- 0:30middle of a really hell ish string of
- 0:33shifts at work.
- 0:35You ever had a mass casualty events at
- 0:37your job?
- 0:41No.
- 0:42I had 1 yesterday.
- 0:44Do not recommend not fun at all. Despite
- 0:46what the name seems to imply.
- 0:49Is this something that made the news? Or
- 0:51is this just a couple of people around
- 0:53the area
- 0:54had an accident or was really hot and
- 0:57everyone came in. It was a mass shooting,
- 0:59but like, because there's so many fucking mass
- 1:01shootings, shit doesn't even get picked up by
- 1:02the news anymore, You know?
- 1:05It's just the a Saturday, and that's it.
- 1:07Honestly, yeah. So that sucks. Hate that.
- 1:12Overall, everything went very poorly and had a
- 1:15bad day. And you know what? You get
- 1:17paid the exact same hourly rate on a
- 1:20slow day as you do for working like,
- 1:22a shits on a gunshot victims. Is not
- 1:24fair. I feel like I should get surge
- 1:26pricing or something.
- 1:28Like, Uber, but for Medicine, you know that's
- 1:30gonna happen.
- 1:31Yeah. But, I mean, like, it's gonna go
- 1:32to some fat cat, not going into a
- 1:35work in Joe like,
- 1:37me, Joe, and that's not fair. You know?
- 1:39Isn't there like concierge,
- 1:42medical?
- 1:44Facilities where it's, like, really top of the
- 1:46line. They really
- 1:48massage your feet while they give you lip.
- 1:50Yeah. Yeah. There's there's those places. But, like,
- 1:54I don't think that you go there to,
- 1:55like, get a a bullet removed unless you're
- 1:58like, I don't know, John Wick or something
- 1:59like that. Like,
- 2:01I I think those movies all have, like,
- 2:04private doctors and stuff, specializing in, you know,
- 2:07wet works, But other than that, I think
- 2:09it's just places where you go to get
- 2:11you know, your oz refilled and to get
- 2:13your your fat ass massage.
- 2:16Yeah. I mean, but but there are
- 2:18levels of medical care where if you can
- 2:21afford it you go to the good hospital
- 2:23where they actually treat you and, you know,
- 2:26throw in a little something extra on your
- 2:27way. I. Sure. Sure. Sure. You're not going
- 2:30home without a nice buzz I can tell
- 2:31you that.
- 2:33You know, that's not for the, you know,
- 2:35Are our lady of Fatima hospitals
- 2:38or, you know, warm memorial policy a medical
- 2:42facility. It's... Yeah. The the fancy private ones?
- 2:45Yeah. So I don't even know where those
- 2:46are, You know?
- 2:48They don't tell regular people like us. Yeah.
- 2:50Yeah. Like, I can't apply for a job
- 2:52there because I don't know... They they don't
- 2:54want me to know what exists.
- 2:56It's... That they only offer jobs like that
- 2:58on places like, was it the ladder dot
- 3:00com where it's only jobs that are hundred
- 3:02thousand dollars or more?
- 3:04My god. I forgot that existed.
- 3:06And insane,
- 3:07what if we made
- 3:09indeed, but boo.
- 3:13Because that's what indeed needs instead of just
- 3:15the... Oh, you wanna be a writer. Here's
- 3:17an Ai job for you. Yeah.
- 3:20Hey. What I need you to do is
- 3:22upload your Csv
- 3:24here. And then also, we're gonna have you
- 3:27fill out this form that includes everything that
- 3:29you put in your Csv to
- 3:32to just duplicate and perhaps replicate the work
- 3:36you've already done.
- 3:37So fuck you.
- 3:39And when you hit submit, it doesn't work.
- 3:41Yeah. Exactly.
- 3:44The fuck me a time to have. Yeah.
- 3:47Anyway,
- 3:48this is not a show
- 3:50about complaining about my job.
- 3:52And what... Is it Is it... Is this
- 3:54is that what the show's about? You know,
- 3:56we'd probably see a big spike in listeners
- 3:58if it was just the pain that is
- 4:00my life with Joe and Jordan.
- 4:04Well, as it is, we've been doing the
- 4:06show for a long time with the
- 4:08very least pseudo premise that it's about heavy
- 4:10metal. So
- 4:12race them horns brother,
- 4:15crack a fucking cold beer. We're talking hardcore,
- 4:19heavy metal, No posters allow. Mode.
- 4:23Right.
- 4:24And whatever poses can comment fine. It's fine.
- 4:28What do you what what have you been
- 4:29out to, Jordan?
- 4:31Yesterday, I was running some errands, and I
- 4:35had some free time and I was in
- 4:36the area. So I went to a place
- 4:39that I didn't know existed at randomly showed
- 4:41up of all places in my Youtube feed
- 4:44where some guy went to,
- 4:47it's a used Dvd and Cd
- 4:50store. This is the best way to put
- 4:52it. It's not
- 4:53it's not actually a store. It's in in,
- 4:55like, an old mill
- 4:57where
- 4:59Like, there's just a lot of space in
- 5:00it and it's mostly an art gallery,
- 5:02but there's just... You rent out this big
- 5:05side of a warehouse and you could do
- 5:06it everyone with it.
- 5:08Just for the heck of it. I checked
- 5:09it out. And it looks like if... If
- 5:12there wasn't like, cars in the parking lot
- 5:14or, like, new signage,
- 5:16this would have easily been a murder factory.
- 5:19U. Like, this is where you go at
- 5:21the beginning of the Horror movie with like,
- 5:23the
- 5:23sexy teenagers sneaking around, and then, you know,
- 5:26they get their heads cut off by V
- 5:28lo. Sure. Sure. Those that sort of place.
- 5:30It looked looked like it hadn't been touched
- 5:32since the seventies.
- 5:34Like everything had that old brown seventies color
- 5:37to it with love. The old dark green
- 5:40paint going along, like the sides of the
- 5:42walls, but... You can you can really taste
- 5:44the Winchester in the wall, You know? Yeah.
- 5:46It's it smelled like the better times where,
- 5:49you know, nothing bad happened in the seventies.
- 5:51Yeah. But, like, the the space really was
- 5:55being actively used
- 5:56because, like every couple of feet, there was
- 5:58a new
- 6:00office or room with had someone's name on
- 6:02it and there was fresh artwork everywhere And
- 6:04so people are really using the space that
- 6:06I had no way idea existed. But And,
- 6:08like, the far end of this very long
- 6:11nightmare hallway.
- 6:12I halfway through, there was a random tech
- 6:153 arcade game. Buck and
- 6:18legitimate, like, 19 eighties pac man, they'd, like,
- 6:21both were working and we're both making the
- 6:23sounds. Honestly, if we're talking about
- 6:25goats
- 6:26arcade cabinets. It's tough to beat those 2.
- 6:29And there is a a little snack machine
- 6:32that had like raisins in it It was
- 6:34very much like out of a weird dream
- 6:36where things kind to make sense, but don't
- 6:38make sense.
- 6:39You know, you're you're in your childhood home,
- 6:41but it's not really your home sorta dream.
- 6:43Sure. Just a little bit like that, But
- 6:45I finally get to this place and
- 6:47it's 1 of those big warehouse sliding door
- 6:50to get in.
- 6:51And like, I thought it was just me
- 6:53me and just the 1 weird guy sitting
- 6:56in the culinary as a place, but there
- 6:57were actually people in their shopping,
- 7:00and it's just rows and walls filled with
- 7:03Dvds and Cds,
- 7:05and and I bought nothing. You bought nothing.
- 7:09There was nothing I want. End of the
- 7:11thing is it's like, at most
- 7:14stuff was 3 dollars. Everything else was either
- 7:16the 2 were 1 dollar. So it's like,
- 7:17well, why not While Here and was just...
- 7:20And not even for a dollar.
- 7:22Like, I figured if I went. There's probably
- 7:24gonna be some old eighties stuff, nineties metal,
- 7:27whatever. It really wasn't that much and Like,
- 7:30what I could find some of it I
- 7:32already owned and, like, the rest is, like,
- 7:34really wasn't worth spending 2 bucks for. Like,
- 7:37I didn't feel like it.
- 7:38And even the movie is there was a
- 7:40decent horror section, but it was really
- 7:43just about anything you could find anywhere else,
- 7:45Nothing obscure at a print or just... You
- 7:47know what for 2 dollars. I'll get this.
- 7:49So it's was just kinda,
- 7:51but I want to bring people to this
- 7:54place
- 7:56especially the people who are like, oh, we
- 7:57need physical media, physical media is important just
- 8:00to see the
- 8:02thousands upon thousands of plastic casings things that
- 8:05are just gathering dust and going sold. I
- 8:09want them to put their nose up to
- 8:10it and smell it and just inhale all
- 8:12the micro plastics that are not going anywhere.
- 8:15Yeah. Like see. This is also what you
- 8:17get when you have physical media. Yeah you
- 8:19have. But there copies of, the best of
- 8:21Rods Stewart or 20 copies of waiting starring
- 8:24Ryan Reynolds. What are you gonna do with
- 8:27a Cd Rom copy of leisure suit, Larry
- 8:297?
- 8:30You're gonna put on ebay and probably sell
- 8:32for too much money.
- 8:37No. I mean... Honestly, that sounds fun. Like,
- 8:39the space that
- 8:41the the lim space where things kinda make
- 8:43sense, but don't make sense. I don't know.
- 8:45That's that's tough to beat.
- 8:47There was
- 8:49there there there was this little series of,
- 8:52vintage stores in this
- 8:54absolutely tiny, nothing town of maybe 50 people,
- 8:58like, 45 minute drive through the woods
- 9:02when I was a kid growing up, like
- 9:03you'd go and there's a couple of houses
- 9:05in There really weren't even signs. You just
- 9:07knew to walk in,
- 9:09and you could buy, like, a fucking zoo
- 9:11suit. Or like a Seer soccer suit and
- 9:13these like insanely nice things in these little
- 9:15houses.
- 9:17And I describe it to people. It's like,
- 9:18that doesn't sound real long. Like, I was
- 9:19there. I promise you.
- 9:22Yeah. It's it's kind of hard to think
- 9:24of that stuff, especially if you're in the
- 9:26suburbs or a city and just everything's active
- 9:29all the time
- 9:31to just go a little bit off a
- 9:32beaten path and find something that doesn't have
- 9:35a website,
- 9:36maybe they have a Facebook page that hasn't
- 9:38been updated maybe for 4 years. Yeah. And,
- 9:42I mean, you you would pass it a
- 9:43hundred times. We were driving by never think
- 9:45about it, and you finally park and you...
- 9:48You go up to the door and you're
- 9:49like, it this place open. It's dark inside
- 9:51and sure enough it's open and deep inside
- 9:54there's people in it and it's just 1
- 9:56of those weird experiences were it's like I
- 9:58glad I went, and I'll probably never go
- 10:00back.
- 10:01The only other
- 10:03sensation I can somewhat compare that to is
- 10:05the first time I ever went to an
- 10:06ikea.
- 10:08I was stoned out of my fucking god.
- 10:11And you were lost for 3 days. And
- 10:13I was so lost, and I was there
- 10:15with people that, like, we're much more experience
- 10:17both with Ikea and with weed.
- 10:20And so they were kind of, like, messing
- 10:21with me, like, everyone knows. You know, that
- 10:24kinda move or whatever.
- 10:25But 1 of them, he taps me on
- 10:27the shoulder, and he pulls me over to,
- 10:291 of the wool sections in the kitchen,
- 10:32and he points to a drawer and he
- 10:34opens the drawer and it's filled with things
- 10:36inside for sale and I'm like...
- 10:40This is too much for my fragile synapses.
- 10:46This is called a p
- 10:48and you just
- 10:50Anyway,
- 10:52very... That sounds fun. Next time I'm in
- 10:55Rhode Island. I wanna check this thing out
- 10:56so I can buy, again, the best of
- 10:58Celine dion on. For 1 and a half
- 11:01dollars.
- 11:02It's, like I guess far as metal stuff
- 11:03that was there is, like, I found
- 11:052 monster magnet albums that I already had
- 11:08a few oz albums,
- 11:101 e town concrete album, Hell brother.
- 11:14More
- 11:15and not even a lot, but more like
- 11:17mid 2 thousands
- 11:19pop punk, like emo stuff, like reliant k.
- 11:24That sort of But yeah. Was... It wasn't
- 11:25even like, oh, for 2 dollars surely, I
- 11:28will get this
- 11:29mer faye album that's been here for years,
- 11:31but, like, not even that and
- 11:33don't know. It it kinda hit the point
- 11:35where was, like, even for gag, joke thinks
- 11:38to get someone out, it's a dollar. Why
- 11:39not? Just like,
- 11:40It's not where is it. Alright. I'm glad
- 11:42that I'm not gonna be getting,
- 11:44again, like,
- 11:46maybe Selena records in the may this December
- 11:48from you.
- 11:51We'll see.
- 11:54Jordan, a lot of things have happened this
- 11:55week.
- 11:57Put an asterisk on that. I don't really
- 11:58know if that's true or not.
- 12:00We need we need, like, a researcher to...
- 12:02Or like a producer on the show so
- 12:04we can have them verify things in real
- 12:05time for us.
- 12:07You're just call them up. Can you check
- 12:08if that's true and they just go on
- 12:10a Wikipedia and say no.
- 12:13Jamie pull it up for me. Is that
- 12:14it did things happen this week?
- 12:16Big thing that happened this week.
- 12:19The Olympics. Are you familiar with the 30
- 12:22third Olympia ad games?
- 12:24Is this the 30 third?
- 12:26I have no idea. I I was just
- 12:27pulling that out of my ass, man.
- 12:29Feel like there's probably more, but I don't
- 12:31know. I haven't really hang on. Jamie, this
- 12:33is what we need to producer for.
- 12:36How many
- 12:38olympics
- 12:39have there been?
- 12:41And then are we going to include winter
- 12:42Olympics too?
- 12:44Okay.
- 12:45There have been 33 modern Olympic games,
- 12:49and I don't know if that includes this
- 12:52the winter ones because I don't
- 12:55really want to do additional research to be
- 12:58honest.
- 12:59So, yeah. Nailed it.
- 13:03Where is I going with this? There was
- 13:04they've been 33 Olympic jordan.
- 13:07How about what do you think about that?
- 13:08Let's talk about all of them.
- 13:11The only 1 that I really, like, really
- 13:14remember sitting down and focusing on on was
- 13:17the 96
- 13:18games in Atlanta because I was 8. And
- 13:21I didn't have anything else to do at
- 13:23the time other than watch Tv.
- 13:25Yeah. When you're little, I think it's more
- 13:28interesting to you. Sure. At least it used
- 13:30to be. It's like, competition in America. Yeah.
- 13:33This is gonna be fun And
- 13:35coupled with that, at least for Ra age
- 13:37range,
- 13:38a lot of
- 13:40commercials were Olympic year, like Mcdonald's would always
- 13:43have the, like, dubai, the Big Mac meal
- 13:46and you get these pull off games and
- 13:49you can go to Na or whatever.
- 13:52Yeah.
- 13:55I think I I actually, know you mentioned
- 13:56I do recall watching a bit of the
- 13:58Noggin games in 98 as well.
- 14:00And, do you remember the Dan and Dave
- 14:03commercials they used to have? No.
- 14:06It was ads was for Dan O'brien and
- 14:09Dave Johnson, I believe, and they were athletes.
- 14:111 was in red, 1 was in blue
- 14:13and like both competing for the Olympics. And
- 14:16these went on for months and months. And
- 14:18I think eventually only 1 of them actually
- 14:20made it. To the. I think it was
- 14:22a re box commercial.
- 14:25I don't remember it, but
- 14:27I remember, like, fuck, it was it Michael
- 14:29Johnson
- 14:31like, broke every record that year, and there
- 14:34was a balm, and then
- 14:3625 years later,
- 14:38Lan would made a movie about it.
- 14:41Yeah. The Dan Dave commercials were from the
- 14:43Barcelona in 19 92 of summer Olympics.
- 14:46It was a little bit before I was
- 14:47really processing memories, I think.
- 14:52Anyway, I... As I mentioned, I've been working
- 14:55like a shit on a shift, so I've
- 14:56missed most of, but I went to the
- 14:57bar last night,
- 14:59and sat trans in front of the Tv
- 15:01for probably a good 2 and a half
- 15:03hours,
- 15:04really not blinking much, watching
- 15:07coverage of
- 15:08Things I never really knew existed, like synchronized
- 15:11diving
- 15:12and being really,
- 15:14really really invested in
- 15:16in
- 15:17oddly proud of America in a way that
- 15:20I can't describe. I ever feeling.
- 15:24You took off your I hate America hat
- 15:26put on your revolutionary area, tri head. And
- 15:29Exactly.
- 15:30Cheering and
- 15:32getting really upset when we come in second
- 15:34to China,
- 15:35having to be restrained by your friends. I
- 15:38my I my wife is getting so I
- 15:40annoyed to kept telling her This is why
- 15:42they're overtake us.
- 15:45Just like, fuck. Fuck, How could you do
- 15:47this to us? We need you.
- 15:50Constantly yelling fuck Australia. You're not a real
- 15:53country. Nobody cares about you.
- 15:55Anyway,
- 15:57I I don't know that
- 15:59this is a healthy thing, like, this it
- 16:01sudden the surge of nationalism that's injected throughout
- 16:04the world, but I can tell you I
- 16:05was having a great time watching Tv, which
- 16:08is more important. Right?
- 16:09Yeah. I mean, that's why we're really here
- 16:11is to just veggie out in front of
- 16:12the television for 8 hours.
- 16:14So Mean, have you been watching any coverage
- 16:16lately?
- 16:19Unintentional It's more like, when I turn the
- 16:20Tv on to, like, then put streaming on.
- 16:23It just happens to have the Olympics. And
- 16:26even I got caught up, it was a
- 16:27women's relay swimming.
- 16:29On whatever who cares. Whoa go. Go. Go.
- 16:32Yeah. We got silver.
- 16:34Finally, life is worth living again. I was
- 16:37watching the same event last night.
- 16:39And then I turned it off when I
- 16:40got disgusted with how we were losing to
- 16:43Cuba,
- 16:43on the men's volleyball.
- 16:46Apps. Absolute horse shit.
- 16:48Anyway,
- 16:49all of this stuff, it's a lot of
- 16:51fun.
- 16:53Thought that I was, you know, too jade
- 16:56for all of it. But apparently I'm not
- 16:57I'm easily entertained, I guess,
- 16:59love getting caught in the Hoop law,
- 17:03wrapping myself an American flag and all of
- 17:04that. It's a lot of fun.
- 17:06How does that relate in any way to
- 17:08what we do on this show, Jordan. Segue.
- 17:12Did you hear that there was a heavy
- 17:13metal thing that happened during the opening events
- 17:16at the Olympics? I did. And, of course,
- 17:18because I was knee deep guts.
- 17:21I didn't really get to check it out
- 17:23until, like, well, this morning.
- 17:26Well, you haven't mitch missed much because people
- 17:28been talking about it on the Internet for
- 17:31from the moment it happened until probably today.
- 17:34So what what was it?
- 17:37French progressive medal Go jira,
- 17:40perform that today's Friday, July 26,
- 17:42Paris 20 24 Olympics opening ceremony, making them
- 17:45the first metal band to ever play at
- 17:47the Olympic games.
- 17:49So I finally got a chance to watch
- 17:50the video this morning and I gotta say,
- 17:52I am a hate through through. Top to
- 17:54bottom love hating.
- 17:56This was sick. This is super sick.
- 18:00Like I saw this, and I immediately said
- 18:02to myself. Jordan be nice. Be nice. Let
- 18:05people have their fun, be nice.
- 18:07You didn't you didn't get into it. Alright
- 18:09Here's the thing. I saw people talking about
- 18:12it before the actual event.
- 18:14And the way people were talking about. It
- 18:16was like,
- 18:17life changing event.
- 18:20Metal is back. This is Is gonna be
- 18:23huge now.
- 18:25And then I saw it and I'm like,
- 18:26this is fun. This is cool. It's the
- 18:27neat moment, and it was over in 3
- 18:29minutes. Yeah. Like, like, I had assumed they
- 18:31played for, like, an hour ripping set, like,
- 18:34doing all this stuff. I was like, oh,
- 18:35no. This is a cool little thing amongst
- 18:37all of the other opening stuff in Saturday.
- 18:40So it's was like, Okay. In the context,
- 18:42it's not the way people were describing, but
- 18:45it is still cool, and I kinda need
- 18:47people to treat that out a little bit
- 18:49with some of the
- 18:50wild
- 18:51proclamation of how metal is gonna change now.
- 18:54I guess... I guess because I've missed all
- 18:56of that. Yeah. Like, I missed the hoop
- 18:58law about it. I watched it and I
- 19:00was like, oh, that's super bad ass. But,
- 19:02again,
- 19:03I am unwilling to go any further than
- 19:06saying This was a very bad thing, and
- 19:08that... It's not gonna have any other fax.
- 19:10Sorry. Yeah. It's a it's a super cool
- 19:11moment people should watch it? It is very
- 19:14strange.
- 19:15I did you watch the whole thing. I
- 19:17did the 3 minutes with the I did
- 19:19they did Marie antoinette doing some weird talk
- 19:22thing. So that was that was... It opened
- 19:24up with that. And again, that so bizarre
- 19:27and g task that I can't help but
- 19:29be very impressed with it. And, of course,
- 19:32like, later on in the set towards the
- 19:34finale, like launching these blood red streamers into
- 19:36the sky, like, sick. Love that.
- 19:39It's... It's... When I noticed that they did
- 19:41that and then see all the streamers fall
- 19:43right into the river.
- 19:45I did think about that. Like, are these
- 19:46guys like the environmental lisbon. Yeah. That's what
- 19:49I was thinking. It's like, they have all
- 19:50these streamers going into the river and just
- 19:52burning a hole in the ozone with all
- 19:54the power that was going on, but, you
- 19:56know, trying to trying to not overthink it.
- 19:59Just trying to let them have fun. It's
- 20:01a big moment. You know, medal is at
- 20:03least in the United States. Medal isn't included
- 20:06on regular Tv, and the Nbc comment,
- 20:10like, 1 was trying to get into it
- 20:11and nothing 1 was just, like, what is
- 20:12happening. I don't like this. So I heard
- 20:14it's holding my eos. So what I saw
- 20:17was the Spanish coverage.
- 20:19So I I was following along like
- 20:22la,
- 20:24Brother.
- 20:25I was like, fuck yeah dude.
- 20:27See on the American 1. I don't even
- 20:29think they said Go jira, maybe they said
- 20:31at once. It was just wow. Things are
- 20:33happening. This is heavy metal. I don't I
- 20:36don't like this, and then there's a ship
- 20:38going by with an actual opera singer.
- 20:41So, apparently, they were playing a
- 20:44version of a French resistant song on the
- 20:46side of the Concierge,
- 20:49which was a
- 20:51castle turned prison
- 20:54meant for,
- 20:55holding all them Rick richie back in the
- 20:57day.
- 20:58Which is,
- 20:59again, that's sick is fuck.
- 21:02Morbid production paid bloody tribute to a historically
- 21:05famous dead lady.
- 21:07Thanks L mouth.
- 21:10Just kicking her when she's down in the
- 21:12years.
- 21:14Marie antoinette.
- 21:15Both are described the performance. A collaboration with
- 21:17Opera Singer, Marina V,
- 21:20is a, quote, a full musical metal Opera
- 21:23Cameron
- 21:24Macintosh. I don't remember that is mash up
- 21:26tribute to the gui,
- 21:28featuring d capita faces,
- 21:30d capita faces painted
- 21:32Clown white singing in the French revolutionary song,
- 21:34k Ira. Sorry. I don't speak French. During
- 21:38the L portion of the ceremony.
- 21:42Version of the song was reworked looks alongside
- 21:43French composer there and producer Victor Le
- 21:47according to the New York Times.
- 21:50I see.
- 21:52That all of that made it somehow less
- 21:54clear for me.
- 21:57Oh, 1 thing I did notice that I
- 21:58like this is because they're playing on
- 22:01essentially, Window of sales on, on the side
- 22:03of this castle,
- 22:05and they all had
- 22:07very strong harness attached to them. Okay. I
- 22:09was gonna say... I didn't notice the harness,
- 22:12but that makes me feel more comfortable. I
- 22:13think I would be pissing and shitting my
- 22:15pants.
- 22:16You just get way into an a pre
- 22:18and just whoops. Yeah. I don't do well
- 22:21with the heights.
- 22:23Like even small heights. It's getting on my
- 22:24roof makes me feel like I'm gonna sick
- 22:26and vomit everywhere. So,
- 22:29very impressive that they were crab cor
- 22:31on top on top of this castle. They
- 22:33were wisely safe
- 22:35safely harness in. So, you know, they don't
- 22:38have a James and get caught in some
- 22:40p and go falling off on live Tv.
- 22:45Anyway, I...
- 22:47I think have we we talked about we
- 22:49did an episode on this show forever ago
- 22:52I believe of, like, the very earliest recordings
- 22:54of bands that have been around forever. Right?
- 22:56Mh.
- 22:57I believe we talked about Go
- 22:59and when they were, like, 14 or 15
- 23:01years old,
- 23:03and the shit that they put out back
- 23:05then is absolutely
- 23:07insane, like, the the stuff that their drummer
- 23:09was able to play as a child.
- 23:12Absolutely makes me sick with Envy.
- 23:14I don't much care for, you know, the
- 23:16direction that they went later on in their
- 23:17career or whatever who cares.
- 23:19I'm... I think it's great that these guys
- 23:21have had such a little career and they
- 23:23kinda able have, like, I don't I feel
- 23:25like this is a good capstone for for
- 23:27all of that shit. I don't know. What
- 23:28do you think? And you played your music
- 23:31in front of the biggest audience that we'll
- 23:33ever see you. Yeah. It's it's hard to
- 23:36top that, and you represented your country if
- 23:39that thing you care about. That's a big
- 23:41deal too. You know, honor just to be
- 23:43asked, but to do this. And,
- 23:46you know, while I think some people were
- 23:48a little quick be like, oh, this is
- 23:49gonna be huge for them. You know, I'm
- 23:51sure they're gonna get an increase in listens
- 23:53at least on. The streaming stuff, whether that
- 23:55turns into lifelong fans. We'll see
- 23:58whether that, you know, 10:15
- 24:00years from now, we'll have a new crappy
- 24:02musician saying, I saw a Go jira,
- 24:04live on Tv and now I play guitar,
- 24:07Maybe that'll happen. I don't know how I
- 24:09kinda of feel like the way news and
- 24:11events happen now will forget about it in
- 24:14about 2 weeks.
- 24:15I mean, but, again, we we talked about
- 24:17that last week. Yeah. So somebody somebody shot
- 24:19the president nobody fucking cares. That's awesome.
- 24:22We're a president.
- 24:24Former president, who goes a shit. Yeah. Nobody
- 24:26cares. I love it. This is it's it's
- 24:28fun. It's like living every day with amnesia,
- 24:31and we get to wipe the slate clean
- 24:32and start a new.
- 24:34Yeah. It's
- 24:35we move on from things very quickly, and
- 24:37I'm sure this will show up at nausea
- 24:40for years to come on every.
- 24:41At moments of all
- 24:43Right. On every loud wire, top 20 most
- 24:46metal moments article, this will show up at
- 24:48at number 12 or something like that. But
- 24:51good for the band. Cool for metal.
- 24:53We will see if anything comes out of
- 24:56it, but it's worth going out of your
- 24:57way to watch. It just for, like, the
- 24:59sheer insanity of it all. So IIII
- 25:04think the only opening ceremony. I I recall
- 25:07ever from any Olympics is the
- 25:101 from Beijing and, like, what, 2008 I
- 25:13guess.
- 25:14Do you do you remember the opening ceremonies
- 25:16for the Beijing Olympics?
- 25:18I They all blend together if I've ever
- 25:21seen any of. It was the most impressive
- 25:23thing I've ever seen everybody I have tire
- 25:24fucking wife man. Like thousands of Chinese people
- 25:28absolutely moving in
- 25:29absurd clockwork sync.
- 25:32I've I've never seen anything like it. I
- 25:34don't know have developers say anything like again.
- 25:35And all I could thing is, like, Goddamn.
- 25:37Those Chinese are gonna eat our lunch.
- 25:41And then those people were shipped off to
- 25:43some camp and never seen again. Tough to
- 25:45say. It's tough to say. I think moved
- 25:47slightly out of step and their entire lineage
- 25:50was destroyed.
- 25:51So I
- 25:52Again, that's the only 1II ever watched the
- 25:54only thing I remember, But my wife was
- 25:56telling me last night. Yeah. She was watching
- 25:57the opening ceremony, and she was, like,
- 26:00The best way I can describe it is
- 26:02this frenchman finds,
- 26:04like, a a street urchin child
- 26:07the street urchin child is helping him get
- 26:09the opening flame
- 26:11to the Olympics, like they're going through the
- 26:13cat homes across, like, an underground river with
- 26:16a ferry that's like Very much like the
- 26:19ferry of the dead.
- 26:21Was the urchin child, the snoop dogg.
- 26:27Oh my god. So last night, they're... We're
- 26:29watching
- 26:30the coverage and, like, they're talking to Snoop
- 26:32dogg just like,
- 26:33He's the coolest 75 year old round. Like,
- 26:35you know he's
- 26:37barely 50. Right?
- 26:40Blew her mind. She had no idea that
- 26:42this hu of a man had smoked himself
- 26:4530 years in the future.
- 26:47Yes. He came to prominence in the nineties.
- 26:52He has just
- 26:53bagged so much marijuana that he is now
- 26:56a, a skeleton man. He is the S
- 26:58man, but for Hip hop. It's awesome. I
- 27:01love that that
- 27:03weed is... Weed is good for you folks
- 27:05completely paralyzed by this 1.
- 27:10Anyway,
- 27:11Apparently, it included among this insane winding,
- 27:16opening credits
- 27:17was a brief period
- 27:20that showed
- 27:22a a group of drag queens doing
- 27:26recreation of the last supper
- 27:28And then quickly moving on since some other
- 27:30crazy visual because, you know, this is all
- 27:33it is. It's a past things.
- 27:36But apparently, that small bit was enough to
- 27:38enrich the loudest and dumbest people in our
- 27:41society,
- 27:43they called to each other. They have their
- 27:45their special signals that only files can hear
- 27:48and started
- 27:49screaming about it,
- 27:51all at once, including
- 27:54Elon Musk, the super genius,
- 27:56and
- 27:571
- 27:58John Cooper of
- 28:00skillet.
- 28:01You see this?
- 28:03Scale it fresh off of playing Cap at
- 28:05first a few weeks ago. Yeah. Yeah.
- 28:11Let's see.
- 28:13John Cooper,
- 28:14Front men and basis for the grammy nominated
- 28:16Christian rock band skillet. As blasted,
- 28:19the 20 24 Paris Olympics opening ceremony for
- 28:22including prove of drag queens and dancers,
- 28:25performing a parent, quote, parody of the last
- 28:28supper.
- 28:30Among the drag queens included in this performance,
- 28:32it was ru all Drag race star, Nikki
- 28:34Doll,
- 28:35who str the pas
- 28:37d
- 28:38rigs
- 28:39alongside Drag race France favorites Palo and shape.
- 28:43Plus dozens of other models and performers in
- 28:45a addition of We big shoes the last
- 28:47supper,
- 28:49which the Olympics called, quote,
- 28:51interpretation of the Greek God Dionysus
- 28:54makes us aware of the absurdity of violence
- 28:57between human beings.
- 28:59The drag queens appeared on screen positioned similarly
- 29:02how Jesus and his 12 apostles are depicted
- 29:04in Da davinci, mural painting.
- 29:07Cooper
- 29:09said that,
- 29:10he got on Instagram to share that the
- 29:132 and a half minute video
- 29:15to Sherry 2 and a half minute video
- 29:16and we you ripped the Olympic games fork
- 29:18quote, mocking Christianity
- 29:20and accused the, quote, global elites
- 29:23of being, quote, per, who are, quote, coming
- 29:25after your kids.
- 29:28I wonder who he means by the global
- 29:30elite
- 29:31I I wish I could get a closer
- 29:33idea because these guys are all convinced that
- 29:36there is some kind of global elite Cabal.
- 29:39Including folks like Elon Musk. Like, if you're
- 29:42not a part of the global... Who the
- 29:44fuck is?
- 29:46I don't know, man.
- 29:48It they mean jews, Jail. Oh, okay. Well,
- 29:51they should just say it.
- 29:52Don't dance around it. Come on, man. Tell
- 29:54me.
- 29:57Cooper has quoted here saying as translated by
- 29:59bla mouth. Thank you, Bla mouth.
- 30:02Hey, guys. What's up? I'm about to go
- 30:03on stage right now, but my phone's blowing
- 30:05up from all these people sending me videos
- 30:07of the opening ceremony for the Olympics of
- 30:10insane crazy stuff because we don't live in
- 30:12a normal world anymore. Okay?
- 30:14Okay.
- 30:15Okay. Alright.
- 30:17For all the people that are always saying
- 30:18it's so polarized. We gotta get along. Everybody
- 30:21stop yelling each other. We gotta agree. We
- 30:23all want the same things. Do we though?
- 30:25Do we?
- 30:26Let me explain this to you. He continued.
- 30:29This is what tolerance looks like in the
- 30:30new world. According to all these global elites
- 30:33who won't exchange, all of Western
- 30:35civilization and remake the world in their image.
- 30:37This is the way tolerance works for them.
- 30:39You sit down to walks the Olympics with
- 30:41your kids, They're gonna start the show with
- 30:43drag queens who come out and mock Christianity.
- 30:46They're gonna mock the number 1 largest faith
- 30:48in the world. They're gonna mock it on
- 30:50Tv in front of the whole world. Can
- 30:52we get give we get a fact shack
- 30:54on the number 1 largest faith in the
- 30:55world. Is that true? Yes.
- 30:58Really,
- 30:59Christianity is the biggest religion in the world.
- 31:01I mean, that's including
- 31:02all the subs sections and catholicism, but yes.
- 31:08The way would you think it was gonna
- 31:10be. I thought it was gonna be like,
- 31:11I don't know. Something over in, like India.
- 31:13I don't know. There's a lot of them.
- 31:16There's a lot of Chinese people. They don't,
- 31:18you know, they got other. A lot of
- 31:19them are Christian. Boo, how did we let
- 31:21that happen? Eu gel.
- 31:24The way it's tolerance works is this. If
- 31:26you're sitting with your kids and you go,
- 31:28what the heck is going on. I don't
- 31:29want my kids watch and drag wings. That's
- 31:31on my values.
- 31:32If that's what you say, well, then you're
- 31:34a bad person. You need to change your
- 31:36old school. You're the person causing all the
- 31:39hate in the world and they gotta shut
- 31:40you up. At the same time, the way
- 31:42tolerance works on the new world is okay
- 31:44for the drag queen to mock Christianity.
- 31:47Christianity is okay to mock. Alright? They can
- 31:49do it whatever they want to, but you
- 31:50can't.
- 31:51You see this isn't normal. This is not
- 31:54normal. This is not the world that I
- 31:56wanna live in. I don't think it's the
- 31:58world that most people in Western civilization wanna
- 32:00live in. They are in fact, coming after
- 32:03your kids because the global elites are per.
- 32:06They are coming after your kids. The question
- 32:08is, what are you gonna do about it?
- 32:10What are you gonna stop watching? Are you
- 32:12gonna stop watching? Say, no. We're not doing
- 32:14that?
- 32:15What in the world does sexuality have to
- 32:18do with the olympic games?
- 32:20Well, I mean, for starters
- 32:22Look the history of G Roman Wrestling at
- 32:24the Olympics, I think you ought too. Look
- 32:26at how all the Olympic athletes
- 32:28fuck like crazy and their Olympic villages and
- 32:31they tried to stop them by making uncomfortable
- 32:34beds. The Olympics is if nothing else, a
- 32:37celebration of the absolute vu of humans.
- 32:41It's all about being buff and swollen and
- 32:43hot as hell and fucking and sucking.
- 32:47Believe that was in the original manifesto of
- 32:48the the Olympics. That's what all the rings
- 32:50mean. Yeah. It's it's a bunch of people
- 32:5369
- 32:54across each other.
- 32:57Can we just leave your sexuality out of
- 33:00the opening for the Olympics? Something we all
- 33:02try to do together around the world and
- 33:03they make it a celebration of sexuality. That
- 33:06should tell you something?
- 33:07So I reject a new world. I reject
- 33:09their false tolerance. It's not real tolerance anyway.
- 33:13I reject it, and I say this.
- 33:15God will not be mocked. Go for it.
- 33:18Go for it. God will not be mocked.
- 33:20You will reap what you so. I don't
- 33:22know about you, but I am not bow
- 33:24down to this new regime.
- 33:27I mean, I know he says God will
- 33:29not be mocked, but I... All the evidence
- 33:31I've seen says the contrary. I think it's
- 33:33fine. I think it's up absolutely fun.
- 33:36I think we stopped having a vengeful angry
- 33:38guy a couple of thousand years ago, so
- 33:39I'm sure he's pretty okay with it. They
- 33:42wrote a fucking book about it. You should
- 33:44read it.
- 33:46Anyway,
- 33:48this guy is...
- 33:50III know that it's, like
- 33:53it's not like, Pc to say that someone
- 33:55is a deeply repressed homosexual when they get
- 33:57all up in this stuff, but that's clearly
- 33:59what's going on here. Right?
- 34:01It's the stick that a lot of these
- 34:03fake, particularly American
- 34:06Christian white winger do where they get all
- 34:08up in arms with something that
- 34:10maybe references Christianity,
- 34:14oftentimes dozen. They just choose to
- 34:16use
- 34:18that is an excuse to force their will
- 34:21among people. It's just... Every time III see
- 34:24something like this. I just think of line
- 34:26from the Simpsons.
- 34:27Stupid babies need the most attention. That is
- 34:30true. And that's what this is. This is...
- 34:32They're getting on their high horse. Just trying
- 34:35to make something that isn't about them about
- 34:38them, so they can be creative, and he
- 34:40even mentions, like, I am part of the
- 34:42largest religion in the world. It's like you
- 34:44are and you are not the oppressed. Yeah.
- 34:47If if something is making fun of your
- 34:50religion, the
- 34:52you're okay.
- 34:54Like at it. I am currently reading this,
- 34:57and I have an ad, even though I
- 34:59have every ad blocker in existence,
- 35:03that is telling me that Putin is killing
- 35:07Russian Christians is
- 35:09is not true.
- 35:11I mean, I'm sure some of them are.
- 35:12I mean, like, sure, but I don't think
- 35:14that that's the thing like, you're christian, so
- 35:17we have to kill you because they're, like,
- 35:19I there there there there there's this
- 35:21desire
- 35:22this all consuming horny impulse to be oppressed
- 35:27that these guys have, and it's just not
- 35:29happening. Ain't nobody do the press. We should.
- 35:32We should absolutely impress these people, but like,
- 35:34it's not happening.
- 35:36Yeah. It's the the same with the ultra
- 35:38rich. We're being oppressed, the world is changing.
- 35:42I don't like it. It's like, you're fine.
- 35:45I don't know, man.
- 35:46This guy this guy stinks to be honest
- 35:49with you.
- 35:50And the whole thing is is music stinks,
- 35:52his haircuts stinks. His haircut is truly fucking
- 35:55atrocious man. Like, how are you gonna put
- 35:58on a pom door when you're clearly baldi?
- 36:00It's just it's all fucked up.
- 36:03III think middle age t doll. Exactly. I
- 36:06think the thing is, like,
- 36:08again, the desperate to
- 36:11be oppressed thing. Like,
- 36:13is,
- 36:14like, the last supper
- 36:17an actual really religious thing or was it
- 36:19just, like a painting that 1 guy did
- 36:20and, like, 1600.
- 36:23Because I don't think that there's anything
- 36:25that actually describes, like, the actual last supper
- 36:29in the bible. Is there?
- 36:32It's
- 36:33the new testament ain't my testament, so I
- 36:35don't know anything about it.
- 36:37I don't think that like, it's been a...
- 36:40It's been a good 25 years since I
- 36:42did any kind of bible study think God.
- 36:45But I don't recall and, anything in there
- 36:48about. And yay, all the disciples set on
- 36:511 side of the table with Jesus in
- 36:53the middle
- 36:54And Jesus like, let's get this bread fam.
- 36:57A scene that has been recreated in pop
- 37:00culture
- 37:01hundreds of times, thousands of times. Yeah. Like,
- 37:04this is the kind of thing that you
- 37:06go to your local antique mall and you
- 37:07can get, like, I don't know, fucking Tony
- 37:10Sop in the middle with, like,
- 37:12alpha Mach in Scarf on 1 side, you
- 37:15know, Gary Cooper on the other side. Like,
- 37:17it's, you know, it's tacky. It's tacky. Do
- 37:20better.
- 37:21I mean, they have...
- 37:23I I think, like bible camps and
- 37:26Christian Fairs, you could put your head in
- 37:29the little cutout out. Although supper and get
- 37:31your picture taken with Jesus. Why not.
- 37:34So I don't know.
- 37:36These people, they're they're desperate to be oppressed
- 37:38and I say, let's let's do it. Let's
- 37:40band together and let's actually suppress these guys.
- 37:43I think it'll it'd be... They they will
- 37:44finally get they what get what they want,
- 37:46and
- 37:48I'll be... I'll be happy to do it.
- 37:49You know?
- 37:50I think it's this desire
- 37:52for people who are not oppressed to be
- 37:54oppressed so that they can say look at
- 37:56me
- 37:56look how hard it is for me, even
- 37:58though they're fine. Yeah. And, like, the desire
- 38:02for
- 38:03validation or
- 38:04even
- 38:05trying to compare people with, like, how hard
- 38:07it was for them to grow up. Like,
- 38:09oh, well, yeah. I was poor. Oh, well,
- 38:11you were poor. I was even poor it's
- 38:13like
- 38:14Y'all all live in the suburbs. You were
- 38:15fine. It it it all comes down to,
- 38:18and this is the primary thing.
- 38:20I need somebody to look at me and
- 38:22acknowledge me. And that's it.
- 38:25And all you need is love, but I'm
- 38:27not gonna give it to you instead I
- 38:29will give you vision and hate.
- 38:34Anyway, then, What what what do you think
- 38:35about all this?
- 38:38Olympics,
- 38:40that's neat. I'm glad it happened. Cool thing.
- 38:43I don't think it'll make any sort of
- 38:45difference in their career just med in general,
- 38:47so maybe take it down and notch and
- 38:49making
- 38:50proclamation online. I saw someone say, and it
- 38:52was a a popular tweet. It was like,
- 38:54first, France has a left government now, and
- 38:57now we have extreme metal, and then people
- 38:59in their comments were I'd look. It's not
- 39:01a left government, and it's not extreme metal
- 39:03all. Constant replies to that. Yep.
- 39:06But you know, neat thing that happened and
- 39:09Christians are gonna be weird about it. And
- 39:12a lot of it is just to gain
- 39:14attention for themselves. And here the thing I
- 39:16am agreed about this week and then on
- 39:18to the next week where
- 39:20they made the Eminem and M lady less
- 39:22sexy.
- 39:23It's true though. She is nowhere nearly as
- 39:26as she wants was, how am I gonna
- 39:29jerk off to the M and M lady
- 39:30now? Well, it'll be tough, but I will
- 39:33try. She'll feeds M and M lady.
- 39:37So,
- 39:39Jira having a real moment. This is gonna,
- 39:41again, change the game for everybody.
- 39:44Which will be great news to
- 39:46Jack Gibson of exodus, I believe. Segue.
- 39:50We fucking nailed it.
- 39:53500 episodes and we are killing it on
- 39:55this podcast link. We are finally tuned in
- 39:57machine.
- 39:59What what is the deal with exodus basis
- 40:01Jack Gibson.
- 40:03This is probably the first and last time
- 40:04Robert say this, but we should listen to
- 40:06this interview with the guy from Exodus.
- 40:10I don't want to
- 40:13pump this up too much, but this is
- 40:14the real shit I've ever heard in my
- 40:16life.
- 40:17It... It's good for us to have the
- 40:20validation of a actual
- 40:22musician, saying a lot of things we've we've
- 40:23been saying for a long time, and he
- 40:25gave an interview with Danielle Blu,
- 40:29thankfully transcribed by Black or mouth. We love
- 40:31you, we're the only one's keeping you alive,
- 40:34where he he was asked if, like,
- 40:37things were a little bit jade for him
- 40:39now at this point in his career, and
- 40:41he goes very much at length talking about
- 40:44where things are at app, especially for older
- 40:46musicians and older bands, and
- 40:48it hits on a lot of points we've
- 40:49been talking about. So he says,
- 40:52I don't know what to tell young music
- 40:53today because I am jade, And it isn't
- 40:56that I'm just jade is that there's no
- 40:58music business anymore. That's so true.
- 41:03When I was young, there was a path,
- 41:05there were steps to take.
- 41:07You got your band together, you put your
- 41:09music together you started looking for shows, and
- 41:12if you could drop people to your shows,
- 41:14then the next step was that label people
- 41:16would be interested.
- 41:18Then you had to get your promotional pack
- 41:20together
- 41:21to give to the labels that were interested.
- 41:23And then you tried to get signed, and
- 41:25then you tried to make records and sell
- 41:27records. And those steps don't exist at all
- 41:29anymore.
- 41:30Now the step is make a band or
- 41:32not even make a band. Let's just go
- 41:34viral.
- 41:35I don't know I don't know to do
- 41:37that. Don't ask me how to fucking do
- 41:39that.
- 41:40I'm in my fifties. I don't know how
- 41:42to do that shit.
- 41:44It's totally mystery to me. Don't know how
- 41:46things get popular now other than just total
- 41:49lock, so I don't know.
- 41:51God. He is he is so real.
- 41:54It's like I'm saying these things. It's... You
- 41:56know what? Well, reading this it made me
- 41:58think of
- 41:59just kinda of the ongoing joke about boomers.
- 42:01Oh, just show up with your resume and
- 42:04ask if they're hiring. Yeah. And here he
- 42:06is to tell you no, Man, that's not
- 42:08gonna happen.
- 42:10But it it is kind of a good
- 42:11way to, like, bridge that gap, I guess
- 42:14when thinking about music is that was the
- 42:15way you used to do.
- 42:17And now it's impossible to do that. And
- 42:19it's the same thing for the music
- 42:22business. It's... We did that
- 42:24review of the...
- 42:26Not documentary, but but the live instructional video
- 42:29like how to get signed and, like, what
- 42:30you do is a metal band in the
- 42:31eighties.
- 42:33Because back then it was yes.
- 42:35You form a band, you play lots of
- 42:37live show you go on a tour you
- 42:40make your own t shirts and then you
- 42:42get in touch with a label and they
- 42:44do all this stuff for you, like none
- 42:46of that exists anymore.
- 42:47Yeah. It's it's not necessary. It's not the
- 42:50order of things and we to do it.
- 42:51It's the same like you don't show up
- 42:53anymore in a suit and hand your resume
- 42:56that you wrote on a type. Yeah. You
- 42:58go online and you fill a thing out
- 42:59and you'll never hear from them. Now it's
- 43:01you somehow go viral,
- 43:03and that's how you become famous, but don't
- 43:06make any money.
- 43:08He's right. But, I mean, that's the thing.
- 43:11There was an ordered way of going about
- 43:13the world. It sucks.
- 43:15But it was a real thing.
- 43:17And I I think that the
- 43:19intentions or the desires from the labels are
- 43:21gone too. They don't want new bands. Not
- 43:23just wanna snatch up all the old stuff
- 43:25that was already there. So they're not even
- 43:27going... They're not gonna throw
- 43:2930000 dollars at you to make a music
- 43:32video that maybe gets played on 20 minutes.
- 43:34Now It's like, well, we're not gonna bother
- 43:36or film something on your phones in an
- 43:39empty warehouse if you wanna put something out.
- 43:41It costs money to develop talent.
- 43:44And you may or may not get anything
- 43:46from it.
- 43:47When you can already take what has
- 43:49existed before, what's already successful. Will continue to
- 43:53be successful
- 43:54because you've sm anything new from happening.
- 43:58And and just investing your
- 44:01in in investing in buying that catalog, so
- 44:04you you own profit from it.
- 44:08It's kinda like how we talk about someone
- 44:10like Sleep token who's a surprise hit all
- 44:12of a sudden. Mh. And in the past,
- 44:15when a, a random band would become huge.
- 44:18All the other labels would try to snatch
- 44:20up things that sound like them so that
- 44:21they could have their own piece. Yeah. That's
- 44:24not happening.
- 44:25There isn't like a sleep token worship band
- 44:27or... Oh, here's another band with goofy get
- 44:30ups and soft boy voices and
- 44:33don't know whatever else they do. It's just...
- 44:35This is the 1 thing and maybe we
- 44:38can buy a piece of it.
- 44:40Yeah. I mean,
- 44:42not to to boomer post here. I was
- 44:44reading Bla mouth earlier. I saw that,
- 44:46Jeff Por of
- 44:48to sold the band's catalog,
- 44:50including, like the song he wrote for Michael
- 44:52Jackson to 1 of these... 1 of these,
- 44:54you know, conglomerate that
- 44:56collects
- 44:57songs like, you know,
- 44:59pokemon cards and then, you know, and and
- 45:01and invest entirely and,
- 45:03you know, getting them played on in movies
- 45:06and commercials and all that so they allow
- 45:08and reap the residual for it. And yes.
- 45:11It's gross.
- 45:13Anyway,
- 45:14this is not about hold the line. This
- 45:16is about exodus.
- 45:18Yeah. So he continues. Here in Nashville where
- 45:21I live young musicians, they asked me that
- 45:23all the time. And I kinda feel like
- 45:25a dick when I'm answering because I'm like,
- 45:27guys, I don't know.
- 45:29I don't know what makes things tick. The
- 45:31bands that are real popular, I don't know
- 45:33why those bands are popular. And I'm not
- 45:35saying they're not good. I just don't know
- 45:37why those bands are the ones that stand
- 45:39out from the ones right now.
- 45:41It all kinda of sounds the same to
- 45:42me. I guess it's probably because I'm just
- 45:45old, but I don't know what direction to
- 45:47give anybody.
- 45:49And when the interview Daniel Bloom noted that,
- 45:52we are living in different times right now,
- 45:54I'll get sinking concurrent. There's no business.
- 45:56Once they started giving the music away, there's
- 45:58no business. We don't sell shit for records.
- 46:01If we don't go out and sell t
- 46:02shirts, we don't make money.
- 46:04I'm a t shirt salesman.
- 46:06Not a musician. Yep.
- 46:08How many hours said that. I'm literally a
- 46:11traveling cha des village.
- 46:13Fuck dude.
- 46:15That's what we do. We play music to
- 46:16try to get people to the store and
- 46:18sell them our fucking stuff with stuff printed
- 46:20on it. That's the business.
- 46:22If you can't fill up a room, 50000
- 46:24units moved down the internet then they don't
- 46:27wanna talk to you. In any day now,
- 46:29we're all gonna lose our jobs these fucking
- 46:31robots.
- 46:32Once see, once the Ai figures I would
- 46:34had to actually make music that people enjoy
- 46:36They're not gonna pay us to do shit.
- 46:40I mean, that's something that you've been on
- 46:43quite a bit over the last year or
- 46:44so. Mh.
- 46:46After bloom expressed her belief that people will
- 46:49always be interested in sing live music being
- 46:51performed by humans, Jack said, well, that's true,
- 46:54but at this point in time, most of
- 46:55the music business isn't that. Most of it
- 46:57is licensing and commercial jingle and music editing
- 47:00and music recording. And that's all that I've
- 47:02been honest. Yep.
- 47:04All that's gonna just disappear. There's gonna be
- 47:0650 people out there who make music that
- 47:09people are interested in that can't be reproduced.
- 47:11And then the rest of us,
- 47:13like, who's gonna pay somebody to write music
- 47:15for a movie. We're pay orchestra, pay 60
- 47:18people to come in and perform it when
- 47:201 guy can just go punch a few
- 47:22commands into a computer and it comes out.
- 47:24And we're not gonna know the fucking difference.
- 47:27Things are changing so fast. I don't really
- 47:29know what to say.
- 47:32Yeah.
- 47:34It's so rare that you have an old
- 47:36metal guy come out and give an interview
- 47:39where everything he says is like Yes, brother.
- 47:42And it's coherent, and he doesn't, like, slip
- 47:45something in. That's just like, oh, I have
- 47:47to say that. Yeah... Yeah. I mean, he
- 47:50he gets in and he's is someone who
- 47:52has been doing it for a long time
- 47:53and is on the front lines of just
- 47:56going on these tours and playing these old
- 47:58man t. And it's just like, I sure
- 48:00hope you buy something because that's the only
- 48:02way I'm gonna eat.
- 48:04And it really does, like, I don't know.
- 48:07I I
- 48:08sometimes because I have such a large collection
- 48:11of t shirts that I don't ever fucking
- 48:13wear. You know, I go to a show
- 48:15sometimes, and I I don't buy a t
- 48:17shirt, and I It makes... I do need
- 48:19to stop and think, like, if I'm doing
- 48:20this, I might as well, like, give the
- 48:22band the few books that they need to
- 48:24actually make it here.
- 48:27It sucks. I I will do better in
- 48:29the future. I mean, I've I've certainly guilt
- 48:32bought
- 48:33merchandise for a band.
- 48:34If they're especially for, like, a known 1
- 48:36where there aren't a lot of people at
- 48:38the show. Yep. She's just like, man. Alright.
- 48:40You know, I'll I'll buy something.
- 48:42Here's a gift for someone or I'll work
- 48:43out in this. Like, I'm not crazy about
- 48:45the band, but I just kinda
- 48:47feel bad enough for It's like, I will
- 48:49give you money. But as as a comp...
- 48:50As a compromise, bands make better merch. I
- 48:53bought AAA
- 48:54horrendous
- 48:55baseball tee you, like, a a rad 1.
- 48:57Looks great. Huge ups to those guys. More
- 49:00bands should do brag.
- 49:02Yeah. It's part of the problem too is
- 49:05there have been bands that I love. I
- 49:07own multiple apps. I'm so excited to see
- 49:09Doing a great set. And the share it
- 49:11suck. And so I'm... It's to the point
- 49:13where I'm not even going to wear that
- 49:15at home. Like, this is a bad design.
- 49:18This looks bad or I can't wear it
- 49:20out in public because it's something gross or
- 49:22there are potty words on it. It's like,
- 49:24man
- 49:26I wanna keep in my money. Wanna do
- 49:28a special shout out here.
- 49:29I went and saw... I drove the fucking
- 49:31Louisiana to see demo.
- 49:33And they sold me
- 49:35the worst t shirt I've ever bought in
- 49:38my life.
- 49:40Did the shirt look like how the vocal
- 49:41sound? The shirt looked great, but the mid
- 49:45too they printed on came from a fucking
- 49:47bur factory. I don't know where they've managed
- 49:50to find this shit. I've never had a
- 49:52t shirt that felt so bad in my
- 49:54life.
- 49:55Your poor chief nipples.
- 49:58And on top of it, like, from a
- 49:59consumer standpoint,
- 50:01you know, even if the merchandise the shirts,
- 50:05the booty shorts, whatever you wanna buy from
- 50:07them. Look okay. Sometimes it's really expensive. Yeah.
- 50:12And
- 50:13a part of me understands that, like, with
- 50:15everything more expensive. Everything's more expensive and with
- 50:18some of these venues taking money, like, I'd
- 50:19get it. But at the same time, man,
- 50:22I don't wanna spend 35 dollars for a
- 50:24t shirt.
- 50:26I I get it. I get it, but
- 50:28I think that
- 50:29honestly, man, like, that's something that is just
- 50:32it's here, and that's how it's gonna go
- 50:33from that on.
- 50:35And part of that too is, I know
- 50:36I can wait until through the tour over,
- 50:38and they wanna get rid of their merch
- 50:39and I can get it for cheaper.
- 50:42But, like, you know, it's... When you're hitting
- 50:44the point where merchandise is more than the
- 50:46ticket and the ticket over is already expensive.
- 50:49It's... You you kind of have to prioritize,
- 50:52like, what do I want? Do I
- 50:54get this stuff from the old band that
- 50:56I know Still trying to make it work?
- 50:59Or do you go for a newer band
- 51:00who's just starting out? And
- 51:03you know, it's all these... Like, you have
- 51:04to make hard decisions where you didn't have
- 51:06to make this in the past where you
- 51:07could buy 2 or 3 shirts. You can
- 51:10buy Cds. You can
- 51:12buy
- 51:12a hat. Any any of these sorts of
- 51:14things and just not break the bank and
- 51:16anymore. And now it's... You kinda have to
- 51:18be like, well.
- 51:19Who do I support with my limited funds?
- 51:22I mean, that is fair. And all of
- 51:24this stuff like, you know,
- 51:26doesn't address the root issue, which is frankly,
- 51:29una addressable by any of us. Yeah. There's
- 51:31nothing we can do about the greedy March
- 51:33of music progress that is just cutting out
- 51:36the musicians, and you're just gonna replace it
- 51:39by a guy sitting at, his computer,
- 51:42making
- 51:43bleep loop sounds and the majority of people
- 51:46clapping their hands like seals.
- 51:48Not great.
- 51:49But hey. You know? Maybe, like, we'll finally
- 51:52have the Em p attack that brings down
- 51:54the Internet or something. That way, we don't
- 51:56have to worry about all that stuff. And
- 51:57then we'll have heavy metal t doors singing
- 51:59on the corner. Yeah. Exactly. I I wanna
- 52:02be a wandering bard, you know?
- 52:05Just, you know,
- 52:06wandering around, like, my neighborhood. I wanna, like,
- 52:09wanna have to go to like, kansas or
- 52:10anything like that.
- 52:11Just door to door rocking. Yeah. Yeah.
- 52:14You, would you request if a thin lizzie
- 52:17you cover on this finder.
- 52:19Woods they'll like some nec fair.
- 52:25Perhaps you have heard of.
- 52:30So I don't know, man. I feel like,
- 52:33exodus is... No.
- 52:34Extremely not my shit or whatever. But I...
- 52:37It is very
- 52:39gratifying to hear somebody that's been in the
- 52:41industry for so fucking long that is able
- 52:43to
- 52:44put it together exactly as it is,
- 52:47Clear eyes full heart,
- 52:49we cannot win.
- 52:52Yeah. All this being said, I'm still not
- 52:53giving exodus any money, but I feel for
- 52:55you.
- 52:56Fucking hate Gary Holt, man.
- 52:59Cobra commander vocals is. And My thing. Yeah.
- 53:03I I support you, but I'm not gonna
- 53:05give you money. Exactly. Exactly.
- 53:08What what do you think, man? Is there
- 53:09anything else you wanna get on this 1?
- 53:13Quickly,
- 53:14maybe we'll get 1 more black sabbath the
- 53:16show.
- 53:17It seems like all the pieces are falling
- 53:19place of at least people wanting to be
- 53:21together for 1 more show, whether or not
- 53:24their health allows them to do it.
- 53:27So
- 53:28Bill Ward
- 53:29was not included in Black sabbath,
- 53:32has not been included in Black sabbath for
- 53:35what almost 20 years now?
- 53:38Yeah. It's been on and off really for
- 53:41most of the band's career beyond, like, the
- 53:43original
- 53:44stuff is...
- 53:45He has had issues with... I'm oz, I
- 53:48think specifically, but, you know, just everyone with
- 53:51aussie Why?
- 53:53You don't know. But the... You know, over
- 53:55the years, they've kinda just gone back and
- 53:57forth of
- 53:58just whatever problems that they have and
- 54:01He's been there. He hasn't been there. The
- 54:031 time I got to Sea black sa,
- 54:04but he was with them. So, I mean,
- 54:07I was all set, but just they reunited
- 54:10without him at some point, and, you know,
- 54:11now,
- 54:12especially Aussie health is very bad. And within
- 54:15the past year,
- 54:17everyone else has said they've wanted to do
- 54:19it.
- 54:20Tony, I owe me back in May said
- 54:22it'd be something that'd be a nice thing
- 54:23to actually do.
- 54:25Geez are Butler around the same times said,
- 54:27I'd love it to happen even if it
- 54:29was 1 final song with the original 4
- 54:31of us with bill on drums, even if
- 54:33it's just 1 song and Os said, if
- 54:35they wanted to do 1 more gig with
- 54:37Bill, I would jump at the chance.
- 54:39And finally, Bill chimed in with Bill worry
- 54:43checking in.
- 54:44Hysterical.
- 54:45Billboard worry checking in regarding all the updates
- 54:47on a possible Have a show in England.
- 54:50I'm in for playing some of everyone's old
- 54:52favorites.
- 54:53Love playing them then, and I'd love to
- 54:55play them 1 last time. I'm not going
- 54:57to talk about health publicly, except to say
- 55:00everybody,
- 55:01every day, I'm pretty good for 76 years
- 55:04old. I'm active musically every day, and I
- 55:06have a very busy and gratifying. Life. Love
- 55:09you all, all the fucking time.
- 55:12So that sounds like
- 55:15if Sharon can get Oz onto a plane,
- 55:18and get him to England,
- 55:20they could at least do a song together.
- 55:23I mean, even still how many times over
- 55:25the last a couple of years as all
- 55:27as he said he's done with playing shows,
- 55:29he keeps doing it, but he keeps saying
- 55:30that like he was so fucking sick and
- 55:32so to crap it, like, this is it.
- 55:34This is no war.
- 55:36Anyway, I think if they're gonna dope him
- 55:37up and get him out there for 1
- 55:39song. Like like button finals debate performance through.
- 55:44They're gonna prop him up with Marion etch,
- 55:46strings and, you know, pant mine and whatever.
- 55:49But, you know, I think you have the
- 55:51pieces there that are willing to do it.
- 55:54There's enough money that you can make 1
- 55:56final time,
- 55:58where it's
- 56:00financially worth it for Sharon and everyone else.
- 56:03Where,
- 56:05you know, beyond, like, trying to do some
- 56:07random festival.
- 56:08We're gonna get a chunk of money. I
- 56:10think personally, this is something that they wanna
- 56:13do
- 56:13that they will make it happen.
- 56:16Provided everyone lives
- 56:18until it happens.
- 56:20Yeah. I mean, well...
- 56:21Boy. That's a big thing. I saw... I
- 56:24believe I saw
- 56:26Merle H final performance ever. Right before he
- 56:29died.
- 56:30And I will tell you that it was...
- 56:33You were watching a man that you could
- 56:34tell was clearly about to die.
- 56:38I don't know
- 56:39if that is something that is appealing for
- 56:41people,
- 56:42like, wanting to see these guys that are
- 56:44on their last legs, try to keep together
- 56:46for 1 more try, but I I don't
- 56:48think I would want any part of it.
- 56:50Oh, is it something that you would wanna
- 56:52see?
- 56:53No. I mean, like I said, I got
- 56:55to see them once already.
- 56:58You know how
- 56:59metal fans are, You know, how rock fans
- 57:01are
- 57:02everyone's happy that loves kiss to see kiss
- 57:05do their thing and we'll gladly pay hundreds
- 57:08and hundreds of dollars to do it. So
- 57:11between the... This is the last time ever.
- 57:13This is the original lineup.
- 57:15People that may have seen them once, people
- 57:16have never seen them before, They'll be more
- 57:18than enough people that wanna be a part
- 57:20of it. And then there's the cloud chaser.
- 57:23The Elon musk's of the world who will
- 57:25put on their freshly purchased size medium share
- 57:29and stand on a sky box. And that
- 57:31boy is not a size medium. He was
- 57:33seen that big ass. Belly he's going. He's
- 57:35not a size medium, but he will wear
- 57:37a shirt that is.
- 57:39And he'll stand up there with
- 57:42Mb from Saudi Arabia and, you know, other
- 57:45people with their blood money. The S will
- 57:48be with him, and they'll be drinking their
- 57:50z as nodding along to paranoid
- 57:53and what war pig not get it.
- 57:55I don't think I can picture a more
- 57:57appealing scene. Thank you, Jordan.
- 57:59Because you know I'm right. Yeah. I know.
- 58:01I know. That pisses in it. Pisses me
- 58:03off, Jordan.
- 58:04Me and barry Gold water. In your heart,
- 58:06you know I'm right.
- 58:11Yeah. I I think that's true.
- 58:14I don't know, man. I I would like
- 58:16to...
- 58:17Before like, we we end all of this
- 58:19stuff, though.
- 58:21I briefly mentioned at the end of the
- 58:22show,
- 58:24last week that I had went out and
- 58:25seen jim mold in her horrendous and that
