- 1:51Speaker 1: Let's see what's up, nostalgia nerds. I hope you're ready
- 1:58Speaker 1: for a totally radical, gnarly, tubular, bodacious episode of notable nostalgia.
- 2:04Speaker 2: Cowabunga, that's nineties eighties I think.
- 2:07Speaker 1: First up, I feel like Cowabunga came from the Ninja Turtles.
- 2:12Speaker 1: And actually, if you look, that's a signed that that's
- 2:14Speaker 1: signed by Kevin Eastman. Oh nice, Yeah, pretty cool. But
- 2:16Speaker 1: they started in the eighties. So I feel like it's eightiesn.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Okay, cool? What we did there? Well, I'm excited to
- 2:21Speaker 2: Should we travel back? Yeah?
- 2:23Speaker 1: Should we?
- 2:23Speaker 2: Just?
- 2:24Speaker 1: Well, just we'll explain what we're doing. We're gonna go
- 2:26Speaker 1: back in time really quick. We're going to talk about
- 2:28Speaker 1: our favorite song, album, and movie from the nineteen eighties.
- 2:32Speaker 2: Cool, let's get in the time machine.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Whoa, we're here the eighties way different? Wow?
- 2:47Speaker 2: Oh is that Reagan? Who am?
- 2:49Speaker 1: I remember? His wife's nickname was the throat Goat? Oh
- 2:54Speaker 1: was it?
- 2:54Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 2:54Speaker 1: I guess she's like a she.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Was like a movie star back in the day.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Yeah, he was. I didn't know she was a movie through,
- 3:02Speaker 1: but I heard something that she would like go down
- 3:03Speaker 1: on dudes in the studio all the time. So they
- 3:05Speaker 1: called her the throat Goat.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 3:07Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true, because I feel like
- 3:08Speaker 1: goat is like a newer term, like greatest of all time.
- 3:12Speaker 2: So I don't know, maybe her, maybe maybe the former
- 3:16Speaker 2: first Lady. Maybe it was the goat because she was
- 3:19Speaker 2: on all hands and knees and she kind of looked
- 3:21Speaker 2: like a goat.
- 3:21Speaker 1: Or maybe she made a sound of a goat, a
- 3:25Speaker 1: goat man, goat oh, she's still alive. I don't think,
- 3:31Speaker 1: I hope not. I would. I remember speaking of that
- 3:35Speaker 1: throat goat thing. I was talking to one of my friends,
- 3:37Speaker 1: uh or I was talking to somebody at a bar,
- 3:40Speaker 1: and we're talking about like I just have my my
- 3:42Speaker 1: head's full of just just dumb random knowledge, right Yeah.
- 3:45Speaker 1: And then so I was like, yeah, my friends used
- 3:46Speaker 1: to call me if they had questions about stupid shit,
- 3:49Speaker 1: and a lot of times I would know the answer,
- 3:51Speaker 1: and so they would call me Google before Google even started.
- 3:54Speaker 1: But I was like, wait, no, they didn't. Would they
- 3:58Speaker 1: call me that if there's no such thing as Google
- 4:02Speaker 1: the time? Why would they go this guy's Google?
- 4:04Speaker 2: You know, your brain made it seem like they did
- 4:07Speaker 2: call you Google before Google.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know why. And I was like, wait, no,
- 4:10Speaker 1: why would they call me that that there's no reason
- 4:12Speaker 1: for them to call me that.
- 4:13Speaker 2: I had a similar thing when when I was a kid,
- 4:15Speaker 2: I was so convinced that I invented flying cars that
- 4:19Speaker 2: when I when I watched the Jetsons, I'd be like,
- 4:22Speaker 2: that was my idea. Yeah, And I'm sure my sister
- 4:25Speaker 2: was like, you're a fucking asshole.
- 4:26Speaker 1: I think it's like Hannahbarberrier like, we gotta get ahold
- 4:28Speaker 1: of those guys. Yeah, that's funny.
- 4:30Speaker 2: Oh my god, I'm excited to chat about the eighties. Like,
- 4:33Speaker 2: which of the seasons, seasons of the decades so far, sixties, seventies, now, eighties,
- 4:37Speaker 2: which one was the one that was, like, bye, I
- 4:39Speaker 2: am like the easiest for you?
- 4:41Speaker 1: That's I'd probably say the seventies. I'm not a like,
- 4:44Speaker 1: I just I'm not very knowledgeable about the sixties, so
- 4:47Speaker 1: that was kind of tough. I love the seventies and
- 4:48Speaker 1: I don't really like the eighties very much, so like,
- 4:51Speaker 1: but there's some bangers, of course from the eighties, but
- 4:53Speaker 1: I think seventies.
- 4:54Speaker 2: What about you, seventies was definitely the easiest. What was
- 4:57Speaker 2: going on scandal wise in the I know, I'm gonna
- 4:59Speaker 2: have some trivia later, but was there like a war
- 5:02Speaker 2: going on because the Vietnam was like in the sixties
- 5:04Speaker 2: or seventies, right.
- 5:05Speaker 1: Yeah, sixties, late seventies. I think that the Iran contra
- 5:07Speaker 1: thing was in the eighties where it turns out we
- 5:09Speaker 1: were giving money to Iran to fight or we were
- 5:13Speaker 1: giving money to Afghanist I don't know. America has its
- 5:16Speaker 1: fingers in a lot of weird fucking places. But I
- 5:18Speaker 1: know the Iran counter thing was going on.
- 5:21Speaker 2: I was like that a Nintendo game.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Yeah, kind of like with the two like moscular guys
- 5:26Speaker 1: up down, up, down, left, right left right, baba. I
- 5:29Speaker 1: think it's like ninety nine.
- 5:30Speaker 2: I loved it when they laid down because they were
- 5:32Speaker 2: studs culture. They were like those guns. What are you
- 5:37Speaker 2: doing in there? Jeff just playing Nicolas, just playing Nintendo.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. I remember when I lived in Virginia.
- 5:44Speaker 1: That's when I first saw that code and my friend
- 5:46Speaker 1: I was like, oh my gosh it blew mime. I
- 5:48Speaker 1: didn't know like codes are really a thing for video
- 5:51Speaker 1: games until he showed me that. I was like, I
- 5:52Speaker 1: don't know you could do that. It was crazy.
- 5:54Speaker 2: Oh right, should we jump into this situation?
- 5:57Speaker 1: Yeah? I'm down. Should we start with best song? Let's
- 6:00Speaker 1: do it, all right, We'll let you go.
- 6:01Speaker 2: First, all right, my My number one song of the
- 6:03Speaker 2: nineteen eighties was Private Dancer by teenage Turner.
- 6:10Speaker 1: And the men both the same.
- 6:14Speaker 2: You don't look at their faces, you.
- 6:19Speaker 3: Don't ask emmon, I'm your frid pass a dancer.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Fun. Do what you want me to do? I'm your
- 6:30Speaker 2: pride dance dance of harm honey and any old nails.
- 6:38Speaker 2: I'm your friend dancer.
- 6:40Speaker 1: Dancer.
- 6:42Speaker 2: Don't want you? Yes, a friend dance that's a harmonic.
- 6:51Speaker 1: Deals are.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Okay? Do you have any reministion of reministion, I'm gonna
- 7:00Speaker 2: go with it, like reministion of this song.
- 7:03Speaker 1: No, I don't think I've heard this song before.
- 7:05Speaker 2: So this is definitely when when Tina Turner like took
- 7:07Speaker 2: a turn more for like. It was like a darker,
- 7:10Speaker 2: more kind of sexy like kind of voice, structure and song,
- 7:13Speaker 2: and it was originally written for somebody else. I I
- 7:15Speaker 2: didn't lookup who because I don't want to click another link,
- 7:18Speaker 2: but it got thrown over to her, and this is
- 7:21Speaker 2: like her post ike phase. I was gonna ask, okay, yeah,
- 7:25Speaker 2: And then it came out in nineteen eighty four, which
- 7:28Speaker 2: we need to get into nineteen eighty four at some point,
- 7:30Speaker 2: like on a future episode, because like something about that number,
- 7:33Speaker 2: like that year. It's just like brought up so much
- 7:35Speaker 2: in pop culture. I think we might have itched on
- 7:37Speaker 2: this before. Do you remember this at all?
- 7:39Speaker 1: No, not specifically eighty four. I know that that book
- 7:42Speaker 1: that nineteen eighty.
- 7:42Speaker 2: Five Okay, maybe that's what it is. And itched is
- 7:44Speaker 2: another oh sidebar so raspberries, And there was another one
- 7:49Speaker 2: another saying that I I'll come back to it, but
- 7:52Speaker 2: oh raspberries is that a sing?
- 7:56Speaker 1: I feel like I could see it being saying like
- 7:59Speaker 1: someone's like, oh peaches, like I've heard that stuff, so
- 8:01Speaker 1: I could see Oh right, Okay, that.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Was just a tidebar. Okay, So this song reached number
- 8:05Speaker 2: seven on the Billboard Hot one hundred. It was, uh,
- 8:10Speaker 2: just I don't know, just like the power of the song.
- 8:12Speaker 2: I don't know. Here's what I'm gonna say about the
- 8:15Speaker 2: song that I was giggling when we were playing it
- 8:17Speaker 2: was this was a song I should not have been
- 8:19Speaker 2: listening to as a child. But this is what I
- 8:21Speaker 2: would categorize as a swing song. So we maybe my
- 8:24Speaker 2: sister had a swing set, so it would classically blee bey, uh,
- 8:29Speaker 2: you know Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls and some TLC
- 8:32Speaker 2: like in Vogue, like those kind of ones. But sometimes
- 8:35Speaker 2: like Tina Turner would get into that mix, or like
- 8:37Speaker 2: Whitney and Mariah or you know SWV like that kind
- 8:41Speaker 2: of thing. But we should not be children singing Private Dancer. Sure,
- 8:46Speaker 2: but it was definitely what I would categorize as a
- 8:49Speaker 2: swing song.
- 8:49Speaker 1: But I also feel like two at that time, you
- 8:51Speaker 1: probably didn't really understand what the lyrics were. So I
- 8:53Speaker 1: don't know if it's like a super you know, they
- 8:55Speaker 1: have that there is that thing to where it's like
- 8:58Speaker 1: if if you show something you know bad and a
- 9:01Speaker 1: kid doesn't understand, then there's no harm. But if they
- 9:06Speaker 1: if they know what it is and they understand, then
- 9:07Speaker 1: they already knew what it was, so it doesn't really matter,
- 9:10Speaker 1: you know, So I don't know, it's kind of weird.
- 9:11Speaker 2: It was kind of a good I was putting this
- 9:13Speaker 2: together because I've seen, you know, strippers and movies and
- 9:16Speaker 2: stuff like that when I was a child, Because like
- 9:19Speaker 2: we talked on a previous episode, the Summer special about
- 9:22Speaker 2: Vivcate a Fox playing exotic dancer, so we always saw
- 9:26Speaker 2: it from that point of view that like maybe it
- 9:27Speaker 2: was taboo, but it was always like these beautiful women
- 9:30Speaker 2: and Tina Turner gorgeous. But the first time I eighteenth birthday,
- 9:34Speaker 2: I did all the eighteen year old things like the
- 9:36Speaker 2: strip club, bought some cigarettes, went to the porn shop,
- 9:39Speaker 2: lottery tickets, all that jazz and when I went to
- 9:41Speaker 2: the strip club. It was a it was a very
- 9:43Speaker 2: like what the fuck. It was not like I'm not
- 9:46Speaker 2: judging the stripper, do your thing, girl, but it just
- 9:49Speaker 2: was not what I expected.
- 9:51Speaker 1: Yeah, because you know movies, they not all movies, but
- 9:53Speaker 1: a lot of movies they kind of glamorize it and everything,
- 9:55Speaker 1: and then you know, when you're there, you're just like, oh, dude,
- 9:58Speaker 1: that guy hasn't stopped fucking being creepy the whole you
- 10:01Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like it's a really kind of
- 10:02Speaker 1: intense situation.
- 10:03Speaker 2: We were like the you know, the kid We were adults,
- 10:06Speaker 2: but the kids in the in the in the establishment,
- 10:08Speaker 2: and then they were like creepy guys with a cowboy hats,
- 10:10Speaker 2: like staring at him. And I remember another time I
- 10:13Speaker 2: went to the strip club. This stripper was not getting tips.
- 10:16Speaker 2: The dancer was talking tips, and so she sat on
- 10:19Speaker 2: the stage during the song, crossed her arms, crossed her legs,
- 10:22Speaker 2: and just put her head down until people started tipping.
- 10:24Speaker 1: So sad.
- 10:25Speaker 2: Yeah, she was like not giving it away for free.
- 10:27Speaker 2: But then I think I told you in this other episode,
- 10:31Speaker 2: I went to this strip club and this stripper was
- 10:33Speaker 2: like putting her vagina in my face, and then like
- 10:36Speaker 2: fifteen minutes later, she was like, do you want a
- 10:37Speaker 2: private dance? And I had to be like, girl, your
- 10:40Speaker 2: job on the stage is to tempt the guys and
- 10:43Speaker 2: to tease them and to get them wanting more. You
- 10:45Speaker 2: just gave away the whole cat, the whole cow.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I think private dances. I think the
- 10:50Speaker 1: point is to rub against your junk until you like,
- 10:53Speaker 1: come in your pants. Oh she is, But I'm like,
- 10:56Speaker 1: that's disgusting because then for all the rest of the
- 10:58Speaker 1: night you're gonna have fucking come in your pants. I'm like,
- 11:01Speaker 1: who would want that?
- 11:01Speaker 2: Is that what that happens?
- 11:03Speaker 1: I've never had one one day because I would be
- 11:05Speaker 1: too fucking nervous. I wouldn't be able to enjoy myself.
- 11:08Speaker 1: Like my friends like, I'm probably if I had to
- 11:10Speaker 1: put a number on probably say five times, maybe seven
- 11:13Speaker 1: at that. I rarely have gone to ship club, and
- 11:16Speaker 1: a lot of times my friends are like, oh, let's
- 11:17Speaker 1: you know, get you. I'm like, no, I won't enjoy myself.
- 11:19Speaker 1: I'm gonna be awkward, and if you do, I'm just
- 11:21Speaker 1: gonna walk out like I'm not fucking doing that. But
- 11:23Speaker 1: I don't understand what the other purpose would because you
- 11:25Speaker 1: can't touch them.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Yeah, so you just give them extra money. Then you
- 11:28Speaker 2: could do more things, I guess. But like I went
- 11:31Speaker 2: to a the Sojia Green, but I would just trip
- 11:33Speaker 2: club and I was like, oh, usually I'm gay and
- 11:35Speaker 2: then the I'm always gay, but the girls come over
- 11:38Speaker 2: and then they like when they find out that I'm gay,
- 11:39Speaker 2: I like speak or move or whatever. Then they like
- 11:41Speaker 2: their guts hang out. At that point, they're like cool,
- 11:44Speaker 2: you're chill. But then one time it was like my
- 11:45Speaker 2: birthday or something and all of the girls like lined
- 11:49Speaker 2: I got on stage, they sat me down. All the
- 11:51Speaker 2: girls like lined up and their goal was to like
- 11:53Speaker 2: try to get me. It's sexually excited down there. Oh no,
- 11:57Speaker 2: And all they were doing was like plopping down on
- 11:59Speaker 2: my and I was like, this is so uncomfortable. Like
- 12:03Speaker 2: all this is doing is just validating my point that
- 12:05Speaker 2: like this, even if it was the choice I chose, right, yeah,
- 12:10Speaker 2: Like that hit my penis, like yeah that's why.
- 12:14Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never really enjoyed strip clubs. And again, no,
- 12:17Speaker 1: do your thinger. I don't give a I mean, that's
- 12:19Speaker 1: not why I dislike them. I don't think there's anything
- 12:20Speaker 1: wrong with them, just me personally not a big fan.
- 12:23Speaker 1: One of the first times I went to a ship
- 12:24Speaker 1: club though, we were there was this big circle in
- 12:27Speaker 1: the middle of the room was like the main stage,
- 12:29Speaker 1: and We're all sitting there and I'm fucking freezing cold,
- 12:31Speaker 1: and I'm like, is anybody else like insanely cold right now? Wow? Well,
- 12:36Speaker 1: after a little bit, we like get up and leave,
- 12:38Speaker 1: And then before we actually leave, I look and there's
- 12:40Speaker 1: like a huge air conditioner right underneath my, like in
- 12:43Speaker 1: front of me. So I'm just sitting in front of
- 12:45Speaker 1: like I think the only air conditioning the whole place.
- 12:47Speaker 1: I'm like, this is miserable.
- 12:48Speaker 2: But if we go to a strip club ever, I'll
- 12:50Speaker 2: make sure to bring like a little afghan with you,
- 12:52Speaker 2: Like you're the only guy in the strip club that's
- 12:55Speaker 2: like chi chili, give me the heat turned on?
- 13:02Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 13:02Speaker 2: Okay, yeah yeah. So this song definitely brings up nostalgia
- 13:07Speaker 2: from like my twenties when I was like a dirty
- 13:09Speaker 2: little horror and like going to strip clubs all the time.
- 13:11Speaker 2: But no, I've I like the liberation of maybe the
- 13:17Speaker 2: song's a little bit darker, but the liberation of her
- 13:19Speaker 2: being you know, the stuff with Ike and and then
- 13:23Speaker 2: you know, kind of reclaiming her sexuality with a more
- 13:25Speaker 2: provocative song during the eighties, which I think he's talking
- 13:28Speaker 2: about this in the seventies episode. The seventies with especially
- 13:30Speaker 2: with gay culture was more you know, free love and
- 13:34Speaker 2: like the sixties that kind of thing, and then we
- 13:36Speaker 2: go through like the pendulum swing, and the eighties was
- 13:39Speaker 2: a little bit more of like a conservative time, it
- 13:41Speaker 2: seems in a lot of society. So I thought that
- 13:44Speaker 2: this was a good song for her, and not to
- 13:46Speaker 2: just talk about her body, because she's a fuse powerhouse everything,
- 13:50Speaker 2: but like what body part do you think of when
- 13:52Speaker 2: you think of Tina?
- 13:53Speaker 1: Her legs?
- 13:53Speaker 2: Fuck yeah, her legs on like one of the Diva
- 13:56Speaker 2: specials on damn It on H what's it called VH one.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Her legs even in like seventies were a kick it.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Yeah. She didn't like what twenty eighteen or something like
- 14:06Speaker 1: that or like twenty Yeah, but I remember saw a
- 14:10Speaker 1: picture of her in like sixteen or eighteen or something
- 14:11Speaker 1: like that. I was like, damn, she looks really fucking
- 14:14Speaker 1: good for ages. Still, Yeah, it's crazy.
- 14:16Speaker 2: You can feel free bourbon to the bike if you want. Oh,
- 14:19Speaker 2: did you ever watch the Mad Max sequel? Uh uh?
- 14:23Speaker 2: Something with the dome like death Dome or.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Power Dome like the original from like the seventies or.
- 14:29Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's a long time. It's a sequel with yeah,
- 14:32Speaker 2: with Harrison not her mel Gibson, and she plays like
- 14:35Speaker 2: kind of the the second year. She don't remember second Billy. Yeah,
- 14:39Speaker 2: we need to watch that. Yeah, and then and then
- 14:43Speaker 2: it's a sidebar on Tina turned. One other thing I
- 14:45Speaker 2: don't want to say is what's love got to do
- 14:47Speaker 2: with it? With Angela Bassett? She should have won the Oscar.
- 14:50Speaker 2: Then they, you know, kind of pityfucked her a couple
- 14:53Speaker 2: of years ago when she lost the Oscar again and
- 14:56Speaker 2: they gave her like an honorary one. But Angela Bassett
- 14:58Speaker 2: is probably the most beautif full woman.
- 15:00Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. She's wait, yeah, gorgeous. It is crazy.
- 15:03Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is this is my number one song
- 15:05Speaker 2: of the eighties.
- 15:06Speaker 1: Well, it's funny that you did this kind of thing
- 15:08Speaker 1: about her, kind of like opening up, kind of like
- 15:10Speaker 1: freeing herself from kind of what it was before, because
- 15:13Speaker 1: the song I'm Gonna Play is kind of similar to
- 15:15Speaker 1: so really.
- 15:29Speaker 4: She said, I want to go home to summons. You
- 15:32Speaker 4: see now obviously being alone, Why don't you come with me?
- 15:37Speaker 4: I send my babies at home. She's probably worried tonight.
- 15:40Speaker 4: I didn't call on the phone to seven.
- 15:43Speaker 2: I'm already, Diana, what not?
- 15:45Speaker 4: The mate said, the boy baby, I'm all right, said
- 15:52Speaker 4: I'm not gonna dog because I'm fucking the get.
- 15:55Speaker 3: She said, he's not coming.
- 15:56Speaker 2: Back because.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Michael Jackson Dirty Diana. I love that song. It was
- 16:21Speaker 1: written by Michael Jackson, was produced by Quincy Jones. As
- 16:23Speaker 1: from the album Bad and the whole album was him
- 16:27Speaker 1: trying to be a little bit more like dangerous and
- 16:29Speaker 1: kind of not so like Thriller esque and like Michael
- 16:32Speaker 1: Jackson and Jackson five back in the day, so kind
- 16:34Speaker 1: of the same thing. Came out in nineteen eighty eight.
- 16:37Speaker 1: It charted number one on the Billboard Top one hundred.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Kind of a cool fact here. The video was filmed
- 16:43Speaker 1: in March of eighty eight, and it won the very
- 16:45Speaker 1: first award for Number one Video in the World at
- 16:50Speaker 1: the first World Music Awards. Kind of crazy. That's pretty huge, Yeah,
- 16:56Speaker 1: but no, I just love you know. I've always liked
- 16:57Speaker 1: Michael Jackson my entire life. I remember I thought I
- 17:00Speaker 1: was black until my mom said if we were black,
- 17:03Speaker 1: we would look like Michael Jackson. And I was like, oh,
- 17:05Speaker 1: that's when I realized we weren't black. Oh well, and
- 17:08Speaker 1: I was like probably five or something like that. But
- 17:10Speaker 1: uh no, he has a great voice, great music, dancing,
- 17:13Speaker 1: uh you know this and stuff that may or may
- 17:17Speaker 1: not have happened. That's awful. But you know, we've had
- 17:20Speaker 1: this discussion a lot during this podcast. Inherently most people
- 17:23Speaker 1: are just fucking awful. So I don't know, you gotta
- 17:26Speaker 1: separate the art.
- 17:27Speaker 2: I guess the one thing that okay, So he has
- 17:29Speaker 2: a lot of skeletons in his closet probably, and.
- 17:32Speaker 1: I don't have the elephant man skeleton or something, probably.
- 17:35Speaker 2: But like, the thing I can't get passed is the
- 17:38Speaker 2: dangling the kid out the window. Like we all like,
- 17:42Speaker 2: I don't hate him for that. I'm just like, we
- 17:45Speaker 2: talk about hanging our kids out the window.
- 17:47Speaker 1: Don't do it, Yeah, we don't do it. Well, Like,
- 17:50Speaker 1: I don't know his mom was good to him, but
- 17:51Speaker 1: like I don't know if he I don't know if
- 17:53Speaker 1: he knew it was wrong to do that. Yeah, because
- 17:57Speaker 1: he's never been around kids.
- 17:58Speaker 2: Oh oh, God, yeah, I guess it, Like, which one
- 18:03Speaker 2: do you want?
- 18:03Speaker 1: Blake?
- 18:04Speaker 2: Do you want to be dead? Older? Hanging out the window?
- 18:07Speaker 2: But no, I think this is definitely the era that
- 18:09Speaker 2: I like Michael Jackson the best. I think, like, I'm
- 18:11Speaker 2: not gonna go ahead and listen to like Jackson five, Aby,
- 18:14Speaker 2: that's that's weird if I if I'm like middle aged
- 18:17Speaker 2: listening to like Jackson five. But but no, this time,
- 18:20Speaker 2: this era was definitely a good one.
- 18:22Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I thought it was really cool. And he
- 18:24Speaker 1: just has a great voice, Like have you ever listened
- 18:26Speaker 1: to this without the music behind where it's just his vocals? Huh, oh,
- 18:31Speaker 1: good thing you haven't. Because to go home because.
- 18:35Speaker 2: I'm retired to see you now? He sleep being alone?
- 18:38Speaker 1: Why don't you come with me?
- 18:40Speaker 2: I send My baby is at home. She's probably worried tonight.
- 18:44Speaker 2: I didn't call on the phone to say that I'm alright.
- 18:47Speaker 4: Diana walked out to me, just said I'm tonight that
- 18:51Speaker 4: I read to the phone saying baby, and I'm all right,
- 18:55Speaker 4: I said, but I locked the door because I fuck.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Got the keet. She said, He's not gone. The kind
- 19:05Speaker 1: of raspiness his voice is so fucking good. But no,
- 19:09Speaker 1: I've like why, I've read a bunch about Michael Jackson.
- 19:11Speaker 1: I watched like almost every documentary again, but I got
- 19:14Speaker 1: some critic reviews of when this came out, and most
- 19:17Speaker 1: people didn't like this. I guess, which is crazy, so uh,
- 19:21Speaker 1: let me see. Stephen Thomas felt that Dirty Diana and
- 19:24Speaker 1: Man in the Mirror were showcasing Jackson at his worst.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Music critic Oh, these are all music critics, by the way,
- 19:32Speaker 1: I don't really know what like magazines they are because
- 19:34Speaker 1: you've said, yeah, because they're from the eighties, so like
- 19:39Speaker 1: some haveing some don't. But Robert Chris Gao viewed Dirty
- 19:43Speaker 1: Diana as a misogynistic It was as misogynistic as any
- 19:47Speaker 1: piece of metal suck my cock music. I fucking hate
- 19:51Speaker 1: that eighties metal shit. I can't stand this stuff. But
- 19:55Speaker 1: John Parrales described Dirty Diana as reducing Jackson to a
- 19:59Speaker 1: terrified women. John Tatlock considered Dirty Diana as a confused
- 20:04Speaker 1: This One's Pretty tough as a confused, lumbering slog of
- 20:09Speaker 1: a song. Jackson was never convincing in this kind of role,
- 20:12Speaker 1: a boy child trying to write a song about the
- 20:14Speaker 1: kind of women he never meets in the kind of
- 20:17Speaker 1: places he's certainly never been to. Oh okay, they really
- 20:21Speaker 1: moved for hied this one Caddy. Yeah, but one person
- 20:24Speaker 1: from Rolling Stone, this is like the best one I
- 20:26Speaker 1: could find. I mean, I'm sure if I like really looked,
- 20:29Speaker 1: there's some people. But he gave a song a positive review.
- 20:33Speaker 1: He called it a filler still or she called it
- 20:36Speaker 1: a pier fillers. She called it a piller. She still
- 20:41Speaker 1: commented that the song, along with speed Demon, is what
- 20:43Speaker 1: makes bad Richer sexier and better than Thriller's Forgettables. So
- 20:48Speaker 1: they do. Yeah, so it wasn't like the number one
- 20:50Speaker 1: song in the world, but some notable people that have
- 20:53Speaker 1: covered this Bruno, mars Evanescence and The Weekend, And I
- 20:56Speaker 1: thought The Weekend did a great version of it. So yeah,
- 20:59Speaker 1: and I think that the song just badass. I love
- 21:00Speaker 1: the song. It makes me like like party, I'm like fuck. Yeah.
- 21:02Speaker 2: You know, it's definitely a song that, like, I've heard
- 21:04Speaker 2: a lot of, but it's not one of my kind
- 21:06Speaker 2: of go chos when I think of Michael Jackson necessarily.
- 21:09Speaker 2: Oh sure, but one of my favorite Michael Jackson song
- 21:12Speaker 2: is the Free Willy songs. Oh yeah, yeah, that's that
- 21:17Speaker 2: music video with a movie powerful.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Wait is that the one that goes like, hey, free Willy,
- 21:23Speaker 1: how you doing over there? You have some brand new
- 21:25Speaker 1: skates on and some new hair. I hope you don't
- 21:28Speaker 1: eat too much rice because you'll turn into a mice.
- 21:32Speaker 2: You just make that up.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Yeah, I haven't worked on it for a few years. Up,
- 21:36Speaker 1: you haven't worked for a few years.
- 21:39Speaker 2: Kayleen and I would make up like I'm so one
- 21:43Speaker 2: of all the lyrics to the songs and really, I'm
- 21:45Speaker 2: so confused you. I'm so confused. You control my pee,
- 21:49Speaker 2: nobody knows you can poop on me or something like that.
- 21:53Speaker 2: And because we're adults now with.
- 21:56Speaker 1: Alicia Keiths song like I keep following in an as
- 22:00Speaker 1: of love with a horse?
- 22:05Speaker 2: Why horse?
- 22:06Speaker 1: I don't know?
- 22:06Speaker 2: They are the sexiest animal.
- 22:09Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, speaking of that, I guess, well, I guess,
- 22:15Speaker 1: uh So the whole mermaid thing, I think it became
- 22:18Speaker 1: from manates because they ill because I guess like when
- 22:22Speaker 1: manatees were floating, they kind of looked like people, so
- 22:25Speaker 1: then they thought there was like swimming people, but they're manatees.
- 22:29Speaker 1: And I guess the vagina of amanity feels the most
- 22:32Speaker 1: like a human one. So I think that. I guess
- 22:35Speaker 1: those old times were like fucking.
- 22:37Speaker 2: Man, the faces of something a body shame amanite, but
- 22:41Speaker 2: like the faces of amanity look like like Wilford Brindley,
- 22:44Speaker 2: Like that's what they love, you know, they look like
- 22:48Speaker 2: I never see like a like a manate that looks
- 22:50Speaker 2: like uh, you know Charlie's Farron.
- 22:52Speaker 1: Yeah that's true. Yeah I did.
- 22:53Speaker 2: I'd be like, that's so complex, that's so complex.
- 22:58Speaker 1: Looks that man's head looks just like Charlie's there.
- 23:01Speaker 2: Yeah, that would need to be a shirt for sure.
- 23:05Speaker 2: That's oh. I love it. So yeah, good job Michael Jackson.
- 23:09Speaker 1: He's not doing he's not doing too well right now? No,
- 23:12Speaker 1: all right?
- 23:13Speaker 2: What is my number one album? Is Duran Duran. The
- 23:18Speaker 2: album is real. I'll go get wrong me down, Catgether
- 23:34Speaker 2: the show.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Not a wisewhere side. Yeah, so good.
- 24:53Speaker 2: That's just like I went through I think somewhere in
- 24:56Speaker 2: my twenties, like early I would say early twenties went
- 24:59Speaker 2: through really hardcore Duran Duran era because everything's airs to me, sure,
- 25:04Speaker 2: but I just love Duran Duran like they This is nostalgic,
- 25:08Speaker 2: not for my childhood, but definitely yeah, I said. My twenties,
- 25:11Speaker 2: it was go to karaoke for me, like Rio.
- 25:15Speaker 1: Is the first song, right, Yeah, I really liked that song.
- 25:18Speaker 1: I've never heard it until I looked it up. That
- 25:19Speaker 1: song was dope a shit so good.
- 25:21Speaker 2: And then this album came out in an eighty two
- 25:23Speaker 2: and just the video when they're on like the sailboat
- 25:25Speaker 2: or whatever, it's just very like iconic early VH one
- 25:29Speaker 2: each MTV oh music videos like very kind of poorly
- 25:33Speaker 2: shot too. But and then what's the ordinary world on?
- 25:36Speaker 2: You know? Karaoke? And I have a karaoke little story.
- 25:39Speaker 2: So when I was in my twenties, I hit up
- 25:41Speaker 2: karaoke bars all the time, and for some reason there
- 25:45Speaker 2: was someone in the in the bar that just wasn't
- 25:47Speaker 2: feeling me. And they told me that I had sausage
- 25:50Speaker 2: nipples because did you have no shirt of I have
- 25:55Speaker 2: no idea, Like my shirt definitely could have came off.
- 25:58Speaker 2: I don't know, so it seems unlikely to Duran. Duran,
- 26:02Speaker 2: but I just went hard about how she was such
- 26:04Speaker 2: a fucking whore and she was a little stupid bitch
- 26:07Speaker 2: and like she's gonna get come in later. Like I
- 26:09Speaker 2: just went hard on this chick as I was on
- 26:11Speaker 2: stage like singing Duran Duran. Yeah, I roasted her hard.
- 26:16Speaker 1: I love that you said during Durance doesn't seem.
- 26:18Speaker 2: Like songs that like like Backstreet boys like as uh,
- 26:24Speaker 2: let's it quit playing the games of my heart like
- 26:26Speaker 2: their shirts come Yeah, my shirt could have came off
- 26:28Speaker 2: in my twenties to that song. But Duran Duran, like,
- 26:31Speaker 2: I don't know. But one of the songs that is
- 26:33Speaker 2: completely five star like many of them, is a song
- 26:37Speaker 2: called the Chauffeur And it's just very like haunting, and
- 26:40Speaker 2: the video like it's black and white and the dance
- 26:42Speaker 2: scene is just very hypnotic and trans trans not trans Uh,
- 26:50Speaker 2: what's the word I'm looking for. I don't know what
- 26:52Speaker 2: I'm looking for, but just very haunting. It's just beautifully
- 26:57Speaker 2: choreographed and just odd and I just love that. And
- 26:59Speaker 2: then this was like they were part of what was
- 27:01Speaker 2: known as like the Second British Invasion, which so the
- 27:05Speaker 2: Beatles were part of like the British invasion. But like,
- 27:08Speaker 2: is that is that rooted in like the invasion like
- 27:11Speaker 2: the Revolutionary War?
- 27:13Speaker 1: No, Like oh maybe maybe that's no, Maybe I don't know,
- 27:17Speaker 1: maybe that's where they got the name from.
- 27:18Speaker 2: So we got away from like the British people were
- 27:21Speaker 2: not we like, my people invaded this country and killed
- 27:23Speaker 2: your people and then and then the Revolutionary War happened, right.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well kind of it's the killing of the
- 27:31Speaker 1: natives were from from like fourteen hundred to like kind
- 27:34Speaker 1: of now, oh oh my god.
- 27:37Speaker 2: So which side was the indigenous people? What side were
- 27:40Speaker 2: they on? Probably the Britons ones.
- 27:43Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't I'm not that versed in it,
- 27:45Speaker 1: but uh, yeah, this is so heavy. Yeah, I think
- 27:48Speaker 1: it's kind of like which enemy is worse? I guess
- 27:51Speaker 1: at the time, you know.
- 27:52Speaker 2: I don't know, but but I just think saying British
- 27:55Speaker 2: invasion is very odd to say. And like if there
- 27:58Speaker 2: was like a band from you know, Afghanistan, like Afghanistan invasion,
- 28:03Speaker 2: like would you say that. I don't know.
- 28:04Speaker 1: I wonder if there's like multiple like if there's like
- 28:06Speaker 1: ten really dope bands from Afghanistan that got really famous.
- 28:09Speaker 2: Maybe yeah, maybe.
- 28:12Speaker 1: They start they start killing Indians every time. Every time
- 28:16Speaker 1: is what it.
- 28:16Speaker 2: Takes to become American. Jesus stop it with people. Okay,
- 28:21Speaker 2: So yeah, the amazing, amazing, amazing. The cover art is
- 28:26Speaker 2: very like nostalgic too. It just reminds me of those
- 28:30Speaker 2: really corny, tacky like hair salons in the eighties.
- 28:34Speaker 1: I think on the Fri, I think that's what they're
- 28:36Speaker 1: called her Nagels.
- 28:38Speaker 2: Like that that woman who's like very like her skin
- 28:40Speaker 2: is literally white with the black short hair like a
- 28:43Speaker 2: kind of glamour shot.
- 28:45Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're called Nagel. I think the person
- 28:47Speaker 1: who did it was Patrick Nagel. That's why they called naval.
- 28:49Speaker 1: Oh wow, yeah, crazy.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Should have I invented something that I can call it,
- 28:52Speaker 2: like a keller?
- 28:53Speaker 1: That's yeah, yeah, for sure. Invent something really cool though,
- 28:57Speaker 1: like a computer.
- 28:59Speaker 2: But no, and then said something with my coworker, A
- 29:01Speaker 2: by shovel. So it's a shovel that has two shovels
- 29:05Speaker 2: on it, by shovele by shovel like it. So there's
- 29:11Speaker 2: two shovels, so it's shovel. And then this isn't so funny?
- 29:15Speaker 1: Are they the opposite direction?
- 29:16Speaker 2: It would make more sense for them to be facing
- 29:18Speaker 2: the same direction. But two shovels, but I think right
- 29:23Speaker 2: on top of each other, next to each other, like
- 29:25Speaker 2: at like sixty degree angles.
- 29:28Speaker 1: Yeah, but there is one on top of the other one.
- 29:30Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's like a pole like this, you can't
- 29:32Speaker 2: see it, Yeah, like that, but then go down slightly
- 29:35Speaker 2: like that. Yep, boom, it's a by shovel. Yeah. Anyways, Okay,
- 29:42Speaker 2: what is that? Did render it? Okay? This album came
- 29:46Speaker 2: out in eighty two and it's just amazing, Like this
- 29:49Speaker 2: just takes me back and just listening to those three songs,
- 29:51Speaker 2: like it just takes me back to a simpler time.
- 29:53Speaker 2: And there is a song on a later album, I
- 29:55Speaker 2: think it was in the nineties, and there's a song
- 29:57Speaker 2: that I just fucking love. It's called the Electric barber
- 30:00Speaker 2: Do yourself a favor, Go listen to it. It's more electronical,
- 30:03Speaker 2: but it's I think that it's singing about having sex
- 30:07Speaker 2: with a like a sex robot, like a sex toy. Yeah,
- 30:12Speaker 2: plug you in and dim the lights. Electric barberrella, your
- 30:16Speaker 2: perfect skin, something that fill you up. It's just very graphic.
- 30:21Speaker 1: You know, we're pretty liberal like you and I. Now,
- 30:24Speaker 1: do you think in like twenty or thirty years, like
- 30:26Speaker 1: when people are trying to get married to robots are
- 30:27Speaker 1: gonna be like no, no human robot marriage and they're like, Grandpa,
- 30:32Speaker 1: you're being robosexual or no, No, you're being a no,
- 30:38Speaker 1: you're being robo phobic, robophobic, like I'm just telling you
- 30:42Speaker 1: a marriage between a human and a human, and they're
- 30:44Speaker 1: like your old grandpa.
- 30:45Speaker 2: Well yeah, they used to say that, like with the
- 30:47Speaker 2: gay right. They're like, the next thing they're going to
- 30:49Speaker 2: want to do is marry their dog. But then I
- 30:51Speaker 2: watch but then I watch these like shows where but
- 30:55Speaker 2: then I watch these shows where people get married to
- 30:57Speaker 2: like roller coasters, and I'm like, oh, maybe these were right,
- 31:01Speaker 2: Like maybe this guy is like married to his car
- 31:06Speaker 2: and then like had an affair with like another car,
- 31:09Speaker 2: and I'm like, okay, like maybe we did take it
- 31:11Speaker 2: too far, Like okay, what's your number?
- 31:17Speaker 3: One?
- 31:17Speaker 1: I do want to say Duran Duran That second song,
- 31:20Speaker 1: the Do Do Do Do Dude, that's the only song
- 31:22Speaker 1: I knew of them before, and for some reason my head,

- 31:27Speaker 1: the songs to pick them, I'm gonna do a Duran

- 33:55Speaker 1: when I was in fourth grade, and that's fun, you know, cool.
- 33:57Speaker 1: But I got the CD when I was like in
- 33:59Speaker 1: six or seventh grade, and it kind of opened up
- 34:01Speaker 1: rap a little bit more to me, just because all
- 34:03Speaker 1: the rap I listened to prior before that was kind
- 34:05Speaker 1: of like more gangster, kind of darker, and this was
- 34:07Speaker 1: like fun, Like I was like, oh shit, this is
- 34:09Speaker 1: like a good time type rap, you know, And then
- 34:11Speaker 1: it kind of broadened you to like, you know, run
- 34:13Speaker 1: DMC and things like for me at least after that.
- 34:16Speaker 1: But this album's license to ill. It's my BAC Boys.
- 34:19Speaker 1: It came out in nineteen eighty six. It sold over
- 34:21Speaker 1: ten million copies. This actually isn't their first CD. They
- 34:25Speaker 1: actually had two albums before this. They had a punk CD. Oh,
- 34:28Speaker 1: and then I just found out while doing research they
- 34:31Speaker 1: had another CD where it's just like kind of skits
- 34:33Speaker 1: but it was a lot of prank calling. But then
- 34:35Speaker 1: they had like beats on there too, so it was
- 34:37Speaker 1: like a jerky Boys. I've never heard this. I gotta
- 34:39Speaker 1: look into that. But I love the CD because I
- 34:42Speaker 1: love the eight to eight kicks, like, and I think
- 34:43Speaker 1: most of the beats are dope with this one. I
- 34:47Speaker 1: do think a lot of the beats have the guitar,
- 34:50Speaker 1: which is fine, but they just kind of overdo that
- 34:52Speaker 1: a little bit. It's kind of my only like if
- 34:54Speaker 1: I had the nick pick nit pick the CD, it's
- 34:56Speaker 1: gonna be there's a lot of guitars on it, which
- 34:58Speaker 1: you're fine. But Rick Rubin was like a producer on
- 35:00Speaker 1: this or something, so that makes sense. But it has
- 35:04Speaker 1: like a fun punk rock feel to it with it
- 35:06Speaker 1: being you know, rap, which I think is really cool.
- 35:09Speaker 1: I like that they made it kind of a joke,
- 35:11Speaker 1: but in a really well thought out rhyme. It's almost
- 35:13Speaker 1: like every line they have is a great one liner.
- 35:16Speaker 1: But they just kind of go back and forth. And
- 35:18Speaker 1: I'm not saying they're the best rappers of all time.
- 35:20Speaker 1: There's way better rappers, but the way they deliver it
- 35:22Speaker 1: and the way they're having fun and silly but they're
- 35:25Speaker 1: also good lyrics and they're going back and forth is great.
- 35:27Speaker 1: Like I think that's a really amazing thing to be
- 35:29Speaker 1: able to do. I do think they brought rap to
- 35:32Speaker 1: a bigger audience. Being white run DMC was playing huge shows,
- 35:35Speaker 1: but they were opening for Madonna before they got oh right,
- 35:39Speaker 1: So if you think about like and they were like
- 35:41Speaker 1: they kind of went aggressive at it cause they were
- 35:42Speaker 1: like really into wrestling at the time, like the eighties wrestling,
- 35:45Speaker 1: So they would be like, we know, you didn't come
- 35:47Speaker 1: here for this type of music, but we're gonna, you know,
- 35:49Speaker 1: knock your fucking socks off and shit. And then so
- 35:51Speaker 1: they would like do their whole set and have fun
- 35:52Speaker 1: and make it a big, you know, spectacle, and like
- 35:57Speaker 1: with early BC boys, they definitely have kind of like
- 36:00Speaker 1: a like a what like a what's that like when
- 36:03Speaker 1: you're with all the dudes that are in college?
- 36:05Speaker 2: What's that called fraternity?
- 36:07Speaker 1: Yeah, they had like a frat frat bro type persona,
- 36:10Speaker 1: And I think it's just because they were so young,
- 36:12Speaker 1: they basically got a blank check. Like on their first tour,
- 36:14Speaker 1: they had a thirty for thirty foot dick, you know,
- 36:17Speaker 1: and they were just like all about women and partying
- 36:18Speaker 1: and everything. But then they actually, you know, write, like
- 36:22Speaker 1: a few years after that, they were like, that was
- 36:23Speaker 1: fucking dumb. Sorry, guys, you know, we shouldn't do that
- 36:26Speaker 1: type of shit. But I definitely get it because if
- 36:28Speaker 1: I was like nineteen ish and someone's like, hey, you're
- 36:31Speaker 1: gonna go on tour, what do you guys want? I
- 36:33Speaker 1: think that'd be hilarious. Give me a thirty foot dick?
- 36:35Speaker 1: Why not? You know, just I don't know, I think
- 36:36Speaker 1: it's hilarious. But I went down and I rated every
- 36:41Speaker 1: one of their songs okay for this album, so Ryman
- 36:45Speaker 1: and Stealing seven out of ten New Style That's the
- 36:48Speaker 1: first track on this eight out of ten, mainly because
- 36:50Speaker 1: that ending is so sick that whoa. I love that
- 36:54Speaker 1: eight and the eight to eight kicks. That bass sound,
- 36:56Speaker 1: that boom boom is so fucking dope. Uh She's It's okay.
- 37:01Speaker 1: Six out of ten. It's kind of like a funny,
- 37:03Speaker 1: you know song or whatever. Posse in effect eight out
- 37:06Speaker 1: of ten. And I realized all the songs that I
- 37:08Speaker 1: rate higher, they don't really have any of those guitar
- 37:09Speaker 1: sounds in the background. So Slow Ride seven point five
- 37:13Speaker 1: out of ten. Girls six out of ten. I'm not
- 37:16Speaker 1: a big fan of that one. Actually might lower it down,
- 37:18Speaker 1: maybe like a five point five. It's okay, it's just
- 37:21Speaker 1: the beat's kind of weird. It's almost like I don't
- 37:25Speaker 1: like a French clown song.
- 37:26Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 37:26Speaker 1: It's fine. Fight for Your Right not a big just
- 37:29Speaker 1: because I haven't heard it so fucking much. It's it's
- 37:32Speaker 1: an okay song. Six out of ten. No Sleep Till Brooklyn,
- 37:35Speaker 1: same thing. I've heard that one thousand million times six
- 37:38Speaker 1: out of ten. Paul Revere, which is the last song
- 37:41Speaker 1: that I played, is a nine point five out of ten.
- 37:44Speaker 1: I think that's one of the best hip hop songs
- 37:46Speaker 1: of all time. Hold It Now, Hit It seven point five.
- 37:49Speaker 1: Brass Monkey six point five. It's an okay song, But
- 37:52Speaker 1: I just I think it's just fun to party two
- 37:55Speaker 1: slow and Low nine out of ten and time to
- 37:57Speaker 1: Get Ill and nine out of ten. So yeah, I
- 38:00Speaker 1: just love BC Boys. And you know, like twenty fifteen
- 38:03Speaker 1: or something like that, that's probably two maybe twenty ten,
- 38:07Speaker 1: something like that. But they had a Hip Hop Honors
- 38:09Speaker 1: Award VH one and it was BC Boys and like,
- 38:12Speaker 1: I mean, Wu Tang was there, Ice Cube, Uh nah,
- 38:15Speaker 1: I mean everybody was there and they were rocking to
- 38:17Speaker 1: b C Boys because you know, they I think since
- 38:22Speaker 1: they didn't take it super serious, they didn't get the
- 38:26Speaker 1: whole thing kind of like where like Eminem and Vanilla
- 38:29Speaker 1: Iis did like, you know, it's prominently black music, and
- 38:32Speaker 1: now we got these white boys. But I think since
- 38:34Speaker 1: they kind of did it fun, they weren't trying to
- 38:35Speaker 1: say like this is how you got to do it.
- 38:37Speaker 1: They were just having fun with it. I think they
- 38:39Speaker 1: surpassed that, like they were like, oh, these dudes are
- 38:41Speaker 1: just having fun doing hip hop. That's what hip hop's
- 38:43Speaker 1: all about. So I love BC Boys, though.
- 38:45Speaker 2: What's going on with Paul Revere the song? Yeah, Like
- 38:50Speaker 2: Paul Revere was somebody from like colonial times.
- 38:53Speaker 1: Yeah, he was. He was like the two by I
- 38:55Speaker 1: think it's the name. I don't know why they named
- 38:57Speaker 1: it that, but he was the one that's like two
- 38:58Speaker 1: by c one by one candle. I see two candles
- 39:03Speaker 1: by about the French people coming in or the British people.
- 39:06Speaker 1: British people not French.
- 39:07Speaker 2: Okay, because in a previous episode, like the Summer special,
- 39:12Speaker 2: we talked about LFO Summertime Girl Summer Girls, and they
- 39:16Speaker 2: they mentioned Paul Revere.
- 39:18Speaker 1: Yeah, so I wonder if it's ba. I wonder if
- 39:20Speaker 1: they're mentioning the old American revolutionist or if they're mentioning
- 39:24Speaker 1: the beat boys Paul.
- 39:25Speaker 2: I would probably think the beastie boys, right, Like.
- 39:28Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. He did say the Sonnet from
- 39:30Speaker 1: William Shakespeare though, so maybe maybe he's a history buff.
- 39:34Speaker 1: But that beats really dope because they play it's backwards.
- 39:37Speaker 1: That's why it sounds so cool. Like they made a
- 39:40Speaker 1: beat and then play it backwards. That's like it's sick. Yeah,
- 39:44Speaker 1: I think it's one of the best hip hop songs
- 39:45Speaker 1: of all time.
- 39:46Speaker 2: Okay, I'm Google Google shmoggling, and I just want to
- 39:48Speaker 2: see what they said about Paul Revere, and I'm thinking
- 39:53Speaker 2: like they did say Paul Revere, right, LFO, Yeah, like
- 39:57Speaker 2: something about Paul Revere. I feel okay, there was a
- 40:00Speaker 2: good man named Paul Revere. I feel much better baby
- 40:03Speaker 2: when you're near you like fun dip and cheer we coke.
- 40:08Speaker 2: So that's just interesting that out of all of like
- 40:12Speaker 2: the people in history, this this dude was mentioned twice
- 40:17Speaker 2: because of Beastie Boys and LFO.
- 40:19Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean what he did? You know in the
- 40:21Speaker 1: midnight run. That's kind of we kind of forgot about that.
- 40:25Speaker 2: We really need to do, like the next time we
- 40:27Speaker 2: do like a Blast from the Past series, we need
- 40:30Speaker 2: to do like the eighteen nineties and then yeah, seventeen
- 40:33Speaker 2: seventeen ninety. Yeah, it'd be like what was the best
- 40:36Speaker 2: song of you know, if we went.
- 40:37Speaker 1: To seventy hundreds, I would literally just be singing Hamilton
- 40:40Speaker 1: the whole thing. Yeah, all of it.
- 40:43Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god. That yeah, like one of the
- 40:45Speaker 2: big fads of that time, or like the trends or
- 40:48Speaker 2: the scandals, Like we could really do a deep dive.
- 40:51Speaker 2: We be like a Ouiji board and try to get
- 40:52Speaker 2: like these people from the history to I talk to.
- 40:55Speaker 1: And he's like, has anybody sang about me.
- 40:58Speaker 2: Like when he was back in history and doing shit,
- 41:01Speaker 2: I doubt I wonder if he was, Like I really
- 41:03Speaker 2: hope like three blonde white guys like, well, I think.
- 41:07Speaker 1: It's cool because they're all Jewish and so three Jewish
- 41:10Speaker 1: Jude had the number one selling rap city of the eighties.
- 41:13Speaker 1: That's fucking wild. That's crazy.
- 41:15Speaker 2: So uh, Bastie Boys to me growing up, it was
- 41:19Speaker 2: kind of like they were in my side profile. Like
- 41:22Speaker 2: it's like if I went to like the zoo and
- 41:24Speaker 2: we got to like the Tigers. But at that time,
- 41:26Speaker 2: I was like really hungry and like was eating my
- 41:28Speaker 2: burger as we were walking by, Like I think I
- 41:30Speaker 2: kind of missed it, but I definitely like know that
- 41:34Speaker 2: they were have a place in like history of pop
- 41:38Speaker 2: culture for sure.
- 41:39Speaker 1: Yeah. That's so yeah. When I'mca died, that's when I
- 41:41Speaker 1: took two days off of work and just fucking party
- 41:43Speaker 1: and listen to BC.
- 41:44Speaker 2: Like I was bumping like when I was growing up,
- 41:45Speaker 2: like you know Monica and like when Tony Braxton came
- 41:48Speaker 2: out with the new album, I was listening to that.
- 41:49Speaker 2: So I like it wasn't a lot of crossover from
- 41:51Speaker 2: like the Divas to Beastie Boys, except for the Madonna thing.
- 41:55Speaker 2: That's a very fun fact though.
- 41:57Speaker 1: Yeah, the very first tour was opening for Madonna. I
- 41:59Speaker 1: don't know how they I don't know how they got
- 42:01Speaker 1: into that, but that's wild and maybe oh wait, I think, well, no,
- 42:04Speaker 1: for Madonna's from Detroit, so I don't know. I was like,
- 42:06Speaker 1: maybe there's some hometown. I don't know.
- 42:08Speaker 2: It's how you were wondering how they got into that.
- 42:10Speaker 2: It wasn't really hard to get into Donna. Oh she
- 42:15Speaker 2: banged the vanilla eyes.
- 42:17Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he was like in the book, and
- 42:18Speaker 1: that's what like pissed them off or pissed him off
- 42:20Speaker 1: so much because she has like a sex book.
- 42:22Speaker 2: Oh gosh, so she banged him. She banged Sean Penn,
- 42:26Speaker 2: she banged uh guy Ritchie. She just like I think,
- 42:31Speaker 2: does she bang and at Benning's husband Warren Baby? Probably?
- 42:35Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like Warren Baby is kind
- 42:37Speaker 1: of old for that.
- 42:38Speaker 2: But maybe I don't know. Are you looking up who
- 42:41Speaker 2: she banged?
- 42:42Speaker 1: Saying? Who's the book? But I can't find it. But
- 42:45Speaker 1: there's a skateboard trick called the Madonna And there's if
- 42:48Speaker 1: you do it one leg and if you do the
- 42:50Speaker 1: other leg, it's called the Seawan Pen, which is kind
- 42:51Speaker 1: of cool.
- 42:52Speaker 2: I feel like Madonna looked like somebody that would have
- 42:54Speaker 2: a missing leg. But okay, so my, oh there is
- 42:59Speaker 2: something so who So vanilla Ice.
- 43:01Speaker 1: Was of Naomi Campbell appeared in the book. I'm I
- 43:07Speaker 1: bet like, Oh, I think it's just like explicit images.
- 43:10Speaker 1: I don't know if she actually banged them, but I
- 43:12Speaker 1: feel like her and van Ice.
- 43:14Speaker 2: I feel like if somebody was like Madonna, banevilla Ice
- 43:17Speaker 2: would be like, I do not doubt that.
- 43:18Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that makes yeah that one?
- 43:21Speaker 2: Okay, Andy my number? Are you ready for movies to
- 43:25Speaker 2: switch her? Oh? Yeah? So my number one movie of
- 43:28Speaker 2: the eighties is a nineteen eighty three movie called The Outsiders.
- 43:35Speaker 3: Get They're looking for us.
- 43:36Speaker 2: This is our territory. I wish that you could concentrate
- 43:42Speaker 2: on something else, just once in a while.
- 43:45Speaker 1: What's your name? Tony boy Curtis?
- 43:49Speaker 2: These are greatius who tried to pick upon her? Women?
- 44:03Speaker 4: Must be some place to music that Grazier's so ships
- 44:08Speaker 4: must be some place with plain ordinary feople.
- 44:17Speaker 2: You'd be careful.
- 44:20Speaker 1: Ain't it hurting?
- 44:21Speaker 3: Normal gold pull book?
- 44:34Speaker 2: Oh my god?
- 44:35Speaker 1: So good.
- 44:36Speaker 2: So this is a film out adaptation of the nineteen
- 44:38Speaker 2: sixty seven novel that we like read in school, right, Like, yeah,
- 44:42Speaker 2: this is a school read by se Hinton who was
- 44:44Speaker 2: a female.
- 44:46Speaker 1: So well, okay, think it right. But I get where
- 44:53Speaker 1: you're coming from because I wouldn't have known that either,
- 44:54Speaker 1: because I feel like the way she tapped into how
- 44:58Speaker 1: like dudes feel is yeah, I mean like that's yeah
- 45:02Speaker 1: I felt. Yeah. When I first found out she a
- 45:05Speaker 1: female wrote this, I was like, oh wow, Like I
- 45:07Speaker 1: didn't know, so I feel and she was a teenager.
- 45:09Speaker 2: When she wrote it. Yeah really yeah, And then I
- 45:13Speaker 2: just assumed and it's not do something like when is
- 45:17Speaker 2: it true when like female writers they would use initials
- 45:21Speaker 2: so they wouldn't.
- 45:22Speaker 1: Yeah, so they wouldn't think that they were female. Yeah.
- 45:23Speaker 2: Yeah. So this movie was directed by Francis Ford Coopola,
- 45:28Speaker 2: which is crazy. So did he do Godfather right or
- 45:30Speaker 2: one of those things?
- 45:31Speaker 1: So yeah. He also went to World War two and
- 45:32Speaker 1: got a lot of footage for like movies for America
- 45:37Speaker 1: to like play in theaters prior to movies to kind
- 45:40Speaker 1: of make the war effort. People are like, holy shit.
- 45:41Speaker 1: So he recorded World War two a lot of it.
- 45:44Speaker 2: Yeah, he's still alive.
- 45:45Speaker 1: No, I think he did recently.
- 45:47Speaker 2: Oh okay, I'm like, what a dick going, Like, all
- 45:49Speaker 2: these boys are going over there to fight for like
- 45:51Speaker 2: humans and like the world, and he's like, I'm gonna film.
- 45:54Speaker 1: It well, but the War Department asked him to They
- 45:58Speaker 1: needed America, you know, like we need more support.
- 46:00Speaker 2: They try to draft me, and I'm like, can I
- 46:02Speaker 2: just do like some filing. Yeah, Like I want to
- 46:06Speaker 2: be bad ass like Tom Hanks, but not that bad ass.
- 46:08Speaker 1: My buddy told me, he goes, if I ever got drafted,
- 46:10Speaker 1: he goes, I'd either win every single award that you
- 46:13Speaker 1: could possibly win or die in like five seconds. Yeah. Yeah.
- 46:18Speaker 2: So yeah. The plot is, you know, it takes place
- 46:22Speaker 2: I'm guessing like the fifties or whatever, but it you know,
- 46:25Speaker 2: the two groups, the Greasers, which I think the cool
- 46:28Speaker 2: ones for sure, and then the socias that are like
- 46:30Speaker 2: the popular jocks like yeah, and Okay, this is the
- 46:34Speaker 2: part that makes me because I'm a brat pack fanatic.
- 46:37Speaker 2: I love them. I love Breakfast Clout, all these ones. Okay,
- 46:40Speaker 2: so this is the list of characters and actors. This
- 46:43Speaker 2: is amazing. Okay, So we have Dally played by Matt Dyllon, who.
- 46:46Speaker 1: Looks so cool.
- 46:47Speaker 2: Yeah, he's so fucking badass. He looks like a like
- 46:50Speaker 2: he's made of wax or something like his his face
- 46:53Speaker 2: just looks like it was newly formed, like a Really,
- 46:57Speaker 2: he looks like he should be like in a discount
- 46:58Speaker 2: Madam Tusso's Okay. Johnny is played by Ralph Machio. I
- 47:03Speaker 2: cannot say that, motherfucker.
- 47:05Speaker 1: He was the second oldest filming that movie and he looks.
- 47:07Speaker 2: Like that's ridiculous. Was the oldest one Patrick Swayze I
- 47:12Speaker 2: would hope, so I would hope that like Patrick Swayzey
- 47:14Speaker 2: in this movie. But Ralph, like I've never saw a
- 47:19Speaker 2: worst death, Like I've never seen the death that I
- 47:21Speaker 2: was like, Okay, let's wrap this up, like like I
- 47:26Speaker 2: would be like, not, let's wrap this up. I got brunch. Okay.
- 47:31Speaker 2: We have pony Boy played by see Thomas Howell, and
- 47:33Speaker 2: all I'm gonna say is two words, soul.
- 47:35Speaker 1: Man, you know watch that. I've never seen it.
- 47:42Speaker 2: I know that in different times, even those podcasts, I've
- 47:45Speaker 2: said some pretty fucked up things. But where was there
- 47:48Speaker 2: somebody that nobody was like, hey, guys, this is not
- 47:51Speaker 2: a good idea to do a movie about blackface, Like,
- 47:53Speaker 2: this is not a good idea the whole time. God,
- 47:57Speaker 2: he's fucking word.
- 47:59Speaker 1: Okay.
- 47:59Speaker 2: We have Dairy by Patrick Swayze. Love him like ghost
- 48:02Speaker 2: dirty dancing. He was just amazing. His brother, on the
- 48:06Speaker 2: other hand, I think is a stupid piece of shit.
- 48:07Speaker 2: So no, no legitimate reason. But I was watching Million
- 48:12Speaker 2: Dollar Matchmaker, which listener, run, don't walk to your TV
- 48:16Speaker 2: and watch a million dollar Matchmaker. It's a fucking hot mask.
- 48:19Speaker 1: Patrick Swayze has a brother.
- 48:20Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god, if you want the same thing,
- 48:22Speaker 2: I said the same thing. But during the episode that
- 48:24Speaker 2: he's on, he does not let you forget that he's
- 48:27Speaker 2: Patrick sweeze brother. He's like the guy. The woman's like, oh,
- 48:31Speaker 2: what are you into? Well? I was really into this,
- 48:33Speaker 2: but then my brother died Patrick Sweeze, and I was like,
- 48:39Speaker 2: is this guy a millionaire? But he's worth four million?
- 48:41Speaker 2: But I'm like, which, that's a lot more than I have.
- 48:43Speaker 2: But like, no, I don't like this. Okay. So we
- 48:48Speaker 2: have Soda Pop played by Rob Lowe.
- 48:51Speaker 1: This movie. He is so gorgeous. He is one of
- 48:53Speaker 1: the best looking at people of all time in this
- 48:55Speaker 1: movie for sure.
- 48:56Speaker 2: Oh my god, amazing. We have Steve, played by Tom Cruise. Yeah,
- 49:01Speaker 2: so I still I'm like one of those people. I know,
- 49:03Speaker 2: he's a part of a colt and like pretty much
- 49:05Speaker 2: up there, it hasn't really like closed minded ideas about
- 49:09Speaker 2: like mental health and whatever. But he's Tom fucking Cruise.
- 49:12Speaker 1: He's Tom fucking Cruise. I think he's one of like
- 49:15Speaker 1: he there's I don't think there's a lot of like
- 49:18Speaker 1: Hollywood actors left anymore, Like yeah, I mean there because
- 49:21Speaker 1: I think a lot of them they get roles now,
- 49:23Speaker 1: and I think like Marvel did a lot of this,
- 49:24Speaker 1: Like you know, there's, oh, this guy's playing Captain America. Okay,
- 49:28Speaker 1: who Chris Evans? I know, but basically things like that.
- 49:30Speaker 1: But I feel like there's very few people left that
- 49:33Speaker 1: are like, oh, this is a Tom Cruise movie, so
- 49:35Speaker 1: let's go see it. Brad Pitt, you know things like that.
- 49:38Speaker 2: Yeah, Like yeah, because who else, Like I don't know
- 49:40Speaker 2: many movies besides my super specific niches that I would
- 49:44Speaker 2: be like, who's who's a movie star? Right now? Like
- 49:47Speaker 2: I'm getting super tickle to my privates that uh, Uma
- 49:50Speaker 2: Thurman's making a comeback because I just fucking love Uma Thurman. Yeah,
- 49:55Speaker 2: Charlie sayern I think is a movie star.
- 49:57Speaker 1: I love the who else is the movie? Like the
- 50:00Speaker 1: reason I saw F one. I'm not really like those movies,
- 50:03Speaker 1: but it's because I love Brad Pitt and the movie
- 50:05Speaker 1: was a lot of fun. So this is this is
- 50:07Speaker 1: coming to August fifth. Yeah, but if it's still in theaters,
- 50:10Speaker 1: I suggest seeing it in theaters.
- 50:11Speaker 2: Fuck yeah. Okay, So going down the list, because this
- 50:14Speaker 2: list is fucking long. We have two Bit played by
- 50:16Speaker 2: Emilia Estevez, and.
- 50:17Speaker 1: I feel like they and two Bit in the books
- 50:20Speaker 1: is way better than they actually did in the movie.
- 50:22Speaker 1: He's a lot better in the books, but he did
- 50:24Speaker 1: great in the movie though, too so, and.
- 50:26Speaker 2: He's just icon him with Mighty Dogs. We got Breakfast Club.
- 50:29Speaker 2: He's royalty with his dad. His dad's fucking hot, and
- 50:33Speaker 2: then his brother is a fucking hot mess.
- 50:36Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 50:36Speaker 2: Winning we have Cherry played by Diane Lane. She's she's gorgeous,
- 50:42Speaker 2: like sure, forget about it. And then we have Bob
- 50:46Speaker 2: played by Leif Garrett. So he's seventies teen heart throb, heroin,
- 50:50Speaker 2: addict and drunk driver. Not no shame, no shame, but
- 50:55Speaker 2: you see that awkward behind the music back in the
- 50:57Speaker 2: day yeah, for sure.
- 50:58Speaker 1: They like what they meet. Yeah, me at a fucking
- 51:01Speaker 1: park and it's like and then his buddies like, you
- 51:04Speaker 1: actually did me a favor by having me lose my legs?
- 51:07Speaker 2: What the fuck man favor by getting like ten million
- 51:11Speaker 2: dollars or whatever? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would be No,
- 51:13Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say it. Okay, So here are some
- 51:15Speaker 2: of the quotes that I still I still quote to
- 51:18Speaker 2: this day from this movie. Why aren't you afraid of us?
- 51:21Speaker 2: Like you was dalling? Yeah, so good? Mustines are two? Oh,
- 51:26Speaker 2: let's do it for Johnny Man. That's pretty powerful. And
- 51:29Speaker 2: then just the iconic stay Golden pony boy for sure. Yeah,
- 51:33Speaker 2: so yeah, this movie.
- 51:34Speaker 1: Is so good. No, I love this movie. And I
- 51:36Speaker 1: remember the first time I read the book. Uh my
- 51:39Speaker 1: mom showed me this movie and I was really young
- 51:40Speaker 1: and I loved it. And then I read the book
- 51:43Speaker 1: in school and I fucking fell in love. And then
- 51:47Speaker 1: somehow I saw that se Hint and she wrote other books.
- 51:50Speaker 1: So then I read Rumblefish. That was then this is now.
- 51:53Speaker 1: Couldn't get into texts, but Rumblefish is amazing. But I
- 51:58Speaker 1: think that was then. This is now is a better
- 52:00Speaker 1: book than the Outsiders, and I fucking loved The Outsiders.
- 52:04Speaker 1: But I remember the first time I read the book,
- 52:06Speaker 1: they had extra scenes in the book that didn't have
- 52:09Speaker 1: in the movie, and that blew my mind. I guess, actually,
- 52:12Speaker 1: that's probably the first movie book I ever read it. Yeah, movie,
- 52:15Speaker 1: but yeah. And then I remember reading the book again
- 52:18Speaker 1: later on a few years later, and they didn't have that,
- 52:20Speaker 1: and so they had different versions of the.
- 52:22Speaker 2: Book and I was like, what, I didn't know that
- 52:25Speaker 2: editions or what.
- 52:26Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and they added a little bit. I'm not sure,
- 52:28Speaker 1: I don't know why, but there's scenes where they're like
- 52:30Speaker 1: running after everything happens after like Johnny dies, and then
- 52:34Speaker 1: they run after and they catch them. And then if
- 52:36Speaker 1: you have the Blue Ear the DVD of like the
- 52:38Speaker 1: thirty or fortieth anniversary or whatever, you can watch that
- 52:41Speaker 1: scene in the movie. So I was like, oh, crazy,
- 52:43Speaker 1: this is kind of how a picture in my head.
- 52:44Speaker 1: So that was pretty cool. But no, great fucking choice.
- 52:46Speaker 1: This movie is amazing. I think it's every every child
- 52:49Speaker 1: should see this movie, you know, like a coming of age.
- 52:53Speaker 2: This was one that, like the book and the movie
- 52:55Speaker 2: tie in, like was a good one for school because
- 52:58Speaker 2: I did not fucking like we had to read The
- 53:00Speaker 2: Great Gatsby, Like that's not a kid book.
- 53:03Speaker 1: That's so funny because my coworker today said that we
- 53:06Speaker 1: read The Great Gatsby in high school and I don't
- 53:08Speaker 1: remember reading that. The only book I remember now is
- 53:11Speaker 1: this and The Hobbit. I've tried to start The Great
- 53:14Speaker 1: Gasbee like four times and I can't get into it.
- 53:16Speaker 2: No, I'm I'm. As I started to read it, I'm
- 53:18Speaker 2: like like loading my musket because I'm gonna shoot myself.
- 53:21Speaker 2: So I so when I move, I always I never
- 53:24Speaker 2: want to get rid of, like my DVDs because I
- 53:26Speaker 2: always keep on. But I was going through and I had,
- 53:28Speaker 2: I think three copies of The Outsiders. I'm like this, okay,
- 53:31Speaker 2: that makes sense. The other movies I had caught multiple
- 53:34Speaker 2: copies of which blow my mind and Keiley knows this
- 53:36Speaker 2: one is this movie that came out in the two
- 53:38Speaker 2: thousands called Annapolis or Annapolis or what. It's like a
- 53:42Speaker 2: naval academy and it has James Franco and Tyresee talking
- 53:48Speaker 2: about I had multiple copies of that, and the other
- 53:50Speaker 2: one was like Babe, like Babe too, Pig in the City. Yeah,
- 53:55Speaker 2: like those those are the move. Oh babe makes sense.
- 53:57Speaker 2: I love Babe, don't get me wrong, Like I love Babe,
- 54:00Speaker 2: I love pigs. But in Apple, I don't remember ever
- 54:02Speaker 2: really watching that movie unless it was like for like,
- 54:05Speaker 2: you know, back in the day before porn. Oh, sure,
- 54:07Speaker 2: there's a lot of like Shirtless, you know, Tyrese. But yeah, anyway,
- 54:13Speaker 2: so that's my number one movie of the eighties. Like,
- 54:15Speaker 2: there's so many other we just talked about, Like on
- 54:17Speaker 2: the seventies episode, there's the Rocky horror follow up, Shock Treatment,
- 54:20Speaker 2: but I felt like I just really talked about that
- 54:22Speaker 2: a lot. Yeah, but this movie, I definitely was one
- 54:25Speaker 2: that I wish I would have got into, like the Goonies,
- 54:27Speaker 2: because I recently watched The Goonies a few years ago
- 54:29Speaker 2: with Jackson, and I was like, I wish I had
- 54:32Speaker 2: this one growing up.
- 54:33Speaker 1: That's so funny. You say that because I'm I'm in
- 54:36Speaker 1: the same boat as you are. I didn't say, maybe
- 54:39Speaker 1: I saw I lived in Astoria. Yeah, so maybe I
- 54:42Speaker 1: saw when I was a little kid, but I don't
- 54:43Speaker 1: really remember it too much. But when I saw it
- 54:45Speaker 1: as an adult, I'm like, yeah, it's okay, but it
- 54:48Speaker 1: doesn't feel like a kid movie. It feels like an
- 54:51Speaker 1: adult making a kid movie, and it just throws it
- 54:53Speaker 1: off a little bit.
- 54:54Speaker 2: But I think if I would have watched it as
- 54:55Speaker 2: like a seven year old, I would have been like,
- 54:57Speaker 2: this is it? Ye?
- 54:58Speaker 1: Same with like ET. For me feel like if I
- 55:00Speaker 1: was a kid when I saw ET, I would have
- 55:01Speaker 1: enjoyed it. But it was awful.
- 55:03Speaker 2: You wouldn't You wouldn't. That movie traumatized the fuck out
- 55:06Speaker 2: of me. We talked about this before.
- 55:09Speaker 1: Were no people that have seen ET as a kid.
- 55:13Speaker 1: They think it's one of the best movies ever, and
- 55:16Speaker 1: I've never seen it. I saw it when I was
- 55:17Speaker 1: like twenty six, and I'm like, that is garbage. I
- 55:20Speaker 1: don't know why anybody enjoyed that movie.
- 55:22Speaker 2: I have so I watched it as a kid and
- 55:24Speaker 2: I was terrified. Like a listener for this new to
- 55:26Speaker 2: the podcast, we went to Universal Studios and we went
- 55:29Speaker 2: on the ET ride. As soon as I discovered the
- 55:30Speaker 2: ET was into the cart with us, I tried to
- 55:32Speaker 2: jump off and my mom had to hold me in.
- 55:35Speaker 2: Every night, I would cry until my kid. My mom
- 55:38Speaker 2: and my dad rolled my desk chair out of my
- 55:40Speaker 2: room because it looked at ET.
- 55:42Speaker 1: My witch is bonkers. After like the second I've been like, hey,
- 55:45Speaker 1: should we get rid of this?
- 55:46Speaker 2: Yeah, every fucking night. And then my sister, like a
- 55:49Speaker 2: couple of years later, when Furby's came around, there was
- 55:51Speaker 2: like an ET forbe, So she gave me that and
- 55:54Speaker 2: that started going off in the middle of the night.
- 55:55Speaker 2: That nobody likes ET. If you like ET, you're full
- 55:59Speaker 2: of fucking shit.
- 56:00Speaker 1: No, or you haven't watched it since you were like
- 56:02Speaker 1: five or whatever. People watch it.
- 56:04Speaker 2: If you're alone and you're a kid sitting outside and
- 56:06Speaker 2: then alien comes up to you, you would be like scared.
- 56:09Speaker 2: Fucking I know he's scared at the beginning. I would
- 56:11Speaker 2: have fucking murdered that that that alien.
- 56:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw this thing recently on some social media goes.
- 56:15Speaker 1: If ET came around me and my friend, so we
- 56:17Speaker 1: would have beat it to death with hammers, like yeah, probably,
- 56:20Speaker 1: nothing's scary as fuck, you know, Oh.
- 56:21Speaker 2: I would break it. Fucking I was rooting for the
- 56:23Speaker 2: government people. I was like, you go get that motherfucker.
- 56:26Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. And I was not that I'm anti immigration,
- 56:31Speaker 2: but I'm like get out of get out yeah yeah, no, no,
- 56:35Speaker 2: I'm I'm I'm for the other for humans to come here,
- 56:38Speaker 2: not aliens.
- 56:39Speaker 1: See, I think we're already starting in twenty years, are
- 56:41Speaker 1: going to be uh anti alien, anti robot. Here we go,
- 56:45Speaker 1: here we go.
- 56:46Speaker 2: All right, you're gonna be voting for.
- 56:47Speaker 1: Donald Trump Junior. Yeah, he just has a good ideas,
- 56:51Speaker 1: like yeah, this is.
- 56:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 56:54Speaker 1: Oh my god, God damn it, oh God.
- 56:56Speaker 2: Okay, Andy, what is your number one movie of the
- 56:59Speaker 2: nineteen eighties?
- 57:00Speaker 1: I'm with you on There were so many good movies
- 57:02Speaker 1: to choose from, and I almost chose a few, but
- 57:04Speaker 1: this one I saw as a little kid with my dad.
- 57:07Speaker 1: I've shown my daughter's this. It's a really well written movie.
- 57:11Speaker 1: It came out at the very beginning of nineteen eighty.
- 57:14Speaker 1: It's a little movie called Blues Brothers.
- 57:16Speaker 2: Okay Street, Chicago.
- 57:27Speaker 1: It's one hundred and six miles from Chicago.
- 57:30Speaker 2: Got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes.
- 57:33Speaker 2: It's dark and we're wearing sunglasses. Hit it.
- 57:46Speaker 3: Right.
- 57:48Speaker 1: They're not gonna catch us. We're on a mission from God.
- 57:51Speaker 1: You just tell us where they are, you know, be
- 57:53Speaker 1: no trouble.
- 58:06Speaker 2: Of unnecessarily violence, and the apprehension of the Blues Brothers
- 58:10Speaker 2: has been approve.
- 58:16Speaker 1: Are you the police, No, ma'am, We're musicians so good
- 58:22Speaker 1: and listener. I do want to apologize if this episode
- 58:25Speaker 1: has been really loud. I just realized our headphones were
- 58:28Speaker 1: turned down a little bit. Oh my god, I think
- 58:31Speaker 1: we've just been screaming.
- 58:34Speaker 2: We've been yelling this whole time, so I get away.
- 58:39Speaker 1: They're really episode.
- 58:44Speaker 2: That was just yelling about et that was even more yelling.
- 58:49Speaker 1: Yeah, it sounds so loud though that I turned them off.
- 58:52Speaker 1: Oh I love it. Oh my gosh. But this, like
- 58:55Speaker 1: I said as we came up nineteen eighty, it's directed
- 58:57Speaker 1: by John Landis do you know about John Landers?
- 59:00Speaker 2: John landas the director. Okay, yeah, but.
- 59:03Speaker 1: He's directed a bunch of shit. But he got two
- 59:06Speaker 1: kids killed during the making of the Twilight movie from
- 59:10Speaker 1: like a helicopter stunt. And he was told multiple times
- 59:13Speaker 1: that like, hey, this is you, don't do this, it's bad,
- 59:16Speaker 1: but he did it anyways. He got them killed by
- 59:18Speaker 1: continuing the movie. Yeah, he goes, no, we don't need
- 59:20Speaker 1: to cut, we can still do it, and then like,
- 59:22Speaker 1: I can't remember, but I think the helicopter crashed and
- 59:24Speaker 1: killed two kids, but it was across the season there.
- 59:26Speaker 2: I think nobody cares, Oh god, but I think some
- 59:28Speaker 2: people like the pilot should take some of the blame
- 59:30Speaker 2: and the terrence too, for like objecting their kids or
- 59:33Speaker 2: subjecting their kids. And maybe the kids were assholes.
- 59:36Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't know. Yeah, maybe they're the next Hitler. Yeah,
- 59:39Speaker 1: but this was written by Dan Aykroyd and John Landis.
- 59:42Speaker 1: The budget was twenty seven to thirty million dollars. But
- 59:44Speaker 1: it's kind of a funny story. I don't know how funny.
- 59:47Speaker 1: It is kind of mildly interesting, I guess. But so
- 59:50Speaker 1: they started, they started filming this movie before the script
- 59:53Speaker 1: was done and before the budget was actually finalized. So
- 59:57Speaker 1: they finally get a call from the studio and the
- 59:59Speaker 1: studio is like, okay, you have twelve million dollars. And
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: then the production the production assistant did the numbers and
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: he told Joe Landis he goes, We've already spent twelve
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: million dollars. Oh no, So then they moved it up
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: to thirty million.
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: That's a lot of money back then, yeah, for sure.
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: Yeah, because that same year came out the third or
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: the second one of the Star Wars movies came out,
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: and that but just on eighteen million.
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: So oh heroin the Heroin? What no drugs? Like What
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: are they use all that money for Brothers? Is it
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: more impressive than Star Wars? Yeah? Oh wow?
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: They they they got sixty police cars to smash. This
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: is before CGI, so it's all like legit cars and everything.
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: But here's the synopsis of Blues Brothers. Jake Blues rejoins
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: his brother Elwood after being released from prison. But the
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: duo has just days to you to reunite their old
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: R and B band and save the Catholic home where
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: the two were raised, out running the police as they
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: hair through Chicago. So the reason like this movie so much.
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: Oh let me tell you. Let me just show you
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: the cast. So let me just go to the cast.
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: The cast is wild. We have Jake, John Belushi, Elwood,
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: Dan Ackroyd, mystery Woman, Carrie Fisher, Burn Mercer, John Candy, Tucker, McElroy,
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: Charles Napier, Miss Murphy, Aretha Franklin, the Reverend James Brown,
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: Curtis Cab Callaway, Ray Ray, Charles head Nazi, Henry Gibson, Waiter,
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: Paul Rubins, corrections Officer, Frank Oz, County Assessor Steven Spielberg.
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: And then you have the whole Blues Brothers band, which
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: a lot of them were the musicians for Saturn Alive.
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: Damn, this is crazy.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: Yeah right, So here's some fun facts. They used over
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: sixty police cars to crash during the making of this movie.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: They drop a pinto from twelve hundred feet up from
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: a helicopter, a pino like the Pento car. Oh crazy, right,
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: they started all right? Told that they started shooting already.
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: It's kind of a fucked up fact. And oh so
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: the budget was twenty seven to thirty million, and in
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: the box office it made one hundred and fifteen million.
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: But here's kind of a fucked up fact. And they
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: probably would have made more money. But the president of
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: the studio didn't like the movie, probably one for the
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: extra money it costs, but two because of how many
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: black people were in the movie. So when it came
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: to release the movie, the head of the studio said
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: they were only going to release in half of the
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: normal theaters and only in black areas. You thought white
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: people wouldn't want to see a black movie. And he
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: was worried black people would go to white neighborhoods to
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: see the movie and cause crime.
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: How fucking racist, like, and he was so in this
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: he like put that out there.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: Well, that's what people around him were saying. That's why
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: it wasn't released in many theaters. It's like, fucking hey,
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: that's just awful, you know. But the reason I like,
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: it's a really good classic buddy comedy. But this one
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: is a musical too, which is a lot of fun.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: I think. I think by Aretha Franklin is amazing in
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: this movie. She plays the guitarists wife, and so basically
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: they have to get the band back together, and a
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: lot of it is them going to the band like
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: different band because Jake was in prison for years the
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: band broke up. They need to get five thousand dollars
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: because the orphanage they grew up in is about to
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: close because right when he got out of prison, Ellwo's like,
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: we gotta go see the penguin. Man, I'm not gonna
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: go see the fucking penguin. And that's the nun that
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: raised him. So she's like, well, we're about to go under.
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: We need money, and Jake's like, oh, five grand I'll
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: get it by to you tomorrow and she's like not,
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: you're dirty money. So then they go, well, we need
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: got to figure something out. So they go to church
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: and that's where they meet. That's where they see James
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: Brown and he's doing a song and they fucking you know.
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: He's like, we got it the band. We got to
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: get the band back together, and that's like their mission
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: from God, you know. So a lot of them trying
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: to find the band members and bring them back together.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: But they get the band back together pretty quickly. So
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: because if you think about it, that seems like, Okay,
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: that's the whole movie. They're gonna play a gig, get
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: the money. No, they get the band back together pretty quickly,
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: but they can't find gigs. The very first gig they
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: end up playing at some like honky Tonk redneck bar,
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: and uh, they are supposed to make two hundred bucks,
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: but the band during three hundred dollars worth of beer,
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: so they runoff. And so now they're getting chased by
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: rednecks and they're getting chased by cops because right when
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: they get picked up by right when Jake gets picked
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: up from prison, Elwood run from the cops and now
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: they're about to go back to prison if they get costs.
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: So they're already getting chased by the cops. They're getting
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: chased by rednecks. They destroy a whole mall for this movie.
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: They're driving in a mall with like multiple cop cars
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: chasing them and it's one of the coolest like car
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: scenes ever, and all these like Peru One, Imports, Toys,
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: r us they're all like businesses and they're smashing it
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: through windows and it's crazy, right, But so then that
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: goes bad the the Redneck bar place, so then they're
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: onto the next gig. They're on the next gig and
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: they're waiting in traffic. They're like, what the fuck and
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: there's all these like Nazis protesting about something, right being Nazis,
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: and they're on this like bridge protesting and then Old goes, hey,
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: what's going on up there, and he goes, fucking Nazis, man,
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: they won their right to protest. And then Jake goes,
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: I fucking hate Nazis. So then they just gun it
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: and they like try to hit them all, but all
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: the Nazis jump off the bridge, so now they're getting
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: chased by Nazis too, oh right. So but all while
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: all this is happening, this random lady, this mystery woman,
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: keeps trying to kill them with like a bazooka and
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: a flamethrower and shit, and that's Carrie Fisher. So they're
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: getting chased by some random woman, Nazis, rednecks and cops
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: and it's just a really fun movie and the music
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: is great in it. It's just like I love buddy comedies,
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: and it's a really well written movie. This is the problem,
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: this is what we need to do to fix it.
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: But now there's gonna be a lot of hijinks in
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: the way between us fixing it. It goes by really quick.
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: It's a two hour movie, but with all the acting
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: or all the chases, the crashes, the singing and everything,
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: it just goes by super fast. And if you haven't
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: seen it, it's one movie where I think you can
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: watch it over and over again and enjoy it. It's
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: a great drinking movie because all the great music too.
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: So yeah, oh my god, Yeah, I don't. I don't think.
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: I think it's the same thing as with Beastie Boys.
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: It was like there, I'm sure my I liked it
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: a lot, but I just never really like, really appreciated it.
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: But I need to.
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: I I space completely that Carrie Fisher and I just
- 1:06:08Speaker 2: fucking love her.
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: Well, she was dating Dan Arkoyd at the top. That's
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: how they got her. And during the movie the John
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: Landers is like, carry you need to watch John Belushi
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: to make sure he doesn't do too much cocaine. Carrie Fisher,
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: that's horrible.
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: You know it's given. Uh, what kind of joke can
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: I make?
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: I feel like someone with a horse, that something of
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: the horse telling a horse not to tell another horse
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: not to you hate? I don't know.
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, listener, put it and insert your own joke.
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: We're tired, but it's funny. On your movie thing you
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: did some favorite quotes. I did too. One of my
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: favorite quotes is, we're on a mission from God. Of course,
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: We're one hundred and six miles to Chicago. We've got
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: a full take of gas, half a pack of cigarettes,
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: it's dark and we're in sunglasses. Get it.
- 1:06:56Speaker 2: How fuck it?
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: Let me see here, Illinois Nazis. I hate Illinois Nazis.
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: Let me see here. I've wrote a few other ones.
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: How much for the little girls, how much for the women?
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: I want to buy your women, sell me your children
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: so that one one of their bandmates is now like
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: a major d in the really fancy restaurant. So to
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: get him back, they go to the restaurant. He's like, guys,
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: I have a cushy gieg here. I'm not gonna leave.
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: And they go, all right, we'll came and get a table.
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: He's like no, and so they're just make they're just
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: being awful and trying to get him, you know, fired
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: and everything. Let me see here, it's an old Mount
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: Prospect police car. Ellwood says, and Jake goes, the day
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: I get out of prison, my own brother picks me
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: up in a police car. And then my favorite quote
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: from the movie is they're looking for the bandmates. So
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: they go to this house and you're talking to the
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: lady and they knock on the door and hey, you're
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: looking for this person. Later goes, are you the police?
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: Elle goes, no, ma'am, we're musicians. That means anything. But
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: it's a fun fucking movie. If you like Ray Charles,
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: Aretha Franklin, Cap Callaway, James Brown, any of that blues,
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: R and B stuff, you're gonna really love this movie.
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: So I don't have to like check this out and
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: do a deep dive in this.
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: It's one of my favorite drinking movies. Let me know
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: when we'll do a drinking the Blues Brother Drink Watching
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: the Night. It's such a fun movie. I love it.
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: We can almost like just get fucked up and watch
- 1:08:13Speaker 2: it and just record ourselves watching it. Yeah we could, yes,
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: so pretty much the listener would just be like, oh wow,
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: you know my god, I love it. I think you're
- 1:08:22Speaker 2: talking about buddy comedies. I feel like we should maybe
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: with chat GBT like come up, or maybe we could
- 1:08:28Speaker 2: just be creative souls and have our own buddy comedic adventure.
- 1:08:31Speaker 2: I feel like we would be really good in a movie.
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: Just say, comic comic, like a buddy comedy.
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: I have a few ideas already.
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: What's what's an idea you have?
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: Well, this is already trademarks, so don't steal anybody. A
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: heist buddy movie. But of Jesus.
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: Oh so we're Jesus.
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: Kind of Jesus is the main character. We're two of
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: the disciples, and the whole point is we're trying to
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: scam the system. So they go, Okay, after you die,
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: wink wink, you'll come back a live three days and
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: we have to make the whole thing, but make it
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: like a bank heist movie like comedy. Right, it's kind
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: a fun idea.
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: I like that because like they have so there's so
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: many buddy comedies, like going back to like a well,
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: would you consider some like it hot a buddy comedy?
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: Have you seen that with Marilyn Monroe and the two
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: guys are like going to cover as women. It's like
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: black and white?
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: Oh wow, isn't uh? I know what you're talking about?
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: Is it the guy from Ugly or Ugly Gray Man?
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: Grumpy Man? Oh?
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: Is it?
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: Oh?
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: I think so?
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: Is this Lemon?
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, John not John Lennon Jack Lemon Jack? Yeah, yeah,
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: that's a good. Yeah, buddy, I think we would be
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: iconic for a buddy Oh for sure.
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: No.
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: I love buddy comedies. They're some of my favorite movies.
- 1:09:38Speaker 2: Okay, Andy, I think we nailed it with our top
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: movie song and album. So I want to do a
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: quick game because we've been something I my bro Era
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: and I've been doing like a lot of smash for
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: past talk. This is going to be a game of
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: smashing past, but it's going to be notable bling stuff,
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: stuff from the eighties. Okay, So smash you like it,
- 1:10:00Speaker 2: pass you don't like it? Okay, So number one the
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: brat pack pass Pass Number two Madonna at the VM's
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: singing like a virgin.
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: Some of my very first like sexual memories is watching
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: VH one and seeing Madonna videos. So I'm gonna say, smash.
- 1:10:21Speaker 2: Okay, Transformers, uh passed.
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: I got into Beast for Beast Wars later, but I
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: never gotten Transformers.
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: Okay, number four, I think I know the answer to
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: this one. Tampon gate O.
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: Hell yeah, smash crazy so good.
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: So listener. Back in the eighties, Charles was married to
- 1:10:41Speaker 2: Princess Diana and he's now the king, and he was
- 1:10:45Speaker 2: having an affair with the love of his life Camilla
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: and who's now the queen, and then he got on
- 1:10:50Speaker 2: on hot mic or like his phone got bugged or whatever,
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: saying that he wanted to be Camilla's tampon.
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: Yeah, and then a long time ago, you and I
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: acted that out, but I can't remember the episode. I
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: don't want to go through like one hundred and twenty.
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: Yeah, right, listener, if you know, let us know. Okay,
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: number five, smash her past the Challenger explosion.
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say, uh past just because the tragedy.
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: But I've I went through this phase where I listened
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: to political speeches and I hate Reagan so fucking much.
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: But the way Reagan deflects that whole problem and also
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: finds a way to like kind of champion America at
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: the same time is beautiful. Just it's a really good speech.
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: But so I'm gonna say I can give her I'll
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: go either way.
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: And listener to your deep dive. I did mine with
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: how big Bird was connected to it?
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: Did you hear about that? Uh? I think Wait someone
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: with schools?
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, they were. They were originally gonna have big
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: Bird like a guy in a costume with big Bird
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: on it, but that didn't work because he would have
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: had to be in the costume and like, spaceships aren't
- 1:12:02Speaker 2: designed for large birds. Yeah, so that's why they chose
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: the school teacher. So how fucked up would that have
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: been if they did make it work and Big Bird
- 1:12:12Speaker 2: died in the child because they would have had to
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: retire that character because it was streamed into all the schools.
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: Yeah, all the schools are watching in real time. Wow.
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: So you said pass or kind of a pass smash?
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: Oh, I will say past. The explosion smashed the speech
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: even though I hate Reagan.
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: Right, Okay. Six Sylvester stallone marrying and then divorcing Brigitte
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: Nielsen and only getting six million dollar divorce settlement. She
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: only got, So that part, I feel like is the past.
- 1:12:41Speaker 1: I'm gonna say smash just because I feel like if
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: they didn't get married, there's less of a chance we
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: would have got.
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: Flavor and her boom exactly because that brought her to
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: a new level of fame of like that fless celebrity fame,
- 1:12:53Speaker 2: and then she got with flavor, Flavor, Flavor of Love
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: and then our icon New York. Okay, number seven, neon just.
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: The color in general.
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: Yeah, smash yeah, mullets, oh pat hard path.
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: I fucking and I don't even think it's funny when
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: people do like, oh I'm doing it, like what to
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: look like a fucking idiot? Like bunches rub shit on
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: your head like you look like an idiot? Then too,
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: The only people I would give a pass to are
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: the lesbians. Sure like you you all have done enough?
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: You guys can you guys can just do it if
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: you want. Okay, number nine, Fanny packs, smash her pass.
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: When I was younger, I would have passed, But now smash.
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: Smash it, Yeah, because I think it's good.
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: I mean, you can have band aids in there, tater tots,
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: anything you need to help you.
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I like that. You could have like one
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: of those like emergency like aluminum blankets, so when you
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: go to the strip club you can just cover up
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: with that. It's so cold in here. They probably do
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: that because of the titties.
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: Well, I think I just had a bad seat. Oh okay,
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: because he actually makes sense to.
- 1:13:56Speaker 2: Make him hard, Okay. Number ten John Lennon being murdered
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: Smasher pass.
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: I really like the Beatles. I really like John Lennon,
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: So I'm gonna have to say past.
- 1:14:07Speaker 2: So you but he had already broken up the Beatles. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:14:11Speaker 2: but honestly controversial point. I'm a big Wings fan. I know,
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: I know, I'm a fucking asshole for saying that, but
- 1:14:20Speaker 2: I'm like listening to some Wings and I'm like they're
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: pretty good. Like I know the Beatles are the bast
- 1:14:25Speaker 2: or whatever, but I'm like, give me some Paul McCartney
- 1:14:28Speaker 2: in the eighties.
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: I just would have liked to see where John Lennon
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: went because I like his solo album I thought was
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: a really great Uh, I don't know.
- 1:14:34Speaker 2: I really liked it would have been nice for John. Yeah,
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: I don't think that he should have died, but but
- 1:14:40Speaker 2: I wish that people like John Lennon. And because the
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: world is fucking crazy right now, I wish people like
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: John Lennon were here, Mister Rogers were here. I wish
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: those type of people were bett. I wish Betty White
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: was still alive. I wish those people were still here.
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: During this time, James Taylor heard the shot that killed
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: John Lennon. Jesus, because they lived in the same apartment.
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: He was like, same, Parma coom Did he go outside?
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: And I think so when all the cops came, I
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: think he went out to look. But yeah, crazy right.
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: Yeah, small world?
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: Who was it?
