: I got out for a while,
- 25:16SPEAKER_03: but now,
- 25:16SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 25:18SPEAKER_03: like Al Pacino said in Godfather 3, once I got out, they pulled me back in.
- 25:23SPEAKER_03: They pulled me right back in.
- 25:24SPEAKER_03: Pulled me right back in.
- 25:27SPEAKER_03: It's not hamtube.com.
- 25:30SPEAKER_03: Ham tube.
- 25:31SPEAKER_03: Ham tube.
- 25:34SPEAKER_03: Swear, something I did when I was 13 years old.
- 25:36SPEAKER_03: I'm still never going to live that one down, am I?
- 25:39SPEAKER_01: That's what happens when you just share your life out there.
- 25:42SPEAKER_03: I know.
- 25:43SPEAKER_03: It's fine.
- 25:45SPEAKER_03: I don't care that you know that I fucked a ham.
- 25:49SPEAKER_03: At least it wasn't a living pig.
- 25:53SPEAKER_03: I fucked some living pigs too, but that's a different story.
- 25:57SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 25:58SPEAKER_03: I don't think they're biologically pigs.
- 26:02SPEAKER_03: Just awful.
- 26:05SPEAKER_01: It's funny.
- 26:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:08SPEAKER_01: So what else is going on in your world?
- 26:10SPEAKER_01: How are all the other shows and things that you do?
- 26:14SPEAKER_03: Oh, well, I did one interview this week with that band Harlot.
- 26:18SPEAKER_03: That's the only one I did.
- 26:21SPEAKER_03: I did the Seth show.
- 26:22SPEAKER_03: That went fine.
- 26:24SPEAKER_03: There will be for people that do.
- 26:27SPEAKER_01: So who's stalking Seth?
- 26:29SPEAKER_03: Who's what?
- 26:29SPEAKER_03: Stalking him?
- 26:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:31SPEAKER_03: We don't know.
- 26:32SPEAKER_03: He's had some issues where three,
- 26:36SPEAKER_03: four, five o'clock in the morning, he's got flashlights going off in his house.
- 26:40SPEAKER_03: He's calling the police and shit.
- 26:42SPEAKER_01: What do you mean he's got flashlights going off?
- 26:45SPEAKER_03: People outside in the windows flashing flashlights and shit in his windows.
- 26:50SPEAKER_03: Got a stalker.
- 26:52SPEAKER_03: I told him, come over here and get a gun.
- 26:55SPEAKER_01: I thought he had a gun.
- 26:56SPEAKER_01: No, he doesn't have a gun.
- 26:58SPEAKER_01: I thought he had one because he was going down to Cleveland.
- 27:01SPEAKER_03: He doesn't have a gun.
- 27:03SPEAKER_01: I thought he had a small pistol.
- 27:05SPEAKER_03: Not Seth.
- 27:06SPEAKER_03: No?
- 27:07SPEAKER_03: No.
- 27:07SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 27:07SPEAKER_03: I think him and the wife, I think that's a him and a wife thing.
- 27:11SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 27:11SPEAKER_03: I think.
- 27:12SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
- 27:13SPEAKER_03: I don't ask.
- 27:15SPEAKER_03: But even the wife is on board now with him having...
- 27:18SPEAKER_03: A fucking rifle or something to blow somebody's fucking head off if they come in the house.
- 27:25SPEAKER_03: And, you know, but I don't know.
- 27:27SPEAKER_03: I mean, I don't know.
- 27:28SPEAKER_03: I mean, he's called the police a couple of times.
- 27:30SPEAKER_03: The police have gathered some evidence a couple of times.
- 27:33SPEAKER_03: And there is actual evidence.
- 27:35SPEAKER_03: So who knows?
- 27:37SPEAKER_01: Like sperm or jizz on the windowsill.
- 27:43SPEAKER_01: Isn't that everything is just covered in jizz?
- 27:46SPEAKER_01: Yeah, exactly.
- 27:47Yeah.
- 27:49SPEAKER_03: Show me those stumps, you no-legged bitch.
- 27:52SPEAKER_03: Show me them stumps.
- 27:54SPEAKER_03: Jerking them off outside the window.
- 27:58SPEAKER_01: Oh, we collected semen from the scene.
- 28:03SPEAKER_03: Your house is normally blue,
- 28:04SPEAKER_03: except for this one spot right outside the window,
- 28:07SPEAKER_03: dripping down
- 28:07SPEAKER_01: from the windowsill.
- 28:09SPEAKER_01: For some reason, the grass is dead in this area.
- 28:14SPEAKER_03: We have a high salt concentrate right here.
- 28:17SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 28:17SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 28:22SPEAKER_01: So they just shine flashlights in the window and then they go away?
- 28:26SPEAKER_03: Well, there's more than that.
- 28:28SPEAKER_03: There's been some incidents where, you know, I never know with him.
- 28:33SPEAKER_03: I certainly believe that what he's saying he believes and I do believe.
- 28:38SPEAKER_03: But he's talked about coming into his house and finding the gas burners on
- 28:43SPEAKER_03: on his stove and they were out somewhere and he came back and somebody had turned on
- 28:49SPEAKER_03: the hose and the Garage and stuff.
- 28:53SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 28:54SPEAKER_03: and I'm like, well,
- 28:57SPEAKER_03: my head is like, all right, well, why don't you change the code on the garage door?
- 29:02SPEAKER_03: Oh, you can do that?
- 29:04SPEAKER_01: No.
- 29:05SPEAKER_01: Once it's there, it can never be changed.
- 29:08SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 29:09SPEAKER_01: How about just take the
- 29:10SPEAKER_03: code thing?
- 29:10SPEAKER_03: Because I asked him this.
- 29:12SPEAKER_03: I said to him, I said,
- 29:14SPEAKER_03: with the code, you know, he's got one of those code things on his garage door.
- 29:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 29:18SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 29:19SPEAKER_03: And I said to him, I said, do you use it?
- 29:20SPEAKER_03: He's like, no, never.
- 29:22SPEAKER_03: I said, then take it off.
- 29:25SPEAKER_03: You can do that?
- 29:27SPEAKER_03: And it'll still work with the remote?
- 29:29SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 29:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 29:31SPEAKER_01: All that is is a remote that you have to punch in a code.
- 29:34SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 29:35SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 29:35SPEAKER_03: I was like, just take the fucker off.
- 29:38SPEAKER_03: Is that hard?
- 29:39SPEAKER_03: I was like, no.
- 29:39SPEAKER_03: Even me, the dumbest motherfucker there is at anything manly.
- 29:44SPEAKER_03: I know that all you do is you unscrew
- 29:45SPEAKER_03: and you take whatever those screwy things are that you put on the ends of wires
- 29:51SPEAKER_03: and you just put one on each side of the wire so that it doesn't shock.
- 29:55SPEAKER_01: Well, typically, keypads on a garage door aren't hardwired anymore.
- 30:02SPEAKER_01: Oh, is it?
- 30:03SPEAKER_01: I don't even know.
- 30:04SPEAKER_01: It runs on a 9-volt battery.
- 30:06SPEAKER_03: Oh, I did not know that either.
- 30:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 30:08SPEAKER_01: I mean, I'm not saying there aren't any that aren't hardwired,
- 30:11SPEAKER_01: but typically those are just a remote keypad.
- 30:14SPEAKER_01: That's all it is.
- 30:15SPEAKER_03: The bottom line is if somebody's getting into your house
- 30:18SPEAKER_03: and that's one way they could be getting in, you'd get rid of that.
- 30:21SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 30:23SPEAKER_02: Yo, metalheads, what the hell are you waiting for?
- 30:25SPEAKER_02: Metallica's and Justice For All just dropped and remastered two LP vinyl glory,
- 30:29SPEAKER_02: and it is crushing.
- 30:30SPEAKER_02: Blackened, One,
- 30:32SPEAKER_02: Harvester of Sorrow,
- 30:33SPEAKER_02: those riffs hit harder than a freight train,
- 30:36SPEAKER_03: and the drums will straight up cave your chest in.
- 30:38SPEAKER_02: This is the album that defined thrash.
- 30:41SPEAKER_02: And now it sounds meaner, louder, and heavier than ever.
- 30:46SPEAKER_03: If you call yourself a Metallica fan, then you need to own this.
- 30:49SPEAKER_02: Smash the link at the bottom of the screen right now and grab your copy before it's gone.
- 30:54SPEAKER_01: You know, I know you're... Or as you said, change the code.
- 30:59SPEAKER_03: Change the code?
- 31:00SPEAKER_03: Gee, I don't know.
- 31:01SPEAKER_03: Get a dog, a more ferocious dog.
- 31:03SPEAKER_03: He has a dog that doesn't even bark.
- 31:06SPEAKER_03: It's like, dude, get a dog that's got some oomph to it.
- 31:09SPEAKER_03: Get yourself a pit or something that'll fucking eat somebody alive.
- 31:13SPEAKER_03: See a flashlight, have the wife let that dog out the back door.
- 31:17SPEAKER_03: You'll find out who it is real fucking quick.
- 31:21SPEAKER_01: You know, but I don't know.
- 31:24SPEAKER_01: It's a mystery to be solved.
- 31:27SPEAKER_03: We'll see.
- 31:28SPEAKER_03: Hopefully we won't find out because he's dead.
- 31:30SPEAKER_03: But, you know, hopefully they just catch whoever this asshole is.
- 31:35SPEAKER_01: Assuming he isn't dreaming all this.
- 31:38SPEAKER_03: Well, there's that too.
- 31:41SPEAKER_03: He has been through major trauma, but his wife is backing it, so his wife has seen it too.
- 31:48SPEAKER_03: All right.
- 31:49SPEAKER_03: I'm assuming that it is happening.
- 31:54SPEAKER_03: I'm assuming when they do find out,
- 31:55SPEAKER_03: it's going to be some dumb fuck neighbor that works nights or works second shift
- 32:00SPEAKER_03: or something.
- 32:00SPEAKER_03: He's out in his yard fucking doing whatever,
- 32:04SPEAKER_03: walking his dog or some shit at three in the morning or whatever.
- 32:07SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
- 32:09SPEAKER_03: We'll see.
- 32:11SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 32:12SPEAKER_01: Come to find out it's the headlights of cars from a street over turning the corner.
- 32:17SPEAKER_03: It could be that too.
- 32:18SPEAKER_03: I mean, I don't know.
- 32:19SPEAKER_03: I've never been to his house to know.
- 32:22SPEAKER_03: So, you know, I don't know the lay of the land to give you a real opinion on this.
- 32:29SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 32:31SPEAKER_03: Hopefully whatever it is, it gets solved because that is kind of scary when you think about it.
- 32:36SPEAKER_03: Somebody fucking flashing lights in your house.
- 32:41SPEAKER_03: That would have me outside.
- 32:43SPEAKER_03: That would definitely have me looking to shoot somebody in the fucking head.
- 32:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you'd be taking your long stick and go boom.
- 32:49SPEAKER_03: I'd be using the short one that'll cut them right in half.
- 32:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah, your little judge.
- 32:55SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 32:56SPEAKER_03: You know, this one looks scary, but the other one is scary.
- 32:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 33:01SPEAKER_01: That little 410 round.
- 33:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 33:04SPEAKER_03: Well, and I've got Kevlar cutters in it.
- 33:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 33:07SPEAKER_03: I keep it loaded with the real arsenal.
- 33:09SPEAKER_03: That thing will cut through a tank.
- 33:13SPEAKER_03: It's like, all right, you want to come in here?
- 33:15SPEAKER_03: Do so at your own fucking peril.
- 33:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah, pal.
- 33:19SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 33:20SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 33:21SPEAKER_01: Oh, very good.
- 33:23SPEAKER_01: Well, not a whole lot going on on my end of the world.
- 33:26SPEAKER_01: You know, it's just been nose to the grindstone day in, day out.
- 33:31SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 33:32SPEAKER_01: You know, just very busy.
- 33:33SPEAKER_01: But like I said,
- 33:36SPEAKER_01: I was looking forward to a three-day weekend just to get a little reprieve
- 33:41SPEAKER_01: and relax.
- 33:41SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 33:43SPEAKER_01: My nephew James and his dad and his brother are actually in your neck of
- 33:48SPEAKER_01: the woods visiting my dad this weekend.
- 33:52SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 33:54SPEAKER_01: That's cool.
- 33:54SPEAKER_01: So they're in the area.
- 33:56SPEAKER_01: Very cool.
- 33:58SPEAKER_01: So I was over there last year at this time.
- 34:01SPEAKER_01: I came in over Labor Day weekend.
- 34:04SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's right.
- 34:05SPEAKER_01: That's when you and me and Mean Metal X had dinner together.
- 34:08SPEAKER_03: Has that already been a year?
- 34:10SPEAKER_01: Been a year.
- 34:11SPEAKER_01: God damn it.
- 34:12SPEAKER_01: And I mentioned earlier that you and I met for lunch a couple of months ago.
- 34:17SPEAKER_01: That was March.
- 34:19SPEAKER_01: That was when?
- 34:19SPEAKER_03: March?
- 34:20SPEAKER_01: That was March.
- 34:21SPEAKER_01: Shit, so that's almost a year.
- 34:23SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 34:24SPEAKER_01: It's just like April, May, June, July, August.
- 34:27SPEAKER_01: Five months ago.
- 34:28SPEAKER_03: Five months ago.
- 34:29SPEAKER_03: Wow.
- 34:30SPEAKER_03: That seems like two weeks ago.
- 34:31SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 34:34SPEAKER_01: Because when I sat there and thought, well,
- 34:35SPEAKER_01: we met for lunch,
- 34:36SPEAKER_01: and then I thought,
- 34:37SPEAKER_01: wait a minute,
- 34:37SPEAKER_01: I was wearing my long leather coat, so it was still kind of cold outside.
- 34:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it wasn't snowing, but it was almost.
- 34:43SPEAKER_01: I was visiting my dad for his birthday.
- 34:46SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 34:47SPEAKER_01: His birthday is March 15th, so that's when I was there last.
- 34:52SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 34:52SPEAKER_01: Isn't that crazy?
- 34:54SPEAKER_01: It is.
- 34:54SPEAKER_03: It's nuts.
- 34:56SPEAKER_03: It's insane how fucking fast this goddamn clock is running these days.
- 35:01SPEAKER_03: It is.
- 35:02SPEAKER_01: It is.
- 35:03SPEAKER_01: So maybe you're right.
- 35:05SPEAKER_01: Maybe you need to get out and,
- 35:06SPEAKER_01: you know, figure out a way to have some kind of social interaction.
- 35:12SPEAKER_03: I was talking to a friend this week, you know, texting back and forth.
- 35:18SPEAKER_03: And she's like real into like military stuff.
- 35:25SPEAKER_03: And she's like, why don't you go out to like a VFW hall?
- 35:31SPEAKER_03: And I was like, I've never been to a beach.
- 35:35SPEAKER_03: I've never done anything military from the day I got out of the military.
- 35:40SPEAKER_03: And it's not that I'm anti-military.
- 35:43SPEAKER_03: Obviously, I'm pro-military and whatnot.
- 35:45SPEAKER_03: But the day I got out was the day I got out.
- 35:48SPEAKER_03: That was the end.
- 35:51SPEAKER_03: And she's like, She's like, look up where there's a VFW hall near you.
- 35:56SPEAKER_03: You probably go there.
- 35:57SPEAKER_03: You can meet some people because she's trying to help me with some paperwork stuff
- 36:01SPEAKER_03: that I'm trying to do.
- 36:02SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 36:03SPEAKER_03: And she's like, well,
- 36:03SPEAKER_03: you can just go to the VFW and there'll be somebody there that can help you
- 36:07SPEAKER_03: with this certain thing that I need to get done.
- 36:12SPEAKER_03: And I was like, okay.
- 36:12SPEAKER_03: And she's like, well, look it up.
- 36:14SPEAKER_03: Where's there a VFW near you?
- 36:16SPEAKER_03: I look it up.
- 36:17SPEAKER_03: There is literally one 1.2 miles from my house.
- 36:21SPEAKER_03: And I've never even seen it.
- 36:24SPEAKER_03: She's like, that's just fucking embarrassing.
- 36:27SPEAKER_03: She's like, you could go there.
- 36:29SPEAKER_03: You served in a fucking war.
- 36:32SPEAKER_03: You can absolutely go there.
- 36:34SPEAKER_03: And if nothing else, go once a month to get the fucking free pancake breakfast or whatever.
- 36:39SPEAKER_03: I was like, oh yeah, I guess I could.
- 36:41SPEAKER_03: And then again, socialize with people and tell war
- 36:44SPEAKER_01: stories and shit.
- 36:45SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 36:45SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 36:46SPEAKER_03: Which would be fun because God knows I got some good ones.
- 36:50SPEAKER_01: You got to get one of those ball caps that are embroidered
- 36:54SPEAKER_01: with your –
- 36:58SPEAKER_03: My VFW hall number or whatever?
- 37:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah, well, no,
- 37:03SPEAKER_01: your branch of the military you served in and the year that you were in there
- 37:09SPEAKER_01: and what your rank was and all that shit.
- 37:13SPEAKER_03: Well, dude, it's funny you bring that up because that's how this discussion started
- 37:16SPEAKER_03: because I was talking to her about going to the VA
- 37:22SPEAKER_03: and how I felt like I don't belong at the VA because I don't have the VFW hat
- 37:27SPEAKER_03: and I needed to get a VFW hat.
- 37:30SPEAKER_03: And that's when she started with me about,
- 37:32SPEAKER_03: well, you could go over there to get help with your paperwork too and this and that.
- 37:35SPEAKER_03: And she's like, well, where is there one?
- 37:37SPEAKER_03: And I looked it up and I was like,
- 37:38SPEAKER_03: oh my God, it is literally a mile and 1.2 miles from my house.
- 37:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you could almost walk there.
- 37:45SPEAKER_03: You could walk there, for God's sakes.
- 37:47SPEAKER_03: I wasn't such a fat fucking slug.
- 37:50SPEAKER_01: No, that'll help you in your journey of losing some weight.
- 37:54SPEAKER_01: I'm walking to and from the VFW hall.
- 37:57SPEAKER_01: Exactly, to eat pancakes.
- 37:58SPEAKER_01: Right, I'm having a pancake and a beer, then I'm going to walk back home.
- 38:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah, well, at least then I'd burn off some of the pancakes, I would imagine.
- 38:06SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 38:07SPEAKER_01: And you get a cheap beer over there.
- 38:10SPEAKER_01: I guess they have discounted beers or something.
- 38:12SPEAKER_01: Their beers are less expensive.
- 38:15SPEAKER_03: I like the sound of that.
- 38:16SPEAKER_03: And then if I get too fucked up, I could still get, I could, you know, Uber for about $3.
- 38:21SPEAKER_01: Or you could just, you could just wander, you know, stagger home.
- 38:26SPEAKER_01: Stagger home.
- 38:27SPEAKER_03: Exactly right.
- 38:28SPEAKER_03: So close.
- 38:31SPEAKER_01: There's that Chris Aiken guy again, staggering home.
- 38:34SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 38:35SPEAKER_03: Chris, you could read your books at the VFW.
- 38:37SPEAKER_03: Well, I guess I could.
- 38:40SPEAKER_03: Did I tell you that my book got pulled from Amazon?
- 38:43SPEAKER_01: Is that a surprise?
- 38:45SPEAKER_03: It's not a surprise.
- 38:46SPEAKER_03: I'm surprised it took that long.
- 38:48SPEAKER_03: Of course, the Korea book.
- 38:49SPEAKER_01: Oh, the Korean book?
- 38:50SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 38:51SPEAKER_03: The Korea book.
- 38:52SPEAKER_03: They finally figured out what it said on the cover, I guess.
- 38:56SPEAKER_01: Was that the reason?
- 38:57SPEAKER_03: They didn't give me a reason.
- 38:58SPEAKER_03: They just said it's no longer available in the store.
- 39:01SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 39:03SPEAKER_03: It's out of print.
- 39:05SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 39:07SPEAKER_03: So if you don't have one,
- 39:09SPEAKER_03: I probably have a few more here somewhere, but I'll get more printed somewhere else.
- 39:14SPEAKER_03: But yeah, they pulled it.
- 39:18SPEAKER_03: Not surprising.
- 39:20SPEAKER_03: I didn't realize it at all, really.
- 39:22SPEAKER_03: I was going because somebody had asked me to get an autographed one
- 39:26SPEAKER_03: and I didn't know where I had any here in the house.
- 39:29SPEAKER_03: So I went to order them, and they were like, sorry, this is out of print.
- 39:32SPEAKER_03: I was like, oh, fuck.
- 39:34SPEAKER_03: They don't tell you these things?
- 39:37SPEAKER_03: But, yeah.
- 39:39SPEAKER_03: Another censorship thing.
- 39:41SPEAKER_03: Probably.
- 39:42SPEAKER_03: I'm positive.
- 39:44SPEAKER_03: I mean, dude, the name of the book is Your Mother Has a Bald Pussy.
- 39:48SPEAKER_03: In Korean.
- 39:53SPEAKER_03: Yeah, in Korean.
- 39:56SPEAKER_03: I mean, I can still speak it, but I can still say the words.
- 39:59SPEAKER_03: I just can't sell those words anymore.
- 40:05SPEAKER_01: Well, if somebody were to tell me that, I'd go, sounds good to me.
- 40:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, right on, bro.
- 40:15SPEAKER_01: Stop tempting me with a good time.
- 40:17SPEAKER_03: That's right.
- 40:18SPEAKER_03: I watch MASH, too.
- 40:20SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 40:21SPEAKER_01: It's funny.
- 40:25SPEAKER_01: Speaking of books being pulled a few weeks ago, Mark Dice got one of his books pulled.
- 40:32SPEAKER_03: Oh, really?
- 40:33SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 40:35SPEAKER_01: Same place, Amazon?
- 40:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Amazon.
- 40:38SPEAKER_01: And so some popular podcaster picked up on it and started making a thing about it.
- 40:46SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 40:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 40:48SPEAKER_01: And Amazon came back and said, oh, this was just an oversight.
- 40:52SPEAKER_01: This was just a mistake.
- 40:53SPEAKER_01: It was an oversight.
- 40:56SPEAKER_01: And they relisted it and everything.
- 40:59SPEAKER_01: It's just like, yeah, this was just a clerical mistake.
- 41:03SPEAKER_03: I don't have it in me to fight with them.
- 41:06SPEAKER_03: I mean, that book came out, what, six, eight years ago?
- 41:09SPEAKER_03: Something like that.
- 41:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah, at least.
- 41:11SPEAKER_03: If you got it, you got it.
- 41:13SPEAKER_03: If you didn't, you didn't.
- 41:14SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 41:15SPEAKER_03: That's where I'm at with it right now.
- 41:17SPEAKER_03: Two thousand some odd ones of you did.
- 41:19SPEAKER_03: There's a new book coming out that I will have participated in.
- 41:24SPEAKER_03: The CMS book.
- 41:25SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 41:25SPEAKER_03: So you can buy that instead.
- 41:28SPEAKER_03: That's less likely to get pulled.
- 41:29SPEAKER_03: Although I don't know.
- 41:30SPEAKER_03: I don't know the stories you've told.
- 41:32SPEAKER_03: I've told some doosies.
- 41:35SPEAKER_01: Well, that's the whole idea is that it's from both of our perspectives.
- 41:39SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 41:40SPEAKER_01: You know, so that's what's going to be interested.
- 41:43SPEAKER_01: I'm interested in what you recall.
- 41:47SPEAKER_01: And what our guests who got interviewed will say about us.
- 41:56SPEAKER_01: So I guess our author or co-author caught up with Don this past week.
- 42:02SPEAKER_03: Okay, good.
- 42:03SPEAKER_01: And I guess he gave him quite a bit of time.
- 42:06SPEAKER_01: Oh, good.
- 42:07SPEAKER_01: Because Don likes to talk.
- 42:09SPEAKER_01: When he gets on a roll, he likes to talk.
- 42:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 42:12SPEAKER_01: So apparently he gave...
- 42:16SPEAKER_01: Our co-author, quite an earful.
- 42:20SPEAKER_03: So the book will be all Don with one paragraph by me and two by you.
- 42:25SPEAKER_01: I don't know what he said or anything,
- 42:27SPEAKER_01: but I'm looking forward to see what our friends have said about
- 42:32SPEAKER_01: the classic metal show.
- 42:34SPEAKER_01: That being,
- 42:35SPEAKER_01: of course,
- 42:35SPEAKER_01: Don and Stephen Percy and Nader the Priest and Jamie St.
- 42:40SPEAKER_01: James and Ron Keel and Chipsenov.
- 42:45SPEAKER_01: They've all participated in commentary on the book.
- 42:49SPEAKER_03: I'm just anxious to get it going just because I have brand new intros
- 42:53SPEAKER_03: and outros ready to go with the new logo.
- 42:56SPEAKER_03: I have them all built,
- 42:57SPEAKER_03: but I haven't used them because we haven't introduced that yet to the people,
- 43:03SPEAKER_03: but they're so much better than the garbage that I'm using now.
- 43:06SPEAKER_03: I just like them a whole lot better.
- 43:09SPEAKER_03: I need to send them to you.
- 43:10SPEAKER_03: I I should stop with that.
- 43:12SPEAKER_03: Well, I know Neely will like it.
- 43:13SPEAKER_03: Fuck, I don't care.
- 43:14SPEAKER_03: You know, I should actually send you some shit that I'm doing, but I think you'll like it.
- 43:19SPEAKER_01: It's kind of seizure inducing a little bit.
- 43:23SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 43:24SPEAKER_03: It's pretty cool.
- 43:25SPEAKER_03: I think it's cool.
- 43:27SPEAKER_03: And it's short.
- 43:28SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 43:28SPEAKER_03: it's much shorter than the one we currently have with the,
- 43:33SPEAKER_03: I call it the drum intro with the big drum and it's flipping around and all
- 43:37SPEAKER_03: that shit.
- 43:38SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 43:39SPEAKER_03: And, you know,
- 43:40SPEAKER_03: I actually stopped using that one about three months ago just because it's too long.
- 43:44SPEAKER_03: You know, it's by the time they get to the first segment, it's like already a minute in.
- 43:49SPEAKER_03: And I noticed from our stats that we're just losing half the audience
- 43:54SPEAKER_03: because they get in there and they see that long intro and they're like,
- 43:56SPEAKER_03: fuck this, I'm out.
- 43:58SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 43:59SPEAKER_03: So I shortened down to the one that I was using for best ofs for now,
- 44:04SPEAKER_03: just because I know we got new ones coming anyway.
- 44:07SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 44:09SPEAKER_03: Trying to grow this goddamn show a little bit.
- 44:11SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no shit.
- 44:12SPEAKER_01: After 30 years, it's about time we start growing this show.
- 44:15SPEAKER_03: Yeah, putting in a little effort finally.
- 44:19SPEAKER_01: Been on cruise control for 30 fucking years, but now it's
- 44:22SPEAKER_03: time to get going.
- 44:23SPEAKER_01: Right, because we don't want the dirt truck to get bigger than the classic metal.
- 44:28SPEAKER_01: That's right.
- 44:29SPEAKER_03: Well, they already are,
- 44:30SPEAKER_01: aren't they?
- 44:31SPEAKER_01: Because we're going to do some work with the Talking Metal guys.
- 44:33SPEAKER_03: Talking Metal, how'd that all work out?
- 44:38SPEAKER_01: That old clip that I pulled for the intro that just made me laugh.
- 44:42SPEAKER_01: We're going to work, do some work.
- 44:44SPEAKER_03: We're going to do some work.
- 44:45SPEAKER_01: And get bigger than the classic metal show.
- 44:48SPEAKER_01: Who?
- 44:53SPEAKER_01: Where did the rev go?
- 44:54SPEAKER_01: What happened to him?
- 44:56SPEAKER_01: I'm sure he's still out there doing something dumb.
- 44:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 45:00SPEAKER_01: What happened to his black metal coffee?
- 45:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah, coffee radio or whatever that shit was.
- 45:06SPEAKER_03: Whatever that was.
- 45:08SPEAKER_03: All these, he's going to break an unsigned band.
- 45:12SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 45:12SPEAKER_02: All right, bro.
- 45:14SPEAKER_03: Have at it.
- 45:15SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
- 45:18SPEAKER_03: Yeah, he was doing promotion for, that was the fun, because I would get those.
- 45:22SPEAKER_03: I guess he didn't realize that it was me and he kept me on his mailing list.
- 45:26SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 45:27SPEAKER_03: And every single time it was like just the worst bands.
- 45:31SPEAKER_03: It's like, hey, Disgusting Jesus is looking for press.
- 45:36SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 45:37SPEAKER_03: Oh, are they?
- 45:39SPEAKER_03: It's like just the worst fucking bands.
- 45:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 45:42SPEAKER_01: What was the name of his promotional thing?
- 45:44SPEAKER_01: Something.
- 45:45SPEAKER_01: Dark Black Coffee or something.
- 45:47SPEAKER_01: Black Coffee.
- 45:48SPEAKER_03: Black Coffee Stain or something.
- 45:50SPEAKER_03: I don't remember.
- 45:51SPEAKER_01: It was weird.
- 45:52SPEAKER_01: Just a weird thing.
- 45:53SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 45:53SPEAKER_03: Well, fits with everything else that Jake Bannerman did.
- 45:57SPEAKER_03: You know, with all his dumb books and everything.
- 46:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 46:04SPEAKER_01: Just a goofy guy.
- 46:05SPEAKER_03: Just a dork.
- 46:07SPEAKER_03: He is.
- 46:08SPEAKER_03: He's just a dork.
- 46:09SPEAKER_03: I'm looking.
- 46:12SPEAKER_01: I've got the desire, but no direction.
- 46:15SPEAKER_03: No.
- 46:15SPEAKER_03: And he's not good at it.
- 46:19SPEAKER_03: No.
- 46:19SPEAKER_03: I wonder how much he's used that education that he paid for for three years at
- 46:24SPEAKER_03: the School of Broadcasting.
- 46:26SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 46:27SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 46:27SPEAKER_03: he's probably still mopping floors at the local Denny's or whatever it was
- 46:31SPEAKER_03: that he was doing.
- 46:33SPEAKER_01: He got your cans on.
- 46:35SPEAKER_01: My cans.
- 46:36SPEAKER_01: You got your cans on.
- 46:38SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 46:38SPEAKER_01: Jesus.
- 46:40SPEAKER_01: You couldn't look across the room and see that you got his cans.
- 46:43SPEAKER_03: Well, it's because Ray was low because he was sitting in one
- 46:46SPEAKER_01: of those fucking outside chairs, lawn chair.
- 46:51SPEAKER_01: Lawn chair doing with his sandwich at his foot.
- 46:54SPEAKER_03: Yeah, exactly.
- 46:57SPEAKER_03: Keep it from sliding down in the chair by putting his foot on the sandwich.
- 47:01SPEAKER_03: Fucking Ray.
- 47:02SPEAKER_01: That
- 47:02SPEAKER_03: was so goofy,
- 47:03SPEAKER_01: man.
- 47:04SPEAKER_03: The best, though, was when Ray tried to do the show without the Rev.
- 47:09SPEAKER_03: As bad as the Rev was, Ray Solo was way worse.
- 47:14SPEAKER_01: And he had his chick with him, didn't he?
- 47:16SPEAKER_03: He had his chick with him, too.
- 47:17SPEAKER_01: Oof, that was so bad.
- 47:19SPEAKER_01: What did he call her?
- 47:20SPEAKER_01: Black Metal Princess or something like that?
- 47:22SPEAKER_03: I think the Black Metal Babe.
- 47:24SPEAKER_01: Black Metal Babe?
- 47:25SPEAKER_01: Wasn't she the Black Metal Babe?
- 47:27SPEAKER_01: Something like that.
- 47:28SPEAKER_01: It was just kind of weird.
- 47:30SPEAKER_01: But I think one of the funniest things,
- 47:33SPEAKER_01: among the many funny things we did was when he was announcing that they were going
- 47:39SPEAKER_01: to have a website and that they were going to get the domain name,
- 47:43SPEAKER_01: Beer Chicks and Politics.
- 47:45SPEAKER_01: And I logged into my GoDaddy account and snatched it right up immediately.
- 47:51SPEAKER_03: And within like a day, I had it pointed to Lemon Party.
- 47:56SPEAKER_03: Like you were like, put this somewhere.
- 47:58SPEAKER_03: I just remember you calling me the next morning.
- 48:01SPEAKER_03: You're like, can you make this go somewhere?
- 48:03SPEAKER_03: I was like, oh yeah.
- 48:04SPEAKER_03: Was it meat spin?
- 48:06SPEAKER_03: I think it was lemon party.
- 48:08SPEAKER_01: Was it lemon party?
- 48:09SPEAKER_03: I think it was because, I mean, neither is good.
- 48:13SPEAKER_03: But I mean, 80-year-old guys blowing themselves was so brutal.
- 48:18SPEAKER_03: And you're right.
- 48:19SPEAKER_03: Go ahead with your story because you'll remember the word for word a whole lot better than me.
- 48:24SPEAKER_01: But yeah, those crafty guys over there at the classic metal show.
- 48:29SPEAKER_01: And then he's got booze, news, and what was it?
- 48:33SPEAKER_01: Coups.
- 48:34SPEAKER_03: Booze, coups, and news.
- 48:39SPEAKER_01: Beer, chicks, and politics.
- 48:42SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 48:46SPEAKER_01: What a dork.
- 48:51SPEAKER_01: Just grab that domain up like right away.
- 48:54SPEAKER_03: Well, he was so dumb to just say it.
- 48:57SPEAKER_03: Like we couldn't do the same thing he did for $12.
- 49:01SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 49:02SPEAKER_03: It was worth it.
- 49:03SPEAKER_03: Look, we did so many fun things at that dude.
- 49:06SPEAKER_03: Remember, he couldn't stop kissing, what's her name, Maria from In This Moment's ass.
- 49:13SPEAKER_01: And we had Maria made a mean ID.
- 49:16SPEAKER_03: Well, I did a whole interview just to get the ID.
- 49:19SPEAKER_03: I didn't even want to interview her.
- 49:21SPEAKER_03: But I did a whole interview just to get the ID.
- 49:25SPEAKER_03: And the ID was, hey,
- 49:26SPEAKER_03: it's Maria from In This Moment,
- 49:28SPEAKER_03: and you're listening to the worst show on the internet, Dirt Talk.
- 49:33SPEAKER_03: And she's like, that sounds mean.
- 49:35SPEAKER_03: I was like, oh, no, no, it's just a joke.
- 49:37SPEAKER_03: And I literally went with that.
- 49:38SPEAKER_03: It's like Opie and Anthony, how they do the worst of.
- 49:40SPEAKER_03: I was like, same thing.
- 49:42SPEAKER_03: That's what we do here.
- 49:43SPEAKER_03: And she just rolled with it.
- 49:45SPEAKER_03: And then I just called it and left it on
- 49:49SPEAKER_01: his voicemail.
- 49:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he was all about in this moment.
- 49:53SPEAKER_01: He was all in on job for a cowboy.
- 49:56SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah, job for a cowboy too, yeah.

- 50:58SPEAKER_01: Just to get her to say you're listening to the worst show on the internet.

- 51:16SPEAKER_01: And, you know,
- 51:17SPEAKER_01: right along those lines,
- 51:19SPEAKER_01: you know, you making contact with Shadow Steel just so we could goof on him.
- 51:26SPEAKER_03: That was another one that was like, you know, I was like, I think I can get this guy.
- 51:35SPEAKER_03: And that's the only time in the history of the show where we purposely changed roles.
- 51:40SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 51:41SPEAKER_03: Because it was the only time in the show where I purposely was the good guy because he liked me.
- 51:50SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 51:51SPEAKER_03: You know, he liked me.
- 51:52SPEAKER_03: So it was like, okay, well,
- 51:54SPEAKER_03: if I'm the good guy and you come off with all the shit questions,
- 51:58SPEAKER_03: well, I can come right back.
- 52:00SPEAKER_03: You're amazing.
- 52:01SPEAKER_03: You're the best.
- 52:03SPEAKER_03: And I mean, your questions were fucking so outstanding.
- 52:06SPEAKER_03: I mean, it was.
- 52:08SPEAKER_01: Because I actually wrote them out.
- 52:10SPEAKER_01: Oh, it was so funny.
- 52:12SPEAKER_01: Just adding like a litany of facts to something.
- 52:16SPEAKER_03: About something that asked something totally different.
- 52:18SPEAKER_01: And asking a totally unrelated question.
- 52:21SPEAKER_01: Like I was leading up to something with all these things.
- 52:24SPEAKER_01: And I ask a question that has nothing to do with what I just talked about.
- 52:28SPEAKER_03: You're like, you're.
- 52:29SPEAKER_03: You broadcast for years out of Pittston, Pennsylvania.
- 52:32SPEAKER_03: Pittston with a population of 38,364.
- 52:35SPEAKER_01: Established in 1938 by, you know, blah, blah, blah.
- 52:40SPEAKER_03: Alligator pits or whatever, you know, like this whole thing.
- 52:42SPEAKER_03: And then you'd be like, Shadow, how do you feel about CB radio?
- 52:47SPEAKER_03: It was like, what the fuck are you doing?
- 52:50SPEAKER_03: And this guy would get,
- 52:51SPEAKER_03: remember he got so mad at you and then he wouldn't even say your name at the end.
- 52:55SPEAKER_03: He was like, I want to thank you, Chris.
- 52:57SPEAKER_01: He just kept ignoring me, kept trying to ignore me.
- 53:03SPEAKER_03: That was a fun one.
- 53:04SPEAKER_03: Dude, me and you,
- 53:05SPEAKER_03: that was one of those, as soon as he hung up, you and I just stayed on laughing.
- 53:11SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 53:11SPEAKER_03: For probably fucking 30 minutes, just laughing at how funny that shit was.
- 53:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 53:17SPEAKER_01: That was so good.
- 53:20SPEAKER_01: And he also was the traffic guy on the Scranton, Pennsylvania morning show, Rusty Fender.
- 53:29SPEAKER_01: Rusty Fender.
- 53:30SPEAKER_01: He was Rusty Fender.
- 53:31SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 53:34SPEAKER_01: Let's check in with traffic with Rusty Fender.
- 53:37SPEAKER_01: God, we had some fun with that dude.
- 53:39SPEAKER_01: Oh, my God.
- 53:40SPEAKER_03: Him and his bad podcast, Mad Pod.
- 53:43SPEAKER_03: Madpod.
- 53:44SPEAKER_03: Madpod.
- 53:45SPEAKER_01: What was his guy who did the intro for him?
- 53:49SPEAKER_03: I don't remember what his name was, but he had a good voice, but he wasn't any better.
- 53:56SPEAKER_03: No.
- 53:57SPEAKER_03: He would just turn it over to Shadow,
- 53:58SPEAKER_03: and Shadow would be like, today we are speaking with Sammy Hagar.
- 54:03SPEAKER_03: Sammy, you were born in 1942 in Elizabethtown, New Jersey.
- 54:10SPEAKER_03: Sammy, what is it like to join Van Halen?
- 54:14SPEAKER_01: It's like, what?
- 54:15SPEAKER_03: What?
- 54:19SPEAKER_01: Well, we cover some of that stuff in the upcoming book.
- 54:23SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 54:25SPEAKER_01: So I talked about that stuff in the book and made mention of a few of those things.
- 54:32SPEAKER_01: So just reliving some of the past silliness that both Chris and I have participated
- 54:40SPEAKER_01: in during the tenure of the show.
- 54:43SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 54:43SPEAKER_03: Well, Dirt Talk and Shadow Steel and Kay and Abby and even Talking Metal,
- 54:49SPEAKER_03: that was, I would say that was the heyday of the show.
- 54:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah, of course.
- 54:54SPEAKER_03: That was, I mean, we were on fire every show,
- 54:57SPEAKER_01: every second.
- 54:59SPEAKER_01: And any of the podcasts that you found on, what was that?
- 55:05SPEAKER_01: Blog Talk Radio.
- 55:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Blog Talk Radio.
- 55:08SPEAKER_01: There you are.
- 55:09SPEAKER_01: That was just a haven of goodness.
- 55:11SPEAKER_01: Blog talk, radio.
- 55:13SPEAKER_01: There was so much goodness going on.
- 55:15SPEAKER_01: You do it over your phone.
- 55:17SPEAKER_03: Yeah, because that's better.
- 55:19SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 55:19SPEAKER_03: And they'd get these guys, they'd be on, and they'd be on for like five minutes.
- 55:23SPEAKER_03: They'd be like, oh my God, 43 minutes to go.
- 55:25SPEAKER_01: And then, of course, we pissed off that guy, Big Mike.
- 55:29SPEAKER_03: Big Mike, yeah.
- 55:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 55:32SPEAKER_01: Talking about going to the movies and theater and trying to find the right seat and all that.
- 55:36SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 55:40SPEAKER_01: Well, if you've been a longtime listener of the CMS,
- 55:42SPEAKER_01: some of these stories might ring a bell with you.
- 55:46SPEAKER_03: If you follow us on Rumble or stuff, I've been moving a lot of that stuff over to Rumble.
- 55:50SPEAKER_03: So make sure you go look because a lot of that stuff is out there.
- 55:56SPEAKER_03: I've been moving.
- 55:56SPEAKER_03: I moved a Doro interview this week from 2012.
- 56:00SPEAKER_03: Wow.
- 56:02SPEAKER_03: It's like, man, how many interviews have we done with Doro?
- 56:06SPEAKER_03: Doro might be up there with Jeff Tate.
- 56:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah, well, she's been on the show at least eight, maybe ten times.
- 56:15SPEAKER_03: Yeah, she's been on a lot.
- 56:18SPEAKER_03: I mean, I've interviewed her just since the pandemic, I think five different times.
- 56:24SPEAKER_01: Really, that many?
- 56:25SPEAKER_03: Yeah, because she's always doing stuff.
- 56:28SPEAKER_03: Yeah, sure.
- 56:29SPEAKER_01: Well, you got to give it to her.
- 56:31SPEAKER_01: She's nonstop.
- 56:33SPEAKER_03: Yeah, she put out a god-awful song this week.
- 56:38SPEAKER_03: She did a cover of Go Your Own Way, the Fleetwood Mac song.
- 56:43SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 56:44SPEAKER_03: Her and Joel Holkstra.
- 56:47SPEAKER_03: Two people I like, and that's just...
- 56:51SPEAKER_01: Well, maybe we'll check it out later in the show.
- 56:53SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah.
- 56:54SPEAKER_03: We can definitely do it.
- 56:54SPEAKER_03: I got a lot of music to check out tonight, that's for sure.
- 56:57SPEAKER_01: Well, I'm glad you have a good list of things because I have been remiss this week
- 57:03SPEAKER_01: on having too many
- 57:03SPEAKER_03: notes to myself.
- 57:06SPEAKER_03: I got tons and tons and tons.
- 57:09SPEAKER_03: Alright.
- 57:11SPEAKER_01: Well,
- 57:12SPEAKER_01: I say we take a break and then we'll get into your tons and tons and tons of stuff
- 57:17SPEAKER_01: and stuff and stuff.
- 57:18SPEAKER_03: Alright.
- 57:19SPEAKER_01: Sounds good to me.
- 57:20SPEAKER_01: Alright.
- 57:21SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 57:22SPEAKER_01: Well, as always,
- 57:23SPEAKER_01: I will be playing your tunes that you request by way of the locals page on
- 57:28SPEAKER_01: the FastPass.
- 57:29SPEAKER_01: That's kind of a little thank you to the people who support us with your hard-earned bucks.
- 57:35SPEAKER_01: And you get to request a song on a Saturday night.
- 57:39SPEAKER_01: And I see there's quite a few requests in there already.
- 57:42SPEAKER_01: But lead the charge.
- 57:45SPEAKER_01: I will let Chris pick the song to get us going.
- 57:48SPEAKER_01: So what shall we play?
- 57:49SPEAKER_03: I'm going to go outside of even my normal box here a little bit,
- 57:53SPEAKER_03: just because this is the anniversary of me finding out about this.
- 58:00SPEAKER_03: I'm going with Eulogy from the band Tool, of course, from the Enema release.
- 58:06SPEAKER_03: And the reason I'm going with that is I was reminded this week
- 58:09SPEAKER_03: that this was like 10 years ago or whatever,
- 58:12SPEAKER_03: was when I first found out that Maynard James Keenan had referenced my review of
- 58:18SPEAKER_03: that record from Scene Magazine in his book.
- 58:21SPEAKER_03: Nice.
- 58:22SPEAKER_03: It's the most goofy thing ever.
- 58:23SPEAKER_03: It's like, you know, Matt Wardlaw sent that to me, sent me like a screenshot of it.
- 58:28SPEAKER_03: He's like, did you know that you were in Maynard's book?
- 58:31SPEAKER_03: And I looked and sure enough,
- 58:32SPEAKER_03: he had some quote about this is Thinking Man's Metal or something
- 58:35SPEAKER_03: that I had just said.
- 58:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I remember that.
- 58:38SPEAKER_03: And literally on the bottom of the page,
- 58:40SPEAKER_03: it's like reference Chris Aiken, Scene Magazine, whatever date.
- 58:43SPEAKER_03: I was like, wow, I fucking made it to a book.
- 58:47SPEAKER_03: It's pretty cool.
- 58:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 58:49SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 58:51SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 58:52SPEAKER_01: Well, we're going to jump into the tunes here.
- 58:54SPEAKER_01: So here's Tool with Eulogy exclusively here.
- 58:59SPEAKER_01: On your classic metal show.
