Don Lemon, Moonwalks, and Pop: Super Bowl Madness Won't Stop · Rik and that Michele Chick

0:01
Welcome to Rick and That Michelle Chick, the weekly
0:05
podcast where your hosts, Rick and Michelle, confidently dive
0:10
into topics they know absolutely nothing about and somehow make
0:15
it sound legit. They're not experts.
0:17
They're not qualified. Honestly, they barely googled
0:20
it. So grab a drink, lower your
0:23
expectations, and let's pretend this counts as content.
0:28
So buckle up. Facts are optional, but the
0:31
bullshit? That's premium grade.
0:34
This is Rick and that Michelle chick.
0:41
OK, big question. Did you watch Saturday Night
0:45
Live over the weekend? Oh, so here's what I did,
0:49
Michelle. I popped it.
0:50
I got out the old VCR, got out the video cassette tape.
0:54
I thought it was such a momentous show that I, I had to
0:57
record it because I was so excited about it and to, to save
1:00
it forever, you know, yes. And well, it was the one
1:04
thousandth episode and so people were complaining.
1:09
My Alexander Skarsgard hosting should be someone like Tina Fey,
1:13
right? With Paul?
1:13
Wow, I don't care. He's your, he's your guy.
1:20
You were you were sitting there drooling all the whole the whole
1:22
hour. I mean, I probably was like
1:24
smiling from like ear to ear like a schoolgirl.
1:27
And yes, I watched it at 8:30 and then I watched it again at
1:30
11:30. So it was great.
1:33
I loved it. His dad, Stellen Skarsgard made
1:36
an appearance that it was hilarious and also his good
1:39
friend. I I I'm not sure his name.
1:42
I think it's a Jack but I could be completely wrong so don't
1:46
like quote me on that. But he was also he made an
1:49
appearance. He's in murderbot with him and
1:52
he also hosts a show. I can't.
1:55
It's like the Zillow house show shit.
1:57
It's like escaping my mind at this time.
1:59
But you can Google it and figure it out yourself.
2:02
I don't have to tell you something.
2:03
It'd be, it'd be awesome to be married to you.
2:06
I'm home for the weekend. I'm gone all week long.
2:09
I only have like basically 18 hours and maybe maybe 18 hours
2:13
if I'm lucky with my wife. And here we are watching
2:15
Alexander Skarsgard twice, not just once.
2:19
And you know, I, I was just thinking about poor Jay over
2:22
there, you know, while you're while you're licking the TV, you
2:26
know, he. Was like sitting next to me like
2:29
Oh my God I can't believe she's making me watch this.
2:32
I mean. He could have got it done
2:33
something else. He didn't have to sit there and
2:35
watch it with me, no. I did it.
2:36
Oh, because he's a good he's a good, caring, kind husband and
2:39
he's. Supporting Support this world I
2:41
was watching. Now, now you don't, you don't
2:45
have a TV or T Well, I know TiVo is long gone, but do you, do you
2:48
have a background recorder or anything?
2:51
No. So you didn't?
2:52
Record it spectrum. So it would have been the DVR,
2:55
right? We.
2:55
Yeah, DVR, right? Yeah.
2:57
We don't have that like added feature to Spectrum because it's
3:00
like, why? I mean, I could go back.
3:02
I'm sure I could go back and watch it.
3:04
It's all over YouTube I. Demand on spectrum.
3:07
I could, like, watch it over and over and over and over and over.
3:10
Yeah, that nice thing about the nice thing about today's
3:12
technology, you can find almost any recording anytime.
3:16
And watch them over. So, so you got your fix.
3:22
It was like she was like, she was like this.
3:24
Yeah, it was great. Get me, get me lined up for the
3:27
he has. Such a great sense of humor.
3:29
So it was so good to finally see him on Saturday Night Live.
3:33
Like this is the first time he's hosted, so yeah.
3:36
Yeah. And then I was thinking, OK,
3:38
like, I I love him. I love Pedro Pascal and I love
3:41
Tom Ellis. Who's going to be in that new
3:43
CIA show? On CBS talking something I'm
3:46
excited about. Yeah, I know.
3:48
But you know, I don't watch any of those shows like the CSI,
3:51
like the FBI, the blue. And now I'm going to have to
3:54
watch the CIA. Yes, yes, I'm going to have to
3:57
watch the CIA show. And I was in my mind, I was
4:00
thinking, OK, like the three of them, how would I, like, rank
4:03
them in order? And it would be Alex, of course,
4:07
at #1. So he's your number one?
4:09
But then who would be too, because I love Pedro Pascal and
4:12
I love Tom Ellis. Like Tom Ellis has that great
4:15
British accent and I loved him and Lucifer.
4:19
I think from, I think Pedro. Pascal I I don't.
4:22
I mean, I get you love, Pedro. Pascal.
4:24
But to me, I'm going to go with Tom Ellis.
4:27
I mean, if I'm going. To put a second.
4:28
If I'm going to hit it and quit it, I'm going to go Tom Ellis.
4:31
Tom Ellis is a good Yeah, I mean, I'm one of those people
4:35
that that I am man enough I can recognize when a guy is good
4:39
looking when a. Guy is.
4:41
Gorgeous George Clooney to me, if I, if I, if, if, if my hair
4:44
goes, I want to have the pepper grey.
4:46
The whole George Clooney look, I think, I think George Clooney
4:49
is, at least for me, a good looking guy.
4:52
So if you're talking for me between, you know, Pedro Pascal
4:56
and Tom Ellis, I got to go with Lucifer, man.
4:59
And I'm excited for that show because I do like those kind of
5:01
shows. So I'm excited for that show and
5:03
I will watch it. Of all the CIA ones.
5:05
I will watch that one because I'm very curious to see him
5:08
outside of the Lucifer persona. Yes, to see how he acts, because
5:12
again, it's not the same character.
5:14
He's been in other stuff though too, since Lucifer.
5:18
Yeah, there was something. He's on.
5:21
I love. I only know Lucifer, but I think
5:23
it'd be great to see him. Yeah, it'll be great to see him
5:25
in the starring role. I'm super, I'm super excited
5:27
now. Now, as you already know, that
5:30
production has had some issues, a lot of Co stars coming and
5:32
going, show runners coming and going.
5:34
So I'm hoping it's going to be a good, good series, and I hope
5:37
it's not tanked right off the beginning.
5:38
OK, well, I didn't know any of that.
5:40
So yeah, I just know he's in the show and it's CIA, that's all.
5:43
I. Know about it?
5:44
Yeah. Do a little quick thing.
5:45
Co stars have quit. Different things have quit.
5:48
Things have happened, you know, off to a off to a rocky start.
5:51
But again, that doesn't mean it's not going to be a hit.
5:53
It is part of the CIA, that whole Dick Wolf and all that
5:57
franchise. So it'll be, yeah, I think it'll
6:00
be fine. So basically it's like a 911
6:03
spin off, like 911 Nashville. Oh my gosh.
6:06
So, so let's talk about 911 just really super quick.
6:09
So the, the original 911 is, is, is pretty good.
6:12
Now. Now I, I am notorious Michelle.
6:15
I am one of those people that I will watch something when it's
6:17
hot, like for two seconds and then and then I'll watch the
6:21
first, first season or whatever and then I'll get bored with it.
6:24
So there's so many shows like let's say Grey's Anatomy.
6:27
I love the first Four Seasons of Grey's Anatomy.
6:30
And then for me, once they start mixing in different characters
6:33
or people come and start coming and going.
6:35
Or people die. Your favorite character dies.
6:38
Or any of those situations for me, like we talked about Walking
6:41
Dead when Rick left, I'm like, OK, I mean, I and then I watched
6:44
the next episode, I'm like, OK, I'm out.
6:46
So, so for me, that's the. So for me, I'm always infamous
6:49
that I'll always try out a show first, especially like the CIA
6:53
or I want to see what the first episode is and then I bail.
6:55
So for me, 911, they have a Nashville version.
6:59
Did you watch? Did you watch?
7:00
No, I've not watched. And I got brought into 911
7:04
thanks to my daughter Shaylee last last year.
7:08
So I've only been watching 911 for maybe two years.
7:13
And so a lot of the times she has to fill me in on some of the
7:16
back story stuff because I'm watching it going what, what,
7:20
wait, what? What's going on?
7:22
And so so now I'm watching it like the last couple weeks I've
7:27
been watching it, but now she isn't watching it.
7:29
And I'm and we would we used, we used to watch it together.
7:32
It was like the one bonding thing that I could get her to do
7:35
with me. And now she's kind of like, I
7:38
think after the spoiler alert, after they killed Bobby off, I
7:42
think she kind of was, you know, I don't want to watch this
7:45
anymore kind of thing, kind of like you so.
7:50
Yeah, it was kind of so so there's 911 then they they was
7:53
911 Lone Star, which had Rob Lowe, which was good to watch.
7:56
I watched that. I I enjoyed that for a little
7:59
bit and then I thought, OK, I'll give the 911 Nashville a a time
8:02
a shot. And the debut was it was good.
8:04
It was good. I enjoyed it.
8:05
It had LeAnn Rimes like as A and.
8:07
Kim, Willie Paisley. Groupie and stuff and I'm like,
8:10
OK, this is too weird. And then it had Kane Brown,
8:13
which is kind of cool. Kane Kane Brown was saving
8:14
people. But then I realized, man, this
8:16
is schlocky, OK? So I was thinking to myself, how
8:19
many times can something hit Nashville?
8:22
Yes, yeah, yeah. It's kind of like I'm really if
8:26
you, if you want a good looking dude, Michelle, you should watch
8:31
the show Fire Country. Oh, I mean, I've seen, I've seen
8:35
the that. Firefighter there, but yeah, he
8:37
isn't. Watched it.
8:39
So yeah, so I enjoyed the the first couple seasons of fire
8:42
fire country and then it's branched off to sheriff country,
8:46
which I'm really enjoying. I'm like I'm really loving the
8:48
spin off. And then isn't there a like
8:50
Marshalls? But is that?
8:51
Oh, that's. Coming to.
8:52
Start. Or is that from the fire
8:54
country? So, so Marshalls is coming from
8:56
the guy who got you gave you Yellowstone.
8:58
Oh, OK. And land man, right?
9:01
Yeah. Oh, Ted or Sheridan.
9:03
Yes, yeah. I'm super excited.
9:05
I'm super excited. Or.
9:06
Taylor. Isn't his name Taylor?
9:07
Oh, Taylor, I'm sorry, Taylor Tyler, but I love, I love, I
9:13
love. I like it looks good.
9:14
Marshalls I like this, but we've talked about I kind of like
9:17
those kind of shows. I'm I I am.
9:19
A lot of people don't realize how much of A dude I really am
9:21
because I like procedural shows. I like action shows, comedy.
9:26
I I enjoy comedy but it's never my like what I watch a lot of.
9:32
So, you know, I think like now the Sorry, sorry, the comedy.
9:36
Now Matthew will tell us to watch a show.
9:39
It was the The Good Place with Ted Danson and.
9:44
Kristen Bell, Yeah. But I did not like the humor.
9:47
Matthew will tell us certain shows, yes, what?
9:50
And I'll be like, I don't really just like The Office.
9:53
I could not get into The Office. I know it's this super popular
9:56
show, but I just couldn't. Some of the humor.
9:59
I'm just like, I can't sit through this.
10:02
So it's interesting that you mentioned that because for me
10:04
the the good place is absolutely awesome.
10:08
It really is that good. We have different and the office
10:11
for me is great until, until Steve Carell leaves.
10:14
So I'm, I'm, I'm always one of those people like the first few
10:17
seasons, like, oh, I'm into it. And then the by the 3rd or 4th I
10:19
got, OK, I'm out, I'm out. So, so I, I've never been, it's
10:24
it's hard for me to get through all seasons of anything.
10:28
Have you ever watched a series and seen every episode of it?
10:32
Yeah, True Blood. OK, there's a great example.
10:35
OK, no, I know how much you love True Blood, so there's a there's
10:37
a great example. It is hard for me.
10:39
Let's say a show has seven season.
10:41
Yeah, it's hard for me to get through.
10:43
I, I generally get bored and I'm out within the first couple of
10:46
seasons or, or like a good book, I'll sneak ahead and see what
10:50
happens. And then I go, oh, they got
10:51
married. Or or.
10:53
Somebody died or blah blah blah. I'm like, OK, now I'm I.
10:56
It kind of ruined it for me. Now you can just take audio book
10:59
and Fast forward to the end of the audio book now.
11:02
So I mean. I, I'm, I'm infamous for that
11:05
even when it comes to, even when it comes to movies, I'm like,
11:07
yeah, just give me the spoilers, let me know what happened.
11:09
So then and then so I go to the movies and like, I'm not really
11:12
that surprised because like I already, I already read about
11:14
it. Which yeah, we talked about that
11:15
when we were discussing Fantastic Four and how you said
11:18
you already knew like everything.
11:21
And when you go to concerts, you look up the set list so that you
11:24
know which I do that sometimes, but I'm not like, I will not do
11:28
that with like movies or whatever.
11:30
I don't. I just want to go and check out
11:33
for a while. As Megan tells me, Wikipedia is
11:36
not reading, but I do read a lot of Wikipedia, so.
11:40
And it's not always true either. You have to be careful.
11:43
You have to be careful for. Me, I do use it a lot for for
11:46
like you said, episode guides or I'll be like, oh, what's this
11:49
new TV show? And I'll read through a couple
11:51
of the synopsis and Oh yeah, do I like it or I don't like it.
11:56
During COVID, you know, when there weren't a lot of shows on,
12:01
Yeah, I went through and rewatched True Blood, which has
12:04
seven seasons, and I watched like every single episode
12:08
because there's nothing else to watch either, so I might as well
12:10
watch something I like, so. You get get through it.
12:14
Yeah, Going back to Tom Ellis, I'll give.
12:16
I'll put him in second place for if you want.
12:18
OK, OK, there you go. OK, that's that that.
12:21
Helps. Does that settle it?
12:22
Yeah. Thank you.
12:23
What's? What's the deal before we get to
12:25
the next subject? OK, I do have to ask, because I
12:28
have to ask about Pedro Pascal. I do like his stuff.
12:31
I enjoy him. I I can't imagine it being a
12:35
physical attraction thing. Why?
12:38
Why do you say that? Like he, he's handsome?
12:41
Like, is he? Do you not think he is?
12:45
Not when you're talking, not when you're talking.
12:48
I don't know, I mean. I mean, he's not as tall as
12:51
Alexander Skarsgard. It's not.
12:53
Tall. It's good looking.
12:55
He is good looking. I don't know.
12:57
And he has a good sense of humor, and I think he's good
13:00
looking. I'll take a poll on this.
13:03
Yeah, because I think you're going to be shocked.
13:05
I think I've seen him. I, I, so I, I mean, I, the, the
13:09
cool thing about Pedro Pascal, which I will give him credit,
13:11
man, talk about a guy who's paid his dues.
13:14
Because it's so funny when you go back and watch old TV shows
13:17
of whatever there he is like in in a side character role.
13:21
I mean, earning his due, which I do.
13:23
I love. I love characters that you're
13:24
like, oh, this guy's suddenly popular.
13:26
Oh, he's overnight sensation. No, he's been working in the
13:29
bits 20 plus years and you see him on all these TV shows and
13:32
all these bit parts. I just, I don't know from a
13:34
physicality. I don't, I mean, I don't get it.
13:38
Like like you want to see him without a shirt on?
13:40
You're not attracted to him, so your question is.
13:43
I'm not. Do you want to see him without a
13:44
shirt? Yeah, is that even a real
13:48
question? I don't get it when you when you
13:52
put them against the three you just mentioned.
13:53
I'm like I. Don't know the two and other
13:57
two, yeah. Yes, I'm like, you know, I get,
14:00
I get Tarzan, I get. Lucifer, which he did.
14:03
Alexander did do a skit of him being Tarzan, and so he just had
14:07
a little loincloth. Yeah.
14:09
Yeah, that made your day. OK.
14:10
All right. OK.
14:11
Yeah, so I so I will, I will admit that yes, I've seen both
14:14
of them men shirtless, but I've not seen Pedro.
14:18
I'll find a picture and send it to you.
14:20
I guess it's I guess it's because I've seen him in the in
14:23
the comic book movie. So I saw him in Wonder Woman
14:25
where he was the bad guy Maxwell Lord.
14:27
And then I saw him in in Fantastic Four, so I really
14:30
don't have a great reference, I guess in terms of sexiness.
14:34
OK, well I'll send you a picture and then we can we'll settle it.
14:37
OK, we beat this topic to death. Let's move on.
14:40
A bunch of stuff happened on Friday of last week, which our
14:44
new episodes always drop on Thursday.
14:47
And so there's a lot of stuff I wanted to go back and talk
14:50
about. Obviously Catherine O'Hara died.
14:53
That was crushing to me because I loved her as Moira and she I
14:59
love. I want to be, when I get a
15:00
little bit older, I want to be a combination of Moira from
15:04
Schitt's Creek and Jennifer Coolidge.
15:06
Like that's, I want to be like a combination of those two as an
15:09
old lady. I think that would be fabulous,
15:10
so. She she's.
15:12
So sad. I was like, no.
15:15
She's amazing and I love the fact that if you see or her in
15:19
other movies like best to show, when you're talking about humor,
15:21
when you talk about quirky humor, there's movies like the
15:25
second wind, Second Wind or the Mighty, I'm sorry, it's Mighty
15:29
Wind. And and like you said, best in
15:33
show, very quirky comedies. She's always in them and she's
15:37
always. Even like Beetlejuice, her
15:39
character, yeah. Well, yeah, she's fantastic.
15:41
Yeah, she's fat. Yeah.
15:42
She's. Yeah, she's amazing.
15:44
And then what? Macaulay Culkin said.
15:47
He can bring you to tears. With what?
15:48
He said. I know I got all like teary eyed
15:51
when they were reading his statement and I was.
15:54
Like, no, I, I got to say, for I am most impressed by Macaulay
15:59
Culkin these days. Married to Brenda and they've
16:02
got kids. He's totally like before he used
16:05
to shun any spotlight. Like what?
16:07
So what? You just never saw him.
16:08
He shunned it. Duh, duh, duh, duh.
16:10
Now it's cool to see him do interviews and talk about
16:13
because everybody has this opinion that he hates home alone
16:16
and all these different things and he doesn't, he doesn't think
16:19
that at all. He's like, no, it is a great
16:21
different things. And so I love that you start
16:24
seeing him, you know, out and about more.
16:27
Right. Yeah.
16:28
And, and his, yeah, his, his, his comments were amazing.
16:31
Yeah, yeah. And then I told my husband, you
16:33
know, after the Seahawks won the playoff game that sent them to
16:37
the Super Bowl, I told him I said watch, they're going to put
16:42
them up for sale. Do you believe that?
16:46
Jody, they just, they just announced it on Friday.
16:48
We're talking about stuff that happened on Friday.
16:50
But but, but then they just, but they just released over the
16:53
weekend an announcement saying it is not up for sale.
16:56
Well, they said, they said that per Paul Allen's wishes in his
17:01
will, that it's inevitable. And so my thought after.
17:06
This one, it is one for sale, but not as quick as people are
17:09
saying. That they're going to go to the
17:11
soup. They're so they're going to be
17:12
worth more money. Like I would want to sell them
17:15
go, you know, you got to go out on top and make the most money
17:17
as possible. I get it.
17:19
They've already sold the Trail Blazers, so I get it.
17:22
But it's sad, but this is inevitable.
17:25
This is bound to half and we know this is going to happen.
17:28
It's in his wishes or will or whatever it is and so plus when
17:33
the. NFL is pushing for I don't know
17:35
why the NFL is pushing for it and I.
17:36
Don't know if. You realize that it as as per
17:39
the trust, when they do sell the Seahawks, it all goes to
17:43
charity. It's not it's not like it's
17:44
going. I mean, well, number one, you
17:47
know, Joe Jody's wealthy beyond you know what I'm saying,
17:49
because of her brother. But but it's not like it like it
17:53
goes to some rich bill. I mean, I at least like that.
17:56
Well, that's what I was going to say.
17:57
People were comparing the Patriots owner to to her, the
18:03
Seahawks owner and how like she's just so much more
18:07
charitable. And was it is it the owner?
18:10
Wait, isn't the owner of of the Patriots like the guy that was
18:15
the massage craft, the happy ending guy?
18:17
Right, That's the massage guy. That's Robert Kraft.
18:20
Yeah, that's Robert Kraft. I.
18:21
Just realized that. I'm sorry.
18:23
I just realized that in like. Real time.
18:25
That's the guy. That's the Patriots guy, you
18:27
know, Give me some. Right.
18:32
And so here's this, you know, this person that donates, you
18:35
know, look at Paul Allen's entire life and charity and
18:38
everything that he's done, right.
18:41
So it's a no brainer that when they do sell them, it would all
18:45
go to charity. And that's for.
18:47
Me, I, I for me. I mean, I just look at it like
18:51
like Bill Gates and and Jody Allen is so Seattle, you know
18:54
what I'm saying? Like you'd want it to stay
18:57
there. Do you really want, do you
18:58
really want? Well, some people are saying
19:00
Jeff Bezos, you know. No, I don't want him to buy
19:03
them. Either I you know, it's like,
19:06
yeah, so it's you know, there's a great, there's an old great
19:08
saying battle to to battle the devil, you know that the devil
19:11
you don't. And so if you so it's like, I
19:14
think it'd be sad to see, you know, the Seahawks sell.
19:19
Well, there's other like there's a board of owners, like it's not
19:23
just her that owns them, right? Or whatever it's called.
19:26
I don't know if it's the board, but so couldn't they?
19:29
Like, what if one of them was like, hey, you know, like, I
19:32
still want to like have the Seahawks, so I'll buy you out.
19:37
Like couldn't one of them do that or.
19:39
If you got $8 billion, it's eight.
19:42
It's 8 billion is the, it's the, you know, it's the fourth.
19:44
Going offer until they win the Super Bowl and then it's 8
19:48
billion. Dollars.
19:49
Yeah, exactly. So they're the they're the 14th
19:51
most expensive, believe it or not, the 14th most expensive
19:54
franchise in the NFL. They're not even number one.
19:57
I think you already know who number one is in the NFL
19:59
franchise. Would that be the Patriots?
20:02
We're the Cowboys? I'm sorry, I know I noticed your
20:05
shirt and I'm like your. Cowboys.
20:08
Cowboys is the number one, is the number one.
20:11
I think it's worth like 21 billion or something like that.
20:14
You know, because even though we suck and lose, people love the
20:17
merch. Yeah.
20:20
So, but yes, 8 billion if the Seahawks go, I, I, I don't know,
20:23
I, I, I like the ownership. I hope it doesn't go but.
20:27
No, I'm not saying I wanted to go.
20:29
I just knew that this was that's what they're coming down the
20:32
tracks and so. And now and now we'll see who's
20:34
a liar because at because they did release a statement saying
20:37
she says in time it will sell. You know, that's yes, the wishes
20:41
of the will or the trust, yes, but she's not.
20:43
But she's not saying right after the Super Bowl.
20:45
So we'll be curious if they do win if she does flip around and
20:48
sell. Right.
20:49
OK. Well, like I said, I'd want to
20:52
sell high. And then on Friday, journalist
20:57
Don Lemon was arrested, which was crazy to me because he was
21:03
reporting on the protest in Minnesota.
21:08
And it's kind of a little bit scary that they are arresting
21:10
journalists now. And I did see him on Jimmy
21:15
Kimmel last night talking a little bit about it.
21:17
What? What were you going to say?
21:19
I it it what do you you act like you're surprised anymore I any
21:23
of these things. I'm not surprised.
21:24
It's it's. Kind of a not I mean.
21:27
It's cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs out there.
21:29
What are you talking about? I mean.
21:31
It's, I did see that, like they had shopped around trying to
21:35
arrest him to like two different judges and something else.
21:40
And finally a grand jury did, which the joke, the running joke
21:43
is like a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich.
21:46
Like you don't need a lot of evidence.
21:48
You need that evidence want you to once you go to court.
21:51
So you better darn well have that evidence.
21:53
So yeah, we'll kind of see how this plays out on Jimmy Kimmel.
21:57
He couldn't really, you know, obviously legally he couldn't
22:00
talk about certain things and so he was just kind of restricted
22:03
on what he could and couldn't say.
22:05
But I think this is going to make his show even more popular
22:09
now. I mean, his YouTube show, this
22:12
is like free great press for him.
22:15
I I mean, I'm going to watch him more now, so.
22:18
But I do I I and again, I'm a I'm a huge fan of Don Lemon.
22:22
But but I mean, I don't know, entering a church like to
22:28
disrupt the service. I mean, it's not not that he'd
22:30
necessarily need to be arrested for it, but I mean, I don't
22:34
know, it's like I'm kind of but he.
22:38
But he didn't. But he wasn't.
22:40
He was reporting on what was. Going on, I know he followed the
22:43
protesters in. Right, he.
22:45
Followed a man and got. Arrested.
22:47
And he says like in his reporting, I'm reporting on the
22:51
protest. It's not like he's like I'm
22:53
participating or. I get it.
22:55
But that but that's the that's the, that's the struggle we're
22:58
having right now because they're going to shoot at anybody,
23:01
anything and anybody, you know what I'm saying?
23:02
No matter what and what you know, And it's like, yeah, I
23:07
mean, and then and then they're, I mean, no one, no one at this
23:10
time is being held accountable for anything.
23:12
So if Don Lennon, if Don Lemon got shot, you know, the
23:17
administration, we would be dancing the jig.
23:19
And they call it, they call him a terrorist.
23:21
And. He deserved it.
23:23
He didn't comply and he was in the wrong.
23:25
You know why? Why do the blah blah, blah,
23:27
blah, blah, blah? It's all like you said, it's all
23:29
excuses. Yeah, yeah.
23:32
To just to justify homicide. Right.
23:35
I mean, regardless of whether you agree or disagree with Don
23:39
Lemon, arresting journalist is a slippery slope that we've
23:42
already gone down. We're down the slide like 1000
23:46
times over. Announcement that that there's
23:49
talk of that, that Trump has said that they should take the
23:53
votes nationwide or some, you know, I'm saying they should
23:55
nationalize the, the voting in states or whatever.
23:59
Like what you know, it state, it states handle voting, not, not
24:03
the federal level. And so, yeah, I mean, I mean,
24:07
it's, it's all like you said, it's all, it's all a grift.
24:10
And different states have different voting laws and that
24:15
kind of stuff. And so it's not all going to be
24:18
the same. So when you see something in
24:20
Georgia is something different than Colorado, well, yeah,
24:22
that's because the states regulate their own elections and
24:25
they all have different rules and laws, and they govern
24:29
themselves. And unless Congress makes a
24:32
blanket law, then that's how it's going to be so.
24:35
Do you do you think, do you think the president just says
24:39
shit to get people riled up and that he has no, I well, we know
24:42
and he has no idea what he's talking about.
24:44
So he'll just say shit and then people it'll make the news.
24:47
That's one thing you got. I think that's one thing that I
24:50
was really, I've been reading through the years is, you know,
24:53
he doesn't really care what he says as long as he makes the
24:55
news cycle. Yes, he's very good at which if
25:00
you've watched any of the documentaries about him in the
25:02
past, he was the one that would call up like The Enquirer or
25:07
well, he's good friends with the owner of The Enquirer or
25:10
whatever it is and leak stories about himself.
25:13
Because he knew that like, regardless of bad, good press,
25:17
like any press is going to keep you in the limelight and keep
25:21
your, you valuable as a brand. And he knew that early on.
25:25
And so he would use that to his advantage.
25:27
So yeah, I could see him saying stuff purposely because he
25:31
knows. He knows, you know, he knows he
25:33
can't do something. I got to, I got to say I've
25:36
become a fan of Marjorie Taylor Green of all people.
25:39
Like, why would I be a fan of her?
25:41
Her last one? What'd she just say?
25:43
That the MAGA was all a lie. And for the first year, all he
25:47
did was try to satisfy the wealthiest of donors, which he's
25:52
AI mean. That's a narcissist.
25:54
I mean, that is why, why would that, why would that not
25:57
surprise people? I mean, it's like he he's one of
26:00
the, you know, it's so funny is I do understand his way of
26:05
thinking because many years ago, I do understand because many
26:11
years ago, Cheryl, when I was a program director at a radio
26:14
station or operations manager, we had a consultant that did not
26:18
care for me. And so I said, and so I told
26:21
her, I said, well, I really don't, I really don't care for
26:23
him. Like that consultant.
26:24
I don't care for that consultant.
26:26
And she goes, well, why don't you care for that consultant?
26:28
Because, well, he don't like me, so why should I like him?
26:31
And so I kind of, not that I'm rationalizing Trump by any
26:35
means, period, but I do understand the mentality.
26:38
And she and and Cheryl goes, well, you seem to only like
26:40
people who like you. Yeah, that's yeah.
26:44
That's all of us. Like why would I like people?
26:47
Who don't like me? Like, I mean, that's, I think
26:51
that's human nature. To.
26:53
Say now, now he's on a colossal. I mean, again, you are the
26:58
sitting president and not a program director to radio
27:01
station. I mean, the list goes on and on
27:03
of the responsibility of holding that seat that I don't care if
27:08
you're Democrat, Republican, independent.
27:10
I don't care if you're a Communist Party, when you're the
27:12
president, your words mean things.
27:15
And you have, you know, you govern for the people you know
27:18
there's. A higher standard that.
27:20
You need. To live up to.
27:22
Right, exactly. And and I those, you know, so,
27:26
so you have to kind of throw out the, the well, I only like
27:29
people who like me. And that's what he says, though.
27:31
He says it in meetings where he's like, well, they don't like
27:33
the Trump. I'm like #1 he's third person.
27:35
They don't like the Trump. What the he's does it in third
27:39
person. I don't know.
27:40
Well, they don't like Rick Rick's talk anyway.
27:44
So yes, big, big news over the weekend for sure.
27:46
And I really think there was a great political cartoon I just
27:50
saw where they had a kid like they were like 5 years old and
27:53
it's Don Donald Trump and it's a little kid named Sparky.
27:57
And then and then they show Sparky like 80 years old and
28:00
he's at Walker and he's a knock on the door FBIFBI because
28:04
Donald Trump lost a coin flip when they were kids.
28:09
So they little said little kid Sparky flips a coin and goes,
28:11
Oh, I win. And then and then they flash
28:14
forward 80 years, that FBI, you win there sparking boom, boom,
28:18
boom. And he's all on a, you know,
28:19
he's handicapped and old and. They're coming for sparking.
28:23
I think that puts that parallel on, yeah.
28:27
I mean, he said he's going after all the people.
28:29
It's just a retribution tour, That's all it is.
28:31
So. He said that when he was going
28:33
to get an office. Again.
28:34
Yeah, yeah. And I think people thought he
28:37
was joking. He's just joking.
28:39
He's not joking. Whenever he says something, he's
28:42
serious. And I think was like going into
28:45
Georgia, I think he really thinks, I think his people
28:48
around him have told him, like, you, like, there was some kind
28:53
of funny stuff going on in the 2020 election and you really
28:57
won. I think like to some degree like
28:59
he either really believes it or he really wants to believe it
29:02
because he can't. He's such a narcissist that he
29:05
doesn't want to believe that he lost because narcissists hate to
29:08
lose anything. So I could see that being the
29:11
case too, is that he's such a narcissist, can't deal with the
29:13
fact that he really lost and so now he's just going to make up
29:18
and do shit or who knows. I at this.
29:22
Point who got his own press. You got his own press secretary
29:25
saying only just kidding. He's just kidding, guys.
29:27
He's just kidding. He's not.
29:28
He's not kidding at all. I mean, could you?
29:30
I could I could not have I number one, I couldn't work for
29:33
somebody like that. First off, the the I couldn't
29:36
work for that administration in any form whatsoever.
29:38
So shout out to the people who are going to be there long after
29:41
he's long gone and that's got to be quite the situation.
29:44
But it's like, just get to the next three years.
29:48
Met Michelle. Oh.
29:49
God. Well, actually.
29:50
It's going to be tough. Actually, midterms.
29:53
If he gets wiped out in the midterms, then he's then he's
29:56
sitting duck for two years. You can't, right?
29:58
That's what makes me think that they see this coming down the
30:02
tracks and so they're going to do everything they can to keep
30:05
that from happening, whatever it is.
30:08
What the midterms? What the hilarity is they?
30:11
Again, in terms of passing stuff, they really have.
30:13
I mean again, they they don't pass anything.
30:15
No, but he keeps threatening that he's going to go there.
30:19
You what? Like what you just said?
30:20
That is they're going to make it a national thing where they
30:23
control the elections. And I could see him really,
30:26
really, really trying to do this or after the elections going
30:30
into these States and taking the voting machines or seizing them
30:35
or whatever it is like I could see him trying doing that or
30:38
trying to do that or. But but as I was once taught, it
30:42
all starts at the local level. So to have the, the fact that
30:45
members of Congress and your local representative Dan
30:48
Newhouse, you know, put up with this bullshit, No, you got to
30:52
put it on the table where it belongs.
30:54
And, and, and it and Congress or the House of Representatives
30:57
now, right now, they just, they just had a special election and
31:00
I believe Texas and they lost a seat.
31:03
They lost a seat there. So they have one, they have one
31:05
seat. They cannot lose anybody else.
31:08
It cannot have a defection because for any, like any bill
31:11
they're trying to pass. So Johnson cannot have a
31:14
defection. So I mean that I guess that's
31:16
good news by the only, you know, but but it's one of those things
31:19
where it's like, why has no one in Congress shut this shit down?
31:26
Because they're scared. They're terrified of
31:27
retribution. And I think the retribution will
31:30
come when people start voting. It's well, it's already coming.
31:33
It's already. It's already happening.
31:36
I think they they don't see like, like, sure, they see all
31:40
these protesters or whatever, but they don't see the other
31:43
groundswell that is happening like this undercurrent that just
31:48
of normal everyday people, whether it's independence,
31:51
whatever it is that are seeing all this shit and horrified by
31:55
it. And they are going to make sure
31:57
that they go and vote and and change it.
31:59
And so I don't think they really, really see what's
32:02
happening on the ground level as far as normal people, not, you
32:07
know, paid protesters or whatever they're trying paint
32:10
these people to be. But I don't think they really
32:14
see like how people, people are so upset by and, and normal
32:19
people everyday people, independents, not just
32:21
Democrats. I mean, so I think they're going
32:24
to be smacked upside the head with this reality.
32:28
Well, I think. Will happen during the
32:29
elections, during the midterms. Well, as much as it drives Trump
32:33
mad, you're not on every ballot, dude.
32:37
No, I mean, and that's what he always and that's what he brags
32:40
about. Well, Trump.
32:41
Well, but that's. Also his his excuse though too.
32:44
When somebody loses is like, I wasn't on the ballot.
32:47
I wasn't. On the ballot.
32:49
So I'm looking even even for us here where we live.
32:52
Amanda McKinney just got the Trump endorsement.
32:55
You know, I don't. And there's other people running
32:58
for that position. So Jared, what was it, Jared
33:01
Sessler or whatever went against new house and lost, you know,
33:04
because, because, well, I'm Trump endorsed.
33:05
Well, if you're going to lead with your Trump endorsed, if
33:08
that's your best card, you know people's outrage is going to
33:13
vote you out. I don't I I mean here it's so
33:16
red though. I don't know.
33:18
I hope so, but. Well, look at the Dan but but go
33:21
back to the Dan Newhouse situation with even the Jared
33:23
Sessler thing. He didn't win.
33:26
No, but a lot. Of the Democrats because we
33:29
saved it, Dan yes, me too I voted for Dan Newhouse because
33:32
I'm like mother, I got to make you know what I'm saying I don't
33:35
like I mean it's. The lesser of two evils.
33:37
We didn't want Sessler the crazy.
33:40
What are Yeah, but I like I even like pointed that out.
33:44
So I called Congress. This was like, I can't remember
33:48
what was I think it was when when they were going to chop
33:53
like Medicaid and all that kind of stuff was happening.
33:55
I called Dan Newhouse's like congressional office and like
33:59
talk to one of his staffers. And I was like, look, he better
34:04
vote against this because all of us Democrats were the ones that
34:08
saved his ass in his district. Jared Sessler would have won if
34:13
we hadn't voted for him. And they were just like, OK,
34:16
I'll make a new, you know, they have to be nice to.
34:18
Me, I mean, that's. The truth, though?
34:21
Yeah, And I and, and there was something about, I believe a few
34:24
years back, Dan Newhouse said something about minimum wage.
34:26
And so I did send him a letter. He responded, or maybe his aides
34:30
responded, you know, but I sent him a letter and like, and, and
34:34
I said, you represent, you represent all of Washington, not
34:36
just, you know, people that agree with you.
34:40
Farmers that own, you know, conglomerate farms.
34:44
I mean, he did vote to impeach Trump that one time and.
34:48
That's why, and that's why they and that's why the magus call
34:51
him a rhino. Yes, and that he got super
34:54
scared and they were putting all this money behind his opponents.
34:57
Thankfully he won thanks to us Democrats.
35:00
So yeah. It's a true story.
35:01
It's it's absolutely true story. So that's her.
35:04
That's her two. Well, just, I mean, again, I
35:07
think, you know, it's like it's not in defense of Trump.
35:09
I just think he deliberately does it to be part of the the
35:11
news cycle. And he likes he likes to wake up
35:14
to a fire alarm every single day.
35:15
And I think he giggles like, I think it's like the Emperor
35:18
Nero, He giggles behind her back.
35:19
Like look at me. Right.
35:22
But it is it's exhausting to a lot of us, of course, every day,
35:26
especially those of us that have sympathy and feelings and
35:31
especially if it's hurting somebody just in America that
35:35
but day after day after day of this starts to really affect you
35:39
as a person. Absolutely.
35:41
Oh, 100%. You got it.
35:43
You know, I've actually been posting less and less on social
35:46
media because I just can't, you know?
35:48
I have been, I don't think I've opened Facebook since right
35:52
after Christmas, so. Well, So what I, So what I do is
35:56
I, I unfollow and snooze a lot of people because I, because
36:00
I've never felt people unless you are, unless you are
36:02
radically, diametrically a, a piece of crap human being, I
36:07
won't just, I won't just unfringe because you, you know,
36:09
are a Republic. I mean, that's the I, I, I don't
36:12
play, I mean, I'll play that game.
36:13
I, I think people are allowed to have the religious views and
36:16
they're allowed to have their political views, but there's a
36:18
limit in which, you know what I'm saying to where I will, I
36:22
will, I will go with it. And if you, if you get to the
36:25
point where you're just hurting people, Nope.
36:27
That you're gone, you know, so, so I do unfollow or I, I sleep a
36:31
lot of people. Yeah.
36:33
And I'm sure they do the same back at us.
36:34
I mean, I get it. Oh yeah, or or.
36:36
Actually, I've been deleted quite a bit too.
36:38
So but I but I, but I have purposely stayed away from
36:41
religion and politics because I look at it like, well, if you
36:44
know me, you already know what I'm about.
36:45
There should be no there should, there should be no great area of
36:48
like of like how same as you, Michelle.
36:50
I don't think anybody comes to your Facebook to get politics
36:52
from you. No.
36:54
And we both know that even if we post things political, it's not
36:58
going to change anybody's mind. It doesn't posting something or
37:01
sharing something, it's not going to change anybody's mind.
37:06
No one. It just isn't.
37:08
So so we're back to the the fun ChatGPT making yourself into a
37:11
caricature now. So that's the new, that's.
37:13
The new is it again. I haven't been on there.
37:15
I haven't opened. It the new buzz right now is you
37:18
go to ChatGPT and you ask Chat GPTA to make a caricature of
37:23
what of of what ChatGPT thinks you are.
37:27
Oh, I had it a while back. This has been a couple months
37:30
ago where you post a picture of your cat and you have ChatGPT
37:34
make your cat into a human and so we have Thor our cute.
37:39
We have Thor our one eyed foster fail.
37:42
He's orange. I'll send you the picture and
37:44
then I'll post it. I'll post it on our socials too,
37:47
so people can see it. I'll post a picture of Thor and
37:49
then the ChatGPT version. It's hilarious because the
37:53
person like is literally missing one eye like Thor so well of.
37:57
Course he's a real person person.
38:00
That's just funny so. It is the cat named Thor because
38:03
it's missing the eye like like. Yes, the kids named him Thor
38:06
because of that. I didn't even know Thor.
38:08
Was missing an eye. I got I love that I can I can
38:12
actually go. I get tell the kid I get that
38:14
reference, they'll know what I'm talking about.
38:16
I get that reference. Yeah, yeah.
38:18
Some people that don't understand it like me either,
38:21
and they're kind of. Like, well, it's either that or
38:22
Odin and. You know, yeah, yeah.
38:24
That was the other. Yeah, yes.
38:27
Odin. Because Odin yes, and that would
38:29
be the then that'd be the more logical because Thor has his
38:31
eyes back. So I.
38:32
Don't. OK, just.
38:34
Trying to keep you up. Just trying to keep you up on
38:36
the nerd stuff. Yeah, now I don't.
38:38
Now I don't need to watch any of those movies.
38:39
OK, thanks. But.
38:41
But I liked it. Yeah, but I like it.
38:42
Yeah, but I think Thor's a great name.
38:44
Even Odin's a good name, but Thor's a better name.
38:46
Yeah, and also on Friday. Oh, go ahead, I.
38:49
Was going to say, isn't it amazing how animal your pets
38:53
actually are their names after you decide on their name?
38:55
Yeah, yes. And if he's crazy, is Thor in
38:59
real life, in the movies? Well, not in real life, but in
39:02
the movies. Crazy like our cat or.
39:04
I just think, I just think once you pick a dog's name, you know,
39:07
like like Barkley used to be Lucky, Roxy used to be Gracie,
39:12
Phoebe was always Phoebe. And and when we got Bodie, he
39:15
was Andre. So it and then when you name
39:17
them, rename them. It's amazing how they are that
39:21
personality. Yeah, yeah.
39:24
All right, go back to Friday. We got Friday also.
39:26
Yeah, 3 million of the Epstein files got dumped on Friday.
39:30
Like everything happened on Friday.
39:32
It was just chaos. Like I was just I pinging around
39:36
like on the news and on blue sky and on the Internet because so
39:40
much was happening. What was very upsetting was how
39:45
a lot of the victims information whether that's names, pictures,
39:51
driver's license, Social Security, everything like a lot
39:54
of that was not redacted. And that was the whole excuse as
39:59
to why they were delayed in dropping these or releasing
40:04
these. And here all this information is
40:07
out about some of the victims that did not want their
40:10
information out, but they sure as shit made sure that all the
40:14
perpetrators names were redacted.
40:17
So. Isn't that crazy?
40:19
I, I was just to some degree, I think they kind of did it on
40:22
purpose as almost like you better watch it.
40:26
They're kind of blaming it on human error, but it's like, come
40:29
on. Like like there's so much that
40:32
they missed. It's like really this is human
40:35
error. I think it was kind of done on
40:37
purpose a little bit. So I know that's what I I.
40:42
Mean. And again, I'm I'm in the boat
40:44
that they all should be prosecuted.
40:46
And I don't care if it's Clinton.
40:47
I don't care if it's Trump. No, you're a part of it.
40:50
When you read, when you read through some of them, they're so
40:52
disgusting. Have you read through some of
40:56
it? I I tried.
40:57
I've read certain passages and I'm like, oh, this might makes
41:01
me want to throw up. Yeah.
41:02
Yeah, it makes. Me want to throw up, but but you
41:05
know, what angers me most about it is R Kelly, Kanye West.
41:11
I mean, we allow celebrities to get away.
41:14
Harvey Weinstein. Harvey, whatever his name is.
41:16
Weinstein, whatever his name is. We allow Matt Lauer, I mean, I
41:21
could go down this massive list of powerful, powerful men that
41:26
we allow bad behavior and and I and I wish when something
41:30
happens to somebody, I wish and I know a lot of people have
41:34
courage and I you know, I I hate the you know, that they that
41:38
they feel that somebody so powerful that they cannot say
41:42
anything ever. And I and I and then same going
41:45
to the Bill Cosby case where one person comes out and then sixty
41:48
more follow when they realize someone else had the courage and
41:52
they can. Then someone goes and then they
41:53
go, Oh my God, that happened to me because everybody thinks it's
41:57
only them, right? I mean, that's, I think that's,
42:01
I think that's the belief. I think when, you know, when,
42:04
when any celebrity or whatever happens, I think, Oh my God.
42:06
Well, maybe it's something I did and it's only and it only
42:09
happened to me because I can't imagine it being blank, blank,
42:12
blank blank. And I think it's more, I mean,
42:16
this happens just with women in general, but I think it's even
42:20
worse when it's a celebrity because then you're like, OK,
42:25
it's me against this celebrity if I do say something and
42:31
they're going to take the celebrities word over the one
42:34
person. And so I think that's the other
42:36
reason why they stay quiet until they see the first one come
42:41
first person, step forward and speak out.
42:43
And then that's why you see like multiple people then feel safe
42:47
that now they can come out because Oh yeah, this, this
42:50
other person said it. Now I can come out and say what
42:54
happened to me and not feel like it's just me against the
42:57
celebrity or me against this person.
43:00
No ones going to believe me. That happens a lot.
43:03
That happens in just everyday people.
43:06
That's why a lot of women don't don't speak up or say anything
43:09
or report rapes or anything happens to us.
43:12
Well, just in general, people are ashamed or they're
43:14
embarrassed or they they put themselves or could some people,
43:17
oh, you put yourself in that position or just you addressed.
43:19
It that way you were asking for it.
43:22
There's so. Much the list goes on.
43:24
Did you see that there was interest?
43:26
There wasn't one e-mail I will bring up that Elon Musk got shut
43:29
down when he wanted to go to the island.
43:31
They're like, yeah, sorry, we're wrapping it up.
43:33
Yeah, well, because they didn't like him.
43:37
Not to make light of the the Epstein files, but to me that
43:40
made me laugh my ass off. And they're like, yeah, sorry,
43:42
we don't care how much of A trillionaire you are, your ass
43:44
ain't coming. I mean well.
43:45
In him saying that he wasn't saying Donald Trump was in the
43:49
files. And it's like, dude, you're all,
43:52
you're in them too. Like all of you are all over
43:55
these things. Steve Bannon, do you see how
43:57
much he is in like that was like like they were like BFFS
44:01
basically. Like he was filming this these
44:06
for a documentary. He was just filming stuff for
44:08
this documentary that he had planned on releasing.
44:12
And I'm like, these dudes are like, they're like best friends.
44:16
This is crazy. Yeah, yeah, I'm, I'm prosecute
44:21
them all totally. But but then again, you're
44:24
looking at right now, you're looking at the Timothy Busfield
44:26
situation where this may actually be a revenge thing.
44:31
So it's like it's so hard because you get, you get two
44:35
sides of the, you get, you know, stuff that you know, I mean, my
44:39
gosh, I mean, it's, I get it makes it tough.
44:42
Did you see Did you see the new trailer for Michael Jackson?
44:47
Yes. Didn't it air during the
44:49
Grammys? It's going to air, I think a
44:51
little. Snip the trailer, Yeah.
44:53
During the Grammys and then the Youtubes got it.
44:55
And then it's going to do a little snippet during the Super
44:57
Bowl. And so it's going to be
45:00
interesting to see how people, if they accept this.
45:04
I mean, it looks, it looks amazing.
45:06
Yeah, the actor looks just like him.
45:09
Well, it's. His nephew, it's his nephew,
45:11
Yeah. So it's going to be so it looks
45:13
amazing. So I'll be curious to see how
45:15
the overall, you know, has has enough time gone by because
45:19
they're really thinking this is going to be the next Bohemian
45:21
Rhapsody because this is from the same producer and director
45:26
of Bohemian. Rhapsody.
45:27
So they're all so they're all like, oh, this is a billion
45:29
dollar movie. This will be a billion dollar
45:31
movie. And his story is sad.
45:35
Oh yeah. His the Michael Jackson story.
45:37
I mean, it really, really is sad.
45:39
So I'm curious how, but because of the the the cry of the
45:43
pedophilia and all that, I'm curious if that will and they
45:46
could go not I'm not going to go watch that.
45:49
I mean, it's happening. It still happens with his music.
45:52
Now people waffle back and forth on whether you should or
45:56
shouldn't listen to his music because of that.
45:59
So, well, the same thing's going to happen with this movie.
46:02
Well, I think, yeah. I mean, it's why I was.
46:04
Well, I feel the same way with Prince.
46:06
I mean, you know, I don't, I don't think, I think, I don't
46:09
think Prince treated women right.
46:11
No. He was a misogynistic asshole.
46:14
I mean, really, he's a genius. He's a genius, but.
46:18
But I don't get a pass. Yeah, I don't Yeah, I don't
46:21
think you get I don't think you get a pass.
46:22
So I'm curious, you know, if that's going to be the billion
46:24
dollar movie that Michael Jackson it looks again.
46:26
I really enjoyed they did before he passed away.
46:29
Was it the after he passed away? This is it where they did the
46:34
loved. I actually loved that movie and
46:36
I actually own it. So I, I mean, you know, but I've
46:40
always been, but I've always kind of been.
46:41
On on your VHS you on it. Yeah, yeah, my VHS on DVD, but
46:46
I've I've still kind of always been in the I've been in the
46:51
camp, you know, and again, I wasn't there.
46:53
Someone knows the truth. I've kind of sort of been in the
46:55
camp that you got set up in some of these situations.
46:59
And and so because just because other people like Lisa Marie
47:06
Presley, Macaulay Culkin. His own children.
47:10
Well, but but they were but they were children and they came out
47:13
and said nothing ever great happened.
47:16
Like Corey Feldman, I mean Macaulay Culkin, I mean all
47:19
these you know, he has got his staunch defenders that were
47:23
children at the time and said nothing ever, you know.
47:27
So and then you got and then you have an off story of like, oh, I
47:30
mean, yeah. But then but then Michael, you
47:32
do something stupid like, oh, why would I not let let the kids
47:35
in the bed? I'm like, what?
47:36
You know, like, come on, man. Yeah.
47:41
Yeah, that. Yeah.
47:44
Yeah, I do want to. I do want to see that because,
47:46
yeah, I've always been fascinated by his story.
47:51
Speaking of the Grammys, and we mentioned the Grammys, I watched
47:56
them on Sunday nights and they did not disappoint.
48:02
Justin Bieber performing in his boxers was like, oh, OK.
48:05
I was like, all right, I was a little a little different, but
48:13
I'm. Sure.
48:14
Hello Chapel. Rolling like what the?
48:16
What the? I thought her dress was great,
48:18
what are you talking about? Hanging by the nips.
48:20
Yeah, like what I thought it was.
48:23
I thought it was. It's all about.
48:25
That rides me of meat dress and it reminds me of the egg that
48:27
Lady Gaga rolled up in. I wish she had that, like she
48:30
had the like bird cage thing, did she?
48:33
Did doctor have a windshield? This time it was.
48:35
It was like a bird cage, like it was like a basket type looking
48:40
thing I guess is what I don't know.
48:42
Everybody's going in a. Birdcake this year because my
48:44
picks pretty much came home so people I thought were going to
48:48
win. You know, I love that song.
48:50
Messy. I know I got that one wrong.
48:53
I was going to mention that because I thought for sure it
48:55
was going to be Sabrina Carpenter because that song was
48:57
huge as well. It was.
48:59
I thought it was either going to be her or Bad Bunny because Bad
49:02
Bunny is like the most listened to artist ever.
49:05
Like he eclipses Taylor Swift at this point and so I really
49:09
thought it was going to either be him or Sabrina Carpet.
49:11
I was glad that she won. Don't get me wrong.
49:13
Like I love her song Messy. Well, some of these songs.
49:16
That I was wrong. Messy is a great song and then
49:19
Mutt is another Leon Thompson, another great, like great song.
49:23
So I mean, for me, I was, I mean, I I had my faves going in
49:26
there in terms of and then you had Jelly roll, you had Jelly
49:30
roll. It was Jelly rolls.
49:31
You know, there's no doubt about that.
49:33
I mean, so it was I I think pop music, there's a lot of great
49:37
pop music out right now. So it's it would be tough to to
49:40
pick the pick the hits. So there's.
49:42
Going to be yeah, there were so many when they would announce
49:45
the category for song of the year, record of the year, there
49:49
were yeah, I'm like, how do I choose?
49:51
These are all fabulous artists. These songs were great.
49:55
I was like, Oh my God, I don't, I honestly, I don't know who's
49:59
going to win, but I was going. I don't know.
50:01
I don't. These are all great artists.
50:04
Yeah, pop music is on a high right now.
50:06
So I what I love most about Sabrina Carpenter and she was in
50:11
at the Benton Franklin front rodeo a few years back when she
50:14
was on girl. She was a girl.
50:15
No, it's such a great story because she was she was on girl
50:19
meets world, you know, before before her her she still put
50:22
albums back then, but she wasn't like she was today.
50:25
And so she came and did a 130 show, 130 show.
50:29
She wasn't even the main like and it was on a Saturday.
50:32
So they were so they the fair treated it like, oh, we have a
50:35
Disney, a Disney TV star, not you know, and it was spring
50:40
Carpenter. I did, I did the I didn't get to
50:42
meet her. I wish I would have, but I did.
50:46
I did the opening. Of course, I welcomed her on
50:47
stage. Welcome spring Carpenter, but I
50:49
didn't get a chance to go backstage and meet her.
50:51
But but I remember all in that this has probably been 10 years
50:54
ago, but I just remember that she came for a 130 show.
50:59
That's. Crazy at the fair and and and of
51:02
course the kids were there, so it wasn't.
51:04
Like, yeah. I mean, because it was it was,
51:06
it was Girl Meets World. So that was very popular on
51:08
Disney. But the parents had no like they
51:10
had no like who? Why are we here?
51:12
And now she's the biggest. Now she's one of the biggest pop
51:14
stars. I mean, Taylor Swift really
51:16
helped. Oh, she paved the way into the,
51:19
the, the atmosphere. I don't know, whatever you want
51:23
to call it. Yeah.
51:24
It's Taylor Swift, basically. Like, yeah.
51:26
But there's a lot. But looking at the Grammys,
51:27
there's a lot of, I thought there was a lot of great, great
51:30
artists this year and super. And of course the hilarity right
51:34
now is Bad Bunny, he's got 3 Grammys and Kid Rock has zero.
51:37
So the turning point USA all white.
51:41
All white, I was going to say rolling in from the Grammys.
51:44
Yeah, we could talk about the halftime show because it is Bad
51:47
Bunny. He did win.
51:49
Yes. I, I'm, I'm excited to see all
51:53
the white people melting down on social media.
51:55
A lot of them are going to be my own family.
51:57
Because Bad Bunny, unlike K pop, K pop music is they sing in
52:04
Korean and then English, you know, but Bad Bunny is all
52:08
Spanish, like all his songs are Spanish.
52:12
And so, you know, he's not going to, I don't, I personally don't
52:16
think he's going to deviate from that.
52:17
I wouldn't if I was him. Well, number one, he's American.
52:20
He's Puerto Rican. Yes, he's.
52:21
Puerto Rican, which is true of. American and this and this
52:25
absurdity, this absurdity. And if you read the comments,
52:28
it's This is why you stay off social media.
52:30
It's like, what can you speak English and like and then
52:33
everybody has to remind everybody America does not
52:36
English is not America's language.
52:38
It's not like it's not. I mean it.
52:40
We America does not have a designated language.
52:43
No. So the hilarity is and to me, I
52:46
was talking to to my Co host today on the radio show.
52:49
I said, I'm going to be so glad when the old white guys who have
52:52
their pants all the way up to here and their big beer guts and
52:55
the ball caps and the 80 some year olds.
52:58
I'm I'm sorry, should I shouldn't be happy that they're
53:00
going to be leaving the planet sometime.
53:01
But I am because it's like, my God, I mean, and then and then
53:06
let's talk about the reality of so So they just announced the
53:09
Pendleton Whiskey Music Fest. What?
53:11
They did. Yeah, so you got you got Zach
53:13
Top coming, you've got Shibuzi and you've got Carly Pierce and
53:17
Diamond Rio. And a lot of people are a lot of
53:19
people are not so big on Shibuzi.
53:20
But I always, I always tell people when we talk about stuff
53:25
and we can talk about here is it's like who buys music?
53:29
Who buys records or buys music? Young people.
53:32
Yeah. So Sabrina Carpenter, you know
53:35
all that. So, so it's to sit there and be
53:37
a some 50-60 year old person. You know, it's like, I just,
53:42
I've always felt it found it ridiculous.
53:44
Well, number one, I used to joke about this, about the radio
53:46
station when some guy would come in and remember when one of the
53:49
salespeople came in and complained about the station.
53:51
I go, I didn't build it for you. Yeah.
53:53
Yeah, it's not built for you. Yeah.
53:55
You know you're not the you're not the audience.
53:57
So why is it so hard for people to realize that you're not the
54:01
audience? Because because it they're only
54:05
thinking about themselves. Like like take for example, the
54:09
old white guy you're talking about that doesn't like Shibuzi
54:11
or whatever. Like they're only thinking about
54:13
themselves. Like you should cater to me, not
54:18
everyone else. Like, because we're all just so
54:22
wrapped up in ourselves and we don't think about other people.
54:25
And so we think that whatever we like should be what everybody
54:29
else likes. What, you know, like we should
54:31
force that on everyone. I like religion at this point in
54:35
our country. I mean, I, I always, I always
54:38
joke when I go to the the radio station playlist.
54:40
I mean, Mr. Mr. is my absolute favorite band of all time.
54:43
But you're not forcing it down all of our throats.
54:46
But guess what's? Not in the, but guess what's not
54:48
in the playlist? Yeah.
54:50
You know, unless, unless it unless it comes back in a test
54:52
where it tests great, you know, and, and so it's like, yeah,
54:56
even though I know every single song and, and they're my fave, I
54:59
don't play it over. And, you know, I don't force it
55:02
because that, you know, as I was always taught is what does the
55:06
audience want and what are the right songs for the audience?
55:08
And so when you're looking at when you're looking at the Super
55:11
Bowl, it's like who's the audience who you're trying to
55:14
reach? And, and it isn't just people in
55:16
NASCAR or it's not just rednecks.
55:19
Right. And who who was the biggest
55:21
again? Who who is the biggest artist of
55:25
the past year? It was Bad Bunny.
55:27
He had the most streams. He eclipsed Taylor Swift, so the
55:32
NFL is smart to have him as the Super Bowl halftime show like
55:36
Jay. Z is in charge of Jay-Z is the
55:39
guy who puts the axe. If you did not know it, Jay-Z is
55:42
in our spider company. Yeah, but, but we've had what we
55:46
had the weekend when he was hot. I mean, the, you know, all
55:49
these. You had Maroon 5, you know, when
55:51
they were hot. I mean, and going back to our
55:54
original thing, you got to blame Michael Jackson.
55:56
If you're ever curious, what started the big Super Bowl
55:58
performances Michael Jackson did in the early 90s?
56:01
Because before that it was up with people.
56:04
I was going to say, didn't we talk about this where it was
56:06
like marching bands or something back in the day?
56:09
Enjoy, enjoy people. And so to and, and again, again,
56:12
you can drag out The Rolling Stones who are not even
56:14
American. OK, right.
56:17
Put it into perspective. Not American, 80 plus years old.
56:21
And not to say that stones aren't great, but it's like, who
56:24
are you trying to, to to talk to?
56:26
And you have an incredible amount of Americans who see
56:30
themselves in bad money. Yes, and the NFL is branching
56:34
out into South America. They have played games in Brazil
56:37
course. They're in London, they're every
56:38
I. Mean other countries and they
56:40
know. They have to be worldwide.
56:41
Yes, it's not. They can't just be about old
56:44
white men and wanting to see Kid Rock.
56:47
It has. To go to a NASCAR race for that
56:50
right? But remember, so but that's the
56:52
but that's the problem. So yeah, NASCAR is big money,
56:55
but it's the, you know, here's NASCAR and here's the NFLI mean
56:59
it's all in, in who the audience is and who you're trying to
57:01
reach. And I mean, you can't.
57:03
I know it was so funny with the Turning Point show.
57:05
They were like, well, George Strait, well, George Strait's
57:07
retired. He does one or two shows a year.
57:09
He's already said that. And, and George Strait, I give
57:12
George Strait credit, he wouldn't say anything like, you
57:14
know what I'm saying. I've never heard George Strait
57:16
say anything like political. Political.
57:19
No, he just wouldn't. Same as Dolly Parton.
57:23
No. They are smart enough.
57:24
They're like, I'm not going to alienate my, you know.
57:27
Right. And, and I'll tell you right
57:28
now, I know Dolly loves the drag Queens of.
57:31
Course she does. You know Dolly loves the gays.
57:34
Period. She's Dolly Parton.
57:36
I mean, God, we love. She's a national treasure.
57:38
Yes, yeah, yeah, the gays know that she loves them so.
57:42
Of course, that's that's all that, you know, And, and I
57:46
thought it was interesting. Someone said something about Bad
57:48
Bunny. Well, he's going to wear a
57:49
dress. OK, so because but he but he but
57:53
he but he but he does it because it's gender equality.
57:56
I mean he's sending a message is why he wears but but like but
58:00
Milton Borough wore a dress. Well, and he's especially in
58:04
the, especially in the Spanish cultures that have the machismo,
58:09
you know, the macho. And so he is breaking those
58:12
norms and breaking through you. Don't have to die on it.
58:16
I get it. I get it.
58:17
But but why are we so blind and so ignorant that that we can't
58:20
see the nose in front of our, you know, spite of our faces?
58:23
So but I'm super excited. Bad Bunny.
58:26
We also we've got a bet going on in the the studio.
58:29
So Patty says the Patriots are going to win.
58:33
I'm saying that I took the Hawks.
58:34
I took the Hawks, remember? Well, remember, Patty's from the
58:36
Midwest. She's from the Midwest, so she's
58:39
a Green Bay Packers fan. But I took the Hawks.
58:41
And so we made a a, a, a Pepsi and Reese's.
58:44
I was going to say, what did you bet?
58:46
OK. I already know I, I, I'm not
58:49
going to jinx it before we go, but I really think it's going to
58:51
be a blowout this, this Sunday. I I don't think it's going to be
58:55
a blowout. I really, I want the Hawks to
58:58
win and I'm not trying to. Yeah, again, I don't want to
59:02
jinx it and be like we're going to win.
59:04
We're going to, we're going to kick their ass.
59:06
I really want us to kick their ass for redemption.
59:11
And I'm hoping you're praying that happens so.
59:14
I think the only reason why I say this is because I think that
59:19
I'm like you, I enjoy a close game.
59:20
I you know, I do like a fun, a fun, close game, but I just felt
59:25
after they took apart the Rams, I'm like, oh, gosh, and then and
59:28
then and then the Patriots barely squeaked by the Broncos
59:31
with the backup to the backup to the backup to the backup
59:34
quarterback. I'm like, OK, I think it's going
59:36
to be, you know, I still think on any given Sunday, on any
59:39
given Sunday, the worst team can beat the best team.
59:41
I do know, I do believe that but and if and if they don't make
59:44
any mistakes, but I do still going to give it to the Hawks on
59:46
this one. That's it for today's episode of
