- 1:13SPEAKER_01: My dedication to this show is legendary.
- 1:16SPEAKER_02: It is.
- 1:17SPEAKER_02: Or really what it means is since I blew off two weeks ago,
- 1:20SPEAKER_02: I just couldn't do it two weeks out of three.
- 1:22SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 1:23SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, you did.
- 1:24SPEAKER_01: You did.
- 1:25SPEAKER_01: You could have taken off tonight, you know, but again, I know you're.
- 1:30SPEAKER_01: You know, you feel an obligation to the fans and to the show and to me.
- 1:35So you decided to forego vicious rumors and come out for the
- 1:40show tonight.
- 1:41SPEAKER_02: I did.
- 1:42SPEAKER_02: And I've got plans tomorrow.
- 1:43SPEAKER_02: So it's not like it's a wasted weekend.
- 1:47SPEAKER_02: I'm going to see Landau tomorrow night.
- 1:48SPEAKER_02: So, you know, it's one day delay of going to do something.
- 1:54SPEAKER_01: And this is one of the final shows of Landau doing it locally?
- 1:59SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 1:59SPEAKER_01: Well, this is not locally, but at the funny stop.
- 2:02SPEAKER_02: The funny stop closes.
- 2:03I mean,
- 2:04well,
- 2:04you don't have to go to Cleveland is what I'm trying to say.
- 2:06SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 2:07SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:07SPEAKER_02: After this, I'll have to go to shitty hilarities or whatever again.
- 2:10SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:11SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 2:11SPEAKER_02: So locally for you.
- 2:13SPEAKER_02: For me, I guess.
- 2:14SPEAKER_02: I mean, Cuyahoga Falls is, you know me, Cuyahoga Falls is travel to me.
- 2:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:19Well,
- 2:20somehow I was able to travel from Cuyahoga Falls to have lunch
- 2:23with you.
- 2:24SPEAKER_01: So, uh,
- 2:25SPEAKER_02: But see, you just consider that lunch.
- 2:28SPEAKER_02: I would consider that a road trip and lunch.
- 2:30SPEAKER_02: That's the difference.
- 2:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I know.
- 2:33SPEAKER_01: That is kind of funny, though.
- 2:35SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's all of 20 minutes.
- 2:37SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know.
- 2:38SPEAKER_02: What is it, 14 miles or something?
- 2:40SPEAKER_02: Something like that.
- 2:43SPEAKER_02: I hate to travel.
- 2:44SPEAKER_02: I hate it.
- 2:44SPEAKER_02: I just don't like it, but whatever.
- 2:48At least I made it out on,
- 2:50was that Monday,
- 2:51Tuesday,
- 2:51whatever day that was that I saw you.
- 2:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was on Monday.
- 2:55SPEAKER_02: On Monday.
- 2:55SPEAKER_02: And I'm going to make it out again tomorrow.
- 2:57SPEAKER_02: And I might make it out again next week to go see Don Jameson as well.
- 3:02SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 3:02SPEAKER_01: But you missed out on going to see Eddie Trunk.
- 3:06SPEAKER_02: I did miss out on going to see Eddie Trunk.
- 3:09SPEAKER_01: I was going to actually ask you about that last week,
- 3:11SPEAKER_01: and somehow I got sidetracked,
- 3:13SPEAKER_01: and I was going to ask,
- 3:14SPEAKER_01: how was your excursion to see Eddie Trunk?
- 3:18And then I figured,
- 3:18well,
- 3:19if you actually did that,
- 3:20that would have been a topic of discussion.
- 3:23SPEAKER_02: Honestly, and I hate to admit it, I just plain forgot.
- 3:28SPEAKER_02: I just forgot there was nobody else.
- 3:31SPEAKER_02: I asked a few people if they wanted to go.
- 3:33SPEAKER_02: It was a resounding no.
- 3:35SPEAKER_02: So there was nobody to remind me,
- 3:37SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 3:37SPEAKER_02: because a lot of times I get something on my calendar and
- 3:41SPEAKER_02: And then like,
- 3:43SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 3:43SPEAKER_02: as you know,
- 3:43SPEAKER_02: I do stuff with about three people with Kelly,
- 3:46SPEAKER_02: John and Stephanie.
- 3:47SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:48SPEAKER_02: And usually when I'm doing that stuff,
- 3:51SPEAKER_02: one of the three hits me up,
- 3:52SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 3:53SPEAKER_02: a day or two ahead of time with,
- 3:55SPEAKER_02: cause they're so used to me bailing on shit.
- 3:57One of the three hits me up with the,
- 4:00Hey,
- 4:00are we still doing this on Monday?
- 4:03SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 4:03SPEAKER_02: And no one did.
- 4:04SPEAKER_02: And I just plain forgot.
- 4:05SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 4:06SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 4:07SPEAKER_01: Well,
- 4:07SPEAKER_01: you and I,
- 4:08SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 4:09SPEAKER_01: potentially you were going to do dinner on Sunday and then,
- 4:13SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 4:13SPEAKER_01: your,
- 4:14your other obligations got in the way and then we were going to
- 4:16do dinner on Monday
- 4:18SPEAKER_01: and then your obligations got in the way.
- 4:20So you were able to squeak in some lunch on Monday afternoon
- 4:26and we got to have gay guy service.
- 4:29SPEAKER_01: We did.
- 4:29SPEAKER_01: Hi, what kind of sandwich would you like, sir?
- 4:33SPEAKER_00: Well,
- 4:34i couldn't tell is that a is that a gay or is that a trans no
- 4:38that's a gay he's
- 4:39full gay oh okay it's a guy i couldn't tell from that you know
- 4:43the hair kind of
- 4:44like looked like a you know like a 50s mom mom style hair and
- 4:50then he's got like
- 4:52SPEAKER_01: sort of boobs i think yeah but he weighs like 112 pounds but with tits
- 4:59SPEAKER_01: And then the voice is sort of feminine.
- 5:02SPEAKER_01: I couldn't even hear him.
- 5:05SPEAKER_01: Well, that's what I'm saying.
- 5:07SPEAKER_01: It was so feminine.
- 5:10SPEAKER_01: And I remember going there with you one other time.
- 5:15SPEAKER_01: I had totally forgot.
- 5:17SPEAKER_01: I was like, have I been here before?
- 5:19SPEAKER_01: And then as soon as I saw that waiter,

- 12:14SPEAKER_01: But,
- 12:15SPEAKER_01: but boy,
- 12:15SPEAKER_01: I'll tell you the,
- 12:16SPEAKER_01: the people that,
- 12:17SPEAKER_01: uh,
- 12:18SPEAKER_01: today in today's environment,
- 12:20SPEAKER_01: the things that we said and did in the,
- 12:22SPEAKER_01: in the pranks that we pulled and all the things that,
- 12:25SPEAKER_01: and,
- 12:26SPEAKER_01: and this was not just among the employees,
- 12:28SPEAKER_01: this was among the management too.
- 12:30SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 12:30You know,
- 12:31even it was kind of funny because we were discussing a manager,
- 12:34uh,
- 12:35that we all liked he was uh he was he had just he had been in
- 12:40the marines right and
- 12:42he was uh he he had become a bob evans manager so he he still
- 12:48had kind of the
- 12:49military way of running things you know just very regimented
- 12:54you know sure but he
- 12:55SPEAKER_01: still had a really good sense of humor
- 12:58And he'd always be goofing with the rest of us,
- 13:03even though he was a serious manager.
- 13:05SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 13:06SPEAKER_01: When we could have fun as well.
- 13:08SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 13:09SPEAKER_01: And he used to call the waitresses hookers.
- 13:14okay i mean he literally would call them hookers nice he'd be
- 13:19sitting at the at the
- 13:20counter drinking coffee or something and he had uh the keys for
- 13:26the storerooms and
- 13:27SPEAKER_01: things on his on his belt
- 13:30SPEAKER_01: And they'd say, Mike, we need to get into the storeroom.
- 13:33SPEAKER_01: We need some napkins or some to-go cups or some supplies or something.
- 13:38SPEAKER_01: Because I'll be there in a minute.
- 13:40And they'd be kind of waiting around for him to get up and go
- 13:43open up the storeroom
- 13:44SPEAKER_01: because everything was lock and key.
- 13:47And so they would just kind of make their way over while he's
- 13:51sitting at the
- 13:52SPEAKER_01: counter and act like they're talking to him.
- 13:54SPEAKER_01: And they would try to sneak down and unsnap the...
- 13:59the key ring off of his belt to try to get the keys and if he
- 14:04caught him doing it
- 14:05he would just like whip around in the chair he'd go get off me
- 14:08hooker it's funny
- 14:12and it was funny you know but could you imagine doing that
- 14:16today oh yeah you'd go
- 14:17SPEAKER_01: to jail probably you know
- 14:21SPEAKER_01: It was just funny.
- 14:22SPEAKER_01: So we were just kind of reminiscing about that.
- 14:25SPEAKER_02: The term is illegal sex worker.
- 14:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah, exactly.
- 14:32SPEAKER_01: Or is it illegal sex worker?
- 14:35SPEAKER_01: It wouldn't be illegal, just sex worker, I think.
- 14:37SPEAKER_01: Or is it,
- 14:39there's another term that they use now that some kind of adult
- 14:44entertainment or
- 14:45SPEAKER_01: something like that.
- 14:47but it was just kind of funny so we were catching up with all
- 14:50that it was just you
- 14:51know just remembering the stories and all the shenanigans that
- 14:55went on you know i
- 14:57remember uh we were talking my my friend evan ran the dish tank
- 15:02which was the big
- 15:03dishwashing system that they had over there okay and and uh
- 15:07this was early because
- 15:09SPEAKER_01: we all got hired
- 15:11SPEAKER_01: Like two weeks before the actual restaurant opened for the first time.
- 15:16SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 15:16SPEAKER_01: It was brand new.
- 15:19SPEAKER_01: I don't know if you're familiar with how familiar you are,
- 15:23SPEAKER_01: but if you take 77 down toward Canton and at Arlington Road...
- 15:30yeah i know where that is it's up on the hill okay i know right
- 15:33well that was that
- 15:35was brand new okay and it hadn't even been open yet and i think
- 15:38i was the first
- 15:39hire nice and then my two friends there they both got hired
- 15:43before the place opened
- 15:44and we all had to go to training and right you know go there
- 15:48and do mock uh mock
- 15:52SPEAKER_01: orders or whatever exactly all that kind of stuff sure and um
- 15:58SPEAKER_01: Where was I going with this story?
- 15:59SPEAKER_01: Oh, so because it was a new store, everything was by the book.
- 16:04SPEAKER_01: Okay, sure.
- 16:04SPEAKER_01: Everything had to be done by the book.
- 16:06So one of the things that was by the book is that you couldn't
- 16:12close down the dish
- 16:13SPEAKER_01: tank until all the dishes had been run through.
- 16:16SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 16:17SPEAKER_01: So every dish had to be washed.
- 16:20SPEAKER_01: Everything had to be done for the night.
- 16:23SPEAKER_01: There couldn't be one dirty dish left.
- 16:25okay so evan and i worked on sunday nights together and we were
- 16:30the last two in the
- 16:32in the uh restaurant because we had seniority so we got more
- 16:37hours because if you
- 16:38know as things slowed down they would cut staff sure and the
- 16:43the senior people
- 16:44SPEAKER_01: would get to stay on to get more hours during the week right
- 16:48So it was up to the waitresses who worked the counter bar area
- 16:55to bring back the
- 16:55SPEAKER_01: bus tubs full of dishes,
- 16:57SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 16:57and make sure that all the bus tubs were taken to the kitchen
- 17:01and washed before
- 17:02SPEAKER_01: they left for the night.
- 17:03SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 17:03SPEAKER_01: Well,
- 17:04SPEAKER_01: the girl who was working the counter area,
- 17:06SPEAKER_01: she left two bus tubs under the counter full of dishes.
- 17:12SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 17:12SPEAKER_01: And so it's Sunday night and...
- 17:15Both Evan and I had to go to school in the morning because we
- 17:19were both seniors.
- 17:22So we had to go to school and it was already like 1030 going on
- 17:2611 o'clock by the
- 17:27SPEAKER_01: time we were about ready to get closed up.
- 17:29SPEAKER_01: So Evan and part of closing up is everything was stainless steel.
- 17:36So you had to use the stainless steel cleaner and you had to
- 17:40clean all the
- 17:40SPEAKER_01: stainless steel every night.
- 17:43SPEAKER_01: And so he's got the bus, the dish tank closed down.
- 17:46SPEAKER_01: He's got it all rinsed out.
- 17:48SPEAKER_01: He's polishing all the stainless steel.
- 17:51SPEAKER_01: It's all clean.
- 17:52SPEAKER_01: And before you know it, here comes Mike Davis with two full bus tubs.
- 17:57SPEAKER_01: That the waitress left under the counter.
- 18:00And he says,
- 18:01you're going to have to open up the dish tank and run these
- 18:03through.
- 18:04SPEAKER_01: And it was just like, son of a bitch.
- 18:11SPEAKER_01: So he was just furious.
- 18:13SPEAKER_01: And Mike had to go.
- 18:15SPEAKER_01: Mike had to go do the drop, the daily drop.
- 18:20SPEAKER_01: So he left the restaurant with the deposit,
- 18:23the receipts for the day because he had to go to the bank and
- 18:27go do the midnight
- 18:28SPEAKER_01: drop.
- 18:30SPEAKER_01: So while he was away, Evan's like, fuck this.
- 18:32SPEAKER_01: I'm not opening up that dish tank.
- 18:34SPEAKER_01: I just got clean up.
- 18:36He put all those dishes in the garbage bag and he took it out,
- 18:40threw it in the dumpster.
- 18:42Yeah.
- 18:45SPEAKER_01: He says, I'm taking these out to the dumpster.
- 18:47SPEAKER_01: And he did.
- 18:47SPEAKER_01: He dumped them in those green bags.
- 18:49SPEAKER_01: Threw them out.
- 18:50And part of his job for closing up the kitchen was to wheel the
- 18:55blast of the trash out.
- 18:56SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 18:57SPEAKER_01: So he just wheeled out two bus tubs full of dishes out to the dumpster.
- 19:02SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 19:03SPEAKER_01: That's funny.
- 19:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 19:07SPEAKER_01: So by the time Mike got back from the bank, he'd eat all done.
- 19:13SPEAKER_01: We're complete here.
- 19:14SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 19:17SPEAKER_01: So with stories like that, we were just cracking up.
- 19:20SPEAKER_01: It's just so hard to believe that was, you know, 40 plus years ago.
- 19:24SPEAKER_02: I know.
- 19:24SPEAKER_02: It's crazy when you think about that stuff.
- 19:27SPEAKER_02: I think I've told this before on the show, but I do have a similar story.
- 19:31SPEAKER_02: When I worked, when I was in California in the army,
- 19:35I worked a side job at the warehouse,
- 19:37which is a record store or was a record store.
- 19:40SPEAKER_01: I used to shop there.
- 19:40SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 19:41SPEAKER_01: And, and, um, I, I,
- 19:46I was,
- 19:47you know,
- 19:48the clothes guy because I would get there after army work.
- 19:51SPEAKER_02: So I'd get there like six and I'd work like six to 10 or whatever it was.
- 19:55SPEAKER_02: And part of my duties was getting the trash out.
- 19:59SPEAKER_02: And I robbed that place blind by just throwing stuff in the trash.
- 20:03SPEAKER_02: That's how I ended up.
- 20:05SPEAKER_02: The biggest thing I ever stole was the from the warehouse was.
- 20:09that led zeppelin the the big box the four i got i got that the
- 20:13the four cd set i
- 20:14bought i bought that from the warehouse well when i lived in
- 20:18california i obtained
- 20:20mine from the warehouse because i threw it in the garbage i
- 20:24would just take the
- 20:25trash out and i'd throw the trash bag right in my trunk right
- 20:28in the trunk of my
- 20:29car and drive home take out the cds or the yeah it was cds at
- 20:34the time that i was
- 20:35SPEAKER_02: stealing throw the trash away
- 20:38all the time look at you concealing your stealing well and and
- 20:44when i think about
- 20:45it now it's like you know i could have literally got kicked out
- 20:47of the army for
- 20:48doing that true i could have i could have done leavenworth time
- 20:51because they do not
- 20:52play when it comes to theft you know but here i am ah fuck i
- 20:56can't afford this
- 20:57SPEAKER_02: thing but i want it so i'm taking it right stupid
- 21:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I know.
- 21:04SPEAKER_01: But, uh, fun times though.
- 21:05SPEAKER_01: It was, it was good times.
- 21:07SPEAKER_01: You know,
- 21:07SPEAKER_01: we,
- 21:08SPEAKER_01: we had,
- 21:09SPEAKER_01: uh,
- 21:09SPEAKER_01: talked about,
- 21:10SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 21:12SPEAKER_01: finding this guy,
- 21:13SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 21:14SPEAKER_01: and,
- 21:14SPEAKER_01: and seeing if he wanted to meet up with them.
- 21:16SPEAKER_01: And we found out that he,
- 21:18SPEAKER_01: he got killed in a car wreck a few years ago,
- 21:21SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 21:22SPEAKER_01: but,
- 21:22SPEAKER_01: uh,
- 21:22SPEAKER_01: we,
- 21:23SPEAKER_01: we had a blast with that guy always.
- 21:25SPEAKER_01: And oh,
- 21:26SPEAKER_01: the other thing was,
- 21:27SPEAKER_01: is,
- 21:27SPEAKER_01: is Nancy,
- 21:29SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 21:29SPEAKER_01: how girls are,
- 21:30SPEAKER_01: they're really good with the gossip.
- 21:32a lot of stuff went on at that place i wasn't even aware of but
- 21:36because chicks talk
- 21:38uh as as lawn friend once put it when he was here in the cms
- 21:43studio it's called
- 21:45SPEAKER_01: clit chicks leaking information together oh yeah and she knew
- 21:53This manager was fucking this waitress and this waitress was
- 21:57fucking this manager.
- 21:58SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 22:00SPEAKER_01: That was like a little Peyton place over there.
- 22:04SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 22:05SPEAKER_01: I mean, because I left for college in the fall of 82.
- 22:09SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 22:11And my friend Evan and Nancy continued working there for at
- 22:15least another year or so.
- 22:17SPEAKER_01: So a lot of shit transpired there that I wasn't aware of.
- 22:21SPEAKER_01: But she brought me all up to date on, remember so-and-so?
- 22:25SPEAKER_01: Remember that manager, Lynn?
- 22:27SPEAKER_01: Remember this?
- 22:28SPEAKER_01: Remember that?
- 22:28SPEAKER_01: Well, she was doing this with this guy.
- 22:31SPEAKER_01: And remember the manager, Larry?
- 22:34SPEAKER_01: He and Connie were often sneaking off together to do this.
- 22:40it was just kind of funny it's like holy shit this place was
- 22:43this place was
- 22:44incestuous you were sitting there going why didn't i get in on
- 22:47any of this so it
- 22:51was just it was a good time catching up so uh you know seeing
- 22:55you seeing my dad
- 22:56seeing my sister seeing uh some old friends made the made the
- 23:01trip worthwhile
- 23:02Dude,
- 23:03I have to laugh about when you came in the place into the
- 23:08restaurant.
- 23:09SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 23:09SPEAKER_02: Because, man, you horrified everybody in the room.
- 23:14SPEAKER_02: And I know you didn't even notice it.
- 23:15SPEAKER_02: I know you didn't even notice it because you didn't even turn.
- 23:18SPEAKER_02: Oh, it was so great.
- 23:19Because you came in,
- 23:21you're wearing,
- 23:22you look like you're out of Time Cop or something.
- 23:25SPEAKER_02: You got the long coats and, you know, the...
- 23:29SPEAKER_02: the skull rings and the, the, the necklace and everything.
- 23:33SPEAKER_02: And you,
- 23:34SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 23:34SPEAKER_02: you look like you're just like,
- 23:37SPEAKER_02: you look like you're in there to rob the goddamn place.
- 23:42SPEAKER_02: You did.
- 23:43SPEAKER_02: You really did.
- 23:44And,
- 23:44and I,
- 23:45I know you probably didn't pay two shits of attention around
- 23:49you.
- 23:50SPEAKER_01: I didn't even notice.
- 23:52But all around,
- 23:53including me,
- 23:54I'm wearing,
- 23:54you know,
- 23:55a pair of sweats and a hoodie or whatever.
- 23:57SPEAKER_02: Everybody else,
- 23:58SPEAKER_02: first of all,
- 23:59SPEAKER_02: everybody else in the room,
- 24:00SPEAKER_02: we were by far the youngest in the room.
- 24:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 24:03SPEAKER_02: Everybody else was like 60s and 70s.
- 24:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they forget that early bird lunch.
- 24:09SPEAKER_02: Yes, exactly.
- 24:11And every one of them,
- 24:13as soon as you came in,
- 24:14it was one of these things.
- 24:18Like they didn't want to turn their head because they were
- 24:20afraid you were going to
- 24:21SPEAKER_02: come after them.
- 24:22SPEAKER_02: But they were doing this little side look thing.
- 24:24SPEAKER_02: I was fucking dying.
- 24:28SPEAKER_02: I didn't even notice.
- 24:30SPEAKER_02: Oh, my God.
- 24:32SPEAKER_02: Right behind us was a dude and I'm assuming his wife.
- 24:38SPEAKER_02: And they had to be pushing 80.
- 24:40SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 24:41SPEAKER_02: And as soon as you came in and sat down in front of them,
- 24:45SPEAKER_02: I watched the lady tell our gay guy,
- 24:48SPEAKER_02: check,
- 24:48SPEAKER_02: please.
- 24:51SPEAKER_01: We're getting the fuck out of here.
- 24:52SPEAKER_02: Get the fuck out of here.
- 24:57SPEAKER_02: And it just cracked me up because in real life,
- 25:00SPEAKER_02: they should be way more worried about me than you.
- 25:02SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 25:03You know,
- 25:03as far as somebody doing something,
- 25:05you're like the most responsible person ever.
- 25:08SPEAKER_02: I'm a fucking piece of shit.
- 25:10SPEAKER_02: And they're looking at you like, oh, my God, look at this gangster.
- 25:15SPEAKER_01: Road warrior just rocked in here.
- 25:17Yeah.
- 25:18SPEAKER_01: He's probably got two sawed-off shotguns under his coat.
- 25:21SPEAKER_02: Dude, it really was like that.
- 25:23It was hilarious seeing everybody in our little section just
- 25:27kind of giving you the
- 25:29SPEAKER_02: stink eye like they weren't sure if you belong there or not.
- 25:31SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 25:32SPEAKER_01: No, I don't belong anywhere, apparently.
- 25:36SPEAKER_01: It was totally funny.
- 25:37SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 25:38SPEAKER_01: Well, hey, it's always good to keep people on their toes.
- 25:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah, of course.
- 25:42SPEAKER_01: No matter how old they are.
- 25:43SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 25:45SPEAKER_02: It was kind of weird, though, that we had the gay guy that could not.
- 25:49SPEAKER_02: He could have just stuck his finger in your iced tea and put sugar in it.
- 25:53SPEAKER_02: He was so, so fucking gay.
- 25:55SPEAKER_02: Swishy sweet.
- 25:56oh but then when we walked out the bartender guy that was
- 26:00sitting at the bar he was
- 26:01like total butch y'all have a good time yeah great food good

- 26:24SPEAKER_02: He was real gay.
- 26:25SPEAKER_02: I mean, I've met that dude before.
- 26:28SPEAKER_01: He is very gay.
- 26:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:30SPEAKER_01: Like I said,
- 26:31SPEAKER_01: after walking into the place,
- 26:33SPEAKER_01: because it's been so long,
- 26:34SPEAKER_01: I couldn't even tell you how long ago it was,
- 26:36SPEAKER_01: but it's been years.
- 26:38SPEAKER_01: And we must have had lunch there one other time.
- 26:41Yeah,
- 26:41I go there a lot for lunch just because it's pretty good food
- 26:45and it's quick.
- 26:46SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 26:46You know,
- 26:46they don't dick around in 45 minutes for a sandwich or
- 26:50whatever.
- 26:51SPEAKER_02: They're in, they're out, you know.
- 26:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 26:55SPEAKER_01: Well, good time overall.
- 26:56SPEAKER_01: I'm glad I made the trip over.
- 26:59SPEAKER_01: It's just so strange.
- 27:00Sunday,
- 27:01I left here at 9 in the morning and got out on the Indiana and
- 27:07Ohio Turnpike.
- 27:09SPEAKER_01: And that wind was blowing so hard the entire way.
- 27:14SPEAKER_01: I mean...
- 27:16SPEAKER_01: My truck is kind of a high-profile truck,
- 27:18SPEAKER_01: but man,
- 27:19SPEAKER_01: those gusts of wind were just rocking my truck going down the freeway.
- 27:28By the time I got over toward Toledo-Sandusky area,
- 27:32it was 76 degrees outside.
- 27:37and it was it was warm all through the evening and then then uh
- 27:41when i came to see
- 27:42you on monday it was what only in the 30s it was like 30
- 27:46degrees it was stupid yeah
- 27:47and and then when i went came back here on tuesday morning it
- 27:51was only 28 degrees
- 27:53it's like holy shit it went from 76 to 28 just a matter of
- 27:57hours yeah it went from
- 27:59SPEAKER_02: 70 to we had snow
- 28:02SPEAKER_02: We had like the ground was covered again with snow.
- 28:04SPEAKER_02: I was like, what the fuck is this?
- 28:06SPEAKER_02: This is terrible.
- 28:09SPEAKER_01: Just strange.
- 28:09SPEAKER_01: And I was back up in the seventies again today.
- 28:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 28:12SPEAKER_02: I don't think it was that hot here today.
- 28:14SPEAKER_02: I don't know what it is here.
- 28:15SPEAKER_02: It's like 50 something.
- 28:16SPEAKER_02: I know it's too hot for this hoodie in between sets here.
- 28:19SPEAKER_02: I'm going to be taking the hoodie off.
- 28:20SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:21SPEAKER_01: But just, just a week or so ago, you, you had the heaters blowing.
- 28:24SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah, exactly.
- 28:28SPEAKER_01: That must be all that man-made climate change going on.
- 28:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it is.
- 28:31SPEAKER_02: That's what it is.
- 28:32SPEAKER_02: Yeah, exactly.
- 28:34SPEAKER_01: But anyway, overall, a good week.
- 28:37You know,
- 28:37aside from seeing you on Monday,
- 28:39I didn't really hear from you this week.
- 28:42SPEAKER_01: So you must have been, you know, busy with your stuff.
- 28:45SPEAKER_02: Yeah, nose to the grindstone type stuff.
- 28:49SPEAKER_02: As you're aware,
- 28:50SPEAKER_02: and I'm not going to get all into it,
- 28:51SPEAKER_02: but I have a major,
- 28:52SPEAKER_02: major project that I'm involved in right now.
- 28:55SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 28:55SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 28:56SPEAKER_02: That is taking up way too much of my time.
- 28:59SPEAKER_02: Oh, my God.
- 29:00SPEAKER_02: My head hurts just from looking at it.
- 29:02SPEAKER_02: It's like I pull it up on my computer and I'm like, here we go again.
- 29:08SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 29:09SPEAKER_02: Another 500 things I got to learn.
- 29:11SPEAKER_02: Sure.
- 29:13SPEAKER_02: But I'm involved in that and that's taking up a ton of my time.
- 29:16SPEAKER_02: I've been making some changes and stuff to this podcast.
- 29:21SPEAKER_02: world, the classic metal world.
- 29:25SPEAKER_02: Um,
- 29:26SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 29:26SPEAKER_02: as far as like,
- 29:27SPEAKER_02: I cleaned up the locals page a little bit,
- 29:30SPEAKER_02: I'm going to start doing some different stuff on locals.
- 29:33SPEAKER_02: I'm going to,
- 29:34SPEAKER_02: I haven't talked to you about it yet,
- 29:35SPEAKER_02: but I think me and you probably starting next week,
- 29:39SPEAKER_02: if I can get it all together,
- 29:41SPEAKER_02: we're going to do like after the show,
- 29:43SPEAKER_02: do like a 15 minute or 20 minute kind of,
- 29:45SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 29:48SPEAKER_02: you know, extra, you know, for the locals people.
- 29:52SPEAKER_02: Cause they're paying the bills, man.
- 29:53SPEAKER_02: They are.
- 29:54SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 29:55SPEAKER_02: So I,
- 29:55SPEAKER_02: and you know,
- 29:56SPEAKER_02: a lot of times we finished the show and we're,
- 30:00SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 30:00SPEAKER_02: we're still kind of juiced up anyway.
- 30:02SPEAKER_02: So it might be fun to just kind of disconnect everything,
- 30:06SPEAKER_02: but the locals and,
- 30:08SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 30:08SPEAKER_02: and then just go,
- 30:09SPEAKER_02: go and do a little side.
- 30:10SPEAKER_02: Yeah.

- 30:15doing that and um

- 31:45Ask Me Anything things,
- 31:46maybe once a month on Locals.
- 31:49SPEAKER_02: You know, just kind of open it up and...
- 31:51let the chat say hey did you ever fuck a dog or whatever the
- 31:55fuck they asked me
- 31:56because you can imagine what they're going to ask me right you
- 31:59know so um you know
- 32:02so we'll i'm just going to do some things you know i'm just me
- 32:06and my me and my
- 32:07good friend um my good friend alex iverson now that he's
- 32:10retired from podcasting
- 32:12he's helping me evaluate the cms and who is alex iverson my ai
- 32:18oh okay okay
- 32:21But I just threw it into the AI,
- 32:23and I was like,
- 32:24here's everything we do.
- 32:27SPEAKER_02: And I mean everything.
- 32:29SPEAKER_02: This is when I upload this.
- 32:30SPEAKER_02: These are the channels.
- 32:31SPEAKER_02: This is that.
- 32:32SPEAKER_02: This is this.
- 32:34SPEAKER_02: All this different stuff.
- 32:36SPEAKER_02: And it was like, well, this is what you need to change.
- 32:41This is what you need to clean up if you want to make this
- 32:45bigger,
- 32:46better,
- 32:47expand.
- 32:47SPEAKER_02: Because we've been kind of stuck.
- 32:50SPEAKER_02: You know, we've been, we've been sort of at a, at a plan.
- 32:52SPEAKER_02: I mean, we're doing okay.
- 32:53SPEAKER_02: We're doing,
- 32:55SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 32:55SPEAKER_02: between the segments and the live show,
- 32:58SPEAKER_02: we're doing,
- 32:59SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 33:02SPEAKER_02: 20,000,
- 33:02SPEAKER_02: 20,000 or so downloads a week,
- 33:03SPEAKER_02: but we've been there for like a year.
- 33:06SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 33:06SPEAKER_02: And I'm, I don't like being plateaued at all, you know?
- 33:12SPEAKER_02: So, you know, I, I threw it into the AI.
- 33:14SPEAKER_02: I mean, that's what AI is for now.
- 33:16SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 33:17SPEAKER_02: is to help you make evaluations and decisions.
- 33:20And I threw it in and it evaluates and it tells you,
- 33:24well,
- 33:24this is how you should change it.
- 33:25SPEAKER_02: And this is what you should do.
- 33:27SPEAKER_02: And,
- 33:28SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 33:28SPEAKER_02: maybe I'm doing,
- 33:29it told me some things that I was doing that were actually
- 33:32working against the live
- 33:34SPEAKER_02: show.
- 33:34SPEAKER_02: So I'm changing that and,
- 33:35SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 33:37SPEAKER_02: all kinds of little,
- 33:38SPEAKER_02: it's,
- 33:39SPEAKER_02: it's funny that when you're,
- 33:42SPEAKER_02: when you're in it,
- 33:43SPEAKER_02: you don't see it.
- 33:45SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 33:46SPEAKER_02: When you're in the middle of it,
- 33:47when we're doing the show and when I'm putting together the
- 33:50show and whatever,
- 33:51SPEAKER_02: I don't see the holes.
- 33:52SPEAKER_02: I only see the holes that we're filling.
- 33:56And then it's really good to get something inanimate that has
- 33:59no passion toward the
- 34:00SPEAKER_02: classic metal show at all.
- 34:02SPEAKER_02: And I just throw it up there and I say, here, here's what we're doing.
- 34:06SPEAKER_02: Tell me how I can make it better.
- 34:08And it immediately goes,
- 34:11I'm like,
- 34:12holy shit,
- 34:12we're doing a lot of shit wrong.
- 34:16SPEAKER_02: But you don't see it because day to day you get into that groove of,
- 34:19SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 34:21you're doing stuff and you don't get into that groove of
- 34:27looking for stuff anymore.
- 34:28SPEAKER_02: It feels right because it's what you've taught yourself to do.
- 34:32SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 34:33SPEAKER_02: Instead of always looking for that next step.
- 34:36SPEAKER_02: So now I'm using it a little bit to find those next steps.
- 34:40SPEAKER_02: And that's just the way, you know, that's what we're going to do.
- 34:43SPEAKER_02: And Barden, yeah, I'm money-driven.
- 34:45SPEAKER_02: You're goddamn right I am.
- 34:46SPEAKER_02: What do you think of that?
- 34:48SPEAKER_02: I'm just not Barden-driven.
- 34:50SPEAKER_02: Is that a bad thing?
- 34:52SPEAKER_02: Apparently it is.
- 34:53SPEAKER_02: Apparently giving six hours for free is okay.
- 35:00SPEAKER_01: How about 30 years for free?
- 35:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah, well, 30 years, but certainly six hours every week.
- 35:06But God knows I'm a money-grubbing son of a bitch if I go for
- 35:10an extra 15 minutes for
- 35:12SPEAKER_02: For the people that are actually paying the bills.
- 35:15SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 35:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 35:16SPEAKER_02: I'm a bad guy there.
- 35:18SPEAKER_02: Fuck you, Barden.
- 35:19SPEAKER_02: Right in your stupid face.
- 35:21SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 35:24SPEAKER_01: I didn't know that giving value for money was a bad thing.
- 35:28SPEAKER_01: Apparently it is.
- 35:29SPEAKER_01: I thought that's what everybody wants is value for money.
- 35:33SPEAKER_02: You know who doesn't want value for money?
- 35:35SPEAKER_02: The guys that don't want to pay the money.
- 35:38SPEAKER_02: Oh, I see.
- 35:39SPEAKER_02: They want it all for free.
- 35:41We shouldn't give anything to the people that actually pay the
- 35:44bills because they
- 35:47SPEAKER_02: watch for free,
- 35:48SPEAKER_02: and that's just as important.
- 35:50SPEAKER_02: Is it?
- 35:50SPEAKER_02: No.
- 35:51SPEAKER_02: No.
- 35:54no and fuck you barden we're building an audience we're 30

- 36:26SPEAKER_02: Please do.
- 36:28SPEAKER_02: Maybe he'll rip up that fucking $1,200 bill next, next February.
- 36:33SPEAKER_02: Maybe he'll just pay that for you because man,
- 36:35SPEAKER_02: it's all about just having the people listen for free.
- 36:37SPEAKER_02: Right?
- 36:38SPEAKER_00: Right.

- 37:19SPEAKER_01: That's big money.
- 37:20SPEAKER_02: That's almost a sphere ticket.
- 37:22SPEAKER_01: Pretty much.
- 37:23SPEAKER_01: Pretty much.
- 37:27SPEAKER_01: But you got a glimpse of the 30th anniversary logo.
- 37:33SPEAKER_01: I did.
- 37:34SPEAKER_01: Very cool.
- 37:34SPEAKER_01: In its current state.
- 37:36SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 37:37SPEAKER_01: So I'm going to have a couple of small changes made,
- 37:40SPEAKER_01: get your thoughts on it,
- 37:41SPEAKER_01: and then we'll start cranking out some merch.
- 37:46SPEAKER_01: Some merch.

- 37:51SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 37:52SPEAKER_02: Sam, are you going to do it?
- 37:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah, well, of course.
- 37:55SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 37:56Sammy making a bunch of money off us because I have him doing
- 37:59some pinball PA stuff as well.
- 38:01SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 38:03SPEAKER_01: You know,
- 38:04SPEAKER_01: so,
- 38:04SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 38:05SPEAKER_01: there is cost involved here and,
- 38:08SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 38:08SPEAKER_01: most of it comes out of my pocket.
- 38:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 38:12SPEAKER_02: And the little,
- 38:13SPEAKER_02: and I do mean little,
- 38:14that comes in from all this other bullshit that I'm doing on
- 38:18this side that Neely
- 38:20is gracious enough not to take off of me or take half of or any
- 38:23of that shit.
- 38:23SPEAKER_01: Or take any of it.
- 38:24SPEAKER_02: None of it.
- 38:25SPEAKER_02: That's what I'm saying.
- 38:25SPEAKER_02: You just graciously say, here, take it, whatever.
- 38:28SPEAKER_02: Dude, I am putting in at least 40 hours a week into this fucking CMS.
- 38:34At least by the time I edit all the videos and do all the
- 38:37interviews and put
- 38:39everything up and put this for this one for paid people and
- 38:43this one for free and
- 38:44SPEAKER_02: blah,
- 38:45SPEAKER_02: blah,
- 38:45SPEAKER_02: blah,
- 38:45SPEAKER_02: blah,
- 38:45SPEAKER_02: blah.
- 38:45SPEAKER_02: But it's because it's not about money.
- 38:47SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 38:48SPEAKER_02: I mean,
- 38:49SPEAKER_02: by the money that I'm actually making from all this,
- 38:51SPEAKER_02: I'm probably working for about three cents an hour.
- 38:54SPEAKER_01: Well, you're not making any money at all.
- 38:56SPEAKER_02: No, nothing.
- 38:57SPEAKER_02: I'm losing my ass because I should be doing,
- 38:59I should be doing productive things that make me tens of
- 39:04thousands of dollars,
- 39:05SPEAKER_02: but I'm more focused on the fucking CMF.
- 39:07SPEAKER_02: Just like tonight.
- 39:09SPEAKER_02: Where am I?
- 39:10I had an open invitation to come and bring as many people as I
- 39:13want from a member
- 39:15SPEAKER_02: of vicious rumors.
- 39:16SPEAKER_02: And where am I sitting right here?
- 39:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 39:19SPEAKER_01: And the show was literally five minutes from your house.
- 39:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 39:24SPEAKER_02: And I'm sitting right here.
- 39:26SPEAKER_02: So, you know, bitch and moan about the money all you want.
- 39:31SPEAKER_02: I don't give a fuck.
- 39:32SPEAKER_02: Don't listen.
- 39:33SPEAKER_02: How about that?
- 39:33SPEAKER_02: Go listen to Eddie Trunk.
- 39:36SPEAKER_02: Go ahead.
- 39:36SPEAKER_02: Go back to your boy.
- 39:40SPEAKER_02: You're not that important.
- 39:42SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 39:44SPEAKER_02: But we're glad you're here if you want to.
- 39:46SPEAKER_02: Neely's glad you're here.
- 39:49SPEAKER_02: I'm not glad you're here at all, Barden.
- 39:52SPEAKER_02: I wish you'd go away forever.
- 39:56SPEAKER_01: Don't go away mad.
- 39:58SPEAKER_01: Just go away.
- 39:58SPEAKER_01: Go away.
- 39:59SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 40:01SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 40:02SPEAKER_01: Correct.
- 40:05SPEAKER_01: Well,
- 40:05SPEAKER_01: aside from,
- 40:06SPEAKER_01: uh,
- 40:06SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 40:07SPEAKER_01: aside from all the,
- 40:08SPEAKER_01: the mess that,

- 41:00SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I'm just not, I'm not, I'm not good at that.
- 41:03SPEAKER_02: Sitting around, listening to speeches and stuff like that.
- 41:05SPEAKER_02: That's not my thing.
- 41:07SPEAKER_02: I mean, you do it sometimes, but.
- 41:11SPEAKER_02: I'd rather be the guy that's like, kick the fucking ball.
- 41:15SPEAKER_02: That's me.
- 41:16SPEAKER_02: I'm not so good at the,
- 41:18SPEAKER_02: Oh,

- 41:24SPEAKER_02: but all that said,
- 41:25SPEAKER_02: I am honored to be a part of the,
- 41:27SPEAKER_02: of the crunch.
- 41:28SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 41:28SPEAKER_02: I,
- 41:29I can't believe that I've somehow found a way into a
- 41:32professional sports team and
- 41:34SPEAKER_02: I'm having a lot of fun doing it.
- 41:35I really,
- 41:36really enjoy doing the interviews and talking to players and
- 41:40the
- 41:40SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 41:41SPEAKER_02: I,
- 41:41SPEAKER_02: I've been,
- 41:42SPEAKER_02: I,
- 41:42SPEAKER_02: I've made kind of a friendship with one of the players on the team,
- 41:45SPEAKER_02: this,
- 41:45SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 41:46SPEAKER_02: Gabriel P who's,
- 41:47SPEAKER_02: who's awesome.
- 41:47He's a great player,
- 41:49but he gets the shit kicked out of him in every single game.
- 41:53SPEAKER_02: And, and I text back and forth with him and it's fun, man.
- 41:56SPEAKER_02: It's just, I don't know.
- 41:58SPEAKER_02: Um,
- 42:00SPEAKER_02: Kelly says she thinks that I'm just bored with music and that's,
- 42:05that's why I'm enjoying this so much because it's a new
- 42:07challenge on something I've
- 42:09SPEAKER_02: not done before.
- 42:10SPEAKER_02: Um,
- 42:10SPEAKER_02: And she's probably right.
- 42:11Does that mean you're bored with music or you just like another
- 42:16challenge?
- 42:17SPEAKER_02: Well,
- 42:18SPEAKER_02: I always want,
- 42:18SPEAKER_02: you know me,
- 42:20SPEAKER_02: the minute I figure out one thing,
- 42:21SPEAKER_02: I'm looking to do 15 things with it.
- 42:23SPEAKER_02: But I'm not going to lie and say that I'm not bored with music.
- 42:27SPEAKER_02: I am a little bored with music, a little bit.
- 42:30SPEAKER_02: You know, I mean, I look at Blabbermouth every day and I'm just like,
- 42:36don't care don't care don't care care a little don't care this
- 42:42might be good for
- 42:43the cms don't care you know it's just there's just a wave of it
- 42:47right now the this
- 42:48current space is kind of not real good for it and i don't
- 42:53listen to dude 90 of what
- 42:55i'm listening to these days is fucking yacht rock and stuff
- 42:58like that right if i'm
- 43:00SPEAKER_02: working on something
- 43:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I listened to it.
- 43:04SPEAKER_02: Like this week, I interviewed Crimson Glory.
- 43:06I listened to the new Crimson Glory record a few times to make
- 43:09sure I was up to speed with that.
- 43:15SPEAKER_02: But I mean, honestly, I know I did three interviews this week.
- 43:17SPEAKER_02: I don't remember who they were.
- 43:19SPEAKER_02: It's all a blur at this point.
- 43:22SPEAKER_02: And the ones that I do do, oh, I talked to Carmine Apiece.
- 43:27SPEAKER_02: That was fun.
- 43:28SPEAKER_02: Carmine and the Rockers.
- 43:30SPEAKER_02: Carmine and the Rockers.
- 43:31SPEAKER_02: Didn't get off any of those questions.

- 43:43I was asked specifically by Metal Shop to do a couple of
- 43:47interviews with bands that
- 43:48SPEAKER_02: I just don't care about.

- 45:49you know,
- 45:49because if you're anybody else,
- 45:52you would ask those questions.
- 45:53SPEAKER_01: So you're out on tour.
- 45:55SPEAKER_01: Oh, you got a new record.
- 45:56SPEAKER_01: What's that like?
- 45:57You know,
- 45:58instead of,
- 45:59hey,
- 46:00all your former bandmates are dead and you're the lone man
- 46:03standing.
- 46:04SPEAKER_01: So what makes this the band?
- 46:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 46:08And no,
- 46:08Horatio,
- 46:09I just want to correct you,
- 46:10even though I'm not shitting on you.
- 46:12SPEAKER_02: I will correct you.
- 46:12SPEAKER_02: It says Chris is a real metalhead.
- 46:15SPEAKER_02: No, I'm not.
- 46:17SPEAKER_02: I'm definitely not.
- 46:18SPEAKER_01: What is a real metalhead?
- 46:20SPEAKER_02: Like Jackal is a real metalhead.
- 46:23SPEAKER_02: Is he?
- 46:24SPEAKER_02: He has the patch jacket.
- 46:26SPEAKER_02: He won't listen to anything other than what he perceives as metal.
- 46:30SPEAKER_02: You know,
- 46:30SPEAKER_02: he doesn't,
- 46:31SPEAKER_02: he doesn't have,
- 46:32at least he doesn't admit to any guilty pleasures other than
- 46:36metal to him.
- 46:37SPEAKER_02: A guilty pleasure would be a stray Motley Crue song or something,
- 46:41SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 46:42SPEAKER_02: like he could never,
- 46:43SPEAKER_02: it's like,
- 46:44SPEAKER_02: I got trashed this week on,
- 46:46SPEAKER_02: um,
- 46:47SPEAKER_02: on,
- 46:47SPEAKER_02: uh,
- 46:47SPEAKER_02: YouTube,
- 46:48SPEAKER_02: of course.
- 46:49You know,
- 46:49the YouTube brilliant people said that I lost all credibility
- 46:56this week.
- 46:57SPEAKER_02: All credibility.
- 46:59SPEAKER_01: All credibility.
- 47:00SPEAKER_01: So you had to turn in your metal card?
- 47:02SPEAKER_02: Yes, exactly what he was trying to say.
- 47:03SPEAKER_02: He didn't say metal card,
- 47:04SPEAKER_02: but he said,
- 47:05SPEAKER_02: I lost all credibility because I could name the members of New Edition.
- 47:11okay and i was like and i i is one of the few times i think i
- 47:15answered it i was
- 47:15like don't want to be i don't want metal credibility i don't if
- 47:20you want to bring
- 47:21that to me how about just music credibility just kind of like
- 47:25you know i mean i i
- 47:26know a lot of weird sharks when it comes to obscure shit with
- 47:31things that you go
- 47:32how did you even know that of course you know i love all the i
- 47:37love everything
- 47:38SPEAKER_02: really
- 47:40SPEAKER_02: The only thing I don't really like is jazz.
- 47:43SPEAKER_02: I have tried so,
- 47:44SPEAKER_02: and I've tried,
- 47:45SPEAKER_02: I have tried listening to a bunch of jazz records and I don't get it.
- 47:49SPEAKER_02: And I'm not a really big fan of like big band type stuff.
- 47:54SPEAKER_02: I like classical music.
- 47:56SPEAKER_02: I do like classical music.
- 47:57SPEAKER_02: Every once in a while I'll throw on like Beethoven or some shit or the,
- 48:01the Kent state orchestra playing the music of Mozart or
- 48:04whatever the fuck.
- 48:05But,
- 48:06um,
- 48:07you know,
- 48:08by and large,
- 48:08I don't,
- 48:09the,
- 48:10the big band thing that,
- 48:11um,
- 48:11you know okay boppers let's get the let's get the bubble
- 48:15machine running so we can
- 48:16play these songs these groovy numbers for you you know it's
- 48:20like that's not me
- 48:22either but you know even country i'm fine with country these
- 48:25days i'm i i really
- 48:27have become more kid rock kind of turned me into a country fan
- 48:31a little bit and all
- 48:32SPEAKER_02: right
- 48:33And I always was into like Shania Twain and Garth Brooks and,
- 48:38you know,
- 48:39the big giant ones.
- 48:40And we've talked numerous times about my summer of faggotry at
- 48:44the country shows,
- 48:46SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 48:47SPEAKER_02: with Teresa.
- 48:47SPEAKER_02: So, you know, I can even do that.
- 48:50SPEAKER_02: But I don't know.
- 48:51SPEAKER_02: I just see stuff like that.
- 48:53SPEAKER_02: It's like, I don't want to be.
- 48:56SPEAKER_02: Like, like Eddie trunk.
- 49:00SPEAKER_02: And I'm not,
- 49:00SPEAKER_02: I'm not even trying to shit on Eddie trunk,
- 49:02SPEAKER_02: but Eddie likes to be positioned as the guy for metal,
- 49:09SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 49:09SPEAKER_02: whether he is or not,
- 49:10SPEAKER_02: regardless,
- 49:11SPEAKER_02: Jose Mangan,
- 49:12SPEAKER_02: another guy,
- 49:12SPEAKER_02: another metal guy.
- 49:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 49:15SPEAKER_02: I don't want to be that.
- 49:16SPEAKER_02: I,
- 49:17SPEAKER_02: I find that to be tremendously limiting and like,
- 49:21SPEAKER_02: especially like the kind of music that we play on this show.
- 49:24SPEAKER_02: I don't listen to it at all.
- 49:26SPEAKER_02: I do not listen to 80s metal at all unless I'm interviewing somebody.
- 49:31SPEAKER_02: I really don't.
- 49:33SPEAKER_02: If I'm listening to metal,
- 49:34SPEAKER_02: it's like Six Feet Under or Killswitch Engage or,
- 49:39SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 49:39SPEAKER_02: Anal Cunt or,
- 49:42SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 49:42SPEAKER_02: whatever.
- 49:43SPEAKER_02: Heavy, heavy, heavy music.
- 49:45SPEAKER_02: And then my change-up is The Temptations or something.
- 49:51SPEAKER_02: You know, it'll be like, hey...
- 49:53SPEAKER_02: Let me listen to this Ralph Trezvant song or something.
- 49:56SPEAKER_02: You know, it's like, let me go the total other way.
- 49:58SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 50:00SPEAKER_02: But yeah, I don't know.
- 50:01I don't know why people think that everything needs to have a
- 50:03label on it.
- 50:05SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 50:06SPEAKER_01: Like,
- 50:07SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 50:07SPEAKER_01: I,
- 50:09SPEAKER_01: that,
- 50:11that Chicago live at Carnegie hall box set came out five years
- 50:15ago already.
- 50:16SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 50:16SPEAKER_01: I can't, I can't believe it's been five years.
- 50:19SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 50:20SPEAKER_01: But, you know, I bought the CD edition of it.
- 50:23SPEAKER_01: And, of course, the whole thing is on Spotify as well.
- 50:26SPEAKER_01: Of course.
- 50:27And since I was driving to Ohio on Sunday and then I had to
- 50:32drive back here on Tuesday.
- 50:35SPEAKER_02: You've listened to the interviews, but you haven't heard the whole story.
- 50:39SPEAKER_02: I'm Chris Akin, and I'm inviting you to get behind the curtain.

- 51:30SPEAKER_01: It's eight shows that they did in 1971 at Carnegie Hall.
- 51:35SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 51:37SPEAKER_01: 16 CDs worth.
- 51:38SPEAKER_01: That's a lot.
- 51:40SPEAKER_01: And that fulfilled my whole drive to and from Ohio.
- 51:46SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 51:48And listening to all that,
- 51:49because at the time,
- 51:51they were only three albums in at this time.
- 51:53SPEAKER_01: They were actually promoting their third record at this time.
- 51:56And so they were still working out a lot of the tunes and
- 52:01listening to all eight
- 52:03SPEAKER_01: shows during the drive.
- 52:04SPEAKER_01: It it's,
- 52:06SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 52:07SPEAKER_01: they weren't,
- 52:07SPEAKER_01: they didn't stick to the same approach to the songs on all songs.
- 52:13They were changing it up a little bit because they were kind of
- 52:16working it out.
- 52:17SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 52:17SPEAKER_01: You know, and it was kind of fun to listen to it.
- 52:19You know,
- 52:20I listened to it before,
- 52:21but because I was a captive audience in the,
- 52:24in the,
- 52:25truck for four and a half hours each day i was able to kind of
- 52:29concentrate on
- 52:30listening to what was going on there sure and it was just go
- 52:34they kind of changed
- 52:35this song up for a little bit or they did the guitar solo a
- 52:38little different on
- 52:39this one or you know the vocals were just a little bit
- 52:42different on this version
- 52:44because you might have heard you might have heard like seven
- 52:48different versions of
- 52:49SPEAKER_01: the same song throughout that whole eight show set right right
- 52:54but it was kind of interesting to listen to it you know and i
- 52:57got i i re-listened
- 52:59to the whole thing to and from so because i basically had nine
- 53:03hours to kill yeah
- 53:04right so so that uh took up my nine hours of driving and it
- 53:09made it really go fast
- 53:11right you know before you know before i knew it i was holy shit
- 53:14there's the there's
- 53:15SPEAKER_01: the the uh
- 53:17exit for uh akron right now so it was it was a good drive and
- 53:23re-listening to that
- 53:24was just like holy shit that was that was amazing and nice sit
- 53:27there sure that was
- 53:29that was 70 or 55 years ago right 55 i know it's dude we're so
- 53:36old i i hate it
- 53:38SPEAKER_02: Things that I think are modern are 35 years old at this point.
- 53:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 53:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 53:43SPEAKER_01: So it was a, it was a good listen in the, in the truck.
- 53:48That's what I occupied my time with while I was holding the
- 53:52steering wheel for 350 miles.
- 53:54SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 53:55SPEAKER_01: It's funny, but all good.
- 54:00SPEAKER_02: That's good.
- 54:05SPEAKER_01: You're paying attention to the chat room.
- 54:08No,
- 54:08I was switching up to the rumble studio to make sure we're
- 54:11running correctly.
- 54:12SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 54:13SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 54:13SPEAKER_00: I just,
- 54:14SPEAKER_02: I just am check,
- 54:15SPEAKER_02: you know,
- 54:16SPEAKER_02: there's more that goes on than us just talking about random bullshit.
- 54:19SPEAKER_01: The first hour, there's a whole lot of making sure everything's running.
- 54:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah, making sure it's running.
- 54:24SPEAKER_02: I'm not dropping any frames.
- 54:26SPEAKER_02: You know, all this different shit all of a sudden.
- 54:28SPEAKER_02: And you do the same thing on that end.
- 54:29SPEAKER_01: Same thing.
- 54:30I'm making sure that the Wave Lab is running and that the SAMS
- 54:34is broadcasting.
- 54:35SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 54:36SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 54:37SPEAKER_01: Something didn't fuck up somehow.
- 54:39And today,
- 54:40so far,
- 54:41has been glitch-free,
- 54:42aside from the little bit of static.
- 54:43SPEAKER_01: Now you jinxed it.
- 54:45SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 54:46SPEAKER_01: It's going to fall apart now.
