- 0:27SPEAKER_02: Hi, here's Chris Boldenow from Gravedigger and you are watching CMS TV and Bone Collector.
- 0:51SPEAKER_00: It is your Classic Metal Show right here on the Classic Metal Show.
- 0:55SPEAKER_00: Kicking off the show tonight, we heard Metal Church right there with some fake healer.
- 1:00SPEAKER_00: And from the Ride the Lightning release,
- 1:03SPEAKER_00: for whom the bell tolls and for whom the bell tolls,
- 1:07SPEAKER_00: that's a good question for my good friend and partner, Chris Akin.
- 1:09SPEAKER_00: What's going on there, Chris?
- 1:11SPEAKER_00: What is up, Chief?
- 1:11SPEAKER_00: How are we?
- 1:12SPEAKER_00: I'm well.
- 1:13SPEAKER_00: How's the new health habits going?
- 1:17SPEAKER_00: Are you doing well?
- 1:19SPEAKER_01: As far as, I guess that depends on what your exact definition is.
- 1:24SPEAKER_01: As far as sticking to it, yes, I am doing very well.
- 1:28SPEAKER_00: Well, that's important.
- 1:31SPEAKER_01: As far as feeling
- 1:32SPEAKER_03: better, I ain't going to lie.
- 1:34SPEAKER_03: I feel like shit tonight.
- 1:36SPEAKER_03: Why?
- 1:36SPEAKER_03: What's the problem?
- 1:38SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
- 1:38SPEAKER_03: I think I'm just kind of in a funk anyway tonight.
- 1:41SPEAKER_03: I just had a crappy week.
- 1:43SPEAKER_03: Oh.
- 1:44SPEAKER_03: You know, which I'll certainly share.
- 1:46SPEAKER_03: I mean, the biggest, the biggest crappy part of the week was, you know how I've talked for ages.
- 1:54SPEAKER_03: As long as I've been doing this show,
- 1:55SPEAKER_03: I've always talked about my one band that I was in, Distorted Illusion.
- 1:59SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:01SPEAKER_03: You know that from a million years ago.
- 2:02SPEAKER_03: Well, it was a band that was formed with a friend from high school,
- 2:08SPEAKER_03: a guy I didn't know,
- 2:10SPEAKER_03: but was a friend of another guy who was the brother, the younger brother.
- 2:14SPEAKER_03: Of two of my very, very close friends.
- 2:19SPEAKER_03: And he passed away this week, suddenly 48 years old, had a, had a stroke, had surgery.
- 2:28SPEAKER_03: They found another clot or something, went back in to get it.
- 2:32SPEAKER_03: Dunzo 48.
- 2:35SPEAKER_03: Just put me in a shit mood.
- 2:36SPEAKER_03: You know, it was a family friend and whatever.
- 2:38SPEAKER_03: So yeah, sure.
- 2:39SPEAKER_03: So, yeah, put me in a bad mood.
- 2:41SPEAKER_03: I've definitely not been Johnny Cheerful this week, to say the least, between that.
- 2:48SPEAKER_03: I was shucking my mom around for surgery this week, so there was that going on.
- 2:54SPEAKER_03: Even though that went fine, you know how that goes, man.
- 2:57SPEAKER_03: My mom's 78 years old.
- 2:58SPEAKER_03: Anytime she's getting cut on, you're hoping that she wakes up at the end of it.
- 3:02SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 3:02SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 3:03SPEAKER_03: I had that going on.
- 3:05SPEAKER_03: I had worky work stuff that wasn't the best.
- 3:07SPEAKER_03: Just a fucking garbage week.
- 3:09SPEAKER_03: I'm ready to do this show tonight, to say the least.
- 3:13SPEAKER_00: Well, it's your one reprieve from anything that's stressful.
- 3:17SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 3:18SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 3:19SPEAKER_03: And I mean, but as far as your question, I mean, I'm still...
- 3:23SPEAKER_03: Every single day,
- 3:24SPEAKER_03: I'm well under the calorie count that a fat fuck like me is allowed to get to,
- 3:28SPEAKER_03: which I still think is ridiculous.
- 3:32SPEAKER_03: A big fat fuck like me,
- 3:34SPEAKER_03: I've got to say it three times, 3,200 calories a day, which that's craziness.
- 3:43SPEAKER_00: Is that high or low?
- 3:45SPEAKER_03: Well, that's what they say I can do to be in the...
- 3:52SPEAKER_03: If I go over that, then I'm not healthy range.
- 3:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you're over eating.
- 3:59SPEAKER_03: But dude, 3,200 calories is a shit ton of calories.
- 4:03SPEAKER_00: Yeah, well,
- 4:04SPEAKER_00: they say that you got to have a certain amount of calories
- 4:09SPEAKER_00: that will cause your system to fire up more or less and start burning fat and
- 4:15SPEAKER_00: that kind of thing.
- 4:16SPEAKER_00: So I don't understand all the...
- 4:20SPEAKER_00: That goes into it, but I know about it.
- 4:23SPEAKER_00: I know that there's a certain amount of calories you need to take in
- 4:29SPEAKER_00: to not overdo it, but cause your system, your fire to burn, I guess.
- 4:35SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 4:35SPEAKER_00: And that's what it is, is keeping that fire burning.
- 4:39SPEAKER_03: Well, I'm trying to keep in the range of about 17 to 2,000.
- 4:45SPEAKER_03: That's kind of where I'm trying to stick.
- 4:48SPEAKER_03: And I've been doing it by cutting out bullshit and eating more fruit,
- 4:53SPEAKER_03: you know, a lot of pears, a lot of apples, a lot of that kind of shit.
- 4:57SPEAKER_03: And, you know, just trying to do it.
- 5:01SPEAKER_03: And so far it's where, I mean,
- 5:02SPEAKER_03: I was at the doctor Wednesday and I dropped another 10 pounds from two weeks ago
- 5:06SPEAKER_03: when I was at the doctor.
- 5:08SPEAKER_03: So, you know, I mean, it is working.
- 5:10SPEAKER_03: I will say it's working.
- 5:12SPEAKER_03: I ain't going to lie.
- 5:13SPEAKER_03: I get to this point of the night pretty much every night and I'm like,
- 5:19SPEAKER_03: I think I'm going to watch one-tenth of a movie before I go to sleep.
- 5:25SPEAKER_00: Well, one thing that you and I have not discussed as far as our appearance,
- 5:32SPEAKER_00: I guess, is we're going to have to get a photo for the book.
- 5:37SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 5:38SPEAKER_00: So getting in shape isn't a bad thing.
- 5:43SPEAKER_00: No.
- 5:45SPEAKER_03: Well, I'll be in great shape for the book photo.
- 5:47SPEAKER_03: Thank you, AI.
- 5:51SPEAKER_00: You're not going to put one of those goofy AI things on the book, are you?
- 5:56SPEAKER_00: Oh, yes, I am.
- 5:59SPEAKER_03: Why do you use those AI thumbnails?
- 6:02SPEAKER_00: Those look stupid.
- 6:03SPEAKER_03: I'm so tired of the fucking AI faggots.
- 6:06SPEAKER_03: I am so tired.
- 6:08SPEAKER_03: Dude, I get them everywhere.
- 6:09SPEAKER_03: I get them on... Obviously, we get them on the CMS all the time, these fucking cunts on YouTube.
- 6:14SPEAKER_03: Jesus Christ.
- 6:16SPEAKER_03: YouTube commenters are no better than Bitshoot,
- 6:20SPEAKER_03: which I always thought there could be no worse place in the world than Bitshoot
- 6:24SPEAKER_03: for comments.
- 6:25SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 6:26SPEAKER_03: And while the hate is definitely not...
- 6:30SPEAKER_03: Jew hating or black people hating like Bitchute.
- 6:34SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 6:35SPEAKER_03: It is just Chris and Neely hating.
- 6:38SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 6:38SPEAKER_03: They hate us.
- 6:41SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 6:42SPEAKER_00: Well, I wasn't aware we had such a fan base on Bitchute.
- 6:46SPEAKER_03: Well, Bitchute,
- 6:48SPEAKER_03: I actually,
- 6:49SPEAKER_03: and it's one of the rare times that I acted like a faggot
- 6:52SPEAKER_03: because I literally turned off the comments on Bitchute just because it was getting
- 6:58SPEAKER_03: to be like,
- 7:01SPEAKER_03: Overwhelmingly where I wasn't sure if what was being said was even legal.
- 7:05SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 7:06SPEAKER_03: So I was like, yeah,
- 7:07SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 7:07SPEAKER_03: there was a lot of,
- 7:08SPEAKER_03: there was a lot of threats and a lot of, a lot of shit being thrown out there.
- 7:13SPEAKER_03: So I just turned the comments off on that one,
- 7:16SPEAKER_03: but no, I'll leave them on YouTube because I really don't care.
- 7:19SPEAKER_03: You know, I mean,
- 7:20SPEAKER_03: if nothing else, the,
- 7:21SPEAKER_03: the locals people get a good kick out of fucking YouTube
- 7:25SPEAKER_03: because every single day I post another dummy saying something dumb on, on locals.
- 7:29SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 7:31SPEAKER_00: Here's your YouTube dummy update for the day.
- 7:34SPEAKER_03: It pretty much is the YouTube dummy of the day.
- 7:37SPEAKER_03: Every day there's one, if not two or three or four.
- 7:42SPEAKER_03: All right, Wretch, that's not right.
- 7:45SPEAKER_03: Wretch, you say Jew hating it like it's a bad thing.
- 7:50SPEAKER_03: Come on, Wretch.
- 7:50SPEAKER_03: You got to hate people for their character, not for whose dick they came out of.
- 7:58SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 7:59SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 8:02SPEAKER_00: For the behavioral.
- 8:03SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 8:05SPEAKER_03: You can hate people all you want, but you got to hate them one-on-one.
- 8:09SPEAKER_00: Just learn to hate correctly.
- 8:11SPEAKER_03: That's right.
- 8:12SPEAKER_03: Come on.
- 8:12SPEAKER_03: Let me teach you how to hate.
- 8:16SPEAKER_00: It's okay to hate.
- 8:17SPEAKER_00: Just make sure you hate correctly.
- 8:19SPEAKER_03: The only grouping you're allowed to do is anybody with pronouns, you can hate that group.
- 8:25SPEAKER_03: Anybody with blue hair, you can hate that group.
- 8:28SPEAKER_03: Anyone who wears a mask.
- 8:30SPEAKER_03: Well, you can just laugh at that group.
- 8:31SPEAKER_03: That's kind of like clowns.
- 8:34SPEAKER_03: You know, because they're such pussies, they're not worth your hatred.
- 8:36SPEAKER_00: You know,
- 8:37SPEAKER_00: I have to go through a neighborhood on my way into the office every day and I have
- 8:42SPEAKER_00: to pass an elementary school.
- 8:44SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 8:45SPEAKER_00: There are stupid kids,
- 8:47SPEAKER_00: little kids,
- 8:48SPEAKER_00: you know, first, second graders still walking to school outside wearing a mask.
- 8:55SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
- 8:57SPEAKER_00: They're outside
- 8:58SPEAKER_03: walking to school.
- 9:00SPEAKER_03: They were broken.
- 9:02SPEAKER_03: They were broken during COVID.
- 9:03SPEAKER_03: Now they don't know any better.
- 9:05SPEAKER_03: I think about it.
- 9:05SPEAKER_03: If you were a first grader and you had to wear a mask for a year,
- 9:08SPEAKER_03: that starts to be how you do it.
- 9:10SPEAKER_00: It's so bizarre to me to see kids out in the outdoors wearing a mask, walking to school.
- 9:18SPEAKER_00: Dude, A, I agree with you, but you can't blame the kids.
- 9:21SPEAKER_00: It's the fucking parents.
- 9:22SPEAKER_00: I'm not blaming the kids.
- 9:23SPEAKER_00: I just find it so odd that an adult would encourage that.
- 9:30SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 9:31SPEAKER_03: You would think that the parents would be like,
- 9:33SPEAKER_03: get that bullshit fucking diaper off your face, you stupid fuck.
- 9:37SPEAKER_00: Well, it's probably the mom who tells them,
- 9:39SPEAKER_03: don't forget to wear your mask.
- 9:41SPEAKER_03: Yeah, the mom probably puts hers on to kiss them goodbye.
- 9:44SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 9:44SPEAKER_03: Well, let me not give you a germ.
- 9:47SPEAKER_03: Here we go.
- 9:48SPEAKER_03: Don't forget to wear your mask.
- 9:50SPEAKER_03: Yeah, make sure you wear it.
- 9:52SPEAKER_03: Don't take it off at study hall either.
- 9:53SPEAKER_03: Don't get comfortable.
- 9:56SPEAKER_03: Don't get comfortable in there.
- 9:57SPEAKER_03: You could die.
- 10:01SPEAKER_00: It is stupid.
- 10:02SPEAKER_00: Especially when the kids were the least susceptible to contracting anything.
- 10:08SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 10:09SPEAKER_03: Well, it was dumb then.
- 10:11SPEAKER_03: It's dumber now.
- 10:12SPEAKER_00: I agree.
- 10:13SPEAKER_03: And now they're trying to gin that old gag up again.
- 10:16SPEAKER_03: And I think they're going to do that every fall.
- 10:20SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 10:20SPEAKER_03: Every fall, we're going to see a story or two that says, COVID's on the rise in Utah.
- 10:25SPEAKER_03: You guys better be prepared.

- 11:08SPEAKER_00: We won't get fooled again.
- 11:10SPEAKER_03: I don't...
- 11:11SPEAKER_03: Under this president, I don't think it'll happen.
- 11:14SPEAKER_03: I worry more two years from now when we get fucking AOC or whatever twat they put in there.
- 11:20SPEAKER_03: I'm more worried about that than I am now.
- 11:22SPEAKER_03: Under this president,
- 11:23SPEAKER_03: everybody will just double middle fingers in the air and be like, fuck you.
- 11:26SPEAKER_03: Dude, the best thing that could happen to us is that Donald Trump passes away
- 11:31SPEAKER_03: with like three months or whatever left on his head.
- 11:36SPEAKER_03: On his presidency so that somebody could get in there with a ton of sympathy like J.D.
- 11:42SPEAKER_03: Vance and just blow out the election because of
- 11:46SPEAKER_03: the sympathy will get every Republican out there to vote.
- 11:50SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 11:51SPEAKER_03: Not that I'm hoping for the president to die or anything like that,
- 11:54SPEAKER_03: but he'd be doing a favor to the party.
- 12:00SPEAKER_00: Well, since you mentioned about elections and so forth,
- 12:06SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 12:07SPEAKER_00: the gun guy,
- 12:08SPEAKER_00: the AK guy,
- 12:09SPEAKER_00: Brandon Herrera,
- 12:11SPEAKER_00: he's got a very good chance at winning his representative seat down in his district.
- 12:18SPEAKER_01: All right, good on him.
- 12:19SPEAKER_00: And I joined his campaign and donated to his campaign.
- 12:24SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 12:25SPEAKER_00: I threw a couple hundred bucks at him.
- 12:27SPEAKER_00: Bucks or bullets?
- 12:29SPEAKER_00: Well...
- 12:29SPEAKER_00: He's got bullets to spare as documents.
- 12:33SPEAKER_00: But no, I threw some bucks his way because he's got a very,
- 12:38SPEAKER_00: very, very good chance at winning that seat down there.
- 12:41SPEAKER_00: So, you know, I'd like to see that guy get in Congress.
- 12:45SPEAKER_03: That way, if the ick of Chicago drifts toward your neighborhood, you got someplace to move to.
- 12:51SPEAKER_00: Right, exactly.
- 12:52SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 12:53SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 12:53SPEAKER_00: So if you don't know who I'm talking about,
- 12:56SPEAKER_00: for all you 2A fans out there, his name is Brandon Herrera.
- 13:01SPEAKER_00: And he's known as the AK guy.
- 13:04SPEAKER_00: He does videos on YouTube and so on and so forth.
- 13:08SPEAKER_00: And he does videos every week.
- 13:10SPEAKER_00: I've been watching him for years.
- 13:12SPEAKER_00: And he demonstrates a new gun,
- 13:15SPEAKER_00: not a new gun,
- 13:16SPEAKER_00: but a different gun every week and talks about the background,
- 13:21SPEAKER_00: where it came from, who developed it.
- 13:24SPEAKER_00: He shoots it.
- 13:25SPEAKER_00: He'll take it apart, show you how it works, all that good stuff.
- 13:29SPEAKER_00: But he's really funny, too.
- 13:31SPEAKER_00: I mean, he's just a funny guy.
- 13:33SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 13:33SPEAKER_00: And...
- 13:35SPEAKER_00: He's got a serious run for his district as the representative down in,
- 13:42SPEAKER_00: I believe he's down in San Antonio area.
- 13:45SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 13:46SPEAKER_00: So if you want to look him up, look him up, Brandon Herrera for Congress.
- 13:51SPEAKER_03: So will there be 53-foot trucks rolling in there on Tuesday with ballots
- 13:57SPEAKER_03: that are already pre-cast?
- 13:59SPEAKER_03: Exactly.
- 14:00SPEAKER_03: Take him out?
- 14:01SPEAKER_00: Yeah, exactly.
- 14:03SPEAKER_00: Well, Pritzker,
- 14:05SPEAKER_00: the prick, who's an anti-2A governor of Illinois,
- 14:14SPEAKER_00: he's a nepotism trust fund baby.
- 14:16SPEAKER_00: His family's got buku bucks,
- 14:19SPEAKER_00: and I guess he just threw $20 million in to oppose people like Brandon Herrera.
- 14:28SPEAKER_00: $20 million?
- 14:29SPEAKER_00: $20 million.
- 14:30SPEAKER_01: If he wants to throw that at pinball PA, I'll wear a mask and oppose him with him.
- 14:34SPEAKER_01: Fuck that guy.
- 14:35SPEAKER_01: Fuck.
- 14:35SPEAKER_03: Nobody should have a gun.
- 14:39SPEAKER_00: But yeah, so that's what's going on.
- 14:42SPEAKER_00: Not that I'm getting into politics discussion here.
- 14:45SPEAKER_00: I just wanted people to know because I know we have a lot of people who listen to
- 14:49SPEAKER_00: the show who like their guns and Brandon is a two-way defender and he's a He seems
- 14:57SPEAKER_00: to be, and no pun intended, a straight shooter.
- 15:00SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 15:02SPEAKER_00: Well, both of your fine hosts here are definitely pro 2A, that's for sure.
- 15:06SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 15:08SPEAKER_00: So go Brandon.
- 15:10SPEAKER_00: And I don't mean the senile guy that almost ruined this country in four years.
- 15:16SPEAKER_00: Almost.
- 15:18SPEAKER_03: Dude, I'm still under the belief it's wrecked beyond fixing.
- 15:21SPEAKER_00: We're done.
- 15:22SPEAKER_00: It's wrecked beyond fixing.
- 15:23SPEAKER_03: Yeah, there's no fixing it.
- 15:25SPEAKER_03: It's over.
- 15:26SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 15:26SPEAKER_03: It's over.
- 15:27SPEAKER_03: It's done.
- 15:28SPEAKER_03: I'm just riding it out no matter what it's going to be.
- 15:31SPEAKER_03: Just ride to the end.
- 15:33SPEAKER_03: Because it's fucked.
- 15:35SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 15:35SPEAKER_03: I mean, do you see anything that used to be good potentially coming back?
- 15:40SPEAKER_03: No.
- 15:40SPEAKER_00: Anything.
- 15:40SPEAKER_00: But everything is cyclical.
- 15:42SPEAKER_00: I don't know that it'll cycle back in my time, but everything is cyclical.
- 15:47SPEAKER_00: Everything is.
- 15:48SPEAKER_03: I guess we could say advertising has gotten better recently.
- 15:51SPEAKER_00: Yeah, with all the Sidney Sweeney nakedness.
- 15:54SPEAKER_03: Oh.
- 15:55SPEAKER_03: Happy birthday to her, by the way, today would be her 29th birthday.
- 15:58SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 15:59SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 16:00SPEAKER_03: So I was talking about that a little bit in the chat room when we got started
- 16:05SPEAKER_03: and somebody said something about, you know, about me jerking off to Sidney Sweeney.
- 16:10SPEAKER_03: And of course I admitted to that one.
- 16:12SPEAKER_03: No shame in that game.
- 16:13SPEAKER_03: I mean, come on.
- 16:15SPEAKER_03: But then I went to the bastion of all knowledge, Grok,
- 16:19SPEAKER_03: and I asked it, who are the top 10 famous women that people are jerking off to?
- 16:25SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 16:25SPEAKER_03: Would you like to take a guess?
- 16:27SPEAKER_03: Let's see if you can name three of the 10.
- 16:30SPEAKER_03: And you can't say Sidney Sweeney because she is, of course, number one.
- 16:35SPEAKER_00: Are these current stars?
- 16:38SPEAKER_00: Fairly.
- 16:38SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 16:39SPEAKER_00: Are they newer or are they older?
- 16:41SPEAKER_00: Because I got to be honest with you.
- 16:42SPEAKER_00: I have no idea who's the hot ticket these days.
- 16:46SPEAKER_00: No idea.
- 16:46SPEAKER_00: Let's see.
- 16:47SPEAKER_03: There is one, two, three, four, five.
- 16:54SPEAKER_03: At least half of this list, you'll know their names.
- 16:57SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 16:58SPEAKER_03: They're not in the last five years.
- 17:00SPEAKER_03: They're at least 10 years of being famous or more.
- 17:03SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 17:04SPEAKER_00: So I'm going to throw a Scarlett Johansson in there.
- 17:06SPEAKER_00: She would be number two.
- 17:07SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 17:10SPEAKER_00: Let's see.
- 17:10SPEAKER_00: Who else would I throw in there?
- 17:13SPEAKER_00: Let me think.
- 17:17SPEAKER_03: That's the only one that comes to mind.
- 17:19SPEAKER_03: Well, I'll go from number 10 to number one.
- 17:22SPEAKER_03: 10 is a tie between Emilia Clarke and Gal Gadot,
- 17:26SPEAKER_03: who I know you probably don't know either of those.
- 17:29SPEAKER_00: No idea.
- 17:29SPEAKER_03: Number nine, you'll know Kim Kardashian, which I found that to be odd.
- 17:34SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I do find that odd.
- 17:36SPEAKER_03: I would have thought that Kylie Jenner would have been way up higher on that one.
- 17:41SPEAKER_03: You know, she's, you know, in the family and younger and does have a great set of tits.
- 17:46SPEAKER_03: That's for sure.
- 17:46SPEAKER_03: All right.
- 17:48SPEAKER_03: Number eight, Rihanna.
- 17:51SPEAKER_00: You know who that is.
- 17:51SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I know who that is.
- 17:53SPEAKER_00: That's the girl that Chris Brown beat up.
- 17:55SPEAKER_00: Beat up, right.
- 17:57SPEAKER_00: That's the only reason I know her.
- 17:58SPEAKER_03: Yeah, number seven, I cannot imagine jerking off to this little boy body, Zendaya.
- 18:05SPEAKER_03: No idea who that is.
- 18:07SPEAKER_03: She was in Euphoria.
- 18:08SPEAKER_03: She was Ru in Euphoria and was great.
- 18:10SPEAKER_03: I mean, she's a great actress, but yeah, she's built like a fucking fifth grader.
- 18:17SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 18:17SPEAKER_03: She has no tits, no ass, no nothing.
- 18:20SPEAKER_03: She's just, I cannot imagine jerking to that.
- 18:25SPEAKER_03: Number six, Sabrina Carpenter.
- 18:28SPEAKER_03: You don't know who
- 18:28SPEAKER_00: that is?
- 18:29SPEAKER_00: I do know.
- 18:29SPEAKER_00: She's a singer.
- 18:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 18:32SPEAKER_00: Blonde girl.
- 18:32SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 18:33SPEAKER_00: Looks kind of like Sandy Sweeney.
- 18:34SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 18:36SPEAKER_00: She wears like a lot of laundry on stage and stuff, doesn't she?
- 18:40SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 18:40SPEAKER_00: I know who that is.
- 18:41SPEAKER_03: Number five, I believe it, but.
- 18:45SPEAKER_03: It's clearly gay dudes that are jerking to this.
- 18:49SPEAKER_03: Taylor Swift.
- 18:52SPEAKER_00: She's not even hot.
- 18:53SPEAKER_03: She's not hot.
- 18:54SPEAKER_03: She's not hot at all.
- 18:55SPEAKER_03: No, I'm with you.
- 18:57SPEAKER_03: She is a supermarket six, if ever there was one.
- 19:01SPEAKER_03: She's as average as they come.
- 19:05SPEAKER_03: Number four, Anna DeArmas.
- 19:07SPEAKER_03: I get that one.
- 19:08SPEAKER_03: I know you don't know who that is.
- 19:09SPEAKER_03: No idea.
- 19:11SPEAKER_03: She's pretty hot.
- 19:13SPEAKER_03: Number three,
- 19:13SPEAKER_03: I would have thought you would have got because she's way high
- 19:16SPEAKER_03: on your celebrity jerk list.
- 19:18SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 19:19SPEAKER_03: Margot Robbie.
- 19:20SPEAKER_00: Yeah, she's.
- 19:22SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I just didn't think of it.
- 19:25SPEAKER_00: Obviously.
- 19:26SPEAKER_00: I mean, you know,
- 19:27SPEAKER_00: probably the best scene,
- 19:30SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 19:30SPEAKER_00: or the movie she was in where she was at her peak was the Wolf of Wall Street
- 19:34SPEAKER_03: when she was like 19 or whatever.
- 19:36SPEAKER_00: Yeah, she was top, top of the line
- 19:39SPEAKER_03: right there.
- 19:39SPEAKER_03: She was hot.
- 19:40SPEAKER_03: She's definitely hot.
- 19:42SPEAKER_03: Number two, Scarlett Johansson.
- 19:43SPEAKER_03: Number one, Sidney Sweeney.
- 19:44SPEAKER_03: So there's your top 10 jerkables.
- 19:47SPEAKER_00: Well, at least I know the top three.
- 19:50SPEAKER_00: Well, there you go.
- 19:51SPEAKER_00: That's good.
- 19:52SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 19:52SPEAKER_00: The other ones, not so much.
- 19:54SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 19:55SPEAKER_03: Kim Kardashian's probably the only other one that you could
- 19:57SPEAKER_00: pick out.
- 19:59SPEAKER_00: I wouldn't have picked her either.
- 20:01SPEAKER_00: I wouldn't have never picked her.
- 20:03SPEAKER_03: Ironically, if she hadn't sucked cock on film, she'd be the ugly duckling of her family.
- 20:09SPEAKER_03: Chloe's, well,
- 20:10SPEAKER_03: Chloe's kind of ugly too,
- 20:11SPEAKER_03: but the other one, Courtney's pretty hot and certainly the Jenner girl is hot.
- 20:18SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I don't know.
- 20:20SPEAKER_03: But whatever, I enjoyed Kim sucking Ray J's dick on film.
- 20:24SPEAKER_03: That was kind of fun.
- 20:27SPEAKER_03: I enjoyed watching it, I ain't gonna lie.
- 20:31SPEAKER_03: I wish more of these girls in this top 10 had porn leaks or whatever.
- 20:37SPEAKER_03: I'd watch them all.
- 20:40SPEAKER_03: I like a good celebrity porn.
- 20:42SPEAKER_03: Shit's always fun.
- 20:45SPEAKER_00: Well, I got to be honest with you.
- 20:48SPEAKER_00: I've never been enamored with celebrity,
- 20:51SPEAKER_00: you know, as far as like, you know, hotter than hot and all that kind of stuff.
- 20:56SPEAKER_00: You know,
- 20:57SPEAKER_00: the only one that,
- 20:58SPEAKER_00: you know, obviously my favorite of obvious has always been Susanna Hoffs.
- 21:02SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 21:03SPEAKER_00: But outside of that, I've never gone, oh my God, oh my God, you know.
- 21:08SPEAKER_00: And again, Sydney Sweeney caught my attention when she was in the Rolling Stones video.
- 21:15SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 21:16SPEAKER_00: And she did a great job in that video.
- 21:17SPEAKER_00: She was just fun.
- 21:19SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 21:20SPEAKER_03: I mean, she's in the same world as Pamela Anderson 30 years ago
- 21:27SPEAKER_03: and Marilyn Monroe 60 years ago or however many years ago that was.
- 21:33SPEAKER_03: Was that 60?
- 21:34SPEAKER_03: Maybe even longer now, right?
- 21:35SPEAKER_03: 60s.
- 21:37SPEAKER_03: How long was the 60s till today?
- 21:39SPEAKER_03: 40, 60 years ago, yeah.
- 21:41SPEAKER_00: Well, yeah, I was born in the 60s.
- 21:43SPEAKER_03: So Marilyn Monroe before her, maybe like, I don't know, Jane Mansfield or one of them?
- 21:49SPEAKER_03: Was she in that world?
- 21:51SPEAKER_00: Yeah, she was in the late 50s, early part of the 60s.
- 21:56SPEAKER_03: What about the broad that they threw off the boat or whatever, Natalie something?
- 22:00SPEAKER_00: Natalie Wood.
- 22:01SPEAKER_03: Natalie Wood.
- 22:01SPEAKER_03: Was she up there?
- 22:05SPEAKER_00: I mean...
- 22:07SPEAKER_00: She obviously made her
- 22:13SPEAKER_00: early debut in that Rebel Without a Cause with James Dean.
- 22:18SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 22:20SPEAKER_00: But yeah, again, she was an attractive girl, but she wasn't like a bombshell.
- 22:27SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 22:29SPEAKER_03: Was there any other ones in that time?
- 22:31SPEAKER_03: Was Jane Russell or whatever?
- 22:33SPEAKER_00: Well, Jane Russell was more 40s and 50s.
- 22:35SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 22:38SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 22:39SPEAKER_03: So not Tamey's widow, Hardy boy.
- 22:43SPEAKER_03: Jesus, that's very mean.
- 22:48SPEAKER_03: Unlike my comment, that was so nice.
- 22:56SPEAKER_03: Anyway, just a little sidetrack here,
- 23:00SPEAKER_03: just because the chat room got me looking up stuff immediately.
- 23:03SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 23:06SPEAKER_03: So what's going on in your week?
- 23:07SPEAKER_03: Anything good?
- 23:08SPEAKER_00: It's just been work.
- 23:09SPEAKER_00: That's it.
- 23:09SPEAKER_00: Work, work, work, work, and more work.
- 23:12SPEAKER_00: I mean, it's just been exhausting,
- 23:15SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 23:15SPEAKER_00: just keeping up with it because,
- 23:18SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 23:19SPEAKER_00: I've got several projects that,
- 23:23SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 23:24SPEAKER_00: everybody wants everything immediately,
- 23:26SPEAKER_00: you know, and, you know, the work that I do is custom fabrication.
- 23:31SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 23:32SPEAKER_00: And that just doesn't happen in a matter of hours.
- 23:35SPEAKER_00: You know, this is...
- 23:38SPEAKER_00: And so it's just dealing with the customers and their demands that I got
- 23:42SPEAKER_00: to have this by,
- 23:43SPEAKER_00: I got to have this by,
- 23:44SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 23:46SPEAKER_00: and it's,
- 23:46SPEAKER_00: you know, the expectation is somehow we're just going to produce what they need.
- 23:52SPEAKER_03: Like you're producing it with a 3D printer or something.
- 23:55SPEAKER_03: Exactly.
- 23:56SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 23:57SPEAKER_00: So, but yeah,
- 24:00SPEAKER_00: it's just,
- 24:00SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 24:00SPEAKER_00: it gets a little stressful from time to time and,
- 24:03SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 24:04SPEAKER_00: production is good and,
- 24:05SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 24:07SPEAKER_00: And again,
- 24:08SPEAKER_00: this time of the season, something about that sun moving just bums me out.
- 24:13SPEAKER_00: I don't know what it is,
- 24:14SPEAKER_00: but right when you get up around Labor Day,
- 24:19SPEAKER_00: it's a very dramatic shift in the mood for me, personally.
- 24:28SPEAKER_03: Wait till the fucking clock changes again, then it's really awful.
- 24:31SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 24:32SPEAKER_00: So you could just...
- 24:37SPEAKER_00: Feel the change coming in just a matter of days.
- 24:43SPEAKER_00: One day you're in August and the next thing you know you're halfway into September already.
- 24:48SPEAKER_00: It's just like, holy shit.
- 24:50SPEAKER_01: The only thing I'm looking forward to here in September is it cooling down.
- 24:54SPEAKER_01: It has been a bit hot this year.
- 24:57SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's been hot and rainy.
- 24:59SPEAKER_00: Lots of rain.
- 25:00SPEAKER_00: Lots of heat.
- 25:02SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm looking forward to A month or two of 50s.
- 25:07SPEAKER_03: That would be nice.
- 25:08SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 25:08SPEAKER_00: So anyway,
- 25:12SPEAKER_00: according to the predictions, though,
- 25:14SPEAKER_00: as far as like weather predictions,
- 25:16SPEAKER_00: if there's any credence to any of that with this,
- 25:21SPEAKER_00: they're calling it a very strong El Nino.
- 25:26SPEAKER_00: Apparently, the region that affects us, you and I, because we're almost parallel to each other.
- 25:33SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
- 25:34SPEAKER_00: We're not supposed to have very much of a winter at all.
- 25:37SPEAKER_00: Good.
- 25:39SPEAKER_00: No complaints here.
- 25:40SPEAKER_00: No, I'm not complaining about it.
- 25:42SPEAKER_00: I'm just,
- 25:42SPEAKER_00: according to the forecast,
- 25:45SPEAKER_00: it looks like we're just going to get rain for the most part because
- 25:49SPEAKER_00: the warm weather is going to be pushing north and we're going to be right in
- 25:54SPEAKER_00: the warmer climate ban through Indiana, Ohio, parts of Illinois, so on and so forth.
- 26:03SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 26:04SPEAKER_00: We'll see what happens.
- 26:05SPEAKER_03: Boy, will that suck.
- 26:09SPEAKER_03: It'll be terrible not to have to shovel a driveway three times a week.
- 26:14SPEAKER_03: That's going to be terrible.
- 26:15SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 26:16SPEAKER_00: But I'm just waiting for all the climate change alarmists to say, this isn't a normal winter.
- 26:22SPEAKER_00: This isn't normal.
- 26:23SPEAKER_00: There's something wrong here.
- 26:26SPEAKER_01: See, only six years left.
- 26:31SPEAKER_00: So I'll just enjoy the nice weather while it lasts.
- 26:34SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 26:36SPEAKER_03: I'm not complaining too bad.
- 26:37SPEAKER_03: I mean, I'm glad that the heat is coming down.
- 26:41SPEAKER_03: Although it got hot this week, too.
- 26:43SPEAKER_03: It was fucking like 89 degrees or something.
- 26:46SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 26:46SPEAKER_00: It was in the 80s here today, too.
- 26:48SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 26:50SPEAKER_03: It wasn't that hot here.
- 26:51SPEAKER_03: I think it was in like 75 at most.
- 26:54SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 26:55SPEAKER_03: Whatever.
- 26:56SPEAKER_03: And in other news, now that we're doing the weather channel today.
- 27:00SPEAKER_00: We're doing the,
- 27:02SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 27:02SPEAKER_00: we've got the highs over here and you're going to have a low pressure front coming
- 27:06SPEAKER_03: in here.
- 27:07SPEAKER_03: This El Nino, it's really going to change the wind patterns.
- 27:11SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 27:12SPEAKER_03: I'm going to tell you,
- 27:13SPEAKER_03: if you normally fly a kite,
- 27:14SPEAKER_03: you're going to have to move to a different place further west.
- 27:17SPEAKER_00: That's too funny.
- 27:18Fucking dumb.
- 27:21SPEAKER_00: I agree.
- 27:21SPEAKER_00: I agree.
- 27:22SPEAKER_00: I agree.
- 27:35SPEAKER_02: Stop scrolling, this is the one.
- 27:37SPEAKER_02: After five years, Plush is back.
- 27:40SPEAKER_02: The all-female power trio,
- 27:42SPEAKER_02: vocalist and guitarist Mariah Formica,
- 27:44SPEAKER_02: bassist Ashley Supa,
- 27:46SPEAKER_02: and drummer Faith Powell, Just dropped their first full length since 2021.
- 27:52SPEAKER_02: Mass hysteria is here.
- 27:54SPEAKER_02: Raw, loud, unapologetic.
- 27:57SPEAKER_02: The kind of record that hits like a live show in your chest.
- 28:01SPEAKER_02: Do not wait.
- 28:02SPEAKER_02: Click the link at the bottom of the screen or in the description.
- 28:06SPEAKER_02: And get it now.
- 28:09SPEAKER_01: Hi everyone, this is
- 28:11SPEAKER_02: Robin McCauley and you are watching CMS-TV.
- 28:30SPEAKER_00: So what's on the agenda for the next week for you?
- 28:34SPEAKER_00: Is it going to be a better week, hopefully?
- 28:36SPEAKER_03: I think so.
- 28:37SPEAKER_03: I mean, I've got stuff going on.
- 28:41SPEAKER_03: As dumb as this is going to sound,
- 28:44SPEAKER_03: I think part of the reason I had a bad week was
- 28:46SPEAKER_03: because I didn't do any interviewee type stuff.
- 28:50SPEAKER_03: I think having interviews to do every week kind of gets me up for the week.
- 28:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it kind of breaks up the monotony a little bit, gives you something to look forward to.
- 29:00SPEAKER_00: It prepares your brain a little bit to pick up some good questions.
- 29:04SPEAKER_03: And I didn't do any this week.
- 29:06SPEAKER_03: None.
- 29:07SPEAKER_03: Because I purposely didn't schedule shit because I knew I had to take my mom
- 29:12SPEAKER_03: for her surgery, so I didn't want to schedule anything on Tuesday.
- 29:16SPEAKER_03: Then on Wednesday,
- 29:17SPEAKER_03: I didn't know how long I was going to be with my doctor's appointments
- 29:21SPEAKER_03: because I had several on Wednesday, so I didn't book anything for Wednesday.
- 29:26SPEAKER_03: Then taking two days off of work,
- 29:27SPEAKER_03: I didn't want to schedule for Thursday and Friday because I figured I had to make up
- 29:31SPEAKER_03: for Tuesday and Wednesday, so I just didn't do any.
- 29:34SPEAKER_03: But I know this week I have at least four that I know of, and some of them are cool.
- 29:40SPEAKER_03: They're all cool,
- 29:40SPEAKER_03: but I'm interviewing Big Daddy Rich from Texas Hippie Coalition, who I love them.
- 29:47SPEAKER_00: Well, you should have a bill from your doctor saying,
- 29:52SPEAKER_00: remember the time I met you and you strangled my neck?
- 29:57SPEAKER_00: Well, here's the chiropractor bill that I have.
- 30:00SPEAKER_00: I've been waiting to talk to you about this.
- 30:02SPEAKER_00: I didn't want to sue,
- 30:04SPEAKER_00: but if you could maybe,
- 30:06SPEAKER_00: you know, fork over a couple of bucks this way to, you know, help me pay this bill.
- 30:11SPEAKER_03: I'll settle for a few free tickets, though.
- 30:14SPEAKER_03: That'd be good.
- 30:15SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 30:16SPEAKER_03: I'll take some free tickets.
- 30:18SPEAKER_03: But yeah, I'm interviewing him.
- 30:20SPEAKER_03: I'm interviewing Phil Sousan, which I'm looking forward to that.
- 30:24SPEAKER_03: What's my interview?
- 30:25SPEAKER_03: Steve Rosen, the guy that wrote the Tone Chaser book about Van Halen.
- 30:29SPEAKER_03: He has a new book about Jeff Beck,
- 30:32SPEAKER_03: who I know shit about,
- 30:33SPEAKER_03: but I'll figure out between now and Monday when I do that one.
- 30:37SPEAKER_00: I can just hear Jackal now.
- 30:39SPEAKER_00: You don't know about Jeff Beck?
- 30:41SPEAKER_00: Blasphemy.
- 30:43SPEAKER_00: You don't know anything about anything.
- 30:47SPEAKER_03: Dude, I hate to admit it.
- 30:49SPEAKER_03: But the only thing I know about Jeff Beck is like one song in the eighties
- 30:54SPEAKER_03: that he recorded with Rod Stewart.
- 30:57SPEAKER_03: Didn't he record like some guys have all the luck or one of those songs?
- 31:02SPEAKER_00: Well, he had the Jeff Beck group.
- 31:05SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but I didn't listen to that.
- 31:06SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 31:07SPEAKER_00: Well, that was, do I know
- 31:08SPEAKER_03: any of those songs?
- 31:09SPEAKER_03: Maybe.
- 31:11SPEAKER_03: Do you, what, what's a popular one?
- 31:13SPEAKER_00: Well, let's take a look here.
- 31:15SPEAKER_03: I have no idea what Jeff Beck does.
- 31:18SPEAKER_00: Did.
- 31:19SPEAKER_03: Oh, is he dead?
- 31:23SPEAKER_03: I do know he's dead.
- 31:24SPEAKER_03: I'm kidding.
- 31:28SPEAKER_00: Oh, you're funny.
- 31:32SPEAKER_03: I do understand that he died.
- 31:33SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 31:35SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 31:36SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that would be a great question.
- 31:37SPEAKER_03: So when's the last time you talked to Jeff?
- 31:40SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 31:40SPEAKER_00: How's Jeff doing these days?
- 31:42SPEAKER_00: I haven't heard anything from him in
- 31:44SPEAKER_03: a while.
- 31:45SPEAKER_03: He's really been out of the news for a while.
- 31:47SPEAKER_03: What's going on with him?
- 31:48SPEAKER_03: Is he sick?
- 31:53SPEAKER_00: That would be really, really funny
- 31:57SPEAKER_00: if you actually just
- 32:00SPEAKER_03: rolled with that.
- 32:01SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 32:04SPEAKER_00: Because I don't know if you know this, but Jeff Beck passed away.
- 32:10SPEAKER_00: What?
- 32:11SPEAKER_00: When did this happen?
- 32:14SPEAKER_01: What did he do?
- 32:15SPEAKER_01: Was people get ready him?
- 32:19SPEAKER_01: Him and Rod Stewart, maybe?
- 32:22SPEAKER_03: I really don't know shit about Jeff Beck.
- 32:27SPEAKER_03: Apparently, neither does Spotify.
- 32:30SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm looking.
- 32:31SPEAKER_00: Ice cream cakes.
- 32:33SPEAKER_03: Ice cream cakes?
- 32:34SPEAKER_00: I don't know that one at all.
- 32:36SPEAKER_00: Tonight, I'll be staying here with you.
- 32:38SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
- 32:39SPEAKER_03: I got to hear me some ice cream cakes.
- 32:42SPEAKER_00: Going down.
- 32:44SPEAKER_01: Is that a cover of the Motley team?
- 33:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I would never listen to this.
- 34:01SPEAKER_00: I believe Sam Kennison did a cover of that.
- 34:04SPEAKER_03: It's almost like the Black Crow stripped the suck out of that and turned it into a good sound.
- 34:10SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 34:11SPEAKER_03: That stinks.
- 34:13SPEAKER_00: Well, there you are.
- 34:14SPEAKER_00: That's one of the more popular ones.
- 34:16SPEAKER_03: Great.
- 34:17SPEAKER_03: And I know he was in the Yardbirds there, Jim.
- 34:19SPEAKER_03: I see him in there like that means something.
- 34:21SPEAKER_03: I'm not 100, Jim.
- 34:25SPEAKER_03: I don't remember the Yardbirds.
- 34:29SPEAKER_03: You know, I know who they are.
- 34:30SPEAKER_03: And to be honest, I don't like Eric Clapton either.
- 34:34SPEAKER_03: He was in the Yardbirds too, right?
- 34:36SPEAKER_03: So was Jimmy Page.
- 34:37SPEAKER_03: I like Jimmy Page.
- 34:39SPEAKER_03: Not from the Yardbirds, though.
- 34:41SPEAKER_00: Who the fuck cares?
- 34:42SPEAKER_00: He tried to launch the new Yardbirds, which became Led Zeppelin.
- 34:46SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that worked out all right.
- 34:48SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 34:49SPEAKER_03: I'd say.
- 34:51SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'll be ready by Monday.
- 34:53SPEAKER_03: I'll spend a good amount of time tomorrow headphoning it and getting my head around it.
- 34:58SPEAKER_00: Well, you better be doing your homework there, mister.
- 35:03SPEAKER_00: I don't need a subpar interview from you, sir.
- 35:06SPEAKER_00: So, Jeff Beck,
- 35:08SPEAKER_03: what's that like?
- 35:13SPEAKER_00: So you wrote a book about Jeff Beck.
- 35:15SPEAKER_00: So what's that like?
- 35:16SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 35:17SPEAKER_03: How many words is it?
- 35:22SPEAKER_00: Is there tape on book?
- 35:24SPEAKER_00: Or book on tape, rather?
- 35:27SPEAKER_03: That'd be great if I asked, what kind of paper did you use?
- 35:30SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 35:31SPEAKER_03: Just anything but questions about Jeff Beck.
- 35:35SPEAKER_03: Who did your cover art?
- 35:36SPEAKER_00: It's really good.
- 35:37SPEAKER_00: Does it come in hardback or is it glossy paperback?
- 35:42SPEAKER_03: That'd be so good.
- 35:44SPEAKER_03: So who are these people that you credited as,
- 35:46SPEAKER_03: you know, influences at the beginning of this book?
- 35:49SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 35:49SPEAKER_03: Just ask him anything but this.
- 35:50SPEAKER_03: That'd be great.
- 35:53SPEAKER_00: Can you cite your sources?
- 35:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, there
- 35:55SPEAKER_03: you go.
- 35:58SPEAKER_00: He says, I thought you were interviewing me about my book.
- 36:01SPEAKER_00: Well, I am.
- 36:01SPEAKER_00: I'm asking you questions about your book.
- 36:04SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 36:05SPEAKER_00: I'm asking questions about the book itself.
- 36:08SPEAKER_03: Is that a single stitch spine or a double?
- 36:10SPEAKER_03: I can't really tell from looking at it here.
- 36:16SPEAKER_00: Did you have any creative input on the marketing?
- 36:21SPEAKER_01: Who's the publisher
- 36:22SPEAKER_00: and what did they
- 36:22SPEAKER_03: give you?
- 36:26SPEAKER_03: Did you get an advance on this?
- 36:27SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 36:28SPEAKER_03: How much was it?
- 36:31SPEAKER_03: That would be funny if I just went,
- 36:33SPEAKER_03: didn't ask him one question about Jeff Beck,
- 36:35SPEAKER_03: just everything about the book manufacturing.
- 36:38SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 36:39SPEAKER_03: Did you consider going with Amazon self-publishing instead of going with a publisher?
- 36:43SPEAKER_03: Why?
- 36:44SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 36:44SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 36:47SPEAKER_00: Did Harper Collins come a calling?
- 36:52SPEAKER_03: Was it Harper or Collins that called you?
- 36:55SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 36:55SPEAKER_03: Or was it Simon and Schuster?
- 36:57SPEAKER_03: And which one?
- 36:58SPEAKER_03: Simon or Schuster?
- 36:59SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 37:01SPEAKER_03: Or is the last name Ann Schuster?
- 37:04SPEAKER_03: Not sure on that one.
- 37:05SPEAKER_00: Maybe it's Ann Schuster.
- 37:06SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it could be.
- 37:07SPEAKER_03: Simon Ann Schuster.
- 37:09SPEAKER_03: It's like one of those three names, like a serial killer.
- 37:13SPEAKER_03: Simon Ann Schuster.
- 37:19SPEAKER_03: That's pretty good.
- 37:24SPEAKER_00: Too good.
- 37:26SPEAKER_00: Well, speaking of books, we did get an update from our co-author today.
- 37:30SPEAKER_00: Yes, I saw that.
- 37:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 37:33SPEAKER_00: I'm deep into the book edit now, laughing my balls off at some of these stories.
- 37:41SPEAKER_00: I'll let you know a delivery date when I have one.
- 37:45SPEAKER_00: I'm not sure of the book length yet, but I estimate it between 50 to 60,000 words.
- 37:51SPEAKER_00: That's a pretty good book.
- 37:52SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so there you are.
- 37:54SPEAKER_02: I'm a big baseball fan.
- 37:56SPEAKER_02: It's always weird when you're watching baseball, especially on TV.
- 37:58SPEAKER_02: Between every pitch, they cut to somebody in the crowd watching a game.
- 38:03SPEAKER_02: Like, I'm already watching a game.
- 38:04SPEAKER_02: Why am I looking at somebody else watching a game?
- 38:08SPEAKER_02: I'm seeing the same thing.
- 38:09SPEAKER_02: That'd be like if you guys were at the game and they cut to me on my couch watching a game.
- 38:14SPEAKER_02: You're like, who's this asshole?
- 38:15SPEAKER_02: Why am I looking at him?
- 38:18SPEAKER_02: Imagine if I didn't know what a camera was on, I was in the middle of man-baiting, you know?
- 38:24SPEAKER_02: You guys are sitting, I'm like, wow, this guy must be a really big fan, damn.
- 38:29SPEAKER_02: He's jerked off to a double.
- 38:35SPEAKER_02: It's like the third inning of a MET game,
- 38:36SPEAKER_02: it's nothing, nothing, they cut to a woman praying in the crowd.
- 38:39SPEAKER_02: It's like, really, ladies, are we doing?
- 38:40SPEAKER_02: You're praying for a hit?
- 38:43SPEAKER_02: Man, we've got two wars going on.
- 38:44SPEAKER_02: Get your priorities straight here with your prayers.
- 38:46SPEAKER_02: I don't know, you think God's going to answer those prayers?
- 38:50SPEAKER_02: Because she's got the prayer hands up, so she means business.
- 38:54SPEAKER_02: Because according to the law, God's watching everybody at all times, right?
- 38:58SPEAKER_02: So he seems like he's pretty busy.
- 38:59SPEAKER_02: You know, he's probably got an assistant helping him out.
- 39:04SPEAKER_02: You know, an assistant goes up to hate God.
- 39:06SPEAKER_02: I hate to bother you, but it's a woman at the Met game.
- 39:11SPEAKER_02: Can't wait.
- 39:12SPEAKER_02: I cannot wait.
- 39:12SPEAKER_02: I'm looking forward to it.
- 39:15SPEAKER_02: Looking forward to it because to pull back the curtain a little bit.
- 39:32SPEAKER_00: Both Chris and I interviewed with our co-author separately,
- 39:37SPEAKER_00: so I don't know what Chris has said, and Chris doesn't know what I've said.
- 39:41SPEAKER_00: It's like a microcosm of the show.
- 39:44SPEAKER_00: Plus, there's interviews with Nader DePriest,
- 39:48SPEAKER_00: Jamie St.
- 39:48SPEAKER_00: James, who we had on the show, Stephen Piercy, Don Dockin, Chips Enough, Ron Keel.
- 39:58SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 39:59SPEAKER_00: So I don't know what any of those fine folks have said about us.
- 40:03SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 40:04SPEAKER_00: But we've had, you know, impactful relationships with all those guys.
- 40:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 40:10SPEAKER_00: And I just felt that they would be a good representation of some of
- 40:16SPEAKER_00: the music artists that the CMS has had impact with over the years.
- 40:24SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 40:25SPEAKER_00: And obviously, all of them are friends.
- 40:28SPEAKER_03: They are, definitely.
- 40:28SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 40:29SPEAKER_03: I'm looking forward to it, man.
- 40:31SPEAKER_03: It's going to be great.
- 40:32SPEAKER_03: I cannot wait until we actually have it.
- 40:36SPEAKER_03: Now it's like frustrating because it's like, you know, now it's like, let's go.
- 40:41SPEAKER_00: It's on the cusp.
- 40:43SPEAKER_03: Mm-hmm.
- 40:44SPEAKER_00: And I've hired Chip Ruggieri of Chipster PR to rep this book.
- 40:51SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 40:52SPEAKER_00: So, you know, I'm spending some coin on doing this book.
- 40:58SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I see you are.
- 40:59SPEAKER_00: So just know that if I even recoup the amount of money that I've spent to,
- 41:07SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 41:08SPEAKER_00: Hire our co-author as well as a PR firm and obviously the production of
- 41:14SPEAKER_00: the book itself.
- 41:18SPEAKER_00: I'll be glad if I break even.
- 41:20SPEAKER_00: I hope each and every one of you think about buying one.
- 41:28SPEAKER_00: That would be helpful, wouldn't it?
- 41:29SPEAKER_00: Yes, it would.
- 41:30SPEAKER_00: But I think having Chip represent us and having us do some interviews
- 41:35SPEAKER_00: with some radio shows and some podcasts and Various outlets will help that cause.
- 41:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I would think so.
- 41:45SPEAKER_00: So anyway, we're going top notch on this.
- 41:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we're not fucking around, pal.
- 41:51SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 41:52SPEAKER_03: We're not messing around, goddammit.
- 41:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, this isn't some amateur production at all.
- 41:59SPEAKER_00: This is all the top people in the business that are working with us.
- 42:03SPEAKER_01: Right on.
- 42:04SPEAKER_00: So that's,
- 42:06SPEAKER_00: it was important to me if I've spent 30 years of my life,
- 42:10SPEAKER_00: what's a few, you know, what's a few thousand bucks to not do it right.
- 42:18SPEAKER_01: Well, this is, this is why you didn't go and do anything all, all year.
- 42:21SPEAKER_01: So you save it up to pay for the book.
- 42:23SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 42:25SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 42:25SPEAKER_00: Well, I, I've got, I've got the money set aside, so that's not, not an issue.
- 42:29SPEAKER_00: It's just, uh,
- 42:31SPEAKER_00: I just wanted it done right,
- 42:33SPEAKER_00: and I want people to have a good product and a,
- 42:36SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 42:36SPEAKER_00: I want something to put a,
- 42:40SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 42:43SPEAKER_00: what's the term to put a,
- 42:47SPEAKER_00: not an exclamation point, but at least something to document
- 42:52SPEAKER_03: the career,
- 42:52SPEAKER_00: yeah.
- 42:53SPEAKER_00: There you go, to document the career or the legacy or the history of the show.
- 42:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 42:59SPEAKER_01: I just hope people buy it.
- 43:00SPEAKER_01: I hope you don't end up with fucking boxes of them in your closet.
- 43:05SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 43:07SPEAKER_00: Well, we'll make sure that it gets in the hands of the people who want it.
- 43:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's it.
- 43:12SPEAKER_00: And then the new logo is pretty cool, too.
- 43:14SPEAKER_03: Dude, I'm dying to use that.
- 43:16SPEAKER_03: I mean, I have intros and outros.
- 43:19SPEAKER_03: Because I know...
- 43:21SPEAKER_03: When we finally do pull the trigger on it,
- 43:25SPEAKER_03: I got to change everything,
- 43:27SPEAKER_03: literally,
- 43:27SPEAKER_03: because everything we do is with the recs that Kendall did,
- 43:33SPEAKER_03: and we're going to have to change everything.
- 43:36SPEAKER_03: So I'm way ready to start launching that stuff.
- 43:39SPEAKER_03: I've got intros and outros and everything ready to go.
- 43:43SPEAKER_03: All right.
- 43:44SPEAKER_00: Well, I think we could probably consider doing that in about a month.
- 43:50SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 43:50SPEAKER_01: That's fine.
- 43:51SPEAKER_00: You know, just as a run-up to the book.
- 43:55SPEAKER_00: That's fine.
- 43:57SPEAKER_00: So, yeah, that's good.
- 43:58SPEAKER_00: I mean, it's a logo for, you know, basically for the 30th anniversary.
- 44:05SPEAKER_00: You know, the logo that we currently use, it's not going away.
- 44:09SPEAKER_00: It's just that we have a commemorative logo that Chris McCarvel of Dokken was
- 44:17SPEAKER_00: so kind to do for us.
- 44:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it looks great.
- 44:21SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
- 44:22SPEAKER_00: So, once again, doing it the right way.
- 44:26SPEAKER_03: J-Rad, I will not be putting a dick print on your book.
- 44:32SPEAKER_03: Maybe if you pay extra.
- 44:33SPEAKER_03: I might.
- 44:34SPEAKER_03: Why not?
- 44:35SPEAKER_03: A dick print?
- 44:36SPEAKER_03: He said, I want Aiken to mushroom stamp my copy of the book.
- 44:42SPEAKER_03: I might.
- 44:43SPEAKER_03: I'll rub some ink on my dick and slap it on there.
- 44:46SPEAKER_03: Why not?
- 44:47SPEAKER_03: I don't give a shit.
- 44:50SPEAKER_03: Hey, what do I care?
- 44:51SPEAKER_03: That sounds kind of gay.
- 44:53SPEAKER_03: It is gay, but whatever.
- 44:55SPEAKER_03: He wants to be a faggot?
- 44:56SPEAKER_03: I'll faggotize him, I guess.
- 44:58SPEAKER_03: It's fine.
- 45:00SPEAKER_02: Look at this fag.
- 45:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no kidding.
- 45:04SPEAKER_01: Why not?
- 45:06SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 45:06SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm looking forward to it.
- 45:08SPEAKER_00: I'm getting excited.
- 45:09SPEAKER_00: There will be new shirts of, you know...
- 45:14SPEAKER_00: Commemorative shirts along with the book,
- 45:19SPEAKER_00: maybe some bumper stickers,
- 45:22SPEAKER_00: just some limited press, some limited run stuff that'll accompany the book.
- 45:28SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 45:28SPEAKER_00: So just coming up with some ideas here to put together a little package for
- 45:35SPEAKER_00: the people who are interested in such things.
- 45:39SPEAKER_01: I wouldn't mind getting some shot glasses.
- 45:42SPEAKER_01: Okay, let's do it.
- 45:42SPEAKER_03: That would make sense for this show.
- 45:44SPEAKER_03: Shot glasses and beer steins because our audience is all drunks anyway, so why not?
- 45:50SPEAKER_03: That's what they need.
- 45:52SPEAKER_00: You got to be drunk to listen to us.
- 45:54SPEAKER_03: That's right.
- 45:58SPEAKER_00: Well, we got some nice compliments from the people in the chat room today prior to
- 46:04SPEAKER_00: the show,
- 46:05SPEAKER_00: so they were very Complimentary about looking forward to listening to us every week.
- 46:11SPEAKER_00: So a hearty thank you to everybody who listens every week and looks forward to
- 46:16SPEAKER_00: the show and shows up, you know, an hour before the show even starts.
- 46:20SPEAKER_00: They start their own show without us.
- 46:25SPEAKER_00: That is just amazing to me, though, just to hear, you know, to see people showing up.
- 46:30SPEAKER_00: Oh, I know.
- 46:31SPEAKER_00: You know, before the show even starts.
- 46:33SPEAKER_00: CMS writers.
- 46:36SPEAKER_00: And they stick around for the entire show.
- 46:38SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 46:40SPEAKER_03: Dude, I'm looking at everybody in the chat room offering up what we should make with merch.
- 46:45SPEAKER_03: CMS bong, CMS bathwater.
- 46:49SPEAKER_00: CMS bathwater.
- 46:52SPEAKER_03: CMS rolling papers.
- 46:55SPEAKER_03: CMS lighters, CMS koozies, CMS canned hams.
- 47:02SPEAKER_00: Does anybody use koozies?
- 47:05SPEAKER_00: I never see anybody use those.
- 47:07SPEAKER_03: I think I have one in my entire house and I've never used it.
- 47:11SPEAKER_03: I have a Motorhead one from when they sent us the Motorhead beer.
- 47:16SPEAKER_03: And I've never once used it, I don't think.
- 47:19SPEAKER_03: CMS pajamas.
- 47:21SPEAKER_03: We do have CMS sweats.
- 47:24SPEAKER_03: They're actually quite cool, actually.
- 47:28SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 47:29SPEAKER_03: CMS condoms, just kidding, we don't use them.
- 47:32SPEAKER_03: There were CMS condoms.
- 47:34SPEAKER_03: Let me see if I have one on my desk.
- 47:36SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you did make a limited run of those.
- 47:38SPEAKER_03: I did have a limited batch of CMS condoms.
- 47:40SPEAKER_03: I don't have any here.
- 47:42SPEAKER_00: A CMS butt plug.
- 47:43SPEAKER_03: Oh, here it is.
- 47:45SPEAKER_03: Here it is.
- 47:45SPEAKER_00: A CMS, look at that.
- 47:50SPEAKER_03: There's the CMS condom right there.
- 47:52SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 47:52SPEAKER_00: It's got the old logo on it.
- 47:54SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it does.
- 47:54SPEAKER_03: That's how long ago it was.
- 47:56SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 47:57SPEAKER_00: It's probably, if you open that up, it'll probably come out in powder.
- 48:02SPEAKER_00: It'll be dust.
- 48:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 48:06SPEAKER_03: CMS dildo?
- 48:08SPEAKER_00: Jesus.
- 48:09SPEAKER_00: CMS do-rag?
- 48:15SPEAKER_01: Hey, I'm game for all of it.
- 48:16SPEAKER_01: Why not?
- 48:19SPEAKER_01: I'll put my face right on the tip of the CMS dildo dick.
- 48:23SPEAKER_01: I don't care.
- 48:26SPEAKER_03: Just knowing that some woman has stuff in my face and their pussy is good enough for me.
- 48:31SPEAKER_03: It's good enough.
- 48:32SPEAKER_00: That's funny.
- 48:34SPEAKER_03: Would I trust that condom?
- 48:36SPEAKER_03: Not now.
- 48:36SPEAKER_03: It's been here for 15 years,
- 48:39SPEAKER_03: but when I got them made, I got them made from a legitimate condom company.
- 48:43SPEAKER_03: Yeah,
- 48:44SPEAKER_00: it would be dust.
- 48:46SPEAKER_03: Well, let's see.
- 48:48SPEAKER_01: I'll open it.
- 48:48SPEAKER_00: Well, don't ruin it.
- 48:50SPEAKER_00: Don't open it.
- 48:51SPEAKER_00: Who cares?
- 48:52SPEAKER_00: Well, because it's the only one you have, right?
- 48:54SPEAKER_00: No, I got them somewhere.
- 48:56SPEAKER_00: I could order more.
- 48:58SPEAKER_00: I know, but it's just kind of cool to have the original.
- 49:02SPEAKER_03: I love that I wrote on it, fucking jizz bag.
- 49:09SPEAKER_03: That's funny.
- 49:10SPEAKER_03: Fucking jizz bag.
- 49:13SPEAKER_03: I guess I was saying that a lot 15 years ago or whatever.
- 49:17SPEAKER_00: How about a, well, there you go, Brian from Tennessee, CMS bookmark for the new book.
- 49:24SPEAKER_03: What are we, 10?
- 49:26SPEAKER_03: We need a bookmark.
- 49:27SPEAKER_03: When is the last time you used a bookmark?
- 49:30SPEAKER_03: I mean, honestly, have you used a bookmark in your adult life?
- 49:36SPEAKER_00: No, I never have.
- 49:37SPEAKER_03: Yeah, CMS grape drank for the Swedes, maybe.
- 49:41SPEAKER_00: Grape drank.
- 49:45SPEAKER_03: I like this idea, the CMS shut the fuck up gym mug.
- 49:49SPEAKER_03: I like that idea a lot.
- 49:53SPEAKER_00: That might be the best idea of all the merch stuff on here.
- 49:56SPEAKER_00: That's kind of a tip of the hat to the big Lebowski.
- 50:00SPEAKER_00: Shut the fuck up, Donnie.
- 50:02SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 50:02SPEAKER_03: I watched,
- 50:03SPEAKER_03: speaking of movies that I generally don't like,
- 50:05SPEAKER_03: but I try to like, I watched Pulp Fiction today.
- 50:08SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 50:09SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 50:10SPEAKER_03: Still don't like it.
- 50:11SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 50:12SPEAKER_01: Dude, I don't know what it is about that movie.
- 50:14SPEAKER_01: I mean, there's parts that I like, but there's too many parts that I don't like.
- 50:20SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 50:20SPEAKER_03: it just kind of, like,
- 50:24SPEAKER_03: why does Bruce Willis kill John Travolta in the middle of the movie,
- 50:28SPEAKER_03: but then he's alive till the end?
- 50:31SPEAKER_00: That's the whole movie.
- 50:32SPEAKER_00: It's out of sync.
- 50:34SPEAKER_00: You have to watch it for what it is because it's current story,
- 50:40SPEAKER_00: then there's a backstory,
- 50:41SPEAKER_00: then it gets back to the current story, and then to the backstory.
- 50:44SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I needed to do probably a couple of gummies and then watch it maybe, but...
- 50:51SPEAKER_03: I just don't get it.
- 50:53SPEAKER_03: I tried.
- 50:54SPEAKER_03: I mean, I tried today.
- 50:56SPEAKER_03: I saw it was coming on.
- 50:58SPEAKER_03: I was watching Godfather 3.
- 51:01SPEAKER_03: Again, I was in a real fucking rut movie-wise today.
- 51:04SPEAKER_03: But I watched Godfather 3, and then it came on right after it.
- 51:08SPEAKER_03: And I was like, you know what?
- 51:09SPEAKER_03: I am going to sit here, and I am going to watch this fucking movie.
- 51:12SPEAKER_03: And God damn it, I'm going to find a reason to enjoy this fucking movie.
- 51:17SPEAKER_03: And I watched it, and I just, I mean, there's a couple laughs in it.
- 51:20SPEAKER_03: There's a couple, you know, when he's like, oh, Kahuna Burger.
- 51:24SPEAKER_03: That whole scene is funny.
- 51:28SPEAKER_03: This is a tasty burger.
- 51:30SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 51:32SPEAKER_00: You mind if I have your Sprite?
- 51:34SPEAKER_00: What's in this?
- 51:36SPEAKER_00: Sprite.
- 51:36SPEAKER_00: Good.
- 51:37SPEAKER_00: You mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash this down?
- 51:42SPEAKER_03: I mean, there's funny moments.
- 51:44SPEAKER_03: I'm not going to lie.
- 51:45SPEAKER_03: There are funny moments in it.
- 51:46SPEAKER_03: But overall, as a movie, not for me.
- 51:49SPEAKER_03: I'll take the Kill Bills over it.
- 51:51SPEAKER_03: And I like Tarantino a lot.
- 51:53SPEAKER_03: I really do.
- 51:54SPEAKER_03: But, you know, I like the Grindhouse thing that he did, you know, Death Proof.
- 51:58SPEAKER_03: And what was the other one called?
- 52:01SPEAKER_03: Do you remember?
- 52:03SPEAKER_03: I liked it so much I don't remember the fucking name,
- 52:05SPEAKER_03: so I guess that kind of blows that out of the water.
- 52:09SPEAKER_03: But Death Proof was the one with, what's her name, Rose McGowan with the gun leg.
- 52:16SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I got to be honest with you.
- 52:18SPEAKER_00: I don't think I've seen that one.
- 52:19SPEAKER_03: Yeah, not bad.
- 52:20SPEAKER_03: I mean, it was okay.
- 52:21SPEAKER_03: I mean, I like Kurt Russell's in it, too.
- 52:25SPEAKER_00: Well, the wretch says we should have a CMS Royale with cheese.
- 52:29SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 52:31SPEAKER_00: Royale with cheese.
- 52:35SPEAKER_03: Yeah, like that whole thing with the metric system, whatever.
- 52:39SPEAKER_03: That's right.
- 52:40SPEAKER_03: The metric system.
- 52:41SPEAKER_03: One smart motherfucker.
- 52:43SPEAKER_03: That's right.
- 52:45SPEAKER_01: CMS panties?
- 52:46SPEAKER_01: Come on.
- 52:49SPEAKER_03: They won't make them big enough for our audience.
- 52:53SPEAKER_00: Oh, that's an interesting thing that you just said.
- 52:56SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 52:58SPEAKER_00: So last night, So I,
- 53:00SPEAKER_00: on Friday,
- 53:01SPEAKER_00: typically on Friday,
- 53:02SPEAKER_00: I go to,
- 53:02SPEAKER_00: there's a place right down the street here from me that I've been going down there
- 53:06SPEAKER_00: since the weather has been nice and a good friend of mine bartends.
- 53:10SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 53:11SPEAKER_00: His name is Russell.
- 53:12SPEAKER_00: He's a big two-way guy.
- 53:13SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 53:14SPEAKER_00: Talk about guns and all kinds of stuff.
- 53:17SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 53:18SPEAKER_00: Anyway, we walk in there and of course, you know, as guys do, we talk about chicks.
- 53:25SPEAKER_00: My comment is, Everywhere I look, chicks are just fat.
- 53:34SPEAKER_00: I rarely see an attractive woman.
- 53:36SPEAKER_00: No matter where I go, I rarely see an attractive woman anymore.
- 53:43SPEAKER_00: It's an oddity when you see one.
- 53:46SPEAKER_03: Well, it's because we spent the last 15 years or whatever not body shaming.
- 53:52SPEAKER_03: That's why.
- 53:54SPEAKER_03: We told,
- 53:55SPEAKER_03: even with the advertising and everything,
- 53:57SPEAKER_03: we told all these chicks,
- 53:58SPEAKER_03: it's like, oh, well, you can be fat and wear Victoria's Secret.
- 54:01SPEAKER_03: Guys still love that.
- 54:03SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 54:04SPEAKER_03: Guys love a 300-pound fucking chick in lingerie from Victoria's Secret.
- 54:10SPEAKER_00: Yeah, there's nothing like a 300-pound woman in a thong.
- 54:16SPEAKER_03: No, it's fantastic.
- 54:18SPEAKER_03: But now we're starting to get back.
- 54:19SPEAKER_03: I would imagine two or three years from now, you're going to see hotter chicks.
- 54:23SPEAKER_03: Because right now you got Sydney Sweeney and Sadie Sink and all these,
- 54:28SPEAKER_03: you know, all these really hot chicks doing hot ads again.
- 54:33SPEAKER_03: Like, you know, they're done with the fatties.
- 54:37SPEAKER_03: They're done with the your body,
- 54:40SPEAKER_03: your choice bullshit that they were trying to convince us to say,
- 54:43SPEAKER_03: oh yeah, that's wonderful.
- 54:45SPEAKER_03: I love seeing a hot, sweaty black girl in a thong.
- 54:48SPEAKER_03: That's fantastic.
- 54:52SPEAKER_03: They're done with that.
- 54:54SPEAKER_00: Did you see what happened to Nike?
- 54:57SPEAKER_00: What, their stock going to shit?
- 54:58SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they got delisted.
- 55:00SPEAKER_00: Well, they should.
- 55:04SPEAKER_00: Their market share dropped by 78%.
- 55:06SPEAKER_00: Well, look at everything that they support.
- 55:10SPEAKER_00: That's my point.
- 55:12SPEAKER_00: They lost their entire...
- 55:16SPEAKER_00: Value because of all the stupid shit that they're doing.
- 55:19SPEAKER_00: The Colin Kaepernicks and the fat black women and, you know, workout gear.
- 55:24SPEAKER_00: LeBron James.
- 55:25SPEAKER_00: And the Dylan Mulvaney wearing women's workout clothes and shit like that, you know?
- 55:32SPEAKER_00: And everybody said, I'm not going to wear that stuff.
- 55:34SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 55:34SPEAKER_00: And it's just like, fuck you people.
- 55:37SPEAKER_00: I'm not wearing Nike anymore.
- 55:39SPEAKER_03: And it is a shame because I ain't going to lie.
- 55:41SPEAKER_03: I wore Nike shoes for years.
- 55:43SPEAKER_03: Well, yeah, that was the...
- 55:46SPEAKER_03: That was the standard.
- 55:47SPEAKER_03: That was the brand.
- 55:47SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 55:48SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 55:49SPEAKER_03: I had Nike white high tops forever.
- 55:51SPEAKER_03: And I had a pair of Jordans.
- 55:53SPEAKER_03: I had, I had an original Jordan air ones, you know, way, way, way, way back in the day.
- 56:00SPEAKER_03: I had those,
- 56:01SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 56:02SPEAKER_03: cause even what's funny is when you think about that now,
- 56:04SPEAKER_03: cause I remember when,
- 56:06SPEAKER_03: when I got them,
- 56:06SPEAKER_03: my mom took me to buy them when I was like 15 years old or whatever.
- 56:10SPEAKER_03: And they were like 150 bucks.
- 56:13SPEAKER_03: And at that time, that was like $10 million.
- 56:17SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that was a lot of money for a pair of shoes.
- 56:20SPEAKER_03: Going from the Payless Shoe Store where you get 14 pairs of shoes for $30
- 56:27SPEAKER_03: to one pair, $120 or $150 or whatever it was.
- 56:33SPEAKER_03: But I remember I had to have them.
- 56:35SPEAKER_03: I definitely had to have those Nike Airs, the Jordans, Jordan Air 1s.
- 56:41SPEAKER_03: When they came out, I, I, and I wore the shit out of them and they look goofy as hell.
- 56:45SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 56:45SPEAKER_03: I'd be wearing,
- 56:47SPEAKER_03: honestly,
- 56:47SPEAKER_03: they did look goofy with the,
- 56:49SPEAKER_03: the red and black, like they were all black with the red swooshes.
- 56:53SPEAKER_03: They looked stupid on,
- 56:54SPEAKER_03: on like,
- 56:55SPEAKER_03: if you're wearing a pair of jeans or something,
- 56:57SPEAKER_03: they just look dumb, but it didn't matter.
- 56:59SPEAKER_03: Cause they were, you know, they were, they were Air Jordans.
- 57:03SPEAKER_03: And then you remember all that at the beginning and people were getting robbed
- 57:06SPEAKER_03: and getting their shoes stolen.
- 57:08SPEAKER_00: They were getting their shoes stolen.
- 57:10SPEAKER_00: They were getting their track suits stolen.
- 57:14SPEAKER_03: And then Korn ruined it by making Adidas like an equal partner in the, in the silliness.
- 57:21SPEAKER_03: So then everybody was wearing Adidas for a while or run DMC as well with the Adidas
- 57:27SPEAKER_03: and then Korn switched to Puma.
- 57:30SPEAKER_03: So then all the Korn fans switched to Puma and I was right there with all that
- 57:34SPEAKER_03: because I was a fucking fad jumping fag too.
- 57:39SPEAKER_03: I had all three of those brands worth of shoes and I bought all three based on celebrity.
- 57:45SPEAKER_03: Not even going to lie about it and say I didn't.
- 57:48SPEAKER_03: I definitely bought my Jordans based on watching Michael Jordan play basketball.
- 57:53SPEAKER_03: I definitely bought my first pair of Adidas with my Kango hat when fucking Run DMC came out.
- 58:00SPEAKER_03: And I definitely bought the Pumas when corn switched from Adidas to Puma.
- 58:05SPEAKER_03: I definitely bought that shit.
- 58:08SPEAKER_03: So the marketing worked for a while.
- 58:11SPEAKER_03: Ain't working anymore for Nike, though.
- 58:13SPEAKER_03: Nope.

- 58:53SPEAKER_00: But it's amazing that such a massive brand.
- 58:58SPEAKER_00: Just went to shit.
- 58:59SPEAKER_00: Just went right down the toilet.
- 59:00SPEAKER_03: Yeah, they did.
- 59:02SPEAKER_00: They went right to shit.
- 59:03SPEAKER_00: Holy shit.
- 59:04SPEAKER_00: I saw that and I was just like, Jesus Christ.
- 59:07SPEAKER_00: I saw a whole retrospective of what,
- 59:09SPEAKER_00: you know, what basically what a majority of the downfall was.
- 59:14SPEAKER_00: And they showed the Colin Kaepernick's.
- 59:17SPEAKER_00: They showed the Dylan Mulvaney's.
- 59:19SPEAKER_00: They showed the, you know, overweight women.
- 59:23SPEAKER_00: You know, wearing sports clothes and all that other stuff.
- 59:26SPEAKER_00: And it just killed the brand because they were so bought into the whole woke nonsense.
- 59:34SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 59:35SPEAKER_01: It might come back, too.
- 59:36SPEAKER_01: That's the saddest part.

- 59:40SPEAKER_03: when Trump ain't in office anymore,

- 59:45SPEAKER_03: You are going to see a hard push again.
- 59:48SPEAKER_00: Go from make America great again to make us fags again.
- 59:51SPEAKER_00: Make America gay again.
- 59:53SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 59:54SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 59:55SPEAKER_00: Granimal.
- 59:56SPEAKER_00: Shut up, J.R. All right.
- 1:00:01SPEAKER_00: I think we've yapped enough about nonsense.
- 1:00:05SPEAKER_00: Yeah, about nothing.
- 1:00:06SPEAKER_00: We covered a bunch of nonsense.
- 1:00:08SPEAKER_00: We didn't talk about anything of any significance.
- 1:00:11SPEAKER_00: Nope.
- 1:00:11SPEAKER_00: And we filled the whole hour with nothing but nonsense.

- 1:03:42SPEAKER_00: Just before that, we heard Tony Iommi with Yorn.

- 1:04:03SPEAKER_00: So a block of British metal.
- 1:04:06SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 1:04:07SPEAKER_00: So there you go.
- 1:04:09SPEAKER_00: Good stuff.
- 1:04:09SPEAKER_00: I like it.
- 1:04:10SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:04:10SPEAKER_00: All of it.
- 1:04:11SPEAKER_00: All of it.
- 1:04:11SPEAKER_00: Good British metal.
- 1:04:13SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 1:04:17SPEAKER_00: My nephew, Joel, texts me.
- 1:04:22SPEAKER_00: He was listening to the first segment,
- 1:04:24SPEAKER_00: and you had mentioned the fact that there was a rash of people stealing shoes
- 1:04:30SPEAKER_00: and things.
- 1:04:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:04:32SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he said that he had a, what did he say here?
- 1:04:35SPEAKER_00: He says he had some Reebok pumps.
- 1:04:40SPEAKER_00: Okay, yeah.
- 1:04:41SPEAKER_00: And they got stolen.
- 1:04:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:04:44SPEAKER_03: That was the dumbest concept of all time, too.
- 1:04:47SPEAKER_03: Pump it up like it did anything.
- 1:04:48SPEAKER_01: It just made your fucking shoes tighter.
- 1:04:50SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you just made the landing a little softer.
- 1:04:54SPEAKER_01: Did it, though?
- 1:04:56SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 1:04:56SPEAKER_00: I never owned any, but I remember it had that little button on the heel and pump it up.
- 1:05:02SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I had a pair.
- 1:05:05SPEAKER_03: I was a shoe guy for a while.
- 1:05:07SPEAKER_03: I really was.
- 1:05:08SPEAKER_03: I hate to admit that I was because that's such a fucking fruity thing to be.
- 1:05:12SPEAKER_03: But I was definitely a shoe guy for a while.
- 1:05:16SPEAKER_00: It's Chris Marcos.
- 1:05:18SPEAKER_01: Dude, let me just tell you,
- 1:05:19SPEAKER_01: in Korea especially, they had all the knockoffs, but they were good knockoffs.
- 1:05:25SPEAKER_01: So it was like a rebork instead of a Reebok, you know, or whatever.
- 1:05:30SPEAKER_01: I bought and sent home, no lie, 200 pairs of shoes.
- 1:05:37SPEAKER_00: Really?
- 1:05:38SPEAKER_00: Because they were so cheap.
- 1:05:40SPEAKER_00: I don't think I've owned 200 pairs of shoes in my entire life.
- 1:05:44SPEAKER_03: Dude, they were like $3 a pair.
- 1:05:48SPEAKER_03: And I would send them home.
- 1:05:49SPEAKER_03: And they were shit.
- 1:05:51SPEAKER_03: But I sent them to everybody I knew.
- 1:05:54SPEAKER_03: Because everybody I knew.
- 1:05:55SPEAKER_03: None of my friends could afford Air Jordans or whatever.
- 1:05:59SPEAKER_03: But I sent them some Air Jorgans or whatever.
- 1:06:02SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:06:03SPEAKER_03: Eric Jorgens.
- 1:06:04SPEAKER_03: You know, or Trolex watches and stuff.
- 1:06:07SPEAKER_03: That was another thing I sent a bunch home of was
- 1:06:10SPEAKER_01: fake Rolexes.
- 1:06:11SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:06:12SPEAKER_01: But it was because you could buy them down in the Ville for $3 to $5.
- 1:06:18SPEAKER_01: So you'd go into a shoe store and you'd find something that just looked cool
- 1:06:22SPEAKER_01: and it said Nike on the side.
- 1:06:23SPEAKER_01: You didn't care if it was Nike or not.
- 1:06:25SPEAKER_01: You knew it wasn't.
- 1:06:26SPEAKER_01: Right, of course.
- 1:06:27SPEAKER_03: But you just bought them.
- 1:06:28SPEAKER_03: So I bought them for all my friends.
- 1:06:30SPEAKER_03: And then once I had been there about a year,
- 1:06:32SPEAKER_03: I was like, well,
- 1:06:33SPEAKER_03: I better send some home for myself because there was actually a rumor
- 1:06:37SPEAKER_03: that went around that when you change stations,
- 1:06:42SPEAKER_03: they call it ETS,
- 1:06:43SPEAKER_03: when you ETS that you couldn't take more than X number of pairs of shoes.
- 1:06:50SPEAKER_03: So I started mailing them home.
- 1:06:52SPEAKER_03: And I remember when I got home the first time,
- 1:06:54SPEAKER_03: like I went home before I went to Arizona and my mom had a closet
- 1:07:01SPEAKER_03: that was just filled to the top of the closet with boxes.
- 1:07:06SPEAKER_03: And all of the boxes were shoes, track suits, and tuxedos.
- 1:07:12SPEAKER_03: Like I had bought three or four tuxedos because
- 1:07:16SPEAKER_01: you could get them tailor-made
- 1:07:17SPEAKER_01: and whatever for like $25 or whatever.
- 1:07:19SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:07:21SPEAKER_03: One of these weeks, maybe even in the next segment, I'll go get my tuxedo.
- 1:07:26SPEAKER_03: I had the white Steve Perry tux jacket, but of course I wore it all the time.
- 1:07:34SPEAKER_03: I didn't just keep it as a tuxedo.
- 1:07:36SPEAKER_03: I wore it when I was out in the middle or whatever.
- 1:07:39SPEAKER_00: Yes, you just wore it as part of your attire.
- 1:07:42SPEAKER_03: And, and I had all my friends sign it and it has blood stains all over it from
- 1:07:47SPEAKER_03: when I was fighting.
- 1:07:48SPEAKER_03: Like both, I'll, I'll get it next segment.
- 1:07:51SPEAKER_03: I'll, I'll get that jacket and bring it in here and show you.
- 1:07:54SPEAKER_03: But literally like the cuffs are covered with blood from me fighting all the
- 1:08:01SPEAKER_00: goddamn time.
- 1:08:02SPEAKER_00: You fought in your jacket?
- 1:08:04SPEAKER_00: Fuck yeah.
- 1:08:04SPEAKER_00: I didn't care.
- 1:08:05SPEAKER_00: I was surprised you didn't rip it.
- 1:08:08SPEAKER_00: It fit.
- 1:08:08SPEAKER_00: It was custom.
- 1:08:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I know.
- 1:08:11SPEAKER_00: But even if you're moving quickly, you rip out the seam around the shoulder or whatever.
- 1:08:17SPEAKER_00: It's good craftsmanship, man.
- 1:08:19SPEAKER_00: Apparently so.
- 1:08:20SPEAKER_00: Could withstand a fight or three.
- 1:08:24SPEAKER_00: You could get into a fisticuffs and not spoil the suit.
- 1:08:28SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:08:29SPEAKER_03: But it's like my favorite of all my Korea stuff,
- 1:08:32SPEAKER_03: it's my favorite thing that I actually brought back with me just because All
- 1:08:37SPEAKER_03: of my friends,
- 1:08:38SPEAKER_03: you know, at some point I was like, I don't want to forget any of these people.
- 1:08:41SPEAKER_03: So I had them signing it with a black marker.
- 1:08:45SPEAKER_03: So from top to bottom, it's signed with, you know, bullshit.
- 1:08:49SPEAKER_03: A lot of it is like you're a fucking dick or whatever, but who cares?
- 1:08:53SPEAKER_03: It's my favorite collectible of anything that I have.
- 1:08:57SPEAKER_00: You're like a walking stuffed animal.
- 1:08:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah, pretty much.
- 1:09:00SPEAKER_00: Remember that was a thing, too, where some people sign your stuffed animal.
- 1:09:05SPEAKER_03: Your stuffed animal.
- 1:09:05SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I remember that, too.
- 1:09:07SPEAKER_03: I was never that gay.
- 1:09:09SPEAKER_00: Yeah, well, that's a chick thing.
- 1:09:10SPEAKER_00: That was a chick thing.
- 1:09:11SPEAKER_00: That was a girl thing.
- 1:09:12SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that was two steps before Beanie Baby collection.
- 1:09:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah, or signing your cast.
- 1:09:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I never got to signing your cast.
- 1:09:25SPEAKER_01: I never wanted anybody to sign my cast.
- 1:09:28SPEAKER_00: I've never broke a bone, so I've never
- 1:09:29SPEAKER_00: had a cast.
- 1:09:31SPEAKER_01: I've had casts on both hands or both wrists.
- 1:09:35SPEAKER_03: I broke this hand and this wrist.
- 1:09:40SPEAKER_03: And the worst part is when everybody goes to sign it, what's the first thing they do?
- 1:09:44SPEAKER_03: They grab it.
- 1:09:46SPEAKER_03: Like they grab it to pull it toward them and it fucking hurts.
- 1:09:49SPEAKER_03: It's like, why are you grabbing that shit?
- 1:09:51SPEAKER_03: You want to sign it?
- 1:09:52SPEAKER_03: Sign it.
- 1:09:54SPEAKER_03: Then I started to, you know, well, I honestly haven't had a cast in forever.
- 1:09:58SPEAKER_03: Now I get those.
- 1:09:59SPEAKER_03: Even when I did break, I broke this hand about five years ago.
- 1:10:03SPEAKER_03: And when I broke it, I didn't even, they wanted to cast it.
- 1:10:06SPEAKER_03: And I was like, just give me the fucking, you know, the strap one.
- 1:10:10SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:10:11SPEAKER_01: And I wore the strap one around for a while and it healed.
- 1:10:13SPEAKER_00: You wore a strap on.
- 1:10:14SPEAKER_01: Well, yeah, I wore that too.
- 1:10:16SPEAKER_01: A small dick, man.
- 1:10:17SPEAKER_01: I needed a strap on.
- 1:10:23SPEAKER_03: So funny.
- 1:10:24SPEAKER_03: Fuego, Chris is the gayest straight person I've ever encountered.
- 1:10:28SPEAKER_03: It's true.
- 1:10:30SPEAKER_03: I did a lot of faggy things.
- 1:10:31SPEAKER_03: I'm not going to lie.
- 1:10:32SPEAKER_03: Look, most people wouldn't admit to it.
- 1:10:34SPEAKER_03: I just don't care.
- 1:10:37SPEAKER_03: It is what it is.
- 1:10:38SPEAKER_00: Well, but you had an agenda with your reason you did things.
- 1:10:45SPEAKER_00: You didn't do it out of sincerity because you were truly interested in a lot of the things.
- 1:10:50SPEAKER_00: You did it just for the... Chicks.
- 1:10:54SPEAKER_00: Yeah, just for the impetus behind it was just trying to appeal to the girls.
- 1:11:00SPEAKER_03: And that's so true.
- 1:11:01SPEAKER_03: All the music, a lot of that music...
- 1:11:04SPEAKER_03: There's a reason that I know every song from Adamant and The Romantics
- 1:11:09SPEAKER_03: and Corey Hart and Pick Your Favorite Fruity Band from the 80s.
- 1:11:15SPEAKER_03: And it was because the girls liked that stuff.
- 1:11:17SPEAKER_03: I'm 16 years old.
- 1:11:19SPEAKER_03: You get a girl in your car,
- 1:11:20SPEAKER_03: 90% of those girls in 1985 did not want to hear Van Halen or Motley Crue
- 1:11:27SPEAKER_03: or whatever.
- 1:11:29SPEAKER_03: They wanted to hear Purple Rain.
- 1:11:33SPEAKER_03: They wanted to hear...
- 1:11:34SPEAKER_03: You know, I'm walking on sunshine, yeah.
- 1:11:39SPEAKER_03: That's what they wanted to hear.
- 1:11:40SPEAKER_00: Katrina and the waves.
- 1:11:41SPEAKER_03: Yeah, and I would have all that stuff in my car just for that purpose.
- 1:11:47SPEAKER_03: I make no bones about it.
- 1:11:48SPEAKER_03: I'm not even embarrassed about it.
- 1:11:50SPEAKER_03: Got me a lot of blowjobs in that car by knowing fucking Never Surrender by Corey Hart.
- 1:11:58SPEAKER_03: And singing it, just being in the car going...
- 1:12:01SPEAKER_03: Just a little more time before.
- 1:12:04SPEAKER_03: The girl's like, oh, I love that you love that song.
- 1:12:08SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah, I sure do.
- 1:12:10SPEAKER_00: Boy in a box.
- 1:12:13SPEAKER_03: He was so good.
- 1:12:14SPEAKER_03: He was lousy.
- 1:12:16SPEAKER_03: I saw him in concert.
- 1:12:18SPEAKER_03: I think it was him in the romantics, actually, down at Music Hall.
- 1:12:22SPEAKER_03: What I like about you.
- 1:12:24SPEAKER_03: You hold me tight.
- 1:12:27SPEAKER_03: I hear the secrets that you keep.
- 1:12:31SPEAKER_03: When you're talking in your sleep.
- 1:12:33SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:12:35SPEAKER_03: They sucked.
- 1:12:36SPEAKER_03: They were bad.
- 1:12:37SPEAKER_03: Adam Ant was bad, too.
- 1:12:38SPEAKER_03: I know a lot of people liked Adam Ant.
- 1:12:40SPEAKER_03: I hated Adam Ant.
- 1:12:42SPEAKER_03: You know, that whole goody-two, goody-two, goody-goody-two shoes.
- 1:12:49SPEAKER_03: God.
- 1:12:51SPEAKER_03: That's right, Wretch.
- 1:12:52SPEAKER_03: How fast did those guys come?
- 1:12:57SPEAKER_03: Pretty darn fast, man.
- 1:12:59SPEAKER_03: I used to be a black man until that cum fucking stained my face.
- 1:13:03SPEAKER_01: Bet you didn't know that.
- 1:13:08SPEAKER_03: Cut that for a clip, whoever.
- 1:13:14SPEAKER_03: That's funny.

- 1:14:31SPEAKER_01: run that one.
- 1:14:32SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 1:14:33SPEAKER_00: Well, as,
- 1:14:34SPEAKER_00: as I've referenced on the show,
- 1:14:37SPEAKER_00: probably since,
- 1:14:38SPEAKER_00: since I've been doing the show is my fandom and appreciation for my childhood hero,
- 1:14:44SPEAKER_00: evil Knievel.
- 1:14:46SPEAKER_00: Now, I know a lot of fans who listen to the show probably can relate.
- 1:14:51SPEAKER_00: And, you know,
- 1:14:51SPEAKER_00: he was such a huge,
- 1:14:53SPEAKER_00: bigger-than-life icon of the 70s that anybody in our age range,
- 1:14:59SPEAKER_00: everybody knows the name Evel Knievel.
- 1:15:01SPEAKER_00: Even to this day, you know, they know Evel Knievel.
- 1:15:05SPEAKER_00: He just set the precedent for superhero, you know, as a living, breathing human superhero.
- 1:15:12SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:15:13SPEAKER_00: So, anyway, I've often referenced him during the show and so on and so forth.
- 1:15:20SPEAKER_00: Well, this past Thursday, was it Thursday?
- 1:15:24SPEAKER_00: Yeah, the 8th, September the 8th, was the 52nd anniversary of the Snake River Canyon Jump.
- 1:15:33SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 1:15:35SPEAKER_00: And we have a fan who sent us an email this week talking about that, being that it is the...
- 1:15:44SPEAKER_00: It was the 52nd anniversary of the Snake River Canyon jump where he took
- 1:15:50SPEAKER_00: the sky cycle and blasted out over the canyon and the parachute blew out on takeoff.
- 1:15:58SPEAKER_00: Even though he made it successfully across to the other side,
- 1:16:01SPEAKER_00: the wind was so heavy that it blew him back to the opposite side of the canyon
- 1:16:06SPEAKER_00: and he landed in the rocks along the river.
- 1:16:09SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 1:16:10SPEAKER_00: So...
- 1:16:14SPEAKER_00: Our CMS fan here, what's his name?
- 1:16:17SPEAKER_00: Chris Hurley.
- 1:16:19SPEAKER_00: Chris Hurley sent us an email.
- 1:16:21SPEAKER_00: He said,
- 1:16:22SPEAKER_00: for consideration on the first segment Saturday,
- 1:16:25SPEAKER_00: CMS fan Chris Hurley writes,
- 1:16:28SPEAKER_00: wanted to get yours and maybe even Neely's thoughts if possible for this one.
- 1:16:34SPEAKER_00: Someone recently posted the yearly anniversary of Evil Knievel's Snake River Canyon jump.
- 1:16:39SPEAKER_00: My older brother has always thought that it was all one big magic trick.
- 1:16:44SPEAKER_00: Evil was never in the rocket when it launched.
- 1:16:47SPEAKER_00: He knew that the rocket was never going to make it over
- 1:16:50SPEAKER_00: and he would have most certainly died in the river.
- 1:16:53SPEAKER_00: So instead,
- 1:16:54SPEAKER_00: they did some camera tricks,
- 1:16:57SPEAKER_00: shot B-roll of him climbing in before the edit, quote, cutaway for the launch.
- 1:17:03SPEAKER_00: Next time you see him, he's in a chopper, safe and sound.
- 1:17:07SPEAKER_00: No footage of him climbing out of the crashed rocket.
- 1:17:11SPEAKER_00: David Copperfield did a Direct ripoff of the same stunt going over Niagara Falls
- 1:17:16SPEAKER_00: with him sliding out on a platform already on the chopper for the big reveal.
- 1:17:22SPEAKER_00: I mean, really, even if he cleared the canyon, how was that thing going to land?
- 1:17:27SPEAKER_00: Like some big lawn dart?
- 1:17:29SPEAKER_00: Not buying it.
- 1:17:31SPEAKER_00: The more I thought about it over the years, the more I think my brother was on to something.
- 1:17:36SPEAKER_00: Kind of like Chris Holmes in the pool.
- 1:17:38SPEAKER_00: He would have been screaming in pain because the vodka would have burned his eyes.
- 1:17:43SPEAKER_00: I now look at that scene as a producer enhancement.
- 1:17:47SPEAKER_00: He was already shit-faced.
- 1:17:49SPEAKER_00: They just needed some of the visual props to punch home the point.
- 1:17:52SPEAKER_00: Thoughts?
- 1:17:53SPEAKER_00: Would love to get Neely's take as well.
- 1:17:55SPEAKER_01: As well?
- 1:17:56SPEAKER_03: What take do I have about Evel Knieper?
- 1:17:59SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 1:18:00SPEAKER_03: I don't have much of a take.
- 1:18:02SPEAKER_03: The only take I have out of the whole thing is I'm curious if his brother is Eric Ferentino's.
- 1:18:08SPEAKER_03: He's way in on the conspiracy here.
- 1:18:10SPEAKER_03: Holy smokes.
- 1:18:11SPEAKER_00: Well, to the point, the last point that Chris makes is about the Chris Holmes thing.
- 1:18:20SPEAKER_00: Yes, those bottles were full of water.
- 1:18:23SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:18:25SPEAKER_00: Some of the guys who were at the pool during the Chris Holmes scene They said
- 1:18:32SPEAKER_00: that they filled those vodka bottles full of water.
- 1:18:35SPEAKER_00: So yes, that was just a stud to that point.
- 1:18:40SPEAKER_00: But as far as the Evel Knievel thing is concerned,
- 1:18:45SPEAKER_00: there were hundreds or thousands of people at the jump site.
- 1:18:51SPEAKER_00: This was not just made for TV footage.
- 1:18:55SPEAKER_00: This was not just filmed for TV.
- 1:18:58SPEAKER_00: First of all, this was a closed circuit
- 1:19:03SPEAKER_00: So there was no, this wasn't filmed ahead of time and then broadcast later.
- 1:19:08SPEAKER_00: This was broadcast live on closed circuit TV.
- 1:19:12SPEAKER_00: Plus there were thousands upon thousands of people at the jump site to watch this thing.
- 1:19:18SPEAKER_00: They had massive parties going on.
- 1:19:22SPEAKER_00: People were getting kind of nutty out there.
- 1:19:24SPEAKER_00: They had marching bands out there.
- 1:19:25SPEAKER_00: They had just tons of people.
- 1:19:28SPEAKER_00: We're witnessing this.
- 1:19:30SPEAKER_00: So when they lowered Evil into the rocket for takeoff, there was no trickery involved.
- 1:19:37SPEAKER_00: There was no way that they lowered him in and he somehow sneakily slipped out
- 1:19:42SPEAKER_00: and they put a dummy in his place.
- 1:19:43SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:19:44SPEAKER_00: You know, and we're going to show you some video footage from the Snake River Canyon jump.
- 1:19:51SPEAKER_00: And there's just no way that That could have been done.
- 1:19:55SPEAKER_00: Now, if this was filmed for TV only and there was no live audience
- 1:19:59SPEAKER_00: and there was no witnesses per se,
- 1:20:03SPEAKER_00: I might go with Chris's point on this, but this was all live.
- 1:20:07SPEAKER_00: There was no editing and no chance to have a B-roll.
- 1:20:16SPEAKER_00: This was just as you see it.
- 1:20:18SPEAKER_00: And to his point about how was this supposed to land like a lawn dart?
- 1:20:23SPEAKER_00: Yes, actually it was.
- 1:20:26SPEAKER_00: The X2 SkyCycle had a big spring mechanism in the nose.
- 1:20:34SPEAKER_00: And it was supposed, of course, it came down with the assistance of a parachute.
- 1:20:40SPEAKER_00: So it landed fairly softly,
- 1:20:43SPEAKER_00: no different than somebody who jumps out of a plane with a parachute.
- 1:20:47SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:20:49SPEAKER_00: You know,
- 1:20:49SPEAKER_00: typically most people who jump successfully out of a plane with a parachute,
- 1:20:54SPEAKER_00: their legs don't crumble under them.
- 1:20:56SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:20:57SPEAKER_00: When they land, they land safely without breaking their bones.
- 1:21:01SPEAKER_00: Well, that's how this sky cycle was to land too.
- 1:21:05SPEAKER_00: The parachute was of a large enough size to where it would land that...
- 1:21:11SPEAKER_00: SkyCycle down safely had he landed on the opposite side.
- 1:21:15SPEAKER_00: But instead, it did land on its nose in the rocks.
- 1:21:20SPEAKER_00: And the damaged SkyCycle,
- 1:21:22SPEAKER_00: the nose is all crumpled and damaged,
- 1:21:24SPEAKER_00: and it's on display at the Evel Knievel Museum in Las Vegas.
- 1:21:29SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:21:31SPEAKER_00: And do you remember Rick Case?
- 1:21:33SPEAKER_00: Remember Rick Case Honda?
- 1:21:34SPEAKER_01: Hi, this is Rick Case.
- 1:21:35SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 1:21:36SPEAKER_01: I'm going to sell you a Honda.
- 1:21:37SPEAKER_00: Well, after this Snake River Canyon jump,
- 1:21:42SPEAKER_00: Rick Case had a dealership right along Interstate 77,
- 1:21:46SPEAKER_00: just north of Arlington Road, the Arlington Road exit.
- 1:21:52SPEAKER_00: They had that SkyCycle propped up there in the Rick Case car dealer parking lot.
- 1:21:58SPEAKER_00: You could actually see it as you drove by on Interstate 77.
- 1:22:02SPEAKER_00: He used it.
- 1:22:03SPEAKER_00: He knew Evel Knievel very well.
- 1:22:05SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:22:06SPEAKER_00: And he had that SkyCycle propped up in his lot there for like a day or two.
- 1:22:11SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 1:22:12SPEAKER_00: It was on display, obviously, to try to bring customers in or people in to see it.
- 1:22:18SPEAKER_00: Brought you in, I'm sure.
- 1:22:20SPEAKER_00: Of course.
- 1:22:20SPEAKER_00: But I was only, you got to realize, I was only 10 years old at the time.
- 1:22:24SPEAKER_03: right.
- 1:22:24SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:22:24SPEAKER_00: Because this was 1974.
- 1:22:26SPEAKER_00: He did this in September of 74.
- 1:22:29SPEAKER_00: So I wasn't driving yet, obviously.
- 1:22:32SPEAKER_00: But I do remember going by there to see it.
- 1:22:36SPEAKER_00: I remember Rick Case.
- 1:22:38SPEAKER_00: He had commercials for years.
- 1:22:40SPEAKER_00: He did.
- 1:22:40SPEAKER_00: Hi, this is Rick Case.
- 1:22:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he's always real energetic.
- 1:22:44SPEAKER_00: Of course, the joke in our school was, hi, this is Dick Face.
- 1:22:48SPEAKER_00: This is Dick Face.
- 1:22:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I remember Rick Case Honda.
- 1:22:56SPEAKER_03: I think my dad knew him, knew Rick Case.
- 1:22:59SPEAKER_03: Because I remember going there a couple times,
- 1:23:01SPEAKER_03: and my dad was always trying to get me into motorcycles and whatever.
- 1:23:05SPEAKER_03: He was trying to...
- 1:23:06SPEAKER_03: Defag me
- 1:23:07SPEAKER_01: or whatever.
- 1:23:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he was a big Honda dealer.
- 1:23:11SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I remember the Rick Case Honda.
- 1:23:13SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
- 1:23:14SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 1:23:15SPEAKER_01: All right, well, let's look at this video.
- 1:23:19SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 1:23:20SPEAKER_01: Let me share that screen.
- 1:23:22SPEAKER_01: Here we go.
- 1:23:27SPEAKER_02: To be a man and to do my best, to stand alone is my only quest.
- 1:23:35SPEAKER_02: Success is a term that has broad use.
- 1:23:37SPEAKER_03: Now this thing is like allegedly sort of a motorcycle in some way?
- 1:23:42SPEAKER_00: Well, it's a steam-powered rocket.
- 1:23:44SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:23:46SPEAKER_00: But he called it the Sky Cycle.
- 1:23:49SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:23:50SPEAKER_00: But for all intents and purposes,
- 1:23:52SPEAKER_00: it's got two wheels in the rear and a single wheel in the front, I think.
- 1:23:57SPEAKER_00: And so I guess it's a combination tri-cycle and rocket.
- 1:24:04SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 1:24:05SPEAKER_03: And you said this was only on
- 1:24:07SPEAKER_03: closed circuit or pay-per-view or whatever?
- 1:24:09SPEAKER_00: Correct.
- 1:24:09SPEAKER_03: It wasn't on Wide World of Sports?
- 1:24:11SPEAKER_03: No, no.
- 1:24:12SPEAKER_00: Because this was a big money thing.
- 1:24:15SPEAKER_00: So the way Evil got paid for doing this because he was committed to a promoter
- 1:24:23SPEAKER_00: who paid him, I think it was a couple million dollars to do this thing.
- 1:24:30SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:24:31SPEAKER_00: And so they got their money back by making it a closed circuit TV thing.
- 1:24:37SPEAKER_00: I believe they showed this in movie theaters and things.
- 1:24:41SPEAKER_00: You could go wherever closed circuit television broadcasts were available.

- 1:25:21SPEAKER_03: I just remember watching Evil Knievel a lot on Wide World of Sports.
- 1:25:24SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 1:25:25SPEAKER_00: Well, those were the Wide World of Sports, but this was a.
- 1:25:28SPEAKER_00: This was a special.
- 1:25:30SPEAKER_00: This was a pay-per-view event.
- 1:25:31SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 1:25:32SPEAKER_01: I get it.
- 1:25:33SPEAKER_01: All right, let's watch.
- 1:25:34SPEAKER_01: Here we go.
- 1:25:36SPEAKER_02: For you and I to have none in life, there's no excuse.
- 1:25:40SPEAKER_02: For you to do what I do is not right.
- 1:25:45SPEAKER_02: But for me, it's not wrong.
- 1:25:49SPEAKER_02: What I've been trying to tell you all along is that it's got to be.
- 1:25:54SPEAKER_02: So, if you wonder why, the
- 1:25:59SPEAKER_02: answer to that is that just like you, I've got to be me.
- 1:26:05SPEAKER_02: Start the movie cameras,
- 1:26:07SPEAKER_02: start his stopwatch on his knee, and they get the final count from Ron Chase.
- 1:26:17SPEAKER_02: We're still, I understand, two minutes in holding.
- 1:26:19SPEAKER_02: And counting now.
- 1:26:20SPEAKER_02: We're now counting.
- 1:26:21SPEAKER_02: The process started.
- 1:26:22SPEAKER_02: One minute, 49 seconds.
- 1:26:31SPEAKER_01: Jesus, that noise alone would make me fucking walk out of the theater.
- 1:26:35SPEAKER_01: Jesus Christ.
- 1:26:36SPEAKER_03: That's pretty loud.
- 1:26:37SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it is.
- 1:26:38SPEAKER_03: All right, here we go.
- 1:26:42SPEAKER_03: We're approaching the great moment now.
- 1:26:44SPEAKER_00: The go-ahead has been given by Ron Chase and Bob Trovax.
- 1:26:49SPEAKER_02: And there is just one and a half minutes left.
- 1:26:52SPEAKER_00: Now, who is Ron Chase?
- 1:26:53SPEAKER_00: Is he his manager?
- 1:26:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, well, they're the ground crew there.
- 1:26:57SPEAKER_00: There's Bob Tuax, who designed that sky cycle, and then his engineer.
- 1:27:04SPEAKER_00: But as you can see, you can see Evil is moving around in there.
- 1:27:08SPEAKER_00: His hand is moving and stuff.
- 1:27:10SPEAKER_00: You can see him moving, so it's not a mannequin or something.
- 1:27:14SPEAKER_00: I saw the moon landing.
- 1:27:15SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:27:18SPEAKER_00: Could be.
- 1:27:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but there's people standing all around this thing.
- 1:27:21SPEAKER_00: I mean, you know.
- 1:27:22SPEAKER_00: Paid actors.
- 1:27:24SPEAKER_00: Is that what it is?
- 1:27:24SPEAKER_00: All of them?
- 1:27:25SPEAKER_00: All of them.
- 1:27:26SPEAKER_00: All of them.
- 1:27:27SPEAKER_00: Kept their secret forever.
- 1:27:28SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 1:27:29SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 1:27:30SPEAKER_03: Here we go.
- 1:27:31SPEAKER_00: To Evel Knievel's date.
- 1:27:35SPEAKER_02: At about 1.15, Evel will arm the master arm switch.
- 1:27:46SPEAKER_02: Jim, that master arm switch should be being armed right now.
- 1:27:51SPEAKER_02: That's right, Len.
- 1:27:52SPEAKER_02: It's all set to go.
- 1:27:53SPEAKER_02: All you have to do is now press the trigger on the right hand, control hand.
- 1:28:01SPEAKER_02: There is now just one minute to go.
- 1:28:04SPEAKER_02: One minute and counting.
- 1:28:06SPEAKER_02: Is it going to turn it on or what?
- 1:28:12SPEAKER_02: We'll go on at ten seconds.
- 1:28:13SPEAKER_02: Camera's on at five.
- 1:28:18SPEAKER_02: I think evil asked us and asked us all to be silent and wish him well in the last 30 seconds.
- 1:28:24SPEAKER_02: So we will all stop talking now for this last 30 seconds to countdown.
- 1:28:28SPEAKER_03: Happy landing, evil.
- 1:28:32SPEAKER_03: Even back then in the 70s, he's got a fucking sticker for Chuckles Candy on his fucking thing.
- 1:28:38SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:28:39SPEAKER_00: You know, he's got the Mack truck logo on there.
- 1:28:42SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:28:43SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
- 1:28:43SPEAKER_01: There it is.
- 1:28:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:28:44SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:28:45SPEAKER_00: Those were all his sponsors.
- 1:28:47SPEAKER_00: Chuckles.
- 1:28:47SPEAKER_00: I used to like those Chuckles Candies.
- 1:28:49SPEAKER_00: Chuckles Candies.
- 1:28:51SPEAKER_01: Those are good.
- 1:28:51SPEAKER_01: All right, here we go.
- 1:28:53SPEAKER_01: 17, 16, 17, 18.
- 1:29:15SPEAKER_02: Five, four, three, two, one.
- 1:29:21SPEAKER_02: Come on!
- 1:29:23SPEAKER_02: Okay, Eagle, stay
- 1:29:31with
- 1:29:36SPEAKER_02: the birds, stay with the birds.
- 1:29:38SPEAKER_02: It looks like you're gonna go into the canyon.
- 1:29:41SPEAKER_02: Oh shit!
- 1:29:43SPEAKER_02: You have a good sheet on it.
- 1:29:46SPEAKER_02: Stay with the vehicle.
- 1:29:47SPEAKER_00: Stay with the vehicle.
- 1:29:48SPEAKER_00: Put your visor
- 1:29:49SPEAKER_02: up as you can.
- 1:29:49SPEAKER_02: You cannot see it now.
- 1:29:53SPEAKER_02: There she goes beneath the rim of the canyon.
- 1:29:57SPEAKER_02: She's going to crash, obviously, into the river.
- 1:29:59SPEAKER_02: She's coming down about 17 feet per second.
- 1:30:02SPEAKER_02: Slowly going down.
- 1:30:08SPEAKER_02: It looks like he is in the water.
- 1:30:11SPEAKER_03: What do they mean?
- 1:30:11SPEAKER_03: He just cleared the rocks.
- 1:30:13SPEAKER_01: He fucking hit the rocks.
- 1:30:16SPEAKER_03: Jeremy goes, he
- 1:30:17SPEAKER_01: just cleared the
- 1:30:17SPEAKER_03: rocks.
- 1:30:18SPEAKER_01: Thank God he smashed into them.
- 1:30:20SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:30:22SPEAKER_00: Well, their, their biggest concern is that he was going to land in the water and drown.
- 1:30:27SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:30:27SPEAKER_00: And if they land,
- 1:30:28SPEAKER_00: if he landed in the water,
- 1:30:30SPEAKER_00: then, uh, his, you know, his, uh, Rescue crew couldn't get to him in time.
- 1:30:35SPEAKER_00: He couldn't ground easily because he was strapped into it, you know.
- 1:30:39SPEAKER_01: Well, I can't really see it.
- 1:30:40SPEAKER_01: Does he fall into the water?
- 1:30:42SPEAKER_00: Looks like he fell into the water.
- 1:30:43SPEAKER_00: No, he just rolls right.
- 1:30:46SPEAKER_00: There's another ledge below those rocks, and he landed on there.
- 1:30:49SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 1:30:51SPEAKER_01: All right, here we go.
- 1:30:54SPEAKER_02: Robert Craig Knievel appears to have landed in the Snake River.
- 1:30:59SPEAKER_02: What does it look like while it's It looks like he didn't hold on to the handle.
- 1:31:03SPEAKER_02: Like we feared.
- 1:31:04SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:31:05SPEAKER_02: Where does it look like he's down in the water?
- 1:31:07SPEAKER_02: No, I'm afraid he's down in the rocks on this side, but I can't see.
- 1:31:10SPEAKER_02: In the water.
- 1:31:11SPEAKER_02: In the water.
- 1:31:12SPEAKER_02: In the water.
- 1:31:12SPEAKER_02: In the water.
- 1:31:13SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:31:13SPEAKER_02: Up to the frogman now.
- 1:31:14SPEAKER_02: Hey!
- 1:31:14SPEAKER_02: Hey!
- 1:31:15SPEAKER_02: Hey!
- 1:31:15SPEAKER_02: Did he hit the water?
- 1:31:17SPEAKER_02: Yes!
- 1:31:31SPEAKER_02: Robert Craig Knievel did not clear the 1,600-foot Snake River Canyon.
- 1:31:37SPEAKER_02: He has landed in the Snake River.
- 1:31:41SPEAKER_02: However, we believe it is in the river and not on the rocks.
- 1:31:46SPEAKER_02: And as you saw on the takeoff,
- 1:31:49SPEAKER_02: after she cleared the launch area, there was a definite roll to the right.
- 1:31:53SPEAKER_02: She rolled to the right.
- 1:31:55SPEAKER_02: And the chute opened prematurely, too, did it not?
- 1:31:58SPEAKER_02: That's right.
- 1:31:58SPEAKER_02: The drug chute came out, and then the main
- 1:32:00SPEAKER_01: chute came out.
- 1:32:02SPEAKER_01: Is that what made it fail?
- 1:32:03SPEAKER_01: Was it the chute opened too early and slowed it down?
- 1:32:06SPEAKER_00: Yeah, well, the chute canister blew out on takeoff.
- 1:32:10SPEAKER_00: And then it opened up and slowed down.
- 1:32:12SPEAKER_00: Because the G-forces of that rocket just,
- 1:32:16SPEAKER_00: there was like the parachute canister just blew out of there just as soon as
- 1:32:22SPEAKER_00: that rocket took off.
- 1:32:25SPEAKER_01: Right, here we go.
- 1:32:29SPEAKER_02: Jim, it appeared to me as if he made no attempt to try to get out of the vehicle, wasn't it?
- 1:32:35SPEAKER_02: Because he was not up high enough?
- 1:32:38SPEAKER_02: Well, there'd be no attempt to try to get out of the vehicle at that time, Len.
- 1:32:41SPEAKER_02: It's best to stay in it and lift the main chute to recover you, which he did do.
- 1:32:46SPEAKER_02: The family, and we're racing around to them now, is hysterical and in shock, crying.
- 1:32:50SPEAKER_02: They think evil may be dead or may be drowning in the river.
- 1:32:55SPEAKER_03: I like how casually that fucking announcer is.
- 1:32:58SPEAKER_03: Here's the family losing control.
- 1:32:59SPEAKER_03: They think he might be dead.
- 1:33:03SPEAKER_00: Again, going back to Chris Hurley's point,
- 1:33:07SPEAKER_00: that would be quite an acting job for everybody to act hysterical if that was just
- 1:33:13SPEAKER_00: a dummy in the rocket.
- 1:33:15SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
- 1:33:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:33:17SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no.
- 1:33:18SPEAKER_01: I hear you.
- 1:33:18SPEAKER_01: All right, here we go.
- 1:33:23SPEAKER_02: Let's go over to Bud Ferrillo, who's got a view of what's happening.
- 1:33:30SPEAKER_02: Yes, what happened was this evil definitely tried to get out, but he couldn't.
- 1:33:34SPEAKER_02: And it appeared that he hit the side of the canyon.
- 1:33:36SPEAKER_02: He did not go into the river.
- 1:33:38SPEAKER_02: It looked like the nose did hit on the side.
- 1:33:42SPEAKER_02: I can't see the craft or evil at all from where I am.
- 1:33:47SPEAKER_02: But he did try to get out.
- 1:33:49SPEAKER_02: He was trying desperately to get out of the sky cycle.
- 1:33:54SPEAKER_02: Of course, there's speculation at this point to try to imagine what possibly went wrong.
- 1:33:59SPEAKER_02: Well, it appeared that the chute opened too fast.
- 1:34:03SPEAKER_02: Is there anyone getting close, Bud, to bring us more news?
- 1:34:06SPEAKER_02: David, I can't see anything.
- 1:34:08SPEAKER_02: Nobody has gone into the water.
- 1:34:09SPEAKER_02: As I say, there are two men rowing up to the site.
- 1:34:13SPEAKER_02: Well, that river, again, will repeat.
- 1:34:14SPEAKER_02: It's about 15 to 18 feet deep.
- 1:34:18SPEAKER_02: David, I am very scared.
- 1:34:20SPEAKER_02: The nose of the craft appeared to hit on the side of the canyon.
- 1:34:24SPEAKER_02: Let's quickly see again what happened.
- 1:34:26SPEAKER_02: Here it is, the rocket ready to go off the pad in a burst of white hot steam.
- 1:34:30SPEAKER_02: And there's the shoot much too soon.
- 1:34:32SPEAKER_02: What went wrong?
- 1:34:33SPEAKER_02: No one is sure.
- 1:34:35SPEAKER_02: Evel Knievel is standing in the boat and waving.
- 1:34:37SPEAKER_02: He is alive and well.
- 1:34:39SPEAKER_02: All
- 1:34:43SPEAKER_01: right, what injuries did he have?
- 1:34:46SPEAKER_01: Did he have any injuries?
- 1:34:48SPEAKER_00: No, he didn't have any injuries because he was tied into that.
- 1:34:51SPEAKER_00: So he didn't, you know.
- 1:34:53SPEAKER_00: But you'll see him when he gets up on top.
- 1:34:56SPEAKER_00: You'll see how visibly shaken he is.
- 1:34:58SPEAKER_00: He's pretty rattled.
- 1:35:01SPEAKER_02: There we go.
- 1:35:02SPEAKER_02: I think at this point we can all say thank God.
- 1:35:05SPEAKER_00: Looks okay.
- 1:35:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah, we can.
- 1:35:08SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:35:09SPEAKER_02: We'll show you the monitor.
- 1:35:11SPEAKER_02: Great job.
- 1:35:13SPEAKER_02: Come on, get the kids.
- 1:35:14SPEAKER_02: We'll go on the ABC show.
- 1:35:14SPEAKER_02: Come on.
- 1:35:16SPEAKER_02: Where's Kelly?
- 1:35:18SPEAKER_02: Jack.
- 1:35:20SPEAKER_02: He's 30.
- 1:35:21SPEAKER_02: He's okay.
- 1:35:21SPEAKER_02: Good boy.
- 1:35:29SPEAKER_02: Well, maybe he didn't clear the canyon,
- 1:35:31SPEAKER_02: and maybe his dream did not come true,
- 1:35:34SPEAKER_02: but at least he's alive and well, and he tried.
- 1:35:39SPEAKER_02: I would imagine right now Mrs. Knievel is as limp as a rag.
- 1:35:47SPEAKER_00: Limp as a rag.
- 1:35:48SPEAKER_00: Limp as a rag.
- 1:35:49SPEAKER_00: Yeah, she's just lost all the...
- 1:35:53SPEAKER_00: Power to walk.
- 1:35:55SPEAKER_00: Why would he say that?
- 1:35:59SPEAKER_00: That's funny.
- 1:36:00SPEAKER_00: She is in pretty good shape for banging out three puppies.
- 1:36:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:36:03SPEAKER_03: I'm sure evil didn't allow her to eat one thing that would stick to her.
- 1:36:08SPEAKER_03: He doesn't seem like the tolerant type.
- 1:36:10SPEAKER_03: Here, have another piece of cake.
- 1:36:11SPEAKER_03: I don't see that.
- 1:36:13SPEAKER_03: I see him batting her down, batting the cake out of her hand with his fucking cane.
- 1:36:18SPEAKER_03: All right, here we go.
- 1:36:21SPEAKER_02: We understand she is in the mobile unit beneath our announce stand here on
- 1:36:26SPEAKER_02: the tower, and she is very, very happy, a very happy woman.
- 1:36:32SPEAKER_02: That wasn't the way the coverage had been planned.
- 1:36:33SPEAKER_02: As a matter of fact,
- 1:36:34SPEAKER_02: there were three helicopters in the air,
- 1:36:36SPEAKER_02: each with a camera to try to see things unforeseen like that that might occur.
- 1:36:41SPEAKER_02: However,
- 1:36:42SPEAKER_02: at the instant that he started heading down the canyon,
- 1:36:44SPEAKER_02: the Federal Aviation Administration,
- 1:36:46SPEAKER_02: and we certainly think properly, ordered all aircraft to land immediately.
- 1:36:50SPEAKER_02: And so there was no camera that could see that spot.
- 1:36:53SPEAKER_02: But he wasn't in the river.
- 1:36:54SPEAKER_02: He was on this ledge.
- 1:36:56SPEAKER_02: Now let's resume the coverage as it happened last night.
- 1:37:00SPEAKER_02: Less than 20 minutes after blasting off,
- 1:37:02SPEAKER_02: Evel Knievel is back at his launch pad now in a cloud of dust.
- 1:37:06SPEAKER_02: Premature parachute deployment.
- 1:37:07SPEAKER_02: He couldn't hold the chute, but he landed safely in the water.
- 1:37:10SPEAKER_02: He's walking on his own.
- 1:37:12SPEAKER_02: Looks like he has a bloody nose.
- 1:37:13SPEAKER_02: He's bruising his eyes a little
- 1:37:22SPEAKER_02: bit.
- 1:37:23SPEAKER_02: How do you feel, Tiger?
- 1:37:23SPEAKER_02: I love Evel.
- 1:37:24SPEAKER_02: Oh, I don't know, Julian.
- 1:37:26SPEAKER_02: How rough was the landing?
- 1:37:29SPEAKER_02: You lost the spring?
- 1:37:32SPEAKER_02: You couldn't hold the spring?
- 1:37:39SPEAKER_02: It went sideways.
- 1:37:41SPEAKER_02: It turned.
- 1:37:42SPEAKER_02: I don't know what happened down here,
- 1:37:44SPEAKER_02: but Ron and Bob both told me if I saw the canyon wall and not the sky,
- 1:37:48SPEAKER_02: For Christ's sake, to let it go.
- 1:37:49SPEAKER_02: And when it turned, I let her fly.
- 1:37:52SPEAKER_02: I didn't know what had happened.
- 1:37:54SPEAKER_02: It just about knocks you out.
- 1:37:55SPEAKER_02: Jules, when it takes... How were
- 1:37:57SPEAKER_00: you rescued, though?
- 1:37:58SPEAKER_00: How were you rescued, even?
- 1:37:59SPEAKER_02: Thank God you were.
- 1:38:00SPEAKER_02: They came and got me out down there in the trees and put me in the boat.
- 1:38:04SPEAKER_02: I couldn't get my safety belt.
- 1:38:06SPEAKER_02: Unharnessed?
- 1:38:07SPEAKER_02: Unharnessed.
- 1:38:07SPEAKER_02: If I'd have gone in the river, I'd have never got out of it, ever.
- 1:38:10SPEAKER_02: Where did you land?
- 1:38:10SPEAKER_02: Right on the shore?
- 1:38:11SPEAKER_02: Well, I hit... No, I landed into the wall on this side and then bounced down.
- 1:38:15SPEAKER_02: But...
- 1:38:18SPEAKER_02: I don't know what happened.
- 1:38:19SPEAKER_02: It's just that I think...
- 1:38:21SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 1:38:22SPEAKER_02: I just can't say.
- 1:38:22SPEAKER_02: I'll have to let Bob and fellas examine it.
- 1:38:25SPEAKER_02: Are you going to try it again?
- 1:38:27SPEAKER_02: Well, I don't know what I'm going to do.
- 1:38:33SPEAKER_03: He just crashed like 30 minutes ago, and you're like, hey, you're going to do it again?
- 1:38:37SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:38:38SPEAKER_00: Can we start selling tickets?
- 1:38:40SPEAKER_00: But you can see he's pretty...
- 1:38:42SPEAKER_00: He's out of it.
- 1:38:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he's disoriented.
- 1:38:46SPEAKER_01: He probably has concussion.
- 1:38:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah, of course.
- 1:38:49SPEAKER_01: He just smacked into a wall.
- 1:38:51SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:38:53SPEAKER_00: So to Chris Hurley's point, was this a trickery by way of camera?
- 1:38:59SPEAKER_00: No.
- 1:38:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't think so.
- 1:39:01SPEAKER_01: I think there's just 1974, you just didn't have 400 cameras.
- 1:39:06SPEAKER_01: You know, if you did this today, there'd
- 1:39:08SPEAKER_01: be a million cameras all around to capture everything.
- 1:39:11SPEAKER_00: And did you see the amount of people that were there?
- 1:39:13SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:39:14SPEAKER_00: You know.
- 1:39:16SPEAKER_00: But as you can see,
- 1:39:17SPEAKER_00: he's got a bloody nose from the red out from the forces
- 1:39:22SPEAKER_00: and he's just like all disoriented.
- 1:39:24SPEAKER_00: And so, you know,
- 1:39:26SPEAKER_00: there wasn't this,
- 1:39:29SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 1:39:30SPEAKER_00: he just flew out of the rocket and then got off the helicopter and nothing in
- 1:39:36SPEAKER_00: between.
- 1:39:38SPEAKER_00: There's plenty of in between.
- 1:39:40SPEAKER_01: Yeah, there's definitely some in between there.
- 1:39:41SPEAKER_01: That's for sure.
- 1:39:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:39:44SPEAKER_00: It says there's no footage of him climbing out of the crashed rocket.
- 1:39:48SPEAKER_01: No, because it was 1974.
- 1:39:51SPEAKER_01: I mean, honestly, we're watching this.
- 1:39:53SPEAKER_01: This was pay-per-view, and what is it, three cameras?
- 1:39:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah, pretty much.
- 1:39:57SPEAKER_03: One from behind the takeoff,
- 1:40:00SPEAKER_03: one kind of overhead
- 1:40:02SPEAKER_01: shot, and one looking down the canyon, and that's it.
- 1:40:06SPEAKER_01: That might only have been two cameras.
- 1:40:08SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:40:10SPEAKER_01: All right, you want to show the other one?
- 1:40:12SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so anyway,
- 1:40:13SPEAKER_00: just to drive the point home about how this sky cycle was supposed to land,
- 1:40:22SPEAKER_00: a stunt guy recreated this jump.
- 1:40:25SPEAKER_00: He worked with Bob Tuak's son,
- 1:40:29SPEAKER_00: who designed the original sky cycle,
- 1:40:33SPEAKER_00: and they built a sky cycle from the original plans.
- 1:40:38SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
- 1:40:40SPEAKER_00: And this guy jumped the Snake River Canyon just down a little bit from where Evil jumped.
- 1:40:46SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:40:47SPEAKER_00: And he did it successfully.
- 1:40:49SPEAKER_00: But, you know,
- 1:40:51SPEAKER_00: had Evil,
- 1:40:52SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 1:40:52SPEAKER_00: made it across the canyon, it should have looked like what you're going to see here.
- 1:40:56SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:40:58SPEAKER_03: Let's check it out.
- 1:41:01SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:41:14SPEAKER_02: Here he comes, it's like he made it over okay.
- 1:41:41SPEAKER_02: All right, so he definitely made it.
- 1:41:44SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:41:45SPEAKER_02: So.
- 1:42:10SPEAKER_00: Anyway, that's exactly how it was meant to be is that it would land on the nose just like that.
- 1:42:17SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 1:42:18SPEAKER_00: So what's your thoughts, Mr.
- 1:42:22SPEAKER_00: Akin, since Chris Hurley asked you for your thoughts and maybe my thoughts, perhaps.
- 1:42:29SPEAKER_03: Maybe your thoughts.
- 1:42:30SPEAKER_01: Meanwhile, I was six.
- 1:42:32SPEAKER_01: So I certainly do not remember this at all, but...
- 1:42:37SPEAKER_01: I mean, I've heard about it,
- 1:42:38SPEAKER_01: obviously,
- 1:42:38SPEAKER_01: and doing this show,
- 1:42:39SPEAKER_01: I've heard about it a bunch of times,
- 1:42:41SPEAKER_01: but I didn't even know there was a conspiracy until I got this message
- 1:42:46SPEAKER_01: from Chris Hurley.
- 1:42:47SPEAKER_01: I had no idea.
- 1:42:49SPEAKER_01: So I don't think there's a conspiracy.
- 1:42:51SPEAKER_01: I think it just fucking didn't work.
- 1:42:53SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it didn't work, and I believe he actually did it.
- 1:42:58SPEAKER_00: He was actually in that SkyCycle.
- 1:43:00SPEAKER_00: It wasn't trick photography.
- 1:43:02SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I don't think so.
- 1:43:03SPEAKER_00: B-roll and all that other stuff.
- 1:43:05SPEAKER_00: It wasn't anything like that.
- 1:43:06SPEAKER_00: That was the real deal.
- 1:43:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think so.
- 1:43:10SPEAKER_01: Evel Knievel just doesn't seem,
- 1:43:13SPEAKER_01: and again,
- 1:43:14SPEAKER_03: money changes everybody,
- 1:43:17SPEAKER_03: but Evel Knievel really didn't seem like the kind that would fake some shit like
- 1:43:21SPEAKER_03: that.
- 1:43:21SPEAKER_03: I mean, Jesus Christ, how many times did we watch him wipe out?
- 1:43:25SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:43:25SPEAKER_01: Break bones and everything.
- 1:43:26SPEAKER_01: He didn't.
- 1:43:28SPEAKER_01: If he was going to fake stuff, he would have faked that.
- 1:43:31SPEAKER_01: He'd have faked some of those jumps or whatever.
- 1:43:35SPEAKER_01: You know, but I just don't see him being that guy.
- 1:43:39SPEAKER_00: Nope.
- 1:43:40SPEAKER_03: I see him, if it went in the water, he would have happily drowned.
- 1:43:43SPEAKER_03: The way he seemed,
- 1:43:44SPEAKER_03: he'd have been like,
- 1:43:45SPEAKER_03: okay, well, at least if I drown, my legacy will be cemented forever.
- 1:43:49SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 1:43:49SPEAKER_03: He seemed like that kind of
- 1:43:51SPEAKER_01: guy, didn't he?
- 1:43:52SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 1:43:53SPEAKER_01: So, yeah, I don't think it's fake.
- 1:43:58SPEAKER_01: Hey, Metalheads.

- 1:45:00SPEAKER_03: Because that could have ruined it.
- 1:45:01SPEAKER_03: I don't think it did.
- 1:45:02SPEAKER_03: Like, he kept jumping for years, right?
- 1:45:05SPEAKER_00: Well, he attempted to jump 13 buses at Wembley Stadium after this, and he failed at that.
- 1:45:15SPEAKER_00: He landed short and bounced off of there,
- 1:45:19SPEAKER_00: and because of his being concussed and everything,
- 1:45:24SPEAKER_00: he said,
- 1:45:25SPEAKER_00: you people are the last people in the world to ever see me jump
- 1:45:29SPEAKER_00: because I will never, ever, ever jump again.
- 1:45:32SPEAKER_00: I'm through.
- 1:45:33SPEAKER_00: And was he?
- 1:45:35SPEAKER_00: No.
- 1:45:36SPEAKER_00: Then he came back and did this King's Island jump where he jumped 14 buses successfully.
- 1:45:40SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:45:42SPEAKER_00: And that was a big wide world of sports.
- 1:45:45SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:45:46SPEAKER_01: And he jumped, what, to fountains and stuff?
- 1:45:50SPEAKER_00: Well, that was his first claim to fame was 1968 New Year's Day in Las Vegas.
- 1:46:00SPEAKER_01: There's nothing cool like that anymore.
- 1:46:02SPEAKER_00: No.
- 1:46:02SPEAKER_00: No.
- 1:46:04SPEAKER_00: No, not at all.
- 1:46:05SPEAKER_00: I mean, you can find that 14 bus Kings Island jump if you look that up real quick.
- 1:46:15SPEAKER_00: Let's see.
- 1:46:16SPEAKER_00: Kings Island, Evel Knievel, Kings Island.
- 1:46:20SPEAKER_00: And that was his biggest, most successful motorcycle jump.
- 1:46:27SPEAKER_00: And after that, he just kind of did smaller jumps after that.
- 1:46:31SPEAKER_01: Did his kid do bigger jumps than he did?
- 1:46:33SPEAKER_00: Well, you know,
- 1:46:35SPEAKER_00: it's hard to compare Robbie's career to Evil because Evil rode,
- 1:46:40SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 1:46:41SPEAKER_00: he rode Harley Davidson's and American Eagle bikes and stuff,
- 1:46:45SPEAKER_00: big street bikes as to where Robbie,
- 1:46:49SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 1:46:49SPEAKER_00: used like a dirt bike,
- 1:46:51SPEAKER_00: you know, but he,
- 1:46:52SPEAKER_00: Robbie broke all of Evil's records,
- 1:46:55SPEAKER_00: but I see it comparing apples to oranges in a lot of ways because it was
- 1:47:01SPEAKER_00: a totally different bike.
- 1:47:05SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and people's bike was like the weight of a car or something, wasn't it?
- 1:47:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:47:10SPEAKER_00: It was like a big heavy Harley.
- 1:47:13SPEAKER_00: It was like 2,000 pounds.
- 1:47:14SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:47:16SPEAKER_00: And the bike that Robbie used was maybe like 500 pounds or something.
- 1:47:20SPEAKER_00: Smaller.
- 1:47:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah, just a dirt style bike.
- 1:47:24SPEAKER_01: Okay, let's check this out.
- 1:47:31SPEAKER_01: Oh, went right to the end.
- 1:47:36SPEAKER_02: Well, Knievel is very intense.
- 1:47:38SPEAKER_02: We talked to him a few moments ago before he came out of the van.
- 1:47:43SPEAKER_02: And his total concentration now is getting that bike off the approach ramp and onto
- 1:47:48SPEAKER_02: the landing ramp.
- 1:47:49SPEAKER_02: And he is not hesitating.
- 1:47:50SPEAKER_02: He'll go.
- 1:48:25SPEAKER_00: There you go.
- 1:48:26SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 1:48:27SPEAKER_00: So do this Wembley Stadium.
- 1:48:31SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 1:48:32SPEAKER_00: That's the one he crashed at Wembley Stadium right after the Snake River Canyon jump.
- 1:48:40SPEAKER_00: It's right there.
- 1:48:42SPEAKER_00: It's the one with.
- 1:48:43SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 1:48:44SPEAKER_00: It's 50 minutes, man.
- 1:48:46SPEAKER_00: Oh, I know.
- 1:48:46SPEAKER_00: But you can fast forward that to the jump.
- 1:48:49SPEAKER_00: Let's see.
- 1:48:54SPEAKER_01: Oops.
- 1:48:56SPEAKER_01: Do-do-do-do-do-do.
- 1:48:57SPEAKER_01: Come on.
- 1:49:01SPEAKER_01: Is this the jump?
- 1:49:03SPEAKER_00: Nope.
- 1:49:03SPEAKER_00: Keep going.
- 1:49:03SPEAKER_00: See, he's got the sky cycle there on display.
- 1:49:09SPEAKER_00: Keep going.
- 1:49:10SPEAKER_00: Keep going.
- 1:49:11SPEAKER_00: Keep going.
- 1:49:14SPEAKER_00: Is this it?
- 1:49:15SPEAKER_00: Nope.
- 1:49:15SPEAKER_00: Back it up just a little bit.
- 1:49:19SPEAKER_00: Right there.
- 1:49:20SPEAKER_00: Right there.
- 1:49:21SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 1:49:22SPEAKER_01: Let me put it back on the screen.
- 1:49:24SPEAKER_01: There we go.
- 1:49:27SPEAKER_01: And here we go.
- 1:50:04SPEAKER_02: Evel
- 1:50:10SPEAKER_02: Knievel, who has now changed bikes, backs off the ramp.
- 1:50:14SPEAKER_02: If he follows his ordinary pattern,
- 1:50:15SPEAKER_02: he will go back to the top and indeed the jump will be coming.
- 1:50:22SPEAKER_02: Evel Knievel out of Butte, Montana, 37 years old.
- 1:50:27SPEAKER_02: Practically every bone in his body has been broken at one time or another over
- 1:50:31SPEAKER_02: the course of his daredevil years.
- 1:50:34SPEAKER_02: An amazing man, he has taken London quite by storm.
- 1:50:39SPEAKER_02: I spent a couple of hours with him prior to the jump,
- 1:50:44SPEAKER_02: and like any other athlete before any other contest, obviously he was nervous.
- 1:50:50SPEAKER_02: But just before he came out and made his appearance,
- 1:50:53SPEAKER_02: Did his thing, if you will, with the wheelies back and forth, turning on the crowd.
- 1:50:58SPEAKER_02: He almost dozed off in a booth.
- 1:51:00SPEAKER_02: He leaned out the window and looked at a crowd of 80,000 people.
- 1:51:03SPEAKER_02: He said, what does a man have to do to get this many people together?
- 1:51:08SPEAKER_02: And I looked at him and I said, Evil, you're doing it.
- 1:51:11SPEAKER_02: He will be going about 90 miles an hour when he leaves the rack.
- 1:51:15SPEAKER_02: He estimates he'll cover 140 feet, 10 feet either direction, and it could be all over.
- 1:51:22SPEAKER_02: Look at him.
- 1:51:23SPEAKER_02: Made his first step, but he was 15.
- 1:51:26SPEAKER_02: Countless other jumps after that in 1966.
- 1:51:28SPEAKER_02: He hurt himself in Indio, 1967 season.
- 1:51:34SPEAKER_02: Here he goes, and he will go.
- 1:51:40SPEAKER_02: Oh, and he has hurt.
- 1:51:40SPEAKER_02: Oh my God.
- 1:51:40SPEAKER_02: Oh, shit.
- 1:51:41SPEAKER_02: Please touch his helmet.
- 1:51:41SPEAKER_02: nobody please touch his helmet and stand away until his own people can be there.
- 1:51:44SPEAKER_02: Please stand, we're back.
- 1:51:44SPEAKER_02: Down and he has hurt.
- 1:52:14SPEAKER_03: I just did was straight fucking nuts.
- 1:52:18SPEAKER_01: Fuck that.
- 1:52:20SPEAKER_00: Fast forward where he talks to the crowd and tells him he's not going to jump anymore.
- 1:52:27SPEAKER_00: You'll see him on the microphone.
- 1:52:31SPEAKER_00: Right there, right there.
- 1:52:35SPEAKER_02: A great hand.
- 1:52:36SPEAKER_02: A great hand from London Stadium.
- 1:52:37SPEAKER_02: A great, hand.
- 1:52:37SPEAKER_02: A great hand.
- 1:52:37SPEAKER_02: Just taking a microphone.
- 1:53:10SPEAKER_02: Ladies and gentlemen of this wonderful country,
- 1:53:17SPEAKER_02: I've got to tell you that you are the last people in the world
- 1:53:26SPEAKER_02: who will ever see me jump because I will never, ever, ever jump again.
- 1:53:31SPEAKER_02: I am through.
- 1:53:31SPEAKER_02: No!
- 1:53:32SPEAKER_02: No!
- 1:53:49SPEAKER_01: That's all he said?
- 1:53:50SPEAKER_00: That's it.
- 1:53:52SPEAKER_00: But then he came back the next year and did that King's Island jump.
- 1:53:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and then he was like, yeah, fuck it.
- 1:53:57SPEAKER_00: I ain't making any money sitting at home.
- 1:53:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he goes, 13 buses were unlucky, so that's why I'm jumping 14.
- 1:54:04SPEAKER_00: I'm sure the wife was like, you ain't making any
- 1:54:06SPEAKER_01: money sitting here yelling at me.
- 1:54:09SPEAKER_01: Get your ass out there and jump something.
- 1:54:12SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:54:12SPEAKER_00: Too good.
- 1:54:13SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:54:14SPEAKER_00: So there's your evil Knievel for the hour.
- 1:54:17SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:54:19SPEAKER_01: I wish we had cool shit like that.
- 1:54:21SPEAKER_01: We don't have anything cool like that anymore.
- 1:54:24SPEAKER_01: You know, there's really not.
- 1:54:26SPEAKER_01: What would be the equivalent of that now?
- 1:54:31SPEAKER_00: Well, I think what's taken away the cool factor is technology.
- 1:54:38SPEAKER_00: The advances in technology have made almost anything possible now.
- 1:54:44SPEAKER_00: People aren't going to try things that might not work.
- 1:54:47SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:54:48SPEAKER_00: And that back then, that was just pure brawn right there.
- 1:54:52SPEAKER_00: You know, there was nothing, you know, technologically advanced about that at all.
- 1:54:58SPEAKER_00: It was a man on a motorcycle just going like a bat out of hell to jump
- 1:55:02SPEAKER_00: over some trucks or buses or canyon or whatever, you know, whatever it might be.
- 1:55:08SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's just sad that the equivalent to it now is what, the X Games or...
- 1:55:16SPEAKER_01: Monster trucks?
- 1:55:18SPEAKER_01: Maybe.
- 1:55:19SPEAKER_00: Monster trucks are pretty fun to watch.
- 1:55:21SPEAKER_00: They're fun to watch, but that's just exhibition.
- 1:55:24SPEAKER_00: That's not setting records or anything.
- 1:55:28SPEAKER_00: No, they just run over shit.
- 1:55:30SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:55:31SPEAKER_00: That's all they do.
- 1:55:32SPEAKER_00: It's just like a smash-up derby or something.
- 1:55:37SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:55:39SPEAKER_01: Well, that was pretty cool.
- 1:55:40SPEAKER_00: Good question, Chris Hurley.
- 1:55:42SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
- 1:55:42SPEAKER_00: So we dedicated a whole hour segment to you,
- 1:55:46SPEAKER_00: Chris Hurley, just because you took the time to write to us.
- 1:55:49SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 1:55:51SPEAKER_00: We answered your question, I hope.
- 1:55:52SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:55:53SPEAKER_01: I wish I had more to offer since you threw it at me, but I don't know shit about evil.
- 1:55:58SPEAKER_01: I had the toys and stuff, and I certainly remember watching it on Wide World of Sports.
- 1:56:05SPEAKER_01: You know, I remember my dad had sit me down.
- 1:56:09SPEAKER_01: It was like on Sundays, right?
- 1:56:11SPEAKER_01: Sundays at like 1 o'clock or something was Wide World Sports?
- 1:56:13SPEAKER_00: Well, typically the jumps were on Saturday.
- 1:56:16SPEAKER_01: But Wide World Sports was on like Saturday and Sunday, right?
- 1:56:19SPEAKER_00: Correct, yeah.
- 1:56:20SPEAKER_01: And we would always do the family thing Saturday,
- 1:56:23SPEAKER_01: and then Sunday it was sitting with my dad on
- 1:56:26SPEAKER_01: the Shays Lounge watching fucking Wide World of Sports,
- 1:56:29SPEAKER_01: whether it was
- 1:56:31SPEAKER_03: Evo Knievel or some kind of bullshit bowling.
- 1:56:34SPEAKER_03: There was a lot of bowling, a lot of that Earl Anthony stuff back
- 1:56:38SPEAKER_00: Mark Roth, Earl
- 1:56:39SPEAKER_03: Anthony.
- 1:56:40SPEAKER_03: And then some pool with Minnesota fats.
- 1:56:43SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:56:44SPEAKER_00: And the Harlem Globetrotters.
- 1:56:46SPEAKER_03: Harlem Globetrotters were a big thing.
- 1:56:48SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:56:50SPEAKER_03: Used to watch that shit.
- 1:56:50SPEAKER_00: Curly Neal.
- 1:56:51SPEAKER_03: Curly Neal.
- 1:56:53SPEAKER_00: And Metal Lark Lemon.
- 1:56:54SPEAKER_03: Metal Lark Lemon.
- 1:56:55SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 1:56:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah, those were the good days.
- 1:56:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was fun.
- 1:57:00SPEAKER_01: Those were fun times.
- 1:57:01SPEAKER_01: Now there's nothing like that.
- 1:57:03SPEAKER_01: Now it's all just shit for money.
- 1:57:09SPEAKER_03: And that's the one thing,
- 1:57:10SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 1:57:10SPEAKER_03: if this happened today,
- 1:57:11SPEAKER_03: you'd be, first thing you'd hear is evil is doing this for $18 million.
- 1:57:15SPEAKER_01: You know, that would be the first thing you'd hear.
- 1:57:18SPEAKER_01: Not this guy's got a fucking challenge in his head that he's got to, got to take on.
- 1:57:24SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 1:57:24SPEAKER_03: Different time.
- 1:57:25SPEAKER_03: That's for sure, man.
- 1:57:26SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:57:26SPEAKER_00: Well, well, again,
- 1:57:28SPEAKER_00: like I said, uh,
- 1:57:29SPEAKER_00: technological advances and modern technology has made it to where it's,
- 1:57:34SPEAKER_00: you know, It's just not fun anymore.
- 1:57:37SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's not fun.
- 1:57:38SPEAKER_00: Everything's, you know, pre-packaged, pre-planned, no rawness about anything.
- 1:57:45SPEAKER_00: Just all junk.
- 1:57:49SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 1:57:52SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 1:57:53SPEAKER_00: Well, I say we jump back into some tunage.
- 1:57:55SPEAKER_00: What do you say?
- 1:57:56SPEAKER_00: I'm in.
- 1:57:57SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 1:57:58SPEAKER_00: Well, I got a request here for some wasps.
- 1:58:00SPEAKER_00: Wasps is currently out on tour with KK's Priest.
- 1:58:06SPEAKER_00: I have tickets for that.
- 1:58:07SPEAKER_00: Nice.
- 1:58:08SPEAKER_00: At the Displanes Theater.
- 1:58:11SPEAKER_00: So looking forward to that.
- 1:58:13SPEAKER_00: But Blackie's still putting on good shows.
- 1:58:18SPEAKER_00: And of course, I'm looking forward to seeing KK's Priest.
- 1:58:20SPEAKER_00: I haven't seen them at all.
- 1:58:22SPEAKER_00: And our good friend Tim Ripper Owens on lead vocal.
- 1:58:26SPEAKER_00: So looking forward to that.
- 1:58:28SPEAKER_01: Get to see the new bald in shape, Tim Ripper Owens.
- 1:58:31SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 1:58:32SPEAKER_00: I saw a little footage today.
- 1:58:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he's.
- 1:58:35SPEAKER_01: Shaved his
- 1:58:35SPEAKER_03: head, got all
- 1:58:36SPEAKER_00: ripped now.
- 1:58:37SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 1:58:38SPEAKER_00: Good for him.
- 1:58:38SPEAKER_00: Good for him.
- 1:58:39SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 1:58:40SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 1:58:41SPEAKER_00: Well, my nephew, James, wants to hear some wasp with some 9-5 nasty.
- 1:58:46SPEAKER_00: All right, cool.
- 1:58:49SPEAKER_00: So here's wasp exclusively here.
- 1:58:52SPEAKER_00: On your classic metal show.
- 1:59:07SPEAKER_02: Hello?
- 1:59:07SPEAKER_02: Good afternoon.
- 1:59:08SPEAKER_02: How are you?
- 1:59:09SPEAKER_02: I'm good.
- 1:59:10SPEAKER_02: I'm just in the middle of an actual confessional church, but I got time.
- 1:59:15SPEAKER_02: Oh, you're a church?
- 1:59:16SPEAKER_02: I don't want to bother you.
- 1:59:17SPEAKER_02: No, it's okay.
- 1:59:17SPEAKER_02: I'm not the confessional, but the priest isn't here.
- 1:59:19SPEAKER_02: I've been here for like 20 minutes, so I got time.
- 1:59:21SPEAKER_02: Okay, real quick.
- 1:59:23SPEAKER_02: This is a mortgage.
- 1:59:25SPEAKER_02: Now, were you looking to pay off debt or make some home improvements?
- 1:59:29SPEAKER_02: Both, actually.
- 1:59:30SPEAKER_02: Man, I haven't been a confessional in years.
- 1:59:32SPEAKER_02: I don't even know how it works anymore to you.
- 1:59:34SPEAKER_02: Confession?
- 1:59:36SPEAKER_02: Excuse me?
- 1:59:37SPEAKER_02: Are you asking me if I know?
- 1:59:40SPEAKER_02: I'm just honestly a little stunned.
- 1:59:42SPEAKER_02: I'm Catholic.
- 1:59:43SPEAKER_02: I don't understand.
- 1:59:45SPEAKER_02: Like, that's not okay.
- 1:59:47SPEAKER_02: What's not okay?
- 1:59:48SPEAKER_02: You should probably say something about this in your confession.
- 1:59:53SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 1:59:53SPEAKER_02: Is it a joke to you?
- 1:59:55SPEAKER_02: No, I was asking you if you knew.
- 1:59:56SPEAKER_02: I haven't been here in a while.
- 1:59:58SPEAKER_02: I'm just having a conversation with you.
- 2:00:00SPEAKER_02: Why are you asking me is what I'm...
- 2:00:03SPEAKER_02: I'm confused.
- 2:00:04SPEAKER_02: I'm a little bit taken back.
- 2:00:06SPEAKER_02: You're taken back.
- 2:00:06SPEAKER_02: And I'm honestly uncomfortable.
- 2:00:08SPEAKER_02: I don't think you believe in... Maybe you should leave that church.
- 2:00:11SPEAKER_02: No, I'm... You're not a good person.
- 2:00:14SPEAKER_02: Why am I not a good person?
- 2:00:15SPEAKER_02: I don't like this.
- 2:00:18SPEAKER_02: I'm asking for advice.
- 2:00:19SPEAKER_02: I'm in the confessional right now waiting for the priest.
- 2:00:22SPEAKER_02: That's why I just asked you that question.
- 2:00:23SPEAKER_02: That's awesome.
- 2:00:24SPEAKER_02: It wasn't out of the blue.
- 2:00:25SPEAKER_02: Congratulations.
- 2:00:26SPEAKER_02: You're at a church.
- 2:00:27SPEAKER_02: There's deacons.
- 2:00:28SPEAKER_02: There's everybody around you.
- 2:00:29SPEAKER_02: James, you got to take care of yourself a little bit better.
- 2:00:32SPEAKER_02: You can't be in a church and talk like that.
- 2:00:34SPEAKER_02: Well, that's why I'm in the confessional.
- 2:00:36SPEAKER_02: I'm trying to get better.
- 2:00:37SPEAKER_02: Oh, hello?
- 2:00:38SPEAKER_02: Hi.
- 2:00:40SPEAKER_01: Hi, this is Father Don.
- 2:00:41SPEAKER_01: Do you have any sins you'd like to confess, son?
- 2:00:45SPEAKER_02: Is using a butt plug a sin?
- 2:00:48SPEAKER_02: You can't be in a church and talk like that.
- 2:00:50SPEAKER_02: Technically, it's not.
- 2:00:53SPEAKER_02: James, God's looking at you right now, and he doesn't like what he sees.
- 2:00:57SPEAKER_02: What if I used it on myself?
- 2:01:00SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna have to look that one up.
- 2:01:26SPEAKER_00: With lead boots for Ben Benjamin and Jeff Beck with morning dew for four heady trunk
- 2:01:33SPEAKER_00: and came off that block.
- 2:01:35SPEAKER_00: We heard Mata Hoople, one of the boys for Chris by Jackal.
- 2:01:41SPEAKER_00: I was paying no attention.
- 2:01:43SPEAKER_01: You're not a fan of Mata Hoople?
- 2:01:46SPEAKER_01: Oh, no, I'm talking about you.
- 2:01:48SPEAKER_01: Literally, I had it playing in the headphones.
- 2:01:52SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:01:53SPEAKER_01: And you started talking and I was like, oh, shit.
- 2:01:57SPEAKER_01: Because I know that means that I'm already,
- 2:01:59SPEAKER_01: you've already been talking for like 30 seconds, so.
- 2:02:02SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
- 2:02:03SPEAKER_01: Sorry,
- 2:02:03SPEAKER_01: people that are watching this for the first time that you got a cutoff beginning,
- 2:02:08SPEAKER_00: but you did.
- 2:02:10SPEAKER_00: It's like, oh, I got to go live.
- 2:02:11SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's like, fuck, what happened here?
- 2:02:14SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:02:15SPEAKER_00: Well, one of the pieces of rock music history that I'm proud to own,
- 2:02:23SPEAKER_00: I'm sure you remember this,
- 2:02:25SPEAKER_00: Black Sabbath was out doing CD signings for The Last Supper.
- 2:02:31SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:02:33SPEAKER_00: And I went to that and... Ooh,
- 2:02:38SPEAKER_01: can't get that anymore.
- 2:02:43SPEAKER_01: Isn't it crazy that Ozzy is like no longer?
- 2:02:47SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but he signed his and gold.
- 2:02:51SPEAKER_01: Well, he was more special than the other guys.
- 2:02:56SPEAKER_00: There it is.
- 2:03:00SPEAKER_00: So that's a very valuable piece in my collection.
- 2:03:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no kidding.
- 2:03:05SPEAKER_00: That's a good piece to have.
- 2:03:07SPEAKER_00: It is.
- 2:03:08SPEAKER_00: It's a great piece to have.
- 2:03:10SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:03:10SPEAKER_00: But the crowd at that mall, do you remember what the mall was?
- 2:03:15SPEAKER_00: It was up there off of 90.
- 2:03:17SPEAKER_00: It was just,
- 2:03:18SPEAKER_00: you go up 271 and go 90 east and then you get off at the first exit and there's
- 2:03:25SPEAKER_00: a mall there.
- 2:03:25SPEAKER_01: Was that Great Northern?
- 2:03:28SPEAKER_00: Great Northern Mall.
- 2:03:30SPEAKER_00: I think you're correct.
- 2:03:32SPEAKER_00: The crowd was amazingly thick.
- 2:03:35SPEAKER_00: I'll bet.
- 2:03:36SPEAKER_00: And they were pushing and shoving.
- 2:03:38SPEAKER_00: That was one of the first times I actually had a panic attack
- 2:03:42SPEAKER_00: because I was being crushed because literally I couldn't breathe.
- 2:03:48SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:03:49SPEAKER_00: Because people were pushing and shoving so hard
- 2:03:53SPEAKER_00: because Black Sabbath was scheduled only to do,
- 2:03:57SPEAKER_00: I think they were only going to be there like 90 minutes or something.
- 2:04:00SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:04:01SPEAKER_01: 10,000 people or whatever.
- 2:04:02SPEAKER_00: Yes, absolutely.
- 2:04:05SPEAKER_00: And they said, oh, well,
- 2:04:07SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:04:08SPEAKER_00: they were trying to encourage people to leave the line because they said,
- 2:04:12SPEAKER_00: well, you know, they're only going to be here for 10 more minutes.
- 2:04:15SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:04:15SPEAKER_00: So that's when people started pushing.
- 2:04:18SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 2:04:19SPEAKER_00: Because they were just like, well, if I push, maybe the line will go faster.
- 2:04:23SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 2:04:23SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
- 2:04:24SPEAKER_00: And I literally was back to chest with people and it was crushing the air out of me.
- 2:04:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:04:32SPEAKER_00: You know, but then they said, everybody relax.
- 2:04:36SPEAKER_00: They agreed to stay for another hour.
- 2:04:39SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:04:40SPEAKER_00: You know, but I literally was panicking because I was crushing people.
- 2:04:47SPEAKER_00: You know,
- 2:04:47SPEAKER_00: because I remember that like I was being just like
- 2:04:51SPEAKER_00: the air was being pushed right out of me.
- 2:04:54SPEAKER_00: I could not breathe because everybody was crushing forward.
- 2:04:57SPEAKER_01: You never were a mosh pit guy, were you?
- 2:05:00SPEAKER_01: No.
- 2:05:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, guys, I say that's every show.
- 2:05:04SPEAKER_01: That's pretty much every
- 2:05:05SPEAKER_00: show I ever went to.
- 2:05:06SPEAKER_00: But this was a packed meet and greet thing and people were just like,
- 2:05:13SPEAKER_00: Freaking out because they made the announcement that Black Sabbath was leaving.
- 2:05:17SPEAKER_00: And they were just like, holy fuck.
- 2:05:19SPEAKER_00: And it was just all of a sudden.
- 2:05:21SPEAKER_00: I mean, it happened so quickly.
- 2:05:24SPEAKER_00: It just reminded me of that whole who thing that happened down in Cincinnati.
- 2:05:32SPEAKER_01: Dude, I thought the same thing when we did the Pantera meet and greet.
- 2:05:35SPEAKER_01: When everybody started chanting riot and banging on the windows,
- 2:05:38SPEAKER_01: I was like, holy fuck, someone's going to die.
- 2:05:40SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:05:41SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:05:42SPEAKER_01: And literally,
- 2:05:43SPEAKER_01: we were all in the store talking about,
- 2:05:44SPEAKER_01: we're going to run out the back door and keep on running.
- 2:05:46SPEAKER_01: Fuck the store.
- 2:05:48SPEAKER_01: We were like, we are not stopping.
- 2:05:50SPEAKER_01: We are getting the fuck out of here.
- 2:05:53SPEAKER_00: That shit happens so quickly that there's really nothing you can do about it.
- 2:06:00SPEAKER_01: Dude, probably the worst I ever got beat up like that was Day on the Green.
- 2:06:05SPEAKER_01: When I went to Day on the Green...
- 2:06:07SPEAKER_01: Because what they did was they fenced off.
- 2:06:09SPEAKER_01: The infield was at Oakland where the A's used to play.
- 2:06:12SPEAKER_01: And it was at Oakland.
- 2:06:14SPEAKER_01: What was that place called?
- 2:06:15SPEAKER_01: Oakland County Coliseum or Alameda County or whatever.
- 2:06:20SPEAKER_01: And they fenced off the infield so that you couldn't tear up the infield.
- 2:06:24SPEAKER_01: But the whole outfield,
- 2:06:25SPEAKER_01: they kind of catty cornered the stage so that it was like in right field kind of
- 2:06:33SPEAKER_01: and facing outward.
- 2:06:35SPEAKER_01: And the whole...
- 2:06:37SPEAKER_01: Outfield of a major league baseball stadium was a mosh pit.
- 2:06:42SPEAKER_01: It was fucking nuts.
- 2:06:45SPEAKER_01: And by the time Metallica came on, I mean, people were crying.
- 2:06:51SPEAKER_01: I was getting just beat to shit.
- 2:06:54SPEAKER_01: I mean, I got beat up so bad at that show.
- 2:06:57SPEAKER_01: And I remember when I got home,
- 2:07:03SPEAKER_01: it's weird the dumb things you remember.
- 2:07:06SPEAKER_01: But I get home and I remember I was wearing a pair
- 2:07:09SPEAKER_01: of purple John Lennon-like sunglasses at this thing and I lost those.
- 2:07:17SPEAKER_01: Do you remember when Motley was touring on Dr.
- 2:07:19SPEAKER_01: Feelgood and Vince Neil was wearing the red and white spider shirts?
- 2:07:25SPEAKER_01: They were black shirts with red spider webs or white spider webs.
- 2:07:29SPEAKER_01: Do you remember those?
- 2:07:30SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:07:31SPEAKER_01: I was wearing a red spider shirt and And a pair of spandex,
- 2:07:37SPEAKER_01: long, long spandex pants, dressed like a fucking idiot.
- 2:07:42SPEAKER_01: And I remember I got home and it was probably four or five in the morning by
- 2:07:47SPEAKER_01: the time I got home.
- 2:07:49SPEAKER_01: And Georgetta was there and she's like, she's like, what the fuck?
- 2:07:53SPEAKER_01: Why were you so late?
- 2:07:54SPEAKER_01: I thought you were dead, you know, blah, blah, blah, you know, the normal shit.
- 2:07:58SPEAKER_01: And I just remember I was talking to her.
- 2:08:00SPEAKER_01: I was telling her about how great the show was or whatever.
- 2:08:02SPEAKER_01: I was like, it was the best fucking time ever.
- 2:08:04SPEAKER_01: And I kind of turned around to get like a different shirt or something.
- 2:08:09SPEAKER_01: And I took off that shirt.
- 2:08:10SPEAKER_01: And she's like, what the fuck happened to you?
- 2:08:13SPEAKER_00: Were you all bruised up?
- 2:08:14SPEAKER_01: I was like, my back looked like I was wearing a black t-shirt.
- 2:08:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you were like Pyle in, what is that?
- 2:08:28SPEAKER_00: What's that movie?
- 2:08:31SPEAKER_01: Oh, not Heartbreak Ridge.
- 2:08:35SPEAKER_01: I know what you're talking about.
- 2:08:36SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 2:08:37SPEAKER_01: God damn it.
- 2:08:38SPEAKER_01: Where they beat him with the soap.
- 2:08:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:08:42SPEAKER_01: Been there.
- 2:08:44SPEAKER_01: Full metal jacket.
- 2:08:45SPEAKER_01: Full metal jacket, yeah.
- 2:08:46SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:08:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I've been there with the fucking blanket party with the soap, too.
- 2:08:49SPEAKER_01: That ain't fun.
- 2:08:51SPEAKER_01: That's not fun, especially when you get hit in the face.
- 2:08:54SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:08:54SPEAKER_01: It's not so bad getting hit in the stomach or whatever.
- 2:08:56SPEAKER_01: You know, you can handle that.
- 2:08:57SPEAKER_01: But man, when you take a fucking bar of soap to the face, that hurts.
- 2:09:03SPEAKER_01: But yeah.
- 2:09:04SPEAKER_01: And Hardy Boy, there's plenty of pictures of me.
- 2:09:07SPEAKER_01: If you go on to my own personal Facebook and look at the photos,
- 2:09:11SPEAKER_01: there's plenty of pictures of me in spandex.
- 2:09:13SPEAKER_01: I was in spandex wearing fruit.
- 2:09:15SPEAKER_00: And to Jackal's credit, it was the Mentor Mall.
- 2:09:20SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:09:22SPEAKER_00: So thank you, Jackal.
- 2:09:24SPEAKER_00: He was there as well.
- 2:09:26SPEAKER_01: Of course he was.
- 2:09:28SPEAKER_01: In 1969, when they were signing the first album.
- 2:09:30SPEAKER_01: When they first opened.
- 2:09:32SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:09:34SPEAKER_03: And they were building them all.
- 2:09:36SPEAKER_03: Jim was there.
- 2:09:37SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 2:09:42SPEAKER_01: Too funny.
- 2:09:43SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 2:09:44SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 2:09:44SPEAKER_01: Well, let's talk about some old bands, shall we?
- 2:09:47SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:09:49SPEAKER_01: Slayer played at Rocklahoma last week.
- 2:09:53SPEAKER_00: And they played in Minnesota.
- 2:09:55SPEAKER_00: They're playing a handful.
- 2:09:56SPEAKER_01: Getting ready to play more, yeah.
- 2:09:57SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they're playing a handful of dates.
- 2:10:00SPEAKER_00: And, you know,
- 2:10:02SPEAKER_00: five or six years ago when Slayer quote-unquote called it a day,
- 2:10:07SPEAKER_00: they retired, end of the line, blah, blah, blah.
- 2:10:12SPEAKER_00: And I was just thinking about this today.
- 2:10:14SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 2:10:14SPEAKER_00: I saw them two years ago already when I went.
- 2:10:19SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:10:19SPEAKER_00: And I was just like, Jesus Christ.
- 2:10:22SPEAKER_00: These four guys make a lot of noise for four guys.
- 2:10:28SPEAKER_00: It's just amazing the amount of power that Slayer
- 2:10:38SPEAKER_00: makes with four dudes.
- 2:10:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:10:43SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they are vicious, man.
- 2:10:45SPEAKER_01: Always have been too.
- 2:10:46SPEAKER_01: And to be honest, what you see now, not as vicious as it used to be.
- 2:10:50SPEAKER_01: I know, but still it's impressive.
- 2:10:53SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 2:10:53SPEAKER_01: I mean, how many times have you seen, you've only seen them like in the recent years, right?
- 2:10:59SPEAKER_01: You didn't see them in the nineties or the eighties or anything.
- 2:11:02SPEAKER_00: No, no, I wasn't,
- 2:11:04SPEAKER_00: I didn't go,
- 2:11:04SPEAKER_00: but I've seen them, you know, I've seen them in the, before they retired.
- 2:11:09SPEAKER_00: And then of course, since they've come back.
- 2:11:11SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:11:12SPEAKER_01: I mean, seeing them,
- 2:11:15SPEAKER_01: One of my all-time, all-time favorite shows was that Clash of the Titans show.
- 2:11:20SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:11:22SPEAKER_01: House of Chains, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer.
- 2:11:28SPEAKER_01: I think it was at the Cow Palace there in San Francisco.
- 2:11:32SPEAKER_01: Might have been at Shoreline.
- 2:11:33SPEAKER_01: I don't remember which one.
- 2:11:34SPEAKER_01: But holy shit.
- 2:11:37SPEAKER_01: It was somewhere.
- 2:11:37SPEAKER_01: It must have been the Cow Palace because it was indoors.
- 2:11:41SPEAKER_01: And holy shit.
- 2:11:43SPEAKER_01: I mean...
- 2:11:44SPEAKER_01: The first three bands were heavy as fuck.
- 2:11:47SPEAKER_01: I mean, honestly,
- 2:11:48SPEAKER_01: like House of Chains,
- 2:11:49SPEAKER_01: nobody knew who they were, and they just came out and ripped the place down.
- 2:11:53SPEAKER_01: And then Anthrax was Anthrax.
- 2:11:55SPEAKER_01: They were just, you know, that was on Persistence of Time, which is one of their great albums.
- 2:12:03SPEAKER_01: And Scott Ian had the big clock behind him that was spinning the wrong way,
- 2:12:06SPEAKER_01: and he's like moshing around on it.
- 2:12:09SPEAKER_01: It was cool.
- 2:12:09SPEAKER_01: It was a great set.
- 2:12:11SPEAKER_01: And then...
- 2:12:12SPEAKER_01: Obviously, Megadeth was Megadeth, and that was, you know, Rust in Peace.
- 2:12:18SPEAKER_01: So, I mean, you were on some huge records there.
- 2:12:22SPEAKER_01: And then comes Slayer, Seasons of the Abyss Tour.
- 2:12:25SPEAKER_02: Oh.

- 2:12:59SPEAKER_03: Jesus Christ.
- 2:13:00SPEAKER_03: Like all of a sudden the room started filling up with smoke
- 2:13:05SPEAKER_01: and it just didn't stop filling up with smoke.
- 2:13:09SPEAKER_01: They just kept pumping smoke, pumping smoke until you couldn't really see much of the room.
- 2:13:15SPEAKER_01: And then all of the lights switched off and then into red.
- 2:13:20SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:13:20SPEAKER_01: And the whole set was all red.
- 2:13:22SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:13:23SPEAKER_00: Everything's blood red all the time.
- 2:13:26SPEAKER_00: Slayer just came out.
- 2:13:28SPEAKER_00: They came out and slayed.
- 2:13:30SPEAKER_01: Oh.
- 2:13:32SPEAKER_01: Dude, it was just,
- 2:13:35SPEAKER_01: I saw more people coming out of this thing,
- 2:13:38SPEAKER_01: like coming out of the mosh pit with bloodied faces and bloodied heads because
- 2:13:44SPEAKER_01: the mosh pit was fucking intense.
- 2:13:46SPEAKER_01: And I was in it.
- 2:13:47SPEAKER_01: I mean, I was right down in the middle of it getting the shit kicked out of me
- 2:13:51SPEAKER_01: and it was brutal hard.
- 2:13:54SPEAKER_01: But I mean,
- 2:13:54SPEAKER_01: their music,
- 2:13:55SPEAKER_01: and they're just, you've seen them even now with Gary Holt instead of Hanneman.
- 2:14:00SPEAKER_01: They are relentless.
- 2:14:02SPEAKER_01: They are.
- 2:14:02SPEAKER_01: It is just song after song after song after song.
- 2:14:04SPEAKER_01: There's not a whole bunch of, hey, how's everybody doing tonight?
- 2:14:07SPEAKER_00: How's the Slayer fam?
- 2:14:09SPEAKER_00: You know, the whole thing about their performance.
- 2:14:14SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:14:14SPEAKER_00: If you watch Gary Holt or even,
- 2:14:17SPEAKER_00: you know, Kerry King or Tom Araya, They just, it just seems effortless.
- 2:14:27SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah.
- 2:14:28SPEAKER_00: You know, they,
- 2:14:28SPEAKER_00: they just,
- 2:14:30SPEAKER_00: even you,
- 2:14:30SPEAKER_00: you would think that the way that Tom Arias sings,
- 2:14:35SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:14:35SPEAKER_00: you think he was straining,
- 2:14:37SPEAKER_00: but he just makes it look like it's nothing to just growl into that microphone
- 2:14:42SPEAKER_00: and just bark out the lyrics.
- 2:14:44SPEAKER_01: I think it's a little easier for him now.
- 2:14:46SPEAKER_01: And I'm not, and believe me, I'm not trying to take anything away from what you're saying here.
- 2:14:49SPEAKER_01: Cause I agree.
- 2:14:51SPEAKER_01: But I think it is a little bit easier for him now that he's not headbanging
- 2:14:55SPEAKER_01: and doing the hair twirling and shit that he did forever.
- 2:15:00SPEAKER_00: Well, that's because he wrecked his back.
- 2:15:02SPEAKER_00: He tore up his back.
- 2:15:03SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 2:15:04SPEAKER_00: But still, he barks out those lyrics effortlessly.
- 2:15:09SPEAKER_01: I just remember back in the day at the end of the shows,
- 2:15:13SPEAKER_01: he looked like he had been standing in a waterfall.
- 2:15:17SPEAKER_01: And then back then, too, was when they were dropping the blood on.
- 2:15:20SPEAKER_01: I don't know if they're still doing that or not,
- 2:15:22SPEAKER_01: but they just had buckets of blood up in the roof.
- 2:15:27SPEAKER_03: And when they played Rain and Blood, just dropped down on the band.
- 2:15:31SPEAKER_00: It was raining blood in a lacerated sky.
- 2:15:35SPEAKER_03: It was fucking awesome, dude.
- 2:15:38SPEAKER_03: I can tell you that was another one of those great shows.
- 2:15:42SPEAKER_03: It was weird interviewing them.
- 2:15:43SPEAKER_03: Remember when I interviewed them in person for that?
- 2:15:46SPEAKER_00: Yes, you were.
- 2:15:47SPEAKER_03: Yebo TV.
- 2:15:48SPEAKER_03: Yebo TV,
- 2:15:49SPEAKER_00: that's right.
- 2:15:50SPEAKER_03: And I'm sitting in front of each one of them.
- 2:15:52SPEAKER_03: We did each interview individually.
- 2:15:54SPEAKER_03: And they couldn't have been nicer all but Carrie.
- 2:15:56SPEAKER_03: Carrie's always Carrie.
- 2:15:59SPEAKER_03: But the rest of them, they couldn't have been nicer.
- 2:16:01SPEAKER_01: And then a half hour later, an hour later, they're just like, I'm like, holy shit.
- 2:16:07SPEAKER_01: Where'd these guys come from?
- 2:16:09SPEAKER_01: I was looking for them when I was doing the interviews.
- 2:16:11SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:16:13SPEAKER_01: I'm a big, I love Slayer, man.
- 2:16:14SPEAKER_01: I always have.
- 2:16:15SPEAKER_01: Even the albums people don't like, I like.
- 2:16:18SPEAKER_01: You know, Diabolus in America and whatever.
- 2:16:20SPEAKER_01: I like that.
- 2:16:21SPEAKER_01: It's okay.
- 2:16:22SPEAKER_01: It's listenable.
- 2:16:24SPEAKER_01: The one with Jihad, Christ Inversion.
- 2:16:26SPEAKER_01: That's okay.
- 2:16:28SPEAKER_01: Don't hate it.
- 2:16:30SPEAKER_01: You know, I love me some Slayer.
- 2:16:33SPEAKER_01: Well, they're back, obviously.
- 2:16:36SPEAKER_01: They're back doing tours.
- 2:16:37SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:16:40SPEAKER_01: Would you call these tours or just scattered dates?
- 2:16:43SPEAKER_00: I would call them limited engagements.
- 2:16:47SPEAKER_01: Seems like they're doing a couple every couple of years.
- 2:16:51SPEAKER_01: Like four, five, six shows.
- 2:16:53SPEAKER_01: Isn't this run like six shows maybe?
- 2:16:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's just a handful of shows.
- 2:16:58SPEAKER_00: Like I saw them at Fyre Fest two years ago already.
- 2:17:02SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:17:03SPEAKER_00: And it was a, what do you want to call a,
- 2:17:12SPEAKER_00: It was an assault on all of your senses.
- 2:17:15SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 2:17:16SPEAKER_00: Eyes, ears, you could feel it.
- 2:17:20SPEAKER_00: It was just an assault on your senses.
- 2:17:23SPEAKER_00: It was amazing.
- 2:17:25SPEAKER_00: And even like the pyro is so fucking hot, you feel that.
- 2:17:29SPEAKER_00: Well, I was literally a couple hundred feet back and I could feel the pyro all
- 2:17:34SPEAKER_00: the way back there.
- 2:17:37SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, it is a different kind of show.
- 2:17:40SPEAKER_01: I know everybody talks about the intensity of it,
- 2:17:43SPEAKER_01: and Metallica in the day,
- 2:17:47SPEAKER_01: and I mean in the day,
- 2:17:49SPEAKER_01: like before even Justice,
- 2:17:55SPEAKER_01: Ride the Lightning,
- 2:17:56SPEAKER_01: Master of Puppets Day, is the only band I've ever seen more intense than Slayer.
- 2:18:02SPEAKER_01: But Slayer,
- 2:18:04SPEAKER_01: 45 years later,
- 2:18:05SPEAKER_01: is every bit as intense as they were When I saw him in 1986 or whatever it was,
- 2:18:12SPEAKER_01: when I saw him on Rain and Blood or,
- 2:18:15SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 2:18:15SPEAKER_01: in the earliest days of Slayer when I,
- 2:18:18SPEAKER_01: or my earliest days of Slayer, not the earliest days of them.
- 2:18:22SPEAKER_01: But I mean,
- 2:18:23SPEAKER_01: they have,
- 2:18:24SPEAKER_01: they are the one,
- 2:18:25SPEAKER_01: like I said before, there are no, hey friends, how's the family tonight?
- 2:18:29SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
- 2:18:30SPEAKER_00: None of that.
- 2:18:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:18:32SPEAKER_00: And again,
- 2:18:32SPEAKER_00: Tom Aurea,
- 2:18:34SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:18:34SPEAKER_00: when I saw him two years ago,
- 2:18:37SPEAKER_00: I think this was on maybe the second or the maybe it was the debut show.
- 2:18:42SPEAKER_00: I can't remember.
- 2:18:42SPEAKER_00: But, you know, the reason I went to, you know, Fyre Fest was it's not Fyre Fest.
- 2:18:50SPEAKER_00: But regardless,
- 2:18:51SPEAKER_00: I saw them here in Chicago was because they hadn't been around in five or six years
- 2:18:57SPEAKER_00: because they, quote unquote, retired.
- 2:19:01SPEAKER_00: And I was just like, I gotta go see Slayer.
- 2:19:03SPEAKER_00: You know, I gotta go see these guys, right?
- 2:19:06SPEAKER_00: And he just had such a wry sense of humor about it.
- 2:19:11SPEAKER_00: He goes, did you miss us?
- 2:19:14SPEAKER_00: You know, he was just like, yeah.
- 2:19:17SPEAKER_00: He's like, yeah.
- 2:19:18SPEAKER_00: He goes, yeah.
- 2:19:19SPEAKER_00: Thanks for coming out tonight.
- 2:19:21SPEAKER_00: Did you miss us?
- 2:19:25SPEAKER_00: They're just so good
- 2:19:26SPEAKER_01: live, man, but.
- 2:19:28SPEAKER_01: I have a few questions about it.
- 2:19:29SPEAKER_01: We'll play some of this stuff because considering they're not a full-time band,
- 2:19:35SPEAKER_01: they are better than most full-time bands.
- 2:19:38SPEAKER_01: They're just better.
- 2:19:40SPEAKER_01: I agree.
- 2:19:41SPEAKER_01: They sound better.
- 2:19:42SPEAKER_01: They're playing better than I think they ever have.
- 2:19:45SPEAKER_00: Well, they've had a lot of rest.
- 2:19:48SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:19:49SPEAKER_00: You know, they're fresh.
- 2:19:50SPEAKER_00: They're not worn out by the road.
- 2:19:53SPEAKER_00: They're not worn out by recording.
- 2:19:55SPEAKER_00: They're not...
- 2:19:56SPEAKER_00: You know, doing, making the business of Slayer.
- 2:20:02SPEAKER_00: You know,
- 2:20:02SPEAKER_00: and again,
- 2:20:04SPEAKER_00: over two years ago already,
- 2:20:05SPEAKER_00: I hate to say that,
- 2:20:06SPEAKER_00: but Cary King was releasing or pursuing his own band, the Cary King Band.
- 2:20:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:20:15SPEAKER_00: With... Marcos Agueta.
- 2:20:18SPEAKER_00: Yeah, from... Death Angel.
- 2:20:20SPEAKER_00: Death Angel, which sounded a lot like Slayer.
- 2:20:23SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:20:24SPEAKER_00: And now all of a sudden...
- 2:20:26SPEAKER_00: The core guys of Slayer are back doing a handful of shows,
- 2:20:30SPEAKER_00: and that kind of put the kibosh on Kerry King's thing.
- 2:20:34SPEAKER_01: He's working on that.
- 2:20:35SPEAKER_01: There's a second album coming out.
- 2:20:37SPEAKER_00: Well, but the thing is, it hasn't been that active.
- 2:20:40SPEAKER_01: No.
- 2:20:41SPEAKER_01: And nobody cared, because he put out that From Hell I Rise, or whatever it was called.
- 2:20:46SPEAKER_01: It's a good record.
- 2:20:47SPEAKER_01: It's not great, but it's a pretty darn good record.
- 2:20:50SPEAKER_01: It sounds like Slayer.
- 2:20:51SPEAKER_01: It sounds like Slayer.
- 2:20:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:20:53SPEAKER_01: But then the minute they announced the shows...
- 2:20:56SPEAKER_01: The Slayer shows?
- 2:20:57SPEAKER_01: Nobody cared.
- 2:20:58SPEAKER_01: It was fucking forgotten.
- 2:21:00SPEAKER_00: Yeah, because it's Slayer.
- 2:21:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:21:03SPEAKER_01: You can see Slayer.
- 2:21:03SPEAKER_01: You can see a Slayer knockoff with one guy.
- 2:21:06SPEAKER_01: What are you going to go?
- 2:21:08SPEAKER_01: You're going to go see Slayer.
- 2:21:10SPEAKER_01: You'll take six Slayer shows over a hundred Cary King shows.
- 2:21:17SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you just will.
- 2:21:18SPEAKER_01: It's just better.
- 2:21:21SPEAKER_01: My question is, they've been doing it now.
- 2:21:24SPEAKER_01: They've been doing it so well now.
- 2:21:28SPEAKER_01: Do you think there's talk about trying to do something again,
- 2:21:32SPEAKER_01: or are they just retired other than playing a few shows every couple of years?
- 2:21:38SPEAKER_00: I'm thinking that their asking price,
- 2:21:41SPEAKER_00: whatever that is, is enough to say the Slayer fans are going to be there for us.
- 2:21:48SPEAKER_00: If we do a half a dozen shows a year,
- 2:21:51SPEAKER_00: that's going to pay More than what we would do if we would put out a record
- 2:21:58SPEAKER_00: and go tour.
- 2:22:01SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:22:02SPEAKER_00: You know, so it's just like...
- 2:22:03SPEAKER_01: But you don't think they...
- 2:22:04SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's weird.
- 2:22:06SPEAKER_01: Uriah's been releasing music since he was 18 years old.
- 2:22:12SPEAKER_01: It's weird to think that he's done creating.
- 2:22:15SPEAKER_00: You know, the thing is, is what is the value of creating anything new today?
- 2:22:24SPEAKER_01: It would just be personal, I guess.
- 2:22:26SPEAKER_01: I guess.
- 2:22:27SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 2:22:27SPEAKER_01: I just think for me, and I mean, you're around bands more than I am on the road.
- 2:22:32SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:22:34SPEAKER_01: I would think that the nostalgia thing plays itself out.
- 2:22:38SPEAKER_01: Even if it is only six shows,
- 2:22:41SPEAKER_01: it's still six shows of the same shit they've been playing for 25 years.
- 2:22:46SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm going to tell you something.
- 2:22:48SPEAKER_00: This surprises me as much as the statement I'm going to make.
- 2:22:53SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:22:56SPEAKER_00: I was out with Dokken in Florida for two shows about three or four weeks ago.
- 2:23:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:23:04SPEAKER_00: The fact that George Lynch can come out and play three songs at the end of
- 2:23:10SPEAKER_00: the Dokken set,
- 2:23:13SPEAKER_00: people are still stoked about that,
- 2:23:16SPEAKER_00: even though they've been doing this for six years.
- 2:23:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but that's the fans.
- 2:23:22SPEAKER_00: I'm talking about the band.
- 2:23:24SPEAKER_00: Well, the band, I think all they care about is they can just show up.
- 2:23:29SPEAKER_00: And here's the thing.
- 2:23:30SPEAKER_00: I don't know who's behind their production.
- 2:23:34SPEAKER_00: But, man, they do a good job.
- 2:23:37SPEAKER_00: I don't know who designed their set or their stage props or where the fire comes out
- 2:23:44SPEAKER_00: or where the video, the multimedia shit is, who designs all that.
- 2:23:50SPEAKER_00: But...
- 2:23:51SPEAKER_00: That's not cheap.
- 2:23:52SPEAKER_00: I'm sure that's not cheap, but somebody is paying the bill for that.
- 2:23:57SPEAKER_01: They got to be upper tier as far as their asking price because they're not an active band.
- 2:24:03SPEAKER_00: No, they're not an active band,
- 2:24:05SPEAKER_00: but somebody is willing to pay the price to have this stage show with all the fire
- 2:24:12SPEAKER_00: and the video and all that shit that they do to make it.
- 2:24:17SPEAKER_00: This is what reminds me of Kiss.
- 2:24:20SPEAKER_00: You know,
- 2:24:21SPEAKER_00: KISS always went with the whole pyrotechnic thing and they go,
- 2:24:25SPEAKER_00: you asked for the best,
- 2:24:26SPEAKER_00: you got the best,
- 2:24:28SPEAKER_00: it's KISS,
- 2:24:28SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:24:29SPEAKER_00: and they have this big show and this big,
- 2:24:33SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:24:33SPEAKER_00: KISS is not the most proficient band in the world,
- 2:24:37SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:24:37SPEAKER_00: as far as like musicianship and everything,
- 2:24:40SPEAKER_00: but because the show is so big, it kind of just works.
- 2:24:47SPEAKER_01: No, I get that.
- 2:24:48SPEAKER_01: What I'm saying is,
- 2:24:50SPEAKER_01: aren't they Kiss,
- 2:24:53SPEAKER_01: even Kiss,
- 2:24:54SPEAKER_01: right up until they quit,
- 2:24:56SPEAKER_01: was putting out new music and doing one or two songs during the set.
- 2:25:00SPEAKER_01: They were playing modern-day Delilah and
- 2:25:03SPEAKER_00: shit like that.
- 2:25:04SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but I think Slayer,
- 2:25:06SPEAKER_00: and I think it's mostly Tom or Raya,
- 2:25:10SPEAKER_00: I think he's kind of like,
- 2:25:12SPEAKER_00: well, you know, I'd kind of be happy to work on my ranch in Arizona, you know?
- 2:25:18SPEAKER_00: Herding sheep or whatever the fuck he does.
- 2:25:20SPEAKER_00: Yeah, whatever he's doing.
- 2:25:21SPEAKER_00: But he's not that old.
- 2:25:24SPEAKER_00: He's 60, what, 62 or something?
- 2:25:26SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and it's just like, okay, I've been retired for five or six years now.
- 2:25:33SPEAKER_00: I can do a half a dozen shows.
- 2:25:36SPEAKER_00: And put seven or eight figures in his bank.
- 2:25:39SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:25:40SPEAKER_00: And look at the crowd that shows up for this.
- 2:25:42SPEAKER_00: I mean, if they were to come through the Chicago area as much as I hate Chicago,
- 2:25:47SPEAKER_00: I would go again because it's just an assault on your senses.
- 2:25:55SPEAKER_00: It's just amazing.
- 2:25:57SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 2:25:58SPEAKER_01: I totally agree.
- 2:25:59SPEAKER_01: I'm glad that I've seen them a zillion and five times.
- 2:26:03SPEAKER_01: But the only negative to all those times I've seen them, it's always the same set.
- 2:26:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, maybe.
- 2:26:09SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's been a very similar set since
- 2:26:17SPEAKER_01: God Hates Us All, so 2001.
- 2:26:20SPEAKER_01: That's really when they stopped adjusting the set a lot.
- 2:26:26SPEAKER_01: And I mean,
- 2:26:26SPEAKER_01: this tour, I mean,
- 2:26:27SPEAKER_01: they are adjusting the set because they're playing Rain and Blood in its entirety,
- 2:26:30SPEAKER_01: which is cool.
- 2:26:30SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and I've heard...
- 2:26:34SPEAKER_00: They didn't play Skeletons of Society in a couple of shows.
- 2:26:39SPEAKER_00: People were kind of disappointed about that.
- 2:26:41SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:26:43SPEAKER_01: Well, that's the whole thing, though.
- 2:26:44SPEAKER_01: You played a whole album of something.
- 2:26:46SPEAKER_01: Something's getting cut.
- 2:26:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it does.
- 2:26:50SPEAKER_01: I mean, look,
- 2:26:51SPEAKER_01: me and you,
- 2:26:52SPEAKER_01: we'd be happy if they just played fucking Season of the Abyss from start to finish
- 2:26:57SPEAKER_01: and then left.
- 2:26:58SPEAKER_01: Wouldn't even care.
- 2:26:59SPEAKER_01: I don't even need to hear Angel of Death or Rain and Blood or any of those songs anymore.
- 2:27:03SPEAKER_01: Just give me seasons from start to finish, and I'm good.
- 2:27:06SPEAKER_01: I'd be good.
- 2:27:07SPEAKER_01: Would you?
- 2:27:09SPEAKER_00: It's a, what, seven-minute song?
- 2:27:12SPEAKER_01: No, I'm talking about the whole album.
- 2:27:13SPEAKER_00: Oh, you mean the whole album?
- 2:27:14SPEAKER_01: The whole album.
- 2:27:16SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, of course.
- 2:27:17SPEAKER_01: That would be enough for me.
- 2:27:18SPEAKER_01: I don't need to see.
- 2:27:20SPEAKER_01: I certainly don't need to hear Bloodline anymore.
- 2:27:22SPEAKER_01: I don't need to hear, you know, Jihad or 213 or any of those.
- 2:27:28SPEAKER_01: I don't need to hear those songs.
- 2:27:30SPEAKER_01: I like it as a good change-up.
- 2:27:32SPEAKER_01: You know, me with my serial killer obsession, I like here in 213, the whole Dahmer thing.
- 2:27:37SPEAKER_01: But, you know, I mean,
- 2:27:40SPEAKER_01: other than that, though,
- 2:27:41SPEAKER_01: if you gave me a choice of what they're playing now and what they played in 1991,
- 2:27:51SPEAKER_01: it's a no-brainer.
- 2:27:52SPEAKER_01: I'd take the 91 set and give a shit about anything they released after it,
- 2:27:58SPEAKER_01: enough to be like, damn, how come they're not adding that?
- 2:28:03SPEAKER_01: But it's weird to think of Slayer, and this is where I'm going with this.
- 2:28:08SPEAKER_01: It's weird for me to think of Slayer as a finished entity that is now just
- 2:28:14SPEAKER_01: a fucking nostalgia act.
- 2:28:18SPEAKER_00: And they are.
- 2:28:20SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they are.
- 2:28:22SPEAKER_00: They're a limited run thing.
- 2:28:25SPEAKER_00: And because they're limited run,
- 2:28:28SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:28:28SPEAKER_00: half a dozen shows in a year, People are going to, I don't want to miss that.
- 2:28:33SPEAKER_00: Holy shit, it's Slayer.
- 2:28:34SPEAKER_00: They're back.
- 2:28:35SPEAKER_00: They haven't been around in six or seven years or whatever it is.
- 2:28:38SPEAKER_00: And they're only playing six shows in the U.S. Yeah.
- 2:28:42SPEAKER_01: And what is also helping them is that they're playing at the top level.
- 2:28:47SPEAKER_01: Because Lord knows if David Lee Roth announced tomorrow
- 2:28:50SPEAKER_01: that he was playing six shows, limited run, no one's going.
- 2:28:54SPEAKER_01: Because there's so much video of him sucking.
- 2:28:57SPEAKER_00: And Slayer's been away for a while.
- 2:29:00SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:29:02SPEAKER_01: That's it too.
- 2:29:02SPEAKER_01: That does help them.
- 2:29:05SPEAKER_01: It's been a good, good minute since they released music and, um, and even toured really.
- 2:29:10SPEAKER_01: I mean, you got lucky to go see them, but it, again, it was limited engagement.
- 2:29:15SPEAKER_01: Unless you're willing to travel,
- 2:29:16SPEAKER_01: you really didn't see them, you know, unless you were in LA or New York or Chicago.
- 2:29:22SPEAKER_00: And they only played the big festival shows because,
- 2:29:25SPEAKER_00: because they played, um,
- 2:29:28SPEAKER_00: They played the show here two years ago,
- 2:29:31SPEAKER_00: and then I think last year that they played that show in Kentucky.
- 2:29:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Louder Than Life.
- 2:29:38SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:29:38SPEAKER_00: So they're only selecting these major events to play.
- 2:29:48SPEAKER_01: Do you think they could do,
- 2:29:50SPEAKER_01: and I'm talking on a very limited basis,
- 2:29:54SPEAKER_01: are they big enough that they could play Three stadiums.
- 2:29:58SPEAKER_01: Chicago, LA, New York.
- 2:30:01SPEAKER_01: I think so.
- 2:30:02SPEAKER_01: God, can you imagine seeing them in a stadium?
- 2:30:05SPEAKER_00: Jesus Christ.
- 2:30:06SPEAKER_00: But see, the thing is, is Rush has been away for a while.
- 2:30:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:30:12SPEAKER_00: And they're doing well with their big shows.
- 2:30:16SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:30:16SPEAKER_00: You know, so that's the whole thing.
- 2:30:18SPEAKER_00: It's just like, well, we've been gone for, you know, half a decade.
- 2:30:23SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:30:23SPEAKER_00: So we're going to do...
- 2:30:26SPEAKER_00: Sick shows this year.
- 2:30:28SPEAKER_00: Here's, here's where they are.
- 2:30:32SPEAKER_00: You miss us.
- 2:30:32SPEAKER_00: You miss us.
- 2:30:34SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:30:36SPEAKER_03: Do you think they're going to continue this, this, um, I think so.
- 2:30:40SPEAKER_03: Like, like two years from now, they'll play all of, I don't know, seasons or whatever.
- 2:30:47SPEAKER_03: Maybe.
- 2:30:49SPEAKER_01: God, if they do that, that's a travel show.
- 2:30:52SPEAKER_00: But I think their asking price is probably pretty good.
- 2:30:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:30:58SPEAKER_00: And they can draw the fans.
- 2:31:00SPEAKER_01: Of course.
- 2:31:02SPEAKER_01: How much would you be willing?
- 2:31:03SPEAKER_01: We were talking earlier about the crazy price of tickets.
- 2:31:07SPEAKER_01: How much are you willing to go if the show is Seasons in the Abyss start to finish
- 2:31:15SPEAKER_01: and then some Slayer songs behind it?
- 2:31:18SPEAKER_01: Even if it's just like four songs behind it?
- 2:31:21SPEAKER_00: $250.
- 2:31:22SPEAKER_01: $250?
- 2:31:23SPEAKER_00: That's it.
- 2:31:24SPEAKER_01: I got a feeling you wouldn't get into that show.
- 2:31:26SPEAKER_01: Well, again, I'm just telling you what I'm willing to pay.
- 2:31:30SPEAKER_01: No, I get it.
- 2:31:30SPEAKER_01: I don't think the tickets would be that low, do you?
- 2:31:35SPEAKER_00: No, but I'm just telling you what I'm willing to pay.
- 2:31:39SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:31:41SPEAKER_02: New York's heavy metal titans are back.
- 2:31:44SPEAKER_02: After 10 years, Anthrax unleashes their 12th studio album, Curse Em Perficio, September 18th.
- 2:31:53SPEAKER_02: This is the sound of legends completing their journey.
- 2:31:57SPEAKER_02: Curse Em Perficio, my journey is over.
- 2:32:01SPEAKER_02: First single, It's For The Kids, is a buzz saw riff monster.
- 2:32:05SPEAKER_02: Explosive drums, howling hooks, and pure Anthrax destruction.
- 2:32:11SPEAKER_02: Scott Ian,
- 2:32:12SPEAKER_02: Charlie Benanti,
- 2:32:13SPEAKER_02: Frank Bellow,
- 2:32:14SPEAKER_02: Joey Belladonna,
- 2:32:15SPEAKER_02: and Jonathan DeNice deliver the thrash masterpiece you've been waiting for.
- 2:32:20SPEAKER_02: Get the two-disc vinyl set right now, available at the bottom of your screen.
- 2:32:24SPEAKER_02: Anthrax, Curse them, Perficia, September 18th.
- 2:32:29SPEAKER_02: This is the one you've been waiting for.
- 2:32:31SPEAKER_01: It'd be great if they just put back together the Clash of the Titans lineup again.
- 2:32:38SPEAKER_03: Alice in Chains, Anthra.
- 2:32:39SPEAKER_00: I mean, they're all still active.
- 2:32:40SPEAKER_00: Can you imagine how expensive that would be,
- 2:32:43SPEAKER_00: though, in today's dollars to get Alice in Chains, Megadeth, and Slayer on one bill?
- 2:32:52SPEAKER_01: Megadeth, I don't think would be that expensive.
- 2:32:55SPEAKER_01: Honestly, I mean,
- 2:32:56SPEAKER_01: I see Megadeth opening for a lot of bands that's almost embarrassing
- 2:33:00SPEAKER_01: when they're opening for Five Finger Death Punch or whatever.
- 2:33:02SPEAKER_01: That's You know, their stock has gone down.
- 2:33:06SPEAKER_01: I think Dave Mustaine changing out musicians,
- 2:33:10SPEAKER_01: you know, like their fucking underwear has really taken its toll on that band.
- 2:33:16SPEAKER_01: I don't think even promoters do not hold the Megadeth name because they know the fans don't.
- 2:33:23SPEAKER_00: Because they don't have any connection.
- 2:33:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:33:25SPEAKER_01: But they know the fans don't either.
- 2:33:27SPEAKER_01: The fans, every fan you talk to is like, ah, it's just a Dave Mustaine solo band.
- 2:33:33SPEAKER_01: Nobody considers it Megadeth anymore.
- 2:33:35SPEAKER_00: Well, it's like Wasp.
- 2:33:37SPEAKER_01: Blackie Wallace and his guys.
- 2:33:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:33:41SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 2:33:41SPEAKER_01: I mean, there's a lot of them.
- 2:33:43SPEAKER_01: It's like your boys in Dokken.
- 2:33:45SPEAKER_01: It's Don and his boys.
- 2:33:47SPEAKER_01: True.
- 2:33:48SPEAKER_01: You know, I mean, that's what it is.
- 2:33:49SPEAKER_00: And I even say that myself.
- 2:33:51SPEAKER_00: I say I'm going out with the Dokken boys.
- 2:33:53SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:33:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's not.
- 2:33:56SPEAKER_00: I mean, that's not Dokken.
- 2:33:57SPEAKER_00: I mean, it's been a solid lineup for years, but it's not.
- 2:34:02SPEAKER_00: What people remember.
- 2:34:04SPEAKER_01: It ain't been that many years either.
- 2:34:06SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's been, what, eight, nine years or whatever?
- 2:34:09SPEAKER_00: Oh, it's been longer than
- 2:34:10SPEAKER_01: that.
- 2:34:10SPEAKER_01: Has it?
- 2:34:11SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
- 2:34:12SPEAKER_01: Because, I mean, we saw him with McNabb and there was Mark Bowles.
- 2:34:16SPEAKER_00: But that was 2013, though.
- 2:34:18SPEAKER_00: Jesus Christ.
- 2:34:19SPEAKER_01: Time is just zipping.
- 2:34:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:34:22SPEAKER_01: I mean, we've seen different lineups here and there.
- 2:34:25SPEAKER_00: But this lineup since Mick retired has been together since 2017.
- 2:34:34SPEAKER_01: So nine years.
- 2:34:35SPEAKER_00: So almost 10 years.
- 2:34:37SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:34:39SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:34:40SPEAKER_01: God, that's crazy to even think about that Mick has been retired for 10 years.
- 2:34:46SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:34:47SPEAKER_01: Oh.
- 2:34:49SPEAKER_01: Well, anyway,
- 2:34:49SPEAKER_01: pulling back to Slayer,
- 2:34:51SPEAKER_01: I just was – I'm – I'm stunned that they are still as big as they are.
- 2:34:57SPEAKER_01: I love it.
- 2:34:59SPEAKER_01: I love it.
- 2:35:01SPEAKER_01: I wish the other bands that are out there,
- 2:35:05SPEAKER_01: and I'm talking top down,
- 2:35:06SPEAKER_01: Metallica down, would watch these videos and say, this is what we need to be doing.
- 2:35:14SPEAKER_01: Because they are so much better than anybody not named Testament in the In the landscape.
- 2:35:22SPEAKER_01: And I think they're probably better than Testament two right now.
- 2:35:25SPEAKER_01: I mean, they are proverbially and literally on fire on these shows, man.
- 2:35:30SPEAKER_00: They are.
- 2:35:31SPEAKER_00: I agree.
- 2:35:32SPEAKER_00: So let's play a little, but,
- 2:35:33SPEAKER_00: but they're not,
- 2:35:34SPEAKER_00: they're not over played and they're not tired and you know,
- 2:35:39SPEAKER_00: they don't, they don't do a tour cycle.
- 2:35:42SPEAKER_00: They play six shows and they're done.
- 2:35:45SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:35:48SPEAKER_01: Go home rich, fat and.
- 2:35:51SPEAKER_01: See you guys in two years.
- 2:35:53SPEAKER_00: What do you think Slayer commands as a performance price?
- 2:35:58SPEAKER_00: What do you think their price is?
- 2:36:02SPEAKER_01: Got to be a hundred and a half or more.
- 2:36:04SPEAKER_00: Oh, I think it's higher than that.
- 2:36:07SPEAKER_00: I think it's 250.
- 2:36:07SPEAKER_01: It could be.
- 2:36:10SPEAKER_00: I think it's 250.
- 2:36:11SPEAKER_00: That's my guess.
- 2:36:12SPEAKER_00: I have no idea.
- 2:36:13SPEAKER_00: I have no inside knowledge about this, but I'm thinking quarter mil.
- 2:36:18SPEAKER_01: Could easily be that.
- 2:36:19SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 2:36:20SPEAKER_01: Could be a mil.
- 2:36:21SPEAKER_01: Who knows?
- 2:36:22SPEAKER_00: Could be.
- 2:36:22SPEAKER_01: I mean, they are the headliner
- 2:36:24SPEAKER_00: whenever they play.
- 2:36:25SPEAKER_00: But my realistic thought, I'm thinking $250.
- 2:36:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:36:32SPEAKER_01: So even at $250,
- 2:36:34SPEAKER_01: six shows,
- 2:36:34SPEAKER_01: a million and a half,
- 2:36:39SPEAKER_01: split between two guys and then paying two guys as salaried guys?
- 2:36:45SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 2:36:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that wouldn't suck.
- 2:36:51SPEAKER_01: It's a pretty good summer vacation.
- 2:36:54SPEAKER_00: To play six shows?
- 2:36:56SPEAKER_01: That's what I'm saying.
- 2:36:57SPEAKER_01: It's a pretty good summer vacation.
- 2:36:59SPEAKER_01: Go out for two or three weeks, you're done.
- 2:37:03SPEAKER_01: Another half a million in the bank?
- 2:37:05SPEAKER_01: That would not suck.
- 2:37:07SPEAKER_01: All right, let's watch a little Slayer, just because...
- 2:37:11SPEAKER_01: Don't even have any real reason to watch it other than it's Slayer.
- 2:37:14SPEAKER_00: I like to see it.
- 2:37:15SPEAKER_00: I love it.
- 2:37:17SPEAKER_00: I sent you a video the other day when they were playing in Minneapolis.
- 2:37:22SPEAKER_00: And I think my comment was, it's hard to believe four guys can make this much noise.
- 2:37:27SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they're just pummeling, man.
- 2:37:30SPEAKER_01: Let's check it out.
- 2:37:31SPEAKER_01: Here's some Slayer.
- 2:37:33SPEAKER_01: Here we go.
- 2:37:51SPEAKER_01: Jesus Christ.
- 2:37:52SPEAKER_01: I'm Swiss, the myth,
- 2:37:58the pain,
- 2:38:11SPEAKER_02: the way that I want you to die.
- 2:38:14SPEAKER_02: Through death, he missed the game, shout the clergy of your life.
- 2:38:21SPEAKER_01: I just want to say, if you're holding a camera, don't sing.
- 2:38:26SPEAKER_01: You're ruining your own video.
- 2:38:32SPEAKER_00: That's the whole thing.
- 2:38:33SPEAKER_00: When I take video at shows so you can post it for the fans, I am so...
- 2:38:40SPEAKER_00: Cognizant of holding that camera or the phone still and trying
- 2:38:46SPEAKER_00: to get you some good quality video instead of like doing this whole.
- 2:38:51SPEAKER_01: Well, like this guy, he's headbanging and his camera's headbanging
- 2:38:55SPEAKER_00: with him.
- 2:38:57SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 2:38:57SPEAKER_00: I try to hold the phone as still as I can.
- 2:39:01SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:39:02SPEAKER_00: And get you some nice, clean audio without going.
- 2:39:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, without being all over the place.
- 2:39:11SPEAKER_01: And here we go, a little more Slayer.
- 2:39:14And here we go, a little
- 2:39:36SPEAKER_02: more Slayer.
- 2:39:37SPEAKER_02: Ignore it, without mercy, I've been able to get it away.
- 2:39:43SPEAKER_02: Secondary, when the West sees you, even God feels to a district.
- 2:39:47SPEAKER_02: Inferno, who used to make God, to dodge me, even not to die.
- 2:39:52Ain't gonna die.
- 2:39:53SPEAKER_02: I'm a genie kingdom of the dead.
- 2:40:03SPEAKER_02: Ain't my best.
- 2:40:51SPEAKER_03: They just sound great.
- 2:40:53SPEAKER_00: You know what makes me laugh?
- 2:40:54SPEAKER_00: What's that?
- 2:40:55SPEAKER_00: Is that a couple of things.
- 2:40:58SPEAKER_00: First of all, if you watch Gary Holt and Kerry King together, they're just so relaxed.
- 2:41:05SPEAKER_00: They're just doing their whatever.
- 2:41:08SPEAKER_00: And they're just playing some ugly riffs together.
- 2:41:13SPEAKER_00: And then Tom Araya, he's singing all these Demonic lyrics and shit.
- 2:41:20SPEAKER_00: But from what I understand,
- 2:41:22SPEAKER_00: and again,
- 2:41:22SPEAKER_00: I don't know Tom at all, but because Eric Braverman, he knows Tom very well.
- 2:41:30SPEAKER_00: Tom is like a devout Catholic.
- 2:41:34SPEAKER_00: He's like a hardcore devout Catholic,
- 2:41:39SPEAKER_00: but yet he goes out there and just barks out these demonic lyrics.
- 2:41:45SPEAKER_00: It's the funniest goddamn thing.
- 2:41:47SPEAKER_00: And it's just like you go out there and entertain,
- 2:41:51SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:41:52SPEAKER_00: tens of thousands of people in a crowd
- 2:41:55SPEAKER_00: and you're out there barking out these hardcore demonic lyrics.
- 2:42:00SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 2:42:01SPEAKER_00: But yet in your real life, you're kind of a devout Catholic.
- 2:42:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:42:07SPEAKER_01: In your business life, you're selling sin.
- 2:42:09SPEAKER_01: And in your real life, you're asking forgiveness for it, I guess.
- 2:42:14SPEAKER_00: He's got fire and blood.
- 2:42:17SPEAKER_00: Upside down crosses.
- 2:42:19SPEAKER_00: Mayhem just happening behind you.
- 2:42:22SPEAKER_00: And again, when he sings, he's not out there just straining, you know, singing or whatever.
- 2:42:33SPEAKER_00: It's just sort of so natural for him.
- 2:42:35SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:42:37SPEAKER_01: Holt's probably the luckiest guy in the world because,
- 2:42:40SPEAKER_01: especially right now,
- 2:42:41SPEAKER_01: he's got to be thrilled to be getting these gigs because
- 2:42:43SPEAKER_01: that fucking Goliath record just stiffed.
- 2:42:49SPEAKER_01: I mean, very mixed reviews on it.
- 2:42:53SPEAKER_01: It did not hold well at all.
- 2:42:55SPEAKER_01: I like it personally, but I mean, it's certainly the weakest of the Dukes era.
- 2:43:02SPEAKER_01: So he's probably thrilled to be out here playing some Slayer stuff
- 2:43:05SPEAKER_01: where people are real into it.
- 2:43:06SPEAKER_00: Oh.
- 2:43:07SPEAKER_00: So I've run it,
- 2:43:09SPEAKER_00: you know, our good friend, Bob Nelbandian, he was, you know, friends with Gary Holt.
- 2:43:16SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 2:43:17SPEAKER_00: And when I would go to NAMM and Bob would be leading the pack per se,
- 2:43:23SPEAKER_00: I've run into Gary a couple of times and taken pictures with him and stuff.
- 2:43:27SPEAKER_00: And he is just sort of like a really meek guy.
- 2:43:31SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:43:32SPEAKER_00: He's just like really just, you know, just very, very kind.
- 2:43:38SPEAKER_00: Almost shy.
- 2:43:39SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:43:41SPEAKER_01: That's accurate.
- 2:43:43SPEAKER_01: Dude, I still remember when I got the ID.
- 2:43:45SPEAKER_01: You have it there somewhere, the one about the porn.
- 2:43:47SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it goes about the porn.
- 2:43:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because I had written it down,
- 2:43:52SPEAKER_01: and he looked at it, and he goes, I don't really want to read this one.
- 2:43:56SPEAKER_01: And I was like, come on, man.
- 2:43:58SPEAKER_01: You're fucking Gary Holt from Exodus.
- 2:43:59SPEAKER_01: So he did it, but then he does the whole, I don't know about that.
- 2:44:06SPEAKER_01: It's pretty funny.
- 2:44:08SPEAKER_01: Do you have that one?
- 2:44:09SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I do.
- 2:44:10SPEAKER_00: I'm trying to see if I can see here.
- 2:44:14SPEAKER_00: He did one for Midweek Mayhem when you used to do your Midweek Mayhem show.
- 2:44:19SPEAKER_00: I'll check this out here.
- 2:44:22SPEAKER_02: This is Gary Holt from Exodus,
- 2:44:23SPEAKER_02: and you're listening to the only thing on the web better than porn.
- 2:44:27SPEAKER_02: I don't know about that.
- 2:44:29SPEAKER_02: It's Midweek Mayhem.
- 2:44:33SPEAKER_00: I don't know about that.
- 2:44:35SPEAKER_01: I don't know about that.
- 2:44:39SPEAKER_01: I just remember handing him the card and he just looked at me like, what is wrong with you?
- 2:44:49SPEAKER_01: They were all nice.
- 2:44:50SPEAKER_01: I will say the Exodus boys are some of the nicest guys.
- 2:44:56SPEAKER_00: We really enjoyed talking to Zetro.
- 2:44:59SPEAKER_00: Love Zetro.
- 2:45:01SPEAKER_01: Love Zet.
- 2:45:02SPEAKER_01: Love Dukes.
- 2:45:05SPEAKER_01: Um, I remember when, when I did rock on the range, I talked to Jack Gibson.
- 2:45:11SPEAKER_01: He came over and did an interview with me.
- 2:45:13SPEAKER_01: I've interviewed Holt, obviously a couple of times.
- 2:45:17SPEAKER_01: I've really kind of conquered that band.
- 2:45:19SPEAKER_01: I had Rick Honnold on.
- 2:45:22SPEAKER_02: You remember me from Exodus and you are listening to the classic metal show.
- 2:45:27SPEAKER_02: So turn it up to 11.
- 2:45:28SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 2:45:35SPEAKER_00: And here's Rob Dukes.
- 2:45:37SPEAKER_02: This is Rob Dukes of Exodus.
- 2:45:39SPEAKER_02: You're listening to the Classic Metal Show.
- 2:45:42SPEAKER_00: I think I woke him up.
- 2:45:44SPEAKER_00: Yeah, short and to the point.
- 2:45:45SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's fine.
- 2:45:48SPEAKER_00: It's funny.
- 2:45:51SPEAKER_00: Good stuff.
- 2:45:52SPEAKER_01: You want to watch a little more Slayer?
- 2:45:53SPEAKER_00: Yeah, sure.
- 2:45:54SPEAKER_01: Let's see some more Slayer.
- 2:45:56SPEAKER_01: I don't want to watch the light, though.
- 2:45:58SPEAKER_01: Let me get out of the light.
- 2:46:01SPEAKER_01: There we go.
- 2:46:02SPEAKER_01: Just pop it in at random.
- 2:47:08SPEAKER_01: Just fucking destroy, man.
- 2:47:11SPEAKER_01: So good.
- 2:47:13SPEAKER_00: Not bad for some 60-year-old guys.
- 2:47:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no shit.
- 2:47:17SPEAKER_01: When so many other bands are sounding like ass, you can go see Slayer.
- 2:47:20SPEAKER_01: They certainly are sounding great.
- 2:47:24SPEAKER_01: So yeah, a few more shows.
- 2:47:25SPEAKER_01: Get out there.
- 2:47:26SPEAKER_01: If they're coming near you,
- 2:47:27SPEAKER_01: you better go see them because it definitely seems like it's worth the investment
- 2:47:34SPEAKER_01: to go.
- 2:47:35SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:47:36SPEAKER_01: This is one that I will definitely endorse spending a couple of extra shekels.
- 2:47:41SPEAKER_01: I hope they come to Cleveland at some point.
- 2:47:44SPEAKER_01: I will definitely go see that again.
- 2:47:46SPEAKER_01: I would love to see Slayer one more time.
- 2:47:49SPEAKER_01: John Darlis says, Fear Factory with Slayer, probably the loudest concert I've ever attended.
- 2:47:56SPEAKER_01: I don't doubt that.
- 2:47:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:47:57SPEAKER_01: I wonder when that was.
- 2:48:00SPEAKER_01: I don't remember seeing that show.
- 2:48:03SPEAKER_01: Maybe it wasn't here.
- 2:48:04SPEAKER_01: Because I think I would have, I certainly would have been at that.
- 2:48:09SPEAKER_01: Two of my favorite bands.
- 2:48:11SPEAKER_01: I'm actually interviewing Bert from Fear Factory fame on Monday.
- 2:48:15SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 2:48:16SPEAKER_01: Chatting with him as well.
- 2:48:18SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 2:48:19SPEAKER_01: Get my sea legs back under me.
- 2:48:21SPEAKER_01: Look at you.
- 2:48:22SPEAKER_01: Burton C. Bell.
- 2:48:23SPEAKER_01: Get my sea legs.
- 2:48:25SPEAKER_01: See what I did there?
- 2:48:27SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 2:48:28SPEAKER_01: Nothing.
- 2:48:30SPEAKER_01: Told a bad joke.
- 2:48:31SPEAKER_01: That's what I did.
- 2:48:33SPEAKER_00: Well, that's when you have to go, well, I enjoyed it.
- 2:48:36SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:48:37SPEAKER_03: One of the best ones I've heard tonight.
- 2:48:38SPEAKER_03: That's for sure.
- 2:48:39SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:48:40SPEAKER_03: Well, at least I
- 2:48:41SPEAKER_00: enjoyed it.

- 2:50:03SPEAKER_01: All right, let's move on from Slayer, shall we?
- 2:50:07SPEAKER_01: Let us talk,
- 2:50:10SPEAKER_01: and I don't want to talk a whole lot about this because I want to end with
- 2:50:14SPEAKER_01: the Van Halen thing.
- 2:50:16SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:50:16SPEAKER_01: But let's talk briefly about Motley Crue.
- 2:50:20SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:50:23SPEAKER_01: Because I'm sick to death of this fucking band.
- 2:50:28SPEAKER_00: They have ruined your
- 2:50:33SPEAKER_00: enjoyment or your fandom of Motley Crue.
- 2:50:37SPEAKER_01: Every time I see anything from them now,
- 2:50:41SPEAKER_01: I'm like, why are these fucking guys back in my life again?
- 2:50:46SPEAKER_01: And I loved Motley Crue.
- 2:50:48SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 2:50:50SPEAKER_01: Outside of Metallica, they were probably my number two most played band through my career.
- 2:50:57SPEAKER_01: I don't want to say my childhood,
- 2:50:58SPEAKER_01: but my high school years into,
- 2:51:01SPEAKER_01: I don't know if I ever told this story or not,
- 2:51:06SPEAKER_01: but so in the military,
- 2:51:08SPEAKER_01: I got DWI when I was in Arizona and they gave me a choice
- 2:51:12SPEAKER_01: of either getting kicked out of the military or going to rehab.
- 2:51:16SPEAKER_01: So I went to rehab in El Paso.
- 2:51:20SPEAKER_01: It was like a lockdown rehab and we had one day in the rehab and Where we were taken
- 2:51:28SPEAKER_01: to a store.
- 2:51:30SPEAKER_01: You know, they're like trying to teach you how to live life again.
- 2:51:33SPEAKER_01: Live your life.
- 2:51:34SPEAKER_01: So they took us to a store.
- 2:51:36SPEAKER_01: So that we could buy toothpaste, soap, shampoo.
- 2:51:44SPEAKER_01: You know, that kind of shit, right?
- 2:51:45SPEAKER_01: It was like a toiletry day.
- 2:51:46SPEAKER_01: But it was like this thing about getting out.
- 2:51:49SPEAKER_01: Okay?
- 2:51:50SPEAKER_01: So what did I do?
- 2:51:52SPEAKER_01: I went and I found that they were selling.
- 2:51:55SPEAKER_01: It was one of those like...
- 2:51:58SPEAKER_01: Like a drugstore.
- 2:51:59SPEAKER_01: But remember how sometimes the drugstores had the little rotating cassette things?
- 2:52:04SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:52:04SPEAKER_01: Like they had all the cassettes on like a rotating wheel and you could just pick one out.
- 2:52:08SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:52:08SPEAKER_01: Well, do I waste my time getting, you know, toiletries or whatever?
- 2:52:13SPEAKER_01: No.
- 2:52:14SPEAKER_00: The essentials.
- 2:52:15SPEAKER_01: Well, I went for the essentials.
- 2:52:17SPEAKER_01: I went right over to that tape thing and I found Dr. Feelgood and I bought the cassette.
- 2:52:23SPEAKER_01: And I played it every single day in my headphones.
- 2:52:26SPEAKER_01: That was my mental stability to get through rehab was at least I had Dr. Feelgood.
- 2:52:34SPEAKER_01: And I remember when I got caught having it because they were like,
- 2:52:36SPEAKER_01: you weren't supposed to buy that or whatever.
- 2:52:38SPEAKER_01: I was like, but these guys got sober.
- 2:52:41SPEAKER_03: That's why I'm listening to them.
- 2:52:44SPEAKER_03: Because remember they had gotten sober for that record.
- 2:52:47SPEAKER_00: 1989, Bob Rock.
- 2:52:50SPEAKER_03: And I was like, well, these guys got sober, so I should be okay to listen to this.
- 2:52:55SPEAKER_03: And they let me keep the tape.
- 2:52:57SPEAKER_00: Which was allegedly the impetus behind Metallica's Black
- 2:53:02SPEAKER_03: album.
- 2:53:03SPEAKER_03: What, Motley getting sober?
- 2:53:05SPEAKER_03: Or the sound?
- 2:53:06SPEAKER_00: No, the sound of Dr. Feelgood.
- 2:53:08SPEAKER_00: I believe that.
- 2:53:10SPEAKER_00: Because Metallica heard Dr. Feelgood, and they were just like, well, we want that.
- 2:53:17SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:53:18SPEAKER_00: We want that dynamic.
- 2:53:21SPEAKER_03: It is the one truly great sounding
- 2:53:27SPEAKER_01: Motley record.
- 2:53:29SPEAKER_01: I don't think any of the other records sound nearly as good as that.
- 2:53:32SPEAKER_00: Yeah, this was like top notch, polished, you know, best production ever.
- 2:53:39SPEAKER_00: And Metallica said, we want our next album to be this.
- 2:53:45SPEAKER_01: And it was.
- 2:53:47SPEAKER_01: It was.
- 2:53:48SPEAKER_01: And it sold the most.
- 2:53:50SPEAKER_01: It sold the most.
- 2:53:52SPEAKER_01: People bitch about Bob Rock all the time.
- 2:53:54SPEAKER_01: He's another, he's one of those guys like Mutt Lang.
- 2:53:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:53:58SPEAKER_01: I'd have him do, if I was in a band, I'd want that guy.
- 2:54:01SPEAKER_01: I would want that guy to do anything with me.
- 2:54:04SPEAKER_00: If you want to sell, you know, multi-millions of records, you want that ear candy.
- 2:54:11SPEAKER_01: Or just want to have a good song.
- 2:54:12SPEAKER_01: Like Def Leppard now with that Rejoice song.
- 2:54:15SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 2:54:15SPEAKER_01: You know, they're not going to sell any of it, but who cares?
- 2:54:17SPEAKER_01: It sounds like classic Def Leppard.
- 2:54:21SPEAKER_01: Because that guy, Mutt Lang, got back involved.
- 2:54:25SPEAKER_01: And Bob Rock is the same way.
- 2:54:27SPEAKER_01: They brought him over to the Metallica camp and he improved their sound.
- 2:54:32SPEAKER_01: Just the sound.
- 2:54:33SPEAKER_01: I'm not saying the album is better than, you know, even Justice or Master or whatever.
- 2:54:39SPEAKER_01: But...
- 2:54:41SPEAKER_01: Just from a sonic quality, that's the best Metallica record, hands down.
- 2:54:47SPEAKER_01: Hands down, it's the best one.
- 2:54:50SPEAKER_01: And Winter, Lord knows I'm not saying that the 94 album isn't great.
- 2:54:55SPEAKER_01: I love that.
- 2:54:55SPEAKER_01: It's my favorite of all the Motley records.
- 2:54:59SPEAKER_01: But it's not as sonically good as Dr. Feelgood.
- 2:55:04SPEAKER_01: Not even in the same ballpark sonically.
- 2:55:07SPEAKER_01: It's a little too knob twisty for me.
- 2:55:12SPEAKER_01: There's some songs on there that just has a little too much.
- 2:55:18SPEAKER_01: It was that Love Shine song at the beginning of it.
- 2:55:20SPEAKER_01: It's like all kinds of weird bullshit in there.
- 2:55:24SPEAKER_01: It's like not quite as good.
- 2:55:27SPEAKER_01: Then they went off the deep end with Generation Shit.
- 2:55:31SPEAKER_01: Terrible.
- 2:55:32SPEAKER_01: Terrible, terrible, terrible.
- 2:55:35SPEAKER_01: Anyway, back to Motley Crue.
- 2:55:38SPEAKER_01: So Motley Crue have announced...
- 2:55:42SPEAKER_01: You're never going to believe this, Nealey.
- 2:55:44SPEAKER_01: Another reissue.
- 2:55:46SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:55:48SPEAKER_01: These fucking guys are the kings of reissue.
- 2:55:51SPEAKER_00: Well, here's the thing.
- 2:55:53SPEAKER_00: Is this the band doing this, or is this a production deal?
- 2:56:02SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
- 2:56:03SPEAKER_01: It probably is a production deal, but they're signing off on it.
- 2:56:05SPEAKER_01: There's no doubt.
- 2:56:06SPEAKER_00: Well, of course, because they're going to make a paycheck.
- 2:56:09SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:56:12SPEAKER_01: But they're proving once again that their integrity level is zero.
- 2:56:16SPEAKER_00: Yeah, well, it's all about the cash.
- 2:56:20SPEAKER_01: Again, going back to my ATM statement from before.
- 2:56:23SPEAKER_03: Yes, yes.
- 2:56:24SPEAKER_01: They really look at their fans as an ATM machine.
- 2:56:27SPEAKER_00: Yeah, of course.
- 2:56:28SPEAKER_00: It's like, well,
- 2:56:29SPEAKER_00: they've made their entire 40-plus year career out of the fans buying their stuff.
- 2:56:35SPEAKER_00: That's why each and every one of them are multi-millionaires.
- 2:56:39SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 2:56:40SPEAKER_01: They just keep throwing it out there.
- 2:56:43SPEAKER_01: Keep reissuing it.
- 2:56:45SPEAKER_01: Keep reissuing it.
- 2:56:47SPEAKER_01: You know, now BMG is going to reissue this one.
- 2:56:52SPEAKER_01: And this one comes with...
- 2:56:55SPEAKER_01: What, the original No Life Till Leather version of the album or something?
- 2:57:03SPEAKER_01: I think that's the big get on this one,
- 2:57:06SPEAKER_01: is that this one comes with the Leather Records version instead of
- 2:57:11SPEAKER_01: the Elektra version that was cleaned up a little bit.
- 2:57:15SPEAKER_01: But call me crazy, I don't think either one of those is that good.
- 2:57:20SPEAKER_01: Do you think that, I mean,
- 2:57:21SPEAKER_01: I'm sure you know the Elektra version backwards and forwards,
- 2:57:24SPEAKER_01: but It's decent, but I wouldn't call it great, would you?
- 2:57:29SPEAKER_00: No, but that's what launched them into the attention of the public.
- 2:57:38SPEAKER_01: No.
- 2:57:40SPEAKER_01: No, they didn't get into the public until Shout at the Devil.
- 2:57:43SPEAKER_00: Well, but my point is, is they made their first foray into the public.
- 2:57:49SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:57:49SPEAKER_00: I mean, they were heard.
- 2:57:51SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:57:51SPEAKER_00: I'm not saying that this put them over the top.
- 2:57:54SPEAKER_00: I'm just saying that this is where people who were paying attention to this kind
- 2:58:00SPEAKER_00: of thing may have heard of Motley Crue.
- 2:58:03SPEAKER_01: I remember when I first bought it or stole it because I bought it from Camelot.
- 2:58:10SPEAKER_01: Was it Camelot?
- 2:58:10SPEAKER_01: Not Camelot.
- 2:58:11SPEAKER_01: What was that?
- 2:58:12SPEAKER_01: Columbia House.
- 2:58:13SPEAKER_01: One where they sent you the albums and then you never paid for them.
- 2:58:17SPEAKER_01: But I totally ripped them off for this record.
- 2:58:22SPEAKER_01: And I got it after I had Shout at the Devil.
- 2:58:27SPEAKER_01: And I remember being completely disappointed with this thing because it just sounds so shitty.
- 2:58:34SPEAKER_01: You know, when you listen to, like, what's the song?
- 2:58:38SPEAKER_01: Starry Eyes?
- 2:58:39SPEAKER_01: When you listen to Starry Eyes,
- 2:58:40SPEAKER_01: it has that beginning part that just sounds like they're just kind of grinding
- 2:58:44SPEAKER_01: the guitar in the studio and just started playing.
- 2:58:49SPEAKER_01: It's like, what is this garage band bullshit that I'm listening to?
- 2:58:54SPEAKER_01: You know, it's just, I always thought this was kind of, and it has good songs on it.
- 2:59:00SPEAKER_01: I think Take Me to the Top's a pretty good song.
- 2:59:02SPEAKER_03: I like On With the Show like everybody else.
- 2:59:05SPEAKER_03: Piece of Your Action's pretty cool.
- 2:59:07SPEAKER_01: Live Wire's obviously a big one for them.
- 2:59:12SPEAKER_01: But all the rest of it, like, come on and dance.
- 2:59:14SPEAKER_01: Come on and dance.
- 2:59:16SPEAKER_01: Junk.
- 2:59:17SPEAKER_01: How about No?
- 2:59:21SPEAKER_01: Same with Public Enemy No.
- 2:59:23SPEAKER_01: Do you like that song?
- 2:59:23SPEAKER_01: Public Enemy No.
- 2:59:25SPEAKER_01: 1.
- 2:59:26SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 2:59:28SPEAKER_01: I think overall it's a Like a middle of the road record for them.
- 2:59:33SPEAKER_01: Don't you think, or do you like it more?
- 2:59:36SPEAKER_00: No, I think that it's similar.
- 2:59:40SPEAKER_00: I'm going to throw Dokken in here.
- 2:59:41SPEAKER_00: It's similar to Breaking the Chains.
- 2:59:44SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 2:59:44SPEAKER_00: You know, it's their first foray into getting public attention.
- 2:59:51SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 2:59:52SPEAKER_00: You know, is it great?
- 2:59:53SPEAKER_00: No, but, but you remember a few of the songs.
- 2:59:59SPEAKER_00: And then they came out, as you said, shout at the devil, which is what kind of blew them up.

- 3:00:43SPEAKER_01: Can't imagine what this thing costs.
- 3:00:47SPEAKER_01: There's not even a pre-order link anywhere here.
- 3:00:51SPEAKER_01: The Ultra Unlimited version with additional elements in a hand-numbered run
- 3:00:56SPEAKER_01: of 250 copies is available at the Cruzeum.
- 3:01:00SPEAKER_01: Let's look up the Cruzeum.
- 3:01:03SPEAKER_01: C-R-U-E-S-E-U-M.
- 3:01:05SPEAKER_01: Cruzeum.
- 3:01:07SPEAKER_01: Motley Crue Cruzeum.
- 3:01:09SPEAKER_01: Oh, they've sold it out.
- 3:01:11SPEAKER_01: How much was it?
- 3:01:17SPEAKER_01: Still seems a bit pricey to me, but $250?
- 3:01:26SPEAKER_01: Did you pay $250 for that?
- 3:01:28SPEAKER_00: No.
- 3:01:30SPEAKER_00: But again, I'm not a hardcore.
- 3:01:33SPEAKER_00: Our good friend Tim James would buy that.
- 3:01:36SPEAKER_00: Oh, he probably did buy that.
- 3:01:37SPEAKER_00: What do you mean would?
- 3:01:39SPEAKER_00: He got the last copy available.
- 3:01:42SPEAKER_01: Look at some of this bullshit.
- 3:01:43SPEAKER_01: Look at the ripoffs these guys do.
- 3:01:46SPEAKER_01: Hand-signed Theater of Pain 12-inch vinyl album, $950.
- 3:01:50SPEAKER_01: So this is signed by who?
- 3:01:57SPEAKER_00: Probably all four of them, I'd imagine.
- 3:01:59SPEAKER_00: You think McMars participated?
- 3:02:02SPEAKER_01: Well, let's find out.
- 3:02:03SPEAKER_01: Let's see.
- 3:02:06SPEAKER_01: Nope.
- 3:02:07SPEAKER_01: Hand signed by Nicky, Tommy, and Vince.
- 3:02:10SPEAKER_00: See?
- 3:02:11SPEAKER_00: That's my point.
- 3:02:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:02:14SPEAKER_01: Well, why would you need McMars?
- 3:02:16SPEAKER_01: It's only $950, dude.
- 3:02:17SPEAKER_01: It's a bargain.
- 3:02:18SPEAKER_00: Yeah, if it was McMars, it would be $1,200.
- 3:02:21SPEAKER_01: It would be $2,000.
- 3:02:23SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:02:24SPEAKER_01: Well, here's another one.
- 3:02:26SPEAKER_01: Signed, 12-inch acrylic encased, grade vinyl, $1,500.
- 3:02:31SPEAKER_01: Are you fucking kidding me with this?
- 3:02:35SPEAKER_01: And again, no Mick Mars.
- 3:02:37SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 3:02:39SPEAKER_01: $1,500?
- 3:02:40SPEAKER_00: So you're missing a key member on this album.
- 3:02:45SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:02:46SPEAKER_01: For $1,500.
- 3:02:47SPEAKER_01: $1,500.
- 3:02:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:02:49SPEAKER_01: Who are the dumbbells that bought this?
- 3:02:53SPEAKER_01: I mean, seriously.
- 3:02:55SPEAKER_01: You gotta be a real... That's a fan to the level of insanity.
- 3:03:03SPEAKER_01: That's not a fan.
- 3:03:04SPEAKER_01: That's somebody that will stalk these fucking guys.
- 3:03:07SPEAKER_01: Don't you think?
- 3:03:09SPEAKER_01: That's somebody that probably lurks in fucking Wyoming looking for Nicky's new house.
- 3:03:17SPEAKER_01: I mean, $1,500.
- 3:03:18SPEAKER_01: That's fucking ridiculous.
- 3:03:22SPEAKER_01: All right, my point is that there is no need for this, again.
- 3:03:29SPEAKER_01: These guys have reissued all their bullshit so many times.
- 3:03:34SPEAKER_01: Only one I can think of that's reissued as many or more might be Iron Maiden.
- 3:03:39SPEAKER_01: Iron Maiden's reissued their shit a bunch of times.
- 3:03:42SPEAKER_01: But Motley Crue just does it every five years.
- 3:03:46SPEAKER_01: They recycle it and come back out with it.
- 3:03:48SPEAKER_00: Well, they license it to somebody to reissue it.
- 3:03:53SPEAKER_01: But they do it every,
- 3:03:54SPEAKER_01: there's 20th anniversary, 25th anniversary, 30th anniversary, now 45th anniversary.
- 3:04:02SPEAKER_01: And I guarantee you,
- 3:04:03SPEAKER_01: you'll get this with another fucking demo or some bullshit for the 50th anniversary.
- 3:04:09SPEAKER_01: Don't you think?
- 3:04:11SPEAKER_00: Of course.
- 3:04:13SPEAKER_01: Very ridiculous.
- 3:04:16SPEAKER_00: Well, again,
- 3:04:18SPEAKER_00: This goes back to the whole ticket thing we were talking about earlier in the show.
- 3:04:25SPEAKER_00: There would not be a demand for this if people would not pay for it.
- 3:04:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Tim, so knock it off.
- 3:04:35SPEAKER_00: But that's the whole thing.
- 3:04:37SPEAKER_00: That is a testament to the economy now.
- 3:04:41SPEAKER_00: That people have that kind of expendable cash who is willing to put out that kind
- 3:04:47SPEAKER_00: of money for this kind of stuff,
- 3:04:49SPEAKER_00: regardless if it's a ticket to a show for hundreds of dollars or whether it's
- 3:04:55SPEAKER_00: a hundreds of dollars for a signed Motley Crue album or whatever the hell it is.
- 3:05:01SPEAKER_00: It's just like,
- 3:05:03SPEAKER_00: you guys must be doing well if you got that kind of Cash,
- 3:05:08SPEAKER_00: I hope you're not putting it on a credit card that has a 25% interest rate.
- 3:05:14SPEAKER_01: But you know some are.
- 3:05:16SPEAKER_01: I'm sure they are.
- 3:05:19SPEAKER_01: Just, I don't know, the whole thing's infuriating to me.

- 3:06:29SPEAKER_01: Well, since we're spending...
- 3:06:32SPEAKER_01: Money uselessly.
- 3:06:33SPEAKER_01: Let's do one more and we'll get out of here.
- 3:06:35SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 3:06:36SPEAKER_01: Alex Van Halen has a new book coming.
- 3:06:39SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he's going to be in competition with the CMS book.
- 3:06:44SPEAKER_00: I think he might win.
- 3:06:46SPEAKER_01: Just a hunch, but I think he might beat us.
- 3:06:49SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 3:06:49SPEAKER_01: I think you're
- 3:06:51SPEAKER_00: selling us
- 3:06:52SPEAKER_01: short.
- 3:06:53SPEAKER_01: I'll tell you what,
- 3:06:53SPEAKER_01: for the cost of his book, we should sell ours 10 to 1 of his fucking shit book.
- 3:06:58SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 3:07:00SPEAKER_01: So here it is,
- 3:07:01SPEAKER_01: Van Halen,
- 3:07:02SPEAKER_01: they're including an unreleased demo of some shitty song that wasn't good enough
- 3:07:07SPEAKER_01: to make any of the records because it was recorded before the records.
- 3:07:12SPEAKER_00: Wasn't that a Motley song, Glitter?
- 3:07:14SPEAKER_00: Yeah, a really bad one.
- 3:07:17SPEAKER_00: Glitter!
- 3:07:19SPEAKER_00: A 1974 demo song called Glitter?
- 3:07:21SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 3:07:23SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:07:25SPEAKER_01: That's the draw to this book.
- 3:07:27SPEAKER_00: What, you got a CD with a single song on it?
- 3:07:31SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 3:07:33SPEAKER_03: With the 1984 logo on it too.
- 3:07:36SPEAKER_01: Not even, it makes no sense.
- 3:07:40SPEAKER_00: So how long will it take before that song is out there on the internet somewhere?
- 3:07:45SPEAKER_01: I would imagine probably within an hour of the book going on sale.
- 3:07:50SPEAKER_00: Of course.
- 3:07:51SPEAKER_01: So anyways, getting ready to release this book.
- 3:07:56SPEAKER_01: I just want to, I'll go right to it.
- 3:08:00SPEAKER_01: Here's the sales page for the book.
- 3:08:03SPEAKER_01: Here's Alex signing them.
- 3:08:06SPEAKER_01: $1,500 signed.
- 3:08:08SPEAKER_01: Publication price $385,
- 3:08:10SPEAKER_01: whatever this is,
- 3:08:13SPEAKER_01: which the translation is about $475 for a book with one fucking song.
- 3:08:23SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:08:24SPEAKER_00: So you could get a Motley signed album cover for $1,500.
- 3:08:32SPEAKER_00: Or you could get an Alex Van Halen signed book for how much?
- 3:08:38SPEAKER_00: $475.
- 3:08:38SPEAKER_00: You get three of them.
- 3:08:39SPEAKER_01: Same money.
- 3:08:41SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:08:43SPEAKER_01: Get three of those books.
- 3:08:44SPEAKER_01: Give two away for Christmas presents.
- 3:08:46SPEAKER_00: All right, so those signatures are worth $500 a pop.
- 3:08:50SPEAKER_00: Apparently.
- 3:08:50SPEAKER_00: Right, because for the Motley,
- 3:08:52SPEAKER_00: it's $1,500 for the three remaining members of Motley, or $500 for an Alex.
- 3:09:01SPEAKER_00: So now we know the value of a Rockstar autograph, which is $500.
- 3:09:07SPEAKER_01: $500.
- 3:09:07SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 3:09:09SPEAKER_01: Here's the part I wanted you to see the most, though.
- 3:09:11SPEAKER_01: This little line right here.
- 3:09:15SPEAKER_01: You can make payments to buy this book.
- 3:09:18SPEAKER_01: Well, Motley had that too.
- 3:09:20SPEAKER_00: I saw that over there.
- 3:09:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they did.
- 3:09:23SPEAKER_00: They had, it's like 45 bucks a month or some shit.
- 3:09:27SPEAKER_01: This is $113.85 a month.
- 3:09:31SPEAKER_01: So you can keep your cable on or your internet bill or you can buy Alex Van Halen's book.
- 3:09:42SPEAKER_01: Are you fucking kidding me with this?
- 3:09:47SPEAKER_01: But we're not supposed to call them out for ripping off their fans.
- 3:09:50SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:09:52SPEAKER_01: And obviously, it's because Alex Van Halen needs the money.
- 3:09:56SPEAKER_01: He didn't make any money in Van Halen.
- 3:10:00SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 3:10:01SPEAKER_01: He was almost destitute while he was in Van Halen.
- 3:10:04SPEAKER_01: Probably working for Burritos.
- 3:10:06SPEAKER_00: I think he was homeless.
- 3:10:08SPEAKER_01: You think he was?
- 3:10:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:10:10SPEAKER_00: I think he was surviving on those hot dogs.
- 3:10:14SPEAKER_00: Yeah, those pinkies hot dogs or whatever.
- 3:10:16SPEAKER_00: Pinkies hot dogs that David Lee Roth was bragging about.
- 3:10:23SPEAKER_01: I mean, are you kidding me?
- 3:10:25SPEAKER_01: Does this guy really need?
- 3:10:28SPEAKER_01: And here he is signing them.
- 3:10:31SPEAKER_01: So he's aware what they're selling for.
- 3:10:34SPEAKER_01: This is not a distributor.
- 3:10:36SPEAKER_01: This is him.
- 3:10:38SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he's got stacks of them right there.
- 3:10:43SPEAKER_01: Come on.
- 3:10:45SPEAKER_01: Where's the line?
- 3:10:46SPEAKER_01: Is there no line for any of these fucking guys?
- 3:10:49SPEAKER_01: What is Alex Van Halen?
- 3:10:51SPEAKER_01: I got to look this up.
- 3:10:54SPEAKER_01: What is Alex Van Halen's net worth?
- 3:11:00SPEAKER_00: Don't tell me.
- 3:11:01SPEAKER_00: I'm going to guess it's $500 million.
- 3:11:04SPEAKER_01: This number, if this number's right, this is sad.
- 3:11:08SPEAKER_01: This can't be right.
- 3:11:10SPEAKER_01: That's in a couple places, though.
- 3:11:13SPEAKER_01: Well, you're way, way off.
- 3:11:18SPEAKER_01: How can this be right?
- 3:11:20SPEAKER_01: 200 million?
- 3:11:21SPEAKER_01: Not even close.
- 3:11:23SPEAKER_01: 150?
- 3:11:24SPEAKER_01: Not even close.
- 3:11:25SPEAKER_01: 100 million?
- 3:11:26SPEAKER_01: Less.
- 3:11:26SPEAKER_01: 50 million?
- 3:11:26SPEAKER_01: 95.
- 3:11:26SPEAKER_00: 95 million?
- 3:11:34SPEAKER_00: But still at $95 million.
- 3:11:36SPEAKER_01: That's a lot of money, but I mean, he was the drummer in Van Halen for the whole run.
- 3:11:42SPEAKER_01: Van Halen made billions of dollars.
- 3:11:46SPEAKER_01: Billions.
- 3:11:47SPEAKER_00: Can you look up what Eddie's worth was or is or his estate was worth or whatever it is?
- 3:11:57SPEAKER_01: $100 million.
- 3:11:58SPEAKER_01: How can that be?
- 3:11:59SPEAKER_00: That can't be.
- 3:12:01SPEAKER_00: How about David Lee Roth?
- 3:12:02SPEAKER_00: Can you look him up?
- 3:12:03SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:12:05SPEAKER_00: See what he's worth.
- 3:12:14SPEAKER_00: 60.
- 3:12:16SPEAKER_00: So he's significantly less than Alex and Eddie.
- 3:12:22SPEAKER_00: Did these guys
- 3:12:23SPEAKER_00: just sign horrendous deals?
- 3:12:24SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 3:12:26SPEAKER_00: But still, that's a lot of money.
- 3:12:28SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's a lot of money,
- 3:12:29SPEAKER_01: but dude, Van Halen was the biggest band in the rock world for fucking
- 3:12:33SPEAKER_00: 30 years.
- 3:12:34SPEAKER_00: I agree.
- 3:12:36SPEAKER_00: I mean, like a Gene Simmons or a Paul Stanley, they're both worth like 500 million.
- 3:12:43SPEAKER_01: I'm looking up some, I'm going to try apples to apples a little bit.
- 3:12:46SPEAKER_01: I'm going to go with Don Henley.
- 3:12:48SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:12:48SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:12:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he's worth $250 million.
- 3:12:55SPEAKER_01: Were the Eagles that much bigger than Van Halen?
- 3:12:59SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 3:13:01SPEAKER_00: I mean, that greatest hits, that Eagles greatest hits, that was massive.
- 3:13:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was massive.
- 3:13:09SPEAKER_01: Shit, let me look up Darius Rucker.
- 3:13:14SPEAKER_01: Now I'm just going with anybody that has a diamond record.
- 3:13:17SPEAKER_01: He's only worth $12 million.
- 3:13:22SPEAKER_01: Those numbers do not feel right to me.
- 3:13:24SPEAKER_01: Do they to you?
- 3:13:25SPEAKER_00: Well, again,
- 3:13:26SPEAKER_00: I don't know where they compile these numbers from or where they get them from,
- 3:13:30SPEAKER_00: how the internet gets these numbers.
- 3:13:33SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 3:13:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's just crazy.
- 3:13:37SPEAKER_01: I would have thought like you, half a billion dollars.
- 3:13:40SPEAKER_00: I would have thought, you know, Alex Van Halen was worth at least $500 million.
- 3:13:46SPEAKER_01: Steven Tyler.
- 3:13:49SPEAKER_01: Steven Tyler's net worth.
- 3:13:50SPEAKER_01: He's worth $150.
- 3:13:53SPEAKER_00: That's it?
- 3:13:54SPEAKER_01: That's it.
- 3:13:59SPEAKER_00: Maybe none of these guys were getting paid back in the day, apparently.
- 3:14:03SPEAKER_00: Over a 60-year career in Aerosmith, $150 million?
- 3:14:08SPEAKER_00: Well, they did do a lot of blow.
- 3:14:11SPEAKER_00: I understand that.
- 3:14:12SPEAKER_00: I get that.
- 3:14:12SPEAKER_00: But holy shit.
- 3:14:15SPEAKER_01: Hmm.
- 3:14:17SPEAKER_01: I guess these guys just didn't make a whole lot of money.
- 3:14:19SPEAKER_00: We'll put in Gene Simmons.
- 3:14:22SPEAKER_01: I know he made money.
- 3:14:26SPEAKER_01: He's got to be worth like 700 million or something.
- 3:14:30SPEAKER_01: Gene Simmons.
- 3:14:32SPEAKER_01: Nope, 400.
- 3:14:37SPEAKER_01: That even feels low, doesn't it?
- 3:14:39SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it does.
- 3:14:40SPEAKER_00: Because I'm thinking he was closer to, you know, 700 to 800 million.
- 3:14:46SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I would have thought so, but he doesn't have any divorces or anything, I don't think.
- 3:14:51SPEAKER_00: No, because he's never married until he married Shannon Tweed.
- 3:14:55SPEAKER_01: No, and he's going to keep her.
- 3:14:57SPEAKER_01: He'll keep her in a kiss casket until she actually does die.
- 3:15:02SPEAKER_01: He'll never let her go.
- 3:15:04SPEAKER_01: Do you think there'd be a harder rock star than Gene Simmons to get fucking alimony out of?
- 3:15:12SPEAKER_00: Can you imagine
- 3:15:13SPEAKER_01: that fight?
- 3:15:15SPEAKER_00: Well, he is Jewish, so I'm sure he would fight to the death.
- 3:15:17SPEAKER_00: All right, now.
- 3:15:19SPEAKER_00: But it's true.
- 3:15:21SPEAKER_00: That's not a secret.
- 3:15:24SPEAKER_00: And that's not a slam.
- 3:15:25SPEAKER_00: That's just a fact.
- 3:15:25SPEAKER_01: That's a slam?
- 3:15:27SPEAKER_01: Are you kidding?
- 3:15:28SPEAKER_00: How is that not a slam?
- 3:15:31SPEAKER_00: How is that not a slam?
- 3:15:32SPEAKER_00: Or how is that a slam?
- 3:15:33SPEAKER_01: Because you're putting him in a box and saying all Jewish
- 3:15:36SPEAKER_00: guys are cheap.
- 3:15:37SPEAKER_00: I'm saying that they have a sense about money about them.
- 3:15:42SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 3:15:44SPEAKER_00: That's what they're known for.
- 3:15:47SPEAKER_01: I'm not saying that that's not stereotypically true.
- 3:15:51SPEAKER_01: I'm just saying each guy's different.
- 3:15:54SPEAKER_01: Gene, I guess, does fit that bill.
- 3:15:56SPEAKER_01: Lord knows.
- 3:15:57SPEAKER_01: We've heard the stories about him charging $10 for towels.
- 3:16:01SPEAKER_01: When they were on the fucking, you know,
- 3:16:04SPEAKER_00: the all-night tour.
- 3:16:05SPEAKER_00: Well, I mean,
- 3:16:07SPEAKER_00: even Don tells the story how he got charged $20 for two extra meal tickets
- 3:16:15SPEAKER_00: when they were on the tour with him.
- 3:16:17SPEAKER_00: And Chris didn't even pay for the meals.
- 3:16:19SPEAKER_00: It was just part of the rider.
- 3:16:21SPEAKER_00: It was just part of the deal.
- 3:16:22SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:16:23SPEAKER_00: So he deducted $20 out of their paycheck.
- 3:16:28SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 3:16:28SPEAKER_00: You know,
- 3:16:29SPEAKER_00: they were getting,
- 3:16:30SPEAKER_00: I think they were, their opening slot was like $7,000 or some shit like that.
- 3:16:34SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 3:16:35SPEAKER_00: And when he went to get his payout,
- 3:16:38SPEAKER_00: because Jeff Pilsen and George Lynch brought their significant others or something,
- 3:16:43SPEAKER_00: and they requested a meal ticket for each one of them, which was 10 bucks a piece.
- 3:16:49SPEAKER_00: He went to go collect his payout at the end of the night,
- 3:16:54SPEAKER_00: his settlement at the end of the night.
- 3:16:56SPEAKER_00: And instead of $7,000, it was $6,980.
- 3:16:57SPEAKER_00: He took out $20?
- 3:16:58SPEAKER_00: That's crazy.
- 3:16:58SPEAKER_00: So dumb.
- 3:17:14SPEAKER_02: Dawkins' greatest hits just dropped on limited edition red and purple splatter vinyl.
- 3:17:22SPEAKER_02: That's right,
- 3:17:22SPEAKER_02: 10 freshly recorded Balls to the Wall anthems,
- 3:17:25SPEAKER_02: Breaking the Chains,
- 3:17:25SPEAKER_02: In My Dreams, Alone Again, Dream Warriors, Tooth and Nail, and more.
- 3:17:30SPEAKER_02: This splatter beast is pure 80s hair metal glory, now sounding heavier and meaner than ever.
- 3:17:36SPEAKER_02: On your turntable,
- 3:17:38SPEAKER_02: smash the link at the bottom of your screen right now and own Dawkins' greatest hits
- 3:17:43SPEAKER_02: on splatter vinyl.
- 3:17:45SPEAKER_00: And same way with, you know, Ted Pauly from Danger, Danger.
- 3:17:51SPEAKER_00: He threw a towel out into the audience, and Gene Simmons charged him for that.
- 3:17:58SPEAKER_01: Charged like $7 or something.
- 3:17:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it was like $10 or something.
- 3:18:03SPEAKER_01: That's just cringy.
- 3:18:05SPEAKER_00: I noticed he threw a towel out into the audience.
- 3:18:07SPEAKER_00: That's going to cost you $10.
- 3:18:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's cringeworthy there.
- 3:18:13SPEAKER_01: That's way too cheap.
- 3:18:15SPEAKER_01: That's just cheap.
- 3:18:18SPEAKER_01: That's not good business.
- 3:18:20SPEAKER_01: Budgeting, that's just cheap.
- 3:18:21SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's just, well, again, that's just wielding power.
- 3:18:26SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 3:18:26SPEAKER_00: It's just like, well, I have the authority to keep you under my thumb.
- 3:18:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:18:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:18:36SPEAKER_01: And the sad part is if Ted didn't pay it, he'd get kicked off the fucking tour.
- 3:18:39SPEAKER_01: Yeah, pretty much.
- 3:18:40SPEAKER_01: That sucks.
- 3:18:43SPEAKER_01: All right, let's get the fuck out of here.
- 3:18:44SPEAKER_01: I think I'm done.
- 3:18:45SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 3:18:47SPEAKER_00: All right, well, it's been a fun and fast show.
- 3:18:50SPEAKER_00: Yep.
- 3:18:51SPEAKER_00: I apologize.
- 3:18:52SPEAKER_00: I could not get to everybody's request.
- 3:18:55SPEAKER_00: There's a couple of requests I did not get to.
- 3:18:58SPEAKER_00: So do not feel as if I was selecting you and you were left out because that is not the case.
- 3:19:06SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 3:19:07SPEAKER_00: But we still appreciate your patronage.
- 3:19:10SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 3:19:11SPEAKER_00: So I apologize to Winter Steel.
- 3:19:13SPEAKER_00: I didn't get to his Black Angels.
- 3:19:17SPEAKER_00: And I apologize to who else did I not get to here?
- 3:19:24SPEAKER_00: One or two more.
- 3:19:25SPEAKER_00: But regardless of that, I'm going to leave you with a band called Electric Cowboy.
- 3:19:32SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 3:19:34SPEAKER_00: Which apparently Shelly Rocks is a big fan of.
- 3:19:38SPEAKER_00: I like them too.
- 3:19:39SPEAKER_01: She turned me on to them.
- 3:19:40SPEAKER_01: They're good.
- 3:19:41SPEAKER_00: Well, she says this is her new guilty pleasure.
- 3:19:44SPEAKER_00: I like them.
- 3:19:45SPEAKER_00: So, and again, I don't know anything about them.
- 3:19:48SPEAKER_00: I've got to learn about them.
- 3:19:49SPEAKER_01: We played them a couple weeks ago.
- 3:19:51SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 3:19:52SPEAKER_00: We sampled them, I believe.
- 3:19:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we played that song that starts off as the Backstreet Boys before going crazy.
- 3:19:58SPEAKER_00: Oh, that's the one that went...
- 3:20:00SPEAKER_00: All death metal.
- 3:20:02SPEAKER_00: It went from Jack Street Boys to death metal.
- 3:20:05SPEAKER_00: Right, right, right, right, right.
- 3:20:07SPEAKER_00: So Shelly Rock says,
- 3:20:09SPEAKER_00: please, please, can I hear Electric Cowboy Mind Reader from their album Techno?
- 3:20:18SPEAKER_00: I'd be forever grateful to you.
- 3:20:20SPEAKER_00: Well, how grateful will you be to me, Shelly, for playing this?
- 3:20:24SPEAKER_01: All right, don't be trading my $5 for your blowjob.
- 3:20:29SPEAKER_00: Stop it.
- 3:20:30SPEAKER_00: What's in it for me, Shelly?
- 3:20:32SPEAKER_00: What is in it for me?
- 3:20:36SPEAKER_00: This band are a current guilty pleasure of mine.
- 3:20:40SPEAKER_00: So we're going to leave you with some of this electric call boy.
- 3:20:46SPEAKER_00: And satisfy, scratch an itch apparently that Shelly has.
- 3:20:51SPEAKER_00: There you go.
- 3:20:52SPEAKER_00: And maybe she'll scratch.
- 3:20:53SPEAKER_01: And next week you'll be scratching an itch, right?
- 3:20:55SPEAKER_00: Maybe I'll have one.
- 3:20:56SPEAKER_00: Itch to get out again?
- 3:20:57SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 3:20:57SPEAKER_01: Because you'll be out at the,
- 3:21:00SPEAKER_00: where are you going to be?
- 3:21:02SPEAKER_00: I will be in Dayton, Ohio on Saturday, and I will be in Indianapolis on Sunday.
- 3:21:10SPEAKER_01: Right on.
- 3:21:11SPEAKER_01: Well, I will be here, believe it or not.
- 3:21:14SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 3:21:14SPEAKER_01: I will be doing a live show.
- 3:21:16SPEAKER_01: Holy shit.
- 3:21:18SPEAKER_01: On next Saturday.
- 3:21:19SPEAKER_03: No way.
- 3:21:20SPEAKER_01: I am.
- 3:21:22SPEAKER_01: It's going to be myself and my guy Matt Hartnett that I did Aftershocks with.
- 3:21:27SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 3:21:27SPEAKER_01: We're going to do that.
- 3:21:28SPEAKER_01: Jim Florentine's going to stop by because he's got his new stuff to promote
- 3:21:33SPEAKER_01: that comes out the Friday, like literally the day before.
- 3:21:37SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 3:21:38SPEAKER_01: So Jim is going to stop by as well, and we are going to talk.
- 3:21:41SPEAKER_01: About the 10 or 15 concerts he's been to all summer long.
- 3:21:46SPEAKER_01: Very good.
- 3:21:48SPEAKER_01: We'll be shooting the shit with Mr. Florentine.
- 3:21:51SPEAKER_00: Very good.
- 3:21:51SPEAKER_01: He actually texted me today.
- 3:21:53SPEAKER_01: He's like, I don't just want to talk about my special.
- 3:21:55SPEAKER_01: I want to talk about all these concerts.
- 3:21:57SPEAKER_01: I was like, dude, you can come on and talk about whatever the fuck you want.
- 3:22:01SPEAKER_01: I don't care.
- 3:22:02SPEAKER_00: It's all good.
- 3:22:04SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 3:22:05SPEAKER_00: Well, again,
- 3:22:06SPEAKER_00: if you're in the Dayton, Ohio,
- 3:22:08SPEAKER_00: Huber Heights area on Saturday and Indianapolis on Sunday,
- 3:22:14SPEAKER_00: I will be out there with the Doc and Boys, as we said earlier.
- 3:22:19SPEAKER_00: And, you know, I'm sorry I'm going to miss the show with Jim Florentine.
- 3:22:24SPEAKER_00: Well, you have locals.
- 3:22:25SPEAKER_00: You can catch up.
- 3:22:26SPEAKER_00: I know, but I'd like to be a part of it, though.
- 3:22:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah, well, Jim will come on again and again and again.
- 3:22:34SPEAKER_01: He loves us.
- 3:22:34SPEAKER_01: I'm sure he will.
- 3:22:36SPEAKER_00: Well, he needs to help us get Kumia on.
- 3:22:40SPEAKER_00: Kumia, Oakerson.
- 3:22:43SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 3:22:44SPEAKER_01: He's in that world.
- 3:22:44SPEAKER_01: We got to get that going.
- 3:22:46SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 3:22:46SPEAKER_00: It's just like, why did Kumia bail on us?
- 3:22:48SPEAKER_00: That's what I don't understand.
- 3:22:51SPEAKER_00: It's too good for us, I guess.
- 3:22:53SPEAKER_00: I guess.
- 3:22:54SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 3:22:55SPEAKER_00: Well, we're going to get out of here.
- 3:22:56SPEAKER_00: Chris is actually going to do a show in my absence.
- 3:22:59SPEAKER_00: I am.
- 3:23:00SPEAKER_00: That's a rarity.
