Hey everybody, it's Justin and no easy way to say this, but the
0:08
episode you're about to listen to, the Foxy Jazam episode, is
0:11
the very last episode that our friend Peter will be appearing
0:15
on. We unfortunately have lost him
0:18
and it was shortly after we recorded this.
0:24
I just wanted to pop in and say something briefly.
0:30
And next week when we do Manic St.
0:39
Preachers, we say something at the beginning of that too,
0:41
because that was one of the last episodes he was working on.
0:45
But more coming on Peter. We're going to be doing an
0:52
episode on him just to talk about him.
0:54
So if you're listening to this and you've enjoyed Peter
0:58
episodes and would like to chime in on it, if you're somebody
1:02
who's already in the Discord or you can shoot me a message and I
1:06
can read it on that episode, just know that we're thinking,
1:11
are you Peter? We love and miss you already.
1:14
He's left a huge, huge, huge hole.
1:20
And I miss you, friend. And with that, this is, I assure
1:25
you, something he would want. I love you.
1:28
And this one's for you, Peter. And we'll see you on the other
1:31
side of it. It's Deprogram, the podcast
2:11
where we try to get you into a band.
2:14
That's right, we've done all the work for you.
2:16
All you have to do is press play and listen.
2:21
My name is Justin and you could say that I'm band curious
2:25
because I am indeed curious about bands and I like to have
2:28
friends on to come talk about said bands.
2:31
And in the process we will come up with a top ten circuit for
2:35
you so you can get into the band as well.
2:38
And today, man, I'm going straight for the easy 10 Lord,
2:41
we are talking about Foxy Shazam.
2:44
And I feel like, I mean, the easy thing is Peacemaker comes
2:49
out and I think maybe this puts them on the radar for you,
2:53
Peter. So that's what brings them to
2:55
the Discord chat. That's exactly what happened.
3:01
So season 2 of Peacemaker, the opening title sequence has them
3:08
dancing to a song called Oh Lord by this band, Foxy Shazam.
3:13
And I really like the song, so I decided to check some of their
3:18
other stuff out. I was like, wow, these guys are
3:20
really good and they're kind of like a throwback to like a
3:24
little bit of hair metal, a little bit of glam, but still
3:28
kind of having their own thing. I mean, they have like, they
3:31
have horn players in the band, which is unusual.
3:35
But yeah, I think I think they're worthy to talk about.
3:39
And I think that I think that James Gunn could use a little
3:44
help from us in shedding a light on them for the rest of America.
3:50
I'm sure so youth again, peacemaker comes out, you throw
3:55
it in the chat and I don't remember if you specifically
3:59
said this, but the the second you push play on this band,
4:04
anybody who knows anything about Chris goes.
4:07
This is an auto band. So so I don't know if it got
4:11
brought to your attention or if you just happen to see it in the
4:13
chat. Chris, talk to me about Foxy
4:16
Shazam. Yeah, I don't, I, I'm fairly
4:19
certain Peter may have tagged me when we brought them up.
4:25
I, I would be all over it, though, because they're a band I
4:30
listened to, not like fervently. A couple of their records back
4:34
in the what? What are we calling them?
4:37
Aughts. Really. 20/10/2011 In that area
4:44
I, I didn't do like a huge deep dive into them back then.
4:49
I really loved their self-titled album.
4:55
I remember listening to that a lot back in 20/10/2011.
4:59
This was before Jules was even older.
5:01
Jesus. And then I just kind of stopped
5:06
listening to them and they also stopped putting out music.
5:09
I hadn't listened to them in the ages, probably over a decade.
5:15
And then that peace. I love Peacemaker and that song
5:19
came and just the the opening porn, I'm like it.
5:25
It brought it all back. All the foxes usually I had ever
5:28
listened to. I was like, holy shit, I
5:31
remember this song. I remember this band from way
5:34
back when. I used to listen to them
5:36
somewhat regularly. So I, I was very excited to, to
5:44
jump in and listen to more of them.
5:46
A lot of the stuff that, you know, I, I did not hear.
5:50
So it was, it was, it was a fun listen.
5:54
Always a chance to to jump into stuff and you're 2 for two on
5:58
Peace Banker now because we did Wigwam last year too, so.
6:01
We did, yeah, for the same damn. Reason.
6:04
Yeah, for the exact same reason. So that brings us to to Jules.
6:09
And I know, I mean, I don't know if this was just the first
6:13
chance that that, you know, your dad brings a band to you that
6:16
you're like, yes, I'd I'd like to talk about them, but I know
6:19
you've been chomping at the bit. So talk to me about what makes
6:22
Foxy Shazam the one Jules. I just really like them.
6:27
They have like a really cool vibe, right?
6:30
You know, and like, yeah, cool vibe.
6:33
I I really like them. I they're like, I like listening
6:38
to non traditional sleeping music when I sleep and they are
6:41
a very good sleeping band for me.
6:44
So I. Very interesting that.
6:51
I mean, again, you know, depending on on a person's age,
6:54
like what what they kind of get out of the band.
6:59
This is a band that I I feel like maybe I had seen the name
7:04
kind of bandied about here and there.
7:08
I mean, obviously never did the dive.
7:10
It's rare that that's going to be the case at this point in the
7:12
show's history. Literally by the time this comes
7:15
out, where it will be, this might be the one before the 10th
7:20
year anniversary of our first episode.
7:22
So like we're yeah, we're right there on the cusp of it.
7:26
So it's rare that there's going to be a band.
7:30
I've done the dive on that at this point in the show's
7:32
history. But I feel like this is also a
7:36
band that maybe I've heard the name.
7:39
I know I'd never heard the songs.
7:41
I kind of, you know, looked up, you know, hey, has any of their
7:45
songs been in in shows that I know.
7:48
And, you know, a couple of songs that I would expect, but not
7:51
from places that I'd expect and definitely things that I hadn't
7:55
seen. So like they there is a
7:57
familiarity to their music. You know, most notably, they
8:02
kind of give me, and This is why I knew, you know, from hearing O
8:05
Lord, that Chris would be into this band.
8:07
Like there's a theatric element to them, especially, you know,
8:12
from self-titled going forward. Actually, I think it kind of
8:15
introduces itself in introducing, but also I was, I
8:19
was very pleased to hear like their first, the first record
8:22
that we covered. I I can't remember like which
8:24
ones we pulled, but there's points in this discography that
8:29
gave me like at the drive in and I was like, OK, this is neat
8:36
that they do the theatric thing that I would expect from a a a
8:40
band that Chris would be covering, but they also do a
8:43
thing that I would expect from a a band that Peter would be
8:47
covering. And so like it this all that to
8:51
say, this was a way better band than I guess I expected that
8:55
they would be like it. It's also a way deeper band, you
9:01
know, like as far as, as far as the discography, like there's,
9:06
there's a lot to choose from. And that said, like Peter, there
9:09
was a bit of a discussion at one point about what do we bring to
9:12
the table? Because we can't, I think we
9:14
left stuff off. You know, I don't know, I'm
9:17
doing a lot of panels right now, so I might have my conversations
9:20
mixed up, but I think we left some stuff off the table when
9:24
when it comes to how we took our initial list.
9:27
What was your thought? And then talk to me about how
9:29
you formed your 20 for this one. I think the way we formed the
9:35
list was took the first few albums, then took out two or
9:43
three albums, and then did like the two most recent ones I
9:46
think. Yeah.
9:47
I think that's, I think that's right, yeah.
9:49
That's exactly it, yeah. So forming my list like this was
9:55
a discovery for me because I, I'd only really listened to the
10:01
self-titled album. So it was interesting to go back
10:05
and then go forward to see like where they've been and where
10:08
they are now. And my list ended up kind of
10:11
being kind of covering everything.
10:17
There's nothing that I really like leaned on.
10:19
There's no album that I really leaned on too much.
10:21
I think I've got like a little bit of everything here.
10:25
Yeah, I, I, you know what? I don't want to give up too much
10:28
away because, you know, we're a couple away from me.
10:30
But I, I, I, when you look at what we took here, Chris, like
10:36
is there kind of to Peter's point is, is this like a little
10:40
everything kind of band or were you leaning heavily somewhere?
10:44
It, it is a little bit of everything we we may have missed
10:50
out on. They, they run a gamut.
10:52
I mean, they do some Hard Rock, they do some poppy kind of
10:56
music. They, they have a lot of
11:00
different styles over the years and we might have missed a
11:05
little bit in the albums we cut because we cut everything from
11:08
what, 2014 to 2023 and then jump back in, in their most 2 recent
11:14
albums. But there's not a huge like a
11:19
vast difference in their sound with their new stuff compared to
11:22
their old stuff. That being said, I probably
11:27
leaned more into the old stuff because that's what I was
11:29
familiar with. But I really enjoyed.
11:31
I enjoyed every song that I listened to and get it.
11:35
Getting down to 20 was was really fucking hard.
11:40
Those last like two or three cuts were were brutal for me
11:44
because I really liked all of the songs that I picked and then
11:48
some. So Jules, this being your second
11:51
time here, did you learn anything from your first time
11:56
and talk to me about what you're looking at when you're putting
11:59
together your Foxy Shazam list? So like I got to find the words
12:08
for it. Hold on.
12:08
OK, So like I learned that like based on the stuff my dad plays
12:17
in the car, choose that because if my dad likes it and I like
12:20
it, then it's probably going to be at least have two people
12:24
probably. And like for choosing my songs,
12:28
like I went through the original playlist.
12:30
I added like a lot of songs and I just like on my way to school,
12:37
on the bus, walking to the bus stop on the way home, all that
12:41
type of stuff. I would just listen to it and
12:44
like I have like 50 songs in my playlist that I had to narrow
12:50
down to 20. So I had to.
12:54
So I like listen to the first few minutes and then like if I
13:00
liked a song, like I would put 2 songs up against each other.
13:04
If I liked one better, I would get rid of the other one.
13:07
And then once it was down to like 15 I just listened to them
13:12
all fully and chose my favorites.
13:17
Not 1525, right? Yeah, so.
13:22
Yeah, this was very interesting because like I said, it's kind
13:29
of a surprise, surprising band. I mean, you kind of go in
13:33
expecting the one thing and yes, they do that one thing.
13:38
But then when you start where we started at the beginning, it's
13:43
kind of different and you're like, oh, OK, Like you can see
13:47
right, You can see the evolution, but like, it kind of
13:51
changes your mind on, you know, what to expect going forward.
13:56
So I mean, all that to say, like I'm pretty evened out.
14:02
I have a little everything pretty evened out up front.
14:08
Not that I didn't like the most 2 recent records, but I felt
14:11
like that those those two had the most expendable songs in the
14:17
in the grander scheme of things. And like I definitely took some
14:22
songs as almost like a a point, like a hey, you know, this is
14:29
something that they do or you know, again, specifically this
14:33
gave me at the drive in vibes. I feel like based on everything
14:41
we've we've gone through so far, this one could we could be in
14:44
the woods a little here, right, Peter, like you kind of
14:47
mentioned it. A four person panel just on its
14:49
own is already kind of hard to nail based on everything we've
14:54
said. How many do you think we get
14:55
through unanimously for the final say?
15:02
I'm going to go with six, OK? All right.
15:06
I like 6. That's a good number.
15:09
What do you think, Chris? I I think 6 is probably a little
15:15
over. I'm optimistic because these
15:21
these guys have a lot of different sounds and I know we
15:24
all like a lot of similar things, but yeah, Jules is going
15:29
to be a wild card on this one for sure because she's only
15:32
heard like that I know of with me, one or two of their song.
15:36
Obviously she's heard them all by now, but I don't know what
15:39
she's been listening to. My kids got some weird music
15:42
tastes. I don't know where that came
15:44
from. Hey.
15:46
But she likes The Aquabats. That's true.
15:50
So I've got, I've got 4 that I think are definites and maybe
15:56
one at one will slip through. I'll go with, I'll go with five,
15:59
I guess. OK all.
16:00
Right. I mean, that's, that's still
16:02
like a good half of them. I mean, so Peter's taken 6, your
16:07
dad's taken 5. What do you think, Jules?
16:09
How many do you think we get through unanimously?
16:14
I was going to say 5. My dad stole five, so I'm going
16:18
to say 3 because I despise even numbers.
16:23
They are the worst. Our numbers are better.
16:26
And just like I do not know what one of the people here like at
16:32
all, and I do not know you all that well, I do not know your
16:35
music taste. So you do know?
16:37
That I like The Aquabats though. Yeah.
16:41
OK, so I mean, she brings up valid points here and she may
16:48
nail it. I don't think I don't want to go
16:50
any less than 3. I could take the the even number
16:56
that she's left there now though.
17:00
Matter of fact, I'm going to do that.
17:02
I'm going to take that 4 I feel like I wanted.
17:06
This. I wanted 4 but I'm feeling
17:08
optimistic. Well this.
17:10
Feels like a band that we could just nail like just one after
17:14
another. And you know, it wouldn't shock
17:17
me at all. But also it feels like, you
17:20
know, listening to how Jules picked her songs, listening to
17:24
like all all of us could have picked different parts of each
17:28
record like this. It just it it could go a lot of
17:31
different ways here. So all right, what we're going
17:33
to do is we're going to take a quick pause and on the other
17:35
side of it, we're going to play the game.
17:37
It's to program Jack. We'll be right back.
17:43
And with that, the name of the game is deprogrammed.
17:45
The four of us have come through a selection of the Foxy Shazam
17:49
discography. We covered most of it, by the
17:51
way, in case you're wondering, and plucked out 20 songs that
17:55
we're now going to mash together in an attempt to create a top 10
17:58
starter kit for you. In case you have never given
18:01
Foxy Shazam the time of day and there's nowhere else to start
18:04
but here, this is, you know, there's a a chance that this is
18:09
the number one. I would not be shocked it it
18:12
probably should be. I was worried that I was picking
18:16
it because of Peace Baker. No, that's just the reason I
18:19
know about it. It's a fucking great song.
18:23
It really is awesome, and it really is indicative of what you
18:27
should expect from Foxy's jam. I'm starting with Oh Lord.
18:31
Yeah. Oh yeah, right.
18:34
Like it's actually even better than than you think it is like
18:39
from the from the intro of Peacemaker.
18:43
Like it's it is such a good song.
18:47
It just also fits really well as the open for for Peacemaker.
18:54
So let me get that up to the top.
18:58
Ain't no way we can do this without Lord.
19:00
Oh, Lord, I, I feel like it's the early front runner for
19:04
number one. I'm of course open to being
19:08
wrong about that. I just, it's so encapsulating.
19:13
So all right, Oh Lord is in Peter where you want to start.
19:21
OK so I had this song on my list, but then when I was doing
19:24
some more research I found out that this song was in the first
19:28
season of Peacemaker and I just didn't realize it.
19:32
And it's welcome to the Church of Rock'n'roll.
19:35
Oh, I didn't notice. I don't have that.
19:37
I, I, I noticed that when I was looking it up.
19:42
Welcome to the Church of Rock'n'roll is there It is Peter
19:47
and Chris. No, I'm sorry, I was saying that
19:51
it was in the first season. Oh.
19:53
But I. Actually don't.
19:54
I actually don't have it. That was that was I think 21 and
19:57
22. That was a super late cut.
20:00
It was pretty late for me. I really like that song.
20:03
Yeah, I don't. Have it either I it was a really
20:06
hard 1 to get rid of. It was like my last one that I
20:09
got rid of. I really like that one.
20:11
But yeah, I don't have it. Oh man, now I feel bad.
20:16
Wow, I do. Have been on the 1st pick.
20:18
I know, right? That's.
20:19
Brutal. I'm sorry, Peter.
20:20
Yeah, man. Sorry, it happens.
20:24
All right, Chris. Now I feel silly.
20:29
This is the one I brought back and it got rid of Church of
20:32
Rock'n'roll for and I, and I picked it not just because it's
20:37
a good song, but I picked it for for Jules because she's my
20:41
teenage demon baby. Oh.
20:43
Very good. No, I don't have that one.
20:47
No, I don't I. Do not have it, no.
20:54
No, I did. Really like it though.
20:57
Yeah, you are my little teenage demon child.
21:00
I have a. Feeling we're going to have
21:02
issues with that self-titled record, I feel like there's a
21:05
good chance we might cover everything on it.
21:08
So there is a. Good chance that we will pick
21:12
between all of us, every song on that record.
21:14
I agree. All right, Jules.
21:20
I'm I'm putting my favorite one, Hon.
21:23
It's the only one that be a Lord for me.
21:26
The only way to my heart. It's my favorite one.
21:32
I got that only way to my. Heart, I don't think I have that
21:36
one. There.
21:37
It is. No, I don't.
21:39
I don't have it 2 So it goes into the combo and we will come
21:47
back to it later. All right, here's a song that
21:56
really kind of changed my perception of the band pretty
21:59
early on. I could see this going either
22:03
way. I could see one or two of you
22:05
having it. I could see this going to the
22:07
bin. But this also get this is the
22:10
first time I was like wait at the drive in.
22:14
What like more of a punk thing going on here?
22:17
How about no Don't shoot? Yep, that.
22:21
One is another one of my favorites.
22:23
I have that one. It's like in my top five.
22:26
It's another one of my favorites.
22:29
Wow, no, I don't have that one. Hey, I'll take that.
22:31
Three no, don't shoot. No, don't shoot.
22:35
Oh, it's so oh man, it walks that line of that at the drive
22:41
in punk type thing, heavier rock, but it still has the
22:46
theatrics that you you would expect going in if you had only
22:51
heard O Lord, So like out. I'm with you, Jules.
22:54
No, don't shoot is one of my favorite songs I came across in
22:57
this. So yeah, it's.
22:59
Awesome. All right, we'll take.
23:01
A three there. Hell yeah, Peter.
23:07
Let's see if I can get something that won't go in the bin.
23:11
How about killing it from self-titled?
23:16
See. Yeah.
23:16
Yeah, yeah. I don't have that one I.
23:20
Also do not have it. You didn't get binned, so we're
23:25
going to. I'll take it, too.
23:26
Yeah. We're going to cover that whole
23:27
thing, aren't we? All right, Chris.
23:34
Well, since I just said yeah, yeah, yeah, let's go with yes,
23:36
yes, yes, yeah, man. No, no, no, that is.
23:41
Another one I also do not have OK.
23:44
We'll take a two there. It's a little surprising that
23:48
it's a 2, but we'll take a two there.
23:51
All right, Jules. Another one of my favorites.
23:56
I have beginning. It's just a beautiful song.
23:59
I love it, no. I don't have that one.
24:04
What is it? Beginning.
24:06
Beginning. Oh.
24:07
No, I don't have that one. I'm sorry, I don't.
24:10
Have it hold. On let's see.
24:14
I think just like I'm not usually a big fan of songs
24:18
without words, but Beginning is just beautiful.
24:21
I love it. Oh, that's probably why I don't
24:24
have it. I almost never put instrumentals
24:28
on on these lists. Yeah.
24:33
That's why it's not on my main list.
24:36
I don't see it on my main list. It looks like I do.
24:39
Oh, I wonder. If you what record was that off
24:42
of kiddo? I wonder if it was from before
24:44
we cut the list down. Dark Blue Knight, yeah.
24:49
That's a problem, yeah, I thought I.
24:51
Saw it in the thinky it probably.
24:53
That's OK. It was.
24:54
On the initial, yeah, it's fine. You liked it and that's the
24:56
important part. Yep, so you brought it to the
25:00
dance and now hopefully somebody that listens to this can go
25:04
listen to that and be like, oh, I get it.
25:08
All right, yes, yes, yes. Was actually going to be my next
25:11
play. So let me in the tradition of
25:18
going through everything off of self-titled, how about Want to
25:23
Be Angel? Oh yes, Oh yeah, I.
25:26
Have that one. Yeah, I got that one.
25:29
There we go that. Was one of mine that was one of
25:32
my. This one's definitely unanimous.
25:34
Has to. Be had to be.
25:40
I was listening to that one before we went on.
25:41
Actually it just and actually this is what this song is what
25:48
prompted me to look up had it been in something because it
25:51
sounds so familiar. If it has, I don't know what it
25:56
is because I I wasn't able to find it so.
26:02
It. Honestly sounds like it should
26:04
have been on Peacemaker, but because like that first line is
26:09
like something about being awesome.
26:12
All right, we'll take that unanimous there.
26:15
Boom boom boom, Peter. I'm picking this not just
26:20
because I like the movie, but because I also really like the
26:23
song. The Rocketeer.
26:26
Fuck yeah. Yes.
26:30
Yep. Hey.
26:32
I didn't expect that one to be, but I actually cut that and
26:35
brought it back. Nice.
26:37
Yeah, I'm glad that. Well, that was because that was
26:41
going to be my next one number one.
26:43
Yeah, the. Rocketeer is one that I also
26:47
originally cut before the the list that we have now, but then
26:52
the Gonzo Ho album got removed, which is one of my favorites, so
26:56
I've replaced one of the ones on the Gonzo album with Vakatia
27:00
because Vakatia is really good. Oh yeah, like again, like that
27:06
next record introducing really introduces the idea of them
27:11
leaning more into the theatrics and less on the rock.
27:14
And yeah, it like this is where it's like that song is where it
27:19
kind of like again, it's like I I'm hesitant to say something
27:24
like Queen Light because it's not even Queen Light like, but
27:26
it is Queen like it is in that vein and it's got like the rock
27:30
and piano. It's it's just a good jam.
27:34
If if you ever meet the lead singer, don't tell him that.
27:37
Oh, he. He hates being.
27:38
Compared to Queen. You know, because he's.
27:41
Everyone compares him to Freddie Mercury just because of his
27:44
build and his look and he hates. I I get that, but like also, you
27:51
know, I, I would guess that most people mean it in the most
27:54
complimentary way, like absolutely.
27:57
Absolutely so, but. Yeah, I get that.
28:00
All right. The Rocketeer is in and that was
28:04
Peter. So, Chris?
28:07
Oh shit. OK, let's go with.
28:11
I love this song. Holy touch.
28:14
Yeah. I got it.
28:19
I. Do not have it all right.
28:22
That's a good one to take a three on though 3I.
28:26
I just love I love the song, but I the end with that with radio
28:31
DJ cracks me up every time I listen to this song.
28:35
All right, if that was this new song, I'm paying.
28:39
OK. We're really it just.
28:43
It gets me every time. I love it.
28:46
All right, we'll take a three there and Jules.
28:51
I'm going to go with Dreamscape 2020.
28:55
I really like it. And and and another bit with
28:58
like the the little and think he's like, it kind of like does
29:02
this little thinky where it like fades in and fades out.
29:05
I think that's really cool. It always trips me up and makes
29:08
me think there's something going on with my earbuds, but no, it's
29:12
just a song and that's really cool.
29:16
That's the reason I cut that song, because I also thought
29:19
that I'm like, what is wrong with my earbuds?
29:22
And I thought about keeping it. I kept it for a while, and then
29:24
I decided that it just annoyed me too much, so I cut that one.
29:29
Yeah, I can't. Save you there, sorry.
29:32
Yeah, I don't have it all. Right, Schnikeys, we're back
29:37
around to me, if I recall correctly, the most the two most
29:50
recent records, not that one, Animality Opera and Box of
29:58
Magic, right? I believe both of those were
30:04
2025. Yes, that's.
30:08
Insane. Firstly, I mean, it's smart, but
30:12
that's insane. So let me tackle something from
30:16
here. As I said, like I think as
30:20
records they hold up fine. It was finding the songs that I
30:24
thought that could hang with the other ones.
30:27
I'll go to Box of Magic. How about it's not the end of
30:30
the world? Yes, Yep.
30:34
Hey. Yeah, Oh.
30:37
Shit. I did.
30:38
Not see another one. That I did not expect.
30:40
Oh shit. We might get our six.
30:42
Yeah. It's the only one that I have
30:45
from Box of Magic. Interesting.
30:48
Well, you're not supposed to say that, child.
30:51
Spoilers, Spoilers. Oh, wait.
30:53
But that's all right. Oops, now I don't want.
30:56
To say one that I was going to say update it still get it as a.
31:00
Conversation. Yeah, hold on, let me queue that
31:02
up real quick. Oh yeah, Track 1.
31:05
I should have known that I didn't mean to again, like I
31:11
don't want to disparage of their most recent work because it it,
31:15
it sure seems like I'm saying that, but like there's just
31:20
heavy hitters on everything before this.
31:23
And it's like I I definitely, I'm glad we got this one through
31:27
because they the newer records are really good and belong.
31:33
It's just there's some really great stuff that we haven't even
31:35
gotten to yet. So, yeah, all right, not the end
31:39
of the world gets in. And that puts us at my 4:00.
31:42
So we definitely at least got to do one more folks.
31:47
That's me. So, Peter.
31:51
I'm going to go back to the first How about aroma of you?
32:00
Nope. Nope.
32:02
Don't have it. No, I.
32:03
Can't save you? Sorry, I know for the record I I
32:10
feel like on my very first pass I did have a good portion of
32:16
Flamingo Trigger. I think it was enough that I had
32:20
to make a make a cut before I moved on to the next one.
32:24
Let's see, I cuddle. I didn't.
32:26
I was not a big fan of of that first record, but I was also
32:32
never a heavier metal kind of guy or hair metal, and that's
32:37
what that album is mostly made-up of.
32:40
So I kind of leaned away from that album, but understandable.
32:46
First album a good bit cuz I do quite enjoy like heavy metal and
32:51
stuff. I saw I saw Lamb of God and Gore
32:56
with one of my friends back in the summer.
32:58
So nice. Did you see Gore's cover of Pink
33:01
Pony Club? No, that is.
33:05
Good. It's just I.
33:08
We'll talk about that on the after the fact, cuz yeah, yeah.
33:11
Yeah, you should. Definitely see it now I.
33:13
Now I gotta check it out indeed. Cuz I.
33:17
Do also quite like Chapelvone. Indeed, that's.
33:19
Why I brought it up. I knew that about you.
33:21
Your dad told me. All right, let's see.
33:24
So let's see. That one was Peter.
33:26
So. Chris.
33:28
How about you know my name? Yeah, I.
33:33
Like that new I do. Not have that one.
33:38
I wanted to cut it because Corey Feldman, but I, I love Corey
33:42
Feldman, but he's become kind of a, a, a weird problematic kind
33:46
of guy, which, you know, I don't shy away from problematic,
33:50
right? But I just really like that
33:52
song. Yeah, I was listening to it and
33:55
I was like, wait, is that Corey Feldman?
33:58
Yeah, there you go. Indeed it was all right.
34:04
And just that got. Two.
34:06
Yeah. That's the two.
34:06
So it at this point it gets to hang around.
34:09
It's not out yet. And I think we just crossed the
34:13
threshold for NTP is out, but there's still a good, good bit
34:20
left. So Jules, where do you want to
34:22
go? I've got introducing Foxy.
34:28
I just really like the vibe of the song, it's really cool.
34:34
I think that's a great jam, but I do not have it.
34:38
Yeah. I don't either, sorry.
34:40
That was a late cut all. Right, let's see, we've really
34:51
kind of covered everything. Haven't we all tried out a
34:54
animality opera? Because we haven't really
34:57
crossed that one yet. How about Pink Sky?
35:01
Yeah, I've got that one. I do.
35:03
Not have have it. Was that a no, Chris?
35:08
That was a no, Yeah. OK.
35:09
So I'll take. A2 there.
35:10
That's all right. That's a good two.
35:11
All right, Peter. I'm going to go back to
35:20
introducing Red Cape Diver. I do have that one.
35:26
I don't. That's a great song.
35:28
Yeah, I don't either. Unfortunately, but A2, these
35:32
twos are going to be lit like we heard.
35:37
Yeah, we are going to be conversing and conversing and
35:42
there's still a chance that we hit something here.
35:44
So right. Chris, do I want to go?
35:49
Nah, let's go. Let's go with the shit that I
35:52
like. Did we?
35:53
Do we have not. How about unstoppable?
35:56
I got it. Yeah, I.
35:59
Do not have it no see. That was one that I thought
36:02
would be a four. OK, I'll take a three.
36:06
There, because at this point, the threes are likely to be in.
36:12
All right, Jules. I'm going to go with another one
36:20
from Introducing because I really like that album, it's one
36:25
of my favourites. A dangerous man.
36:29
I was actually going there next. That's a good song, but I do not
36:33
have it. Oh yeah.
36:39
Oh, that one hurts a little. I I that was a late.
36:42
Cut. That was a super late cut I
36:44
thought for. Sure, that one was going to find
36:46
its way. Yeah, I probably.
36:47
Cut it too for a stupid reason to bring some stupid ass song
36:50
back in. It was probably like teenage
36:53
fucking demon baby or something which got a lot.
36:57
Overthinking the room. Sometimes friend overthinking
37:00
the room. Sometimes.
37:01
I get it, I do it all the time. That song.
37:05
Teenage demon baby. It just kept coming up on my
37:08
deed. I do a lot of DJ the AI thing on
37:10
Spotify. Kept throwing.
37:13
That song in there and every time I heard it, I'm like, I
37:16
really like the song and I have a teenage demon, so yeah.
37:21
We're only about halfway through.
37:24
I feel like we got a couple more rounds in US.
37:29
I'll try out another introducing track.
37:31
How about ghost animals? No, I do.
37:37
Not have that one. Can't save you.
37:41
My first bin. Bummer.
37:45
All right, Peter. How about Bye Bye Symphony?
37:57
That one hurts. That's.
37:58
A great fucking song. I didn't keep it, but that's a
38:01
great song. I.
38:03
Don't have it, but it is a really good song.
38:06
It was like one of my last cuts. I can't believe.
38:08
That's getting bend. Like I almost wanted to, you
38:13
know, make space for it when I was listening to it because it's
38:17
literally the only answer I got when I asked reads what's?
38:22
Oh, really? Yeah, it's the only answer.
38:24
And they said bye bye Symphony for sure.
38:27
And when I listened to it beforehand, I was like, yeah,
38:29
they're right. I'm sure at least two people
38:32
will have it. I'm sure it'll get into the
38:33
conversation. I cannot believe that's getting
38:35
bent. I honestly.
38:37
Have no no answer for why I cut it.
38:40
Oh yeah. Yeah, I mean, most of us never
38:42
do so right? So I'll be.
38:46
Ashamed of yourself because how I was.
38:47
Feeling at the moment, yeah. Yeah, Well.
38:50
Again, that this self-titled record, I feel like throw, throw
38:55
a dart, you know, like, oh Lord, you know what?
38:58
Was going. In and then everything else
39:00
could have come come out of it. That's.
39:03
Probably why I caught it because I have so much off of that
39:08
record already and I had to cut some and that's I bet that's why
39:13
I got it was like, well, I got to cut something.
39:15
I mean as it is might as well be this.
39:17
I think I still. Had five from that record, which
39:20
is 1/4 of my list. So, so all right, Chris.
39:31
Let's I guess I'll go back to that first album.
39:35
Let's go with my wife's juice and water tower wine, no?
39:41
I unfortunately do not. Have that one.
39:43
I didn't. Expect anyone to have this one
39:45
but I. Don't have?
39:47
There's I, I. It's a great title.
39:50
Yeah. I didn't have, like I said, I
39:53
wanted to get a little bit of album representation.
39:55
I wanted to get at least two off of every record, so that was one
39:59
that I brought back. That is probably my least
40:02
favorite record, though. Yeah, I'd.
40:07
Have to think on that. I mean, I do think it's middle
40:10
of the pack for me, but yeah, I'd have to really think about
40:15
that. So, All right, Jules.
40:19
I I am, I'm going to go with Dreamer.
40:22
It's just, it's a vibe. I really like it.
40:26
A lot of these songs aren't just vibes, but I really like
40:29
Dreamer. I don't have dream no me.
40:34
Neither. I don't have it all right.
40:39
I think maybe we do one more round here and dump out.
40:45
I mean I it'll be a hefty dump out but.
40:49
I don't have that. Many left, actually.
40:52
OK, all right, so let's we'll do this round and then then we'll
40:55
see where we're all at. How about evil thoughts?
41:05
No, no. I think that one for sure is a
41:13
victim of being on self-titled because I thought for.
41:18
Yeah, I thought for sure that one would have at least enough
41:22
to beat to hang around in the combo.
41:24
OK, there's. Too many good songs on that
41:26
record indeed. All right, Peter.
41:31
I'm going to go back to Church of Rock'n'roll.
41:35
I want to be yours. Hey, that one.
41:38
You stole mine. Yeah, I do have it.
41:42
I don't have that. I don't.
41:43
Either, but I want to say that it was for sure on my first
41:47
pass, I couldn't tell you where it dropped and or why.
41:50
All right, Chris. How about the temple new?
42:03
I do not. Have that one.
42:05
No, but I really like that song. Just not enough to put it on
42:10
his. That's one.
42:11
That's another one I I I caught and brought back.
42:14
Interesting. And Jules.
42:20
I I I honestly have to go with intro slash bombs away.
42:25
It's like one of my favorites. Wow.
42:30
I got it. I wasn't going to throw that out
42:32
there because I didn't think anyone else would have it, but I
42:34
love that song. Yeah, it's.
42:36
Really good. I love it.
42:38
Well, I. Can't, I can't make it
42:40
unanimous, but it does get a three then that sounds like I.
42:44
Love the actual dogs barking and then they incorporate it into
42:49
the singing. I love the way they do that.
42:52
Yeah, that's. Really cool.
42:55
Yeah, I mean I had it on 1st pass.
42:59
I have no real reason. Again, I think it just kind of.
43:04
Should have kept it. It would have kept you from
43:05
winning. That's.
43:06
True, that's true. We might have.
43:09
Another unanimous sort of dump out.
43:10
It's happened before, yeah. All right, so Speaking of, I
43:16
know that this one won't be, but I like when the band tells me
43:20
what to expect upfront. And again, their sound does
43:23
morph, but like I was right on board the French passion of
43:28
animality, opera. I got it, I do.
43:33
Not have that one. I don't.
43:36
OK, we'll take. It too.
43:37
That's good. Boom and boom.
43:42
Brains of Vegas off of that first record.
43:45
Nope. Yes.
43:47
Hey. I thought about it was like one
43:51
of my last cuts. I almost replaced it with one of
43:55
my ones but I decided not to so I do not have it.
43:58
It's a really good song though. Two last one from that record
44:04
across the golden field. No, I do.
44:09
Not have it bend. Moving on to my last from
44:15
self-titled, Count Me out. Yep.
44:18
Yeah, that one. I do not have OH.
44:25
I thought, yeah, I thought that I was.
44:28
I was out of the woods. We'll take a three there and
44:33
let's see. Moving on to the Church of
44:35
Rock'n'roll, how about Last Chance at Love?
44:40
No, no, I do not have it forever.
44:44
Together. Yes.
44:48
That one I also do not have. I wasn't a real big fan of The
44:52
Church of Rock'n'roll. I mean I like the songs but like
44:55
I liked other songs more. Understandable.
45:00
That was a no, Peter. Yeah, that was a no.
45:04
Animality Opera, you don't judge the birds.
45:09
Yes, hey. I do not have that one, no.
45:15
I had this feeling that Justin and I would sync up on a lot of
45:19
these songs and the others would not.
45:21
It's very. Interesting to this is like the
45:23
best dump out I think I've ever had.
45:25
I I may not have landed any any unanimous, but like I'm hitting
45:30
almost all of them and now now this one will go with the bin,
45:34
I'm sure. Last but not least, what's it to
45:39
me? Yeah.
45:41
No, I don't have that. I do not.
45:43
Have that one either. There you go all.
45:47
Right into the bin it goes. That means I won a.
45:50
Hold on. Let me.
45:51
Yeah. Yeah.
45:52
Four. Yeah, I think I have.
45:54
I think I thought about. Going four, I knew I shouldn't
45:57
have been optimistic. I think I know what song I'm
46:01
going to pick, but we'll we'll see how it goes.
46:04
All right, so you can make this conversation heavier, Peter,
46:09
with whatever you got left. I have literally have just one
46:13
left and it's magic. I don't have that one.
46:18
I do not have that one either. All right.
46:22
What do I have left? I only have a couple I think.
46:25
Wasted feelings. Nah, no.
46:31
OK, karaoke pain. Again, Nah, no.
46:38
OK, that's it for me. I was.
46:40
Pretty late on karaoke pain. That one was on my first pass.
46:44
I really. I was that it was.
46:47
I kept it. I thought about cutting it a
46:49
lot, but then every time I'd go back and listen to what I'd go.
46:52
I can't. I can't cut this song.
46:55
Sometimes I don't know why. But yeah, all.
46:58
Right. And just for paperwork purposes,
47:03
Jules, what do you got left? I've got a few left.
47:07
I have it's hair smelled like bonfire.
47:09
Oh that's a good one. And I've got suffering and
47:19
doomed. Oh, and what kind of?
47:23
Child am I raising? I have red Cape diver all.
47:30
Right, that's good. Wait, wait.
47:33
We played that once, Yeah. Yeah, wait, we did.
47:36
Yeah. You already said yes to it as
47:38
well, so it doesn't change anything.
47:39
It's still a 2. I thought about that.
47:43
Yeah, I thought we didn't say that already.
47:47
OK, I've got I've got King of Animality.
47:51
That's a good one. Empire of the Vampire.
47:58
And then finally killing it. All right.
48:01
We did kill him in already, yeah.
48:03
Yeah, we did count it, Yeah. I think that was a three.
48:07
No, it was a two. Well.
48:08
I have it listed as a 2, but it's a 3.
48:11
Now Peter and Justin. Did either of you have it,
48:14
Peter? Peter had it and you had it
48:17
right. So, Jules.
48:18
Just missed I am I? Am not I am not good at
48:21
remembering stuff. OK, all right, so that takes.
48:24
Three now to a. 3. Yes, three now, yeah.
48:28
All right. So that gets us to this.
48:32
All right, let me shift this around.
48:34
I'll read what we've got in already and we'll start working
48:37
these threes and go from there. I can't believe I'm winning, but
48:43
I'm all right with it, I think. All right, so we've got oh Lord,
48:46
the Rocketeer wannabe Angel, and it's not the end of the world.
48:51
One of those was a for sure, and the other two, I'm not shocked,
48:56
but like they weren't, wouldn't have been high on my list as as
49:00
unanimous. I mean, the fact that they're on
49:04
the list doesn't shock me. The fact that they were
49:06
unanimous kind of does. So all right, let's work through
49:09
these threes. 123-4567 threes. Oh wow.
49:17
So. We do have to cut technically
49:20
two of them, and then I get a final say.
49:21
So all right, we've got no, don't shoot.
49:24
Holy touch a dangerous man, unstoppable intro bombs away,
49:29
killing it. Count me out.
49:32
And that's the threes. So are we just bidding the twos
49:40
then or I? Mean, I get theoretically that's
49:44
what we should be doing. Technically that's the rules
49:49
depending on how much you want to fight for a 2.
49:54
I've only got. I've only got 1/2 that I.
49:57
Really want I've got. 1/2 that I really want to fight for, and
50:03
that's the only way to my heart. It's my favorite one, just like
50:08
in general my favorite Foxy Shazam song.
50:11
That's the only two I really want to fight for.
50:13
The only way. That makes.
50:14
It that makes it worth fighting for if it's your favorite for
50:17
sure. For sure.
50:19
All right, so let's let's take let's take whatever threes we
50:24
feel like should have been unanimous or we think, you know,
50:32
are just kind of teetering on the edge and kind of should be
50:34
there anyway. And then see what what kind of?
50:38
Sorry, go ahead. I was going to say.
50:40
And just see what kind of room we have left.
50:43
Right. I was going to say.
50:46
I'll put one up for dump and that's intro bombs away to lose
50:52
it. I'd.
50:55
Say we could lose them, OK. Unless.
50:58
Anybody feels really, really strongly about it.
51:00
It's a really cool song. Yeah, you.
51:03
You stole what I was going to say.
51:04
It's a really cool song, but there are definitely some songs
51:07
that deserve to be on here more than that one.
51:10
OK, yeah, I honestly thought I was going to be the only one
51:12
with that. You all right with that Peter
51:17
like intro bomb? Yeah.
51:18
I mean, if something's got to go, I'm fine with that being it,
51:23
OK? Plus.
51:24
That records going to have a lot so right and I was just.
51:27
Going to say there's already 2IN and there's a chance that that
51:31
won't be the end of it. I feel like no don't shoot at
51:39
this point. Should go in.
51:41
Yeah, that's one of my favourites.
51:44
It is. I really like that one.
51:47
I am. In that same camp of it being
51:49
one of my favorites, but it also covers the Flamingo trigger for
51:54
us. It's the only one that got a
51:56
three. So it I feel like that kind of
52:00
does twofold Anybody I'm fine with?
52:03
That OK, All right, so. Let's do that.
52:09
All right. Is there one that you're kind of
52:11
looking that kind of teeters on the edge of being out?
52:14
Peter, any of those threes? Being out, yeah, damn, I know.
52:21
Right. It's it's a rough, it's a rough
52:24
question. I mean, I, I think we're going
52:30
to have the self title. I'm pretty well represented, so
52:34
might as well take something else off maybe, right?
52:39
But oh God, which one though. I know.
52:42
So the ones that are still there are unstoppable.
52:44
Killing it and count me out. I mean, of those three, I'm
52:50
inclined to lose. Count me out.
52:53
I was just. Looking at that, yeah.
52:55
We can count. That one.
52:57
Count me out. I don't even have count me out
52:59
so I'm fine with losing that one.
53:01
Yeah, of course you are. All right, so let's do that.
53:06
Let's drop. Count me out at this point.
53:09
Boom, Make it a little easier for us, all right?
53:14
So we're up to 5, right? We have room for four more, and
53:20
there's 1234. There's four more threes.
53:27
Next. Question is so holy touch is a
53:32
three Church of Rock'n'roll. That's the only one that got
53:39
this far from that record. Do we care enough about album
53:44
representation that that should go through, that should carry it
53:47
through at this point? I mean, I think if I just cut
53:51
something from the South title to make room for other albums,
53:55
then you have to. Yeah.
53:59
All right. So let's go, yeah.
54:01
I holy touch I'd fight for. I really want that song to go
54:04
All right, so let's. Grab holy touch, which will
54:06
bring us up to six. All right, so now we're looking
54:11
at a dangerous man, unstoppable and killing it.
54:17
And then if at this point I feel like if we want to bring Only
54:22
Way to My heart back in, we probably have to lose another
54:28
self-titled, don't we? Probably, yeah, because we'd.
54:36
Be reintroducing a self-titled to do it right.
54:41
And I am willing to get rid of a different song for the only way.
54:45
It is my favorite song of the entire thing.
54:48
I love it. I'd let killing it go.
54:52
Yeah, I. I I was going to say I'd let
54:54
killing it go, OK? Peter, you all right with
54:58
losing, killing it at this point?
55:01
Kill it, kill it. All right, And then we will
55:05
officially go ahead and pass only way to my heart through
55:08
boom and boom. I love that song, it's awesome.
55:17
All right, and then we've got do we just go ahead and put
55:21
dangerous man in unstoppable through to bring us up to our 9?
55:27
I'm fine with that. Yeah.
55:31
All right. Boom and boom.
55:33
That does take my final say off the table, which means I have to
55:39
rethink here. Is there one?
55:43
Yeah. I was gonna pick a dangerous man
55:46
cuz I Oh. Oh, that's not what I was
55:48
thinking. You were thinking, Yeah.
55:51
I oh. Yeah, maybe you're thinking what
55:53
I'm thinking now, hopefully. Maybe.
55:58
Let's see. Well, now it's.
56:01
Killing now I. Don't actually you know what
56:05
this is one that I had on on my first pass.
56:07
It only got a 2. I don't want to go into the bin.
56:11
You guys know I don't like doing that.
56:14
I'm going to go with yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
56:17
Yes, that's the one I wanted. That's the one I thought you
56:20
were going to go with. I'm very happy with that.
56:23
I'm fine with that, yeah. Well, good, because you don't
56:27
have a say you. Don't have a choice?
56:33
I was unnecessarily rude about it, but that is.
56:35
But it is true. All right, I'll say.
56:38
And it's because I won the spoils.
56:42
To the rich go the spoils or whatever the saying is.
56:44
All right, I'm going to run this down.
56:45
I'm glad. I'm glad I won because you won
56:49
because that. I love that song.
56:51
I was I honestly was shocked it didn't get a three, but because
56:55
it got a 2, that's the one that kind of jumped up very, very
56:59
next after Dangerous Man. So all right, I'm going to run
57:03
this down and then we will have hopefully probably a short
57:07
discussion about what the number one is.
57:09
All right, so we're going to start Oh Lord, the Rocketeer
57:12
wannabe Angel. It's the end of the it's not the
57:14
end of the world. No, don't shoot.
57:16
Holy touch a dangerous man, unstoppable, the only way to my
57:19
heart. And yes, yes, yes, I'll I'll
57:23
frame it this way because in this is a real question.
57:26
If somebody really does have another song I'm I'm absolutely
57:30
open to hearing it. Is it a song other than Oh Lord
57:33
Peter? No.
57:37
What do you think, Chris? Yeah, I'm.
57:40
No, it's not. I would posit that wannabe Angel
57:45
would be a contender, but but it's but no, it's it's Oh, Lord,
57:52
yeah. Oh.
57:53
Lord deserves the first place spot.
57:55
It is awesome. And again.
57:57
It's not just because it was on Peacemaker.
58:01
Jules has not seen Pacemaker. Peacemaker.
58:03
She won't until I allow her to because damn I.
58:08
Did not I did not know Peacemaker existed until you
58:12
guys started talking about it today.
58:14
So it's. It's gotten to the point where I
58:17
don't think about Peacemaker when I listen to it now, right?
58:20
Like, yeah, it's, it's, it's transcended that, yeah.
58:23
Right it. It's such a good song.
58:25
He wrote it for his kid. Oh, oh, it's so good.
58:29
I didn't know that. No, I mean it makes sense but I
58:32
didn't his his. Son Julia.
58:33
Julia is who he's singing. Yeah, yeah.
58:36
I mean, it makes sense. I just didn't I didn't do the
58:41
math for that. So all right, well, I mean,
58:44
good. So like that checks million
58:48
boxes off. And it also does happen to RIP
58:51
and be intro to Peacemaker. So like on top of everything
58:55
we've said. So all right, so Oh Lord is our
58:58
number one, the rocketeer wannabe Angel.
59:00
It's not the end of the world. No, don't shoot holy touch a
59:03
dangerous man unstoppable. The only way to my heart and
59:06
yes, yes, yes rounds out our ten with that let's let O Lord get a
59:10
moment in the sun. Perfect When the fangs sick sink
59:22
in. Boom, that's a good.
59:25
Fucking song. I'm going to.
59:27
Have. Like.
59:29
Another revolution with this song now listening to it,
59:32
knowing it's about his son again, yes that it makes sense
59:36
when you kind of hear what the lyrics are, but like now I'm
59:40
going to tune in knowing that it which is going to take it to
59:43
another level. I mean, this is what I'm saying
59:46
about this band is there's there's stuff there like there's
59:50
depth, there's it. It is awesome because it does
59:55
fit. The meme of that intro in the
59:58
dance sequence is awesome. It really is.
1:00:00
And if that's what it's going to take to get you to open the open
1:00:04
your eyes and ears to the band, then so be it.
1:00:07
But also there's more to them than that.
1:00:10
And I also feel like them being that peacemaker band isn't even
1:00:17
detrimental. Like I didn't feel that way
1:00:19
about Wigwam either, even though ultimately.
1:00:22
Do you want to taste? It is kind of like the best they
1:00:25
had to offer. I don't I don't feel that way
1:00:29
with Foxy Shazam. I feel like there's a depth to
1:00:32
this and it's it. This is a band worth really
1:00:34
worth exploring. So and more more than just fun,
1:00:38
like Wigwam was fun, but like Foxy has has more to them and
1:00:45
more Abe's kind of said. That this is one of his favorite
1:00:47
bands. Yeah, hey.
1:00:50
All right, there you go. I got some.
1:00:52
Stuff to say about me and James Gunn in after the fact.
1:00:56
You Patreon people? Yeah.
1:00:59
You listen to that patreon.com/show?
1:01:01
Hi Justin Dollar a month gets you in the door.
1:01:04
It does get you that after the fact conversation, if you want
1:01:07
to kick up to $5, that would be super appreciative.
1:01:09
Look, I get it like if if that pitch right there says man, I
1:01:13
can't, I get it. But if you can, it would be
1:01:16
super duper helpful in in the trying time.
1:01:18
If you understand, if you will, $5 gets you a little extra.
1:01:24
It gets you some stuff in Discord, mostly some different
1:01:29
channels. But at the $1.00 level, you get
1:01:31
the invite, automatic invite to the Discord, you get after the
1:01:34
fact. You get deprogrammed before the
1:01:36
rest of the world. All that stuff goes right to the
1:01:39
Patreon. We are a podcast, subscribing
1:01:41
rate and commenting are all the ways that you can help us in the
1:01:44
algorithm as it were. Share, share, share.
1:01:48
It is definitely care, care, care.
1:01:51
And honestly, to me, the best way you can help the show is by
1:01:53
telling somebody that you listen to it.
1:01:55
Hey, I listen to Deprogrammed and you should too.
1:01:59
And with that, Foxy Shazam where I'm in love with people, will
1:02:02
see you next.
