Speaker 1: And what if I lost both my hands tomorrow.
0:07
Speaker 2: You could be a seat model star. I was sixteen
0:11
Speaker 2: at the time or fifteen, and then hook it up
0:14
Speaker 2: with a witch and that was that. Cats can smile apparently,
0:20
Speaker 2: whoa weird, but it doesn't always mean that they're happy.
0:25
Speaker 1: Lucy receives a call from what I can only assume
0:27
Speaker 1: is the future winner of every acting award ever.
0:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jennyman is a star. Her look looks weren't a
0:35
Speaker 2: part of the issue.
0:37
Speaker 1: He's like, I had to sell my last top hat
0:39
Speaker 1: for dramas.
0:41
Speaker 2: Maybe this is not appropriate either, but we'll see.
0:47
Speaker 1: What's up. Nostalgia nerds, do you hear that? It is
0:51
Speaker 1: the sound of us winning the award? But as you
0:58
Speaker 1: can tell, they didn't mess up the name again, they
0:59
Speaker 1: just said Andy and Jeff, which is fine. It's still
1:01
Speaker 1: pretty cool, but yeah, it just seems kind of weird, like.
1:05
Speaker 2: We prefer Andy and Jeff and Andy. Yeah, now we
1:09
Speaker 2: are the twenty twenty five Best Radio show slash personality
1:14
Speaker 2: of the mid Element of Valet. Yes, so yeah, congratulations.
1:19
Speaker 1: Congratulations to you. That has a great night. That's fun.
1:22
Speaker 2: Before we get into the highlights, and in the recognition
1:25
Speaker 2: for doing such groundbreaking work on our on our show
1:29
Speaker 2: over the past four or five years. I do have
1:31
Speaker 2: a review that I would like to read. So this
1:35
Speaker 2: one is on Apple podcast and it's titled just not Good.
1:40
Speaker 2: So listen to our spoiler. It's a one star review
1:43
Speaker 2: I've had. I've tried a long time. This is usually
1:46
Speaker 2: my show to listen to when I've absolutely no other options.
1:50
Speaker 2: It's feeling really truly unsufferable lately, insufferable lately Jeff Jeff
1:56
Speaker 2: says wild things just for attention, So thank you, thank you.
2:00
Speaker 2: This is aj listening, so thank you for that. So
2:04
Speaker 2: I want to say I when I first got this,
2:07
Speaker 2: saw this notification that we got this review, I was
2:10
Speaker 2: I was going into orbit. I was so emotional, but
2:14
Speaker 2: I also have a lot of mental health issues. So
2:16
Speaker 2: but after I calm down and I took my littrazapam,
2:20
Speaker 2: I realized that I want to dissect this even more so.
2:23
Speaker 2: This person has tried for a long time. This is
2:27
Speaker 2: usually their show that they listen to and they absolutely
2:29
Speaker 2: no other options. So right there, I'm perplexed because there
2:34
Speaker 2: are other things to do besides listening to podcasts. And
2:37
Speaker 2: if you've there's so many podcasts.
2:40
Speaker 1: Yes, and that's what I was thinking, like I don't
2:41
Speaker 1: have any podcasts that I'm like, ugh, I, hey, I
2:44
Speaker 1: guess i'll listen to this on if I don't, like,
2:46
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna listen to music or nothing at all,
2:49
Speaker 1: Like if you have to keep trying to push yourself
2:51
Speaker 1: to listen to the podcast, Yeah, what are you doing?
2:54
Speaker 1: That's on you? Like, that's on them.
2:56
Speaker 2: This is like having sex with your spouse just because like,
2:59
Speaker 2: oh it's Wednesday and you it's it's your guys' sext day.
3:03
Speaker 2: So it's just there's so many you can crochet, knit,
3:08
Speaker 2: make are other things outside of you know, like crocheting
3:12
Speaker 2: and knitting that you can do quiltine, like for instance,
3:17
Speaker 2: There's so many options. But and then I then I
3:19
Speaker 2: saw the next one. Jeff says wild things just for attention,
3:24
Speaker 2: Like I can't hate on that, Like that's completely true.
3:28
Speaker 1: So yes, well that is kind of the point of
3:31
Speaker 1: a podcast.
3:32
Speaker 2: To get to people to listen to subscribe. And yeah,
3:36
Speaker 2: so I I can't argue with that. And some of
3:38
Speaker 2: the things I've said over the years have been poetic
3:43
Speaker 2: and powerful and poignant, so I don't know.
3:47
Speaker 1: So yeah, so we understand we're not everybody's cup a
3:51
Speaker 1: cup of tea. But instead of like forcing yourself to listen.
3:54
Speaker 2: Just stop.
3:55
Speaker 1: At one point, like how long were they listening? Because
3:59
Speaker 1: they said a long time. Yeah, so we've been around
4:00
Speaker 1: for four or five years. I don't know the exact time.
4:03
Speaker 1: But do you think they got on the very beginning
4:05
Speaker 1: and then they finally like, you know what, can't do it?
4:07
Speaker 1: Or like, I don't know, it just seems really weird.
4:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think I appreciate them, and I tried
4:15
Speaker 2: figuring out who they were. So I searched AJ listening
4:19
Speaker 2: into Instagram and the username AJ listening is and this
4:23
Speaker 2: is like conspiracy theory totally, but it's al Jazeera, like
4:28
Speaker 2: like a news organization like Middle East I Believe or
4:31
Speaker 2: something like that. So I was like, it's probably not
4:34
Speaker 2: al Jazeera, So but I'm like, are we going up
4:39
Speaker 2: against al Jazera? I don't know. So I just thought
4:41
Speaker 2: that was interesting. So thank you so much for leaving
4:43
Speaker 2: us a review. I think there are more creative things
4:48
Speaker 2: that I've said a lot worse, and I've you know,
4:51
Speaker 2: I've you know, but I thought that was so interesting.
4:54
Speaker 2: So I wanted to open up with that because then
4:57
Speaker 2: the other thing is I know that AJ Listen Me
5:00
Speaker 2: did not win Best Radio Personality Radio Show of the
5:02
Speaker 2: Middle Valley twenty twenty five and twenty twenty three, so
5:06
Speaker 2: I thought we would dive into that and the recognition
5:08
Speaker 2: that we received.
5:10
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's one more or less sing So al
5:11
Speaker 1: does your media network? It looks like it was funded
5:14
Speaker 1: in part by the government of Katar. So I mean,
5:17
Speaker 1: but if they want us to come visit them and
5:20
Speaker 1: we could like talk to them, if it is them,
5:22
Speaker 1: like I would go, I mean, i'd go visit.
5:24
Speaker 2: I would totally.
5:25
Speaker 1: Uh Katar.
5:26
Speaker 2: Didn't they just give Trump like a really like multi.
5:29
Speaker 1: Four hundred million dollars Yeah, jet jet.
5:31
Speaker 2: So I'm down for like censoring our content. If we
5:33
Speaker 2: could get a jet, we have a very low price.
5:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll even yeah, I'll even take like a nineteen
5:39
Speaker 1: eighty three Ford's town car for town car.
5:42
Speaker 2: I would take a gift card to like uber like
5:46
Speaker 2: I'm there, so whatever, if you want to buy us,
5:50
Speaker 2: We're up for Ziale.
5:51
Speaker 1: But it's a used gift card. So it was like
5:52
Speaker 1: eighteen dollars even number Oh.
5:55
Speaker 2: Okay, oh my god. So I thank you Listener for

6:07
Speaker 2: and at the end of the day, like, it's great
6:09
Speaker 2: to be recognized for local Newspapers award show, but at
6:17
Speaker 2: the end of the day, it was fun just to
6:18
Speaker 2: hang out with you and to like go out and
6:20
Speaker 2: get dressed up and go to the gala. So our
6:23
Speaker 2: little tradition two years, you know, total when we've gone
6:27
Speaker 2: is to go to the little dive bar, the Dead Bar.
6:29
Speaker 2: Shout to Den Bar.
6:30
Speaker 1: What's up? It's my favorite bar downtown.
6:32
Speaker 2: It is fa Yeah, it's so fabulous and I need
6:36
Speaker 2: to get into their their food situation.
6:37
Speaker 1: Every time I go there. The cook ladies like really
6:39
Speaker 1: nice and she's always trying to like show food in
6:41
Speaker 1: our face, which is cool, you know. But the first
6:44
Speaker 1: time I went there, I didn't know she worked there.
6:46
Speaker 1: So she just like, Sudie, do you want some prime rip?
6:48
Speaker 1: I'm like, uh, I mean kind of, but who are you?
6:51
Speaker 2: And then I found out but yeah, no, fabulous And
6:53
Speaker 2: then so we get there and like I prefunk with
6:56
Speaker 2: like usually edibles, and then we like drink a lot
6:58
Speaker 2: of alcohol and Jeremy, my better half, came with us,
7:03
Speaker 2: and he definitely looked like reservoir dogs meat like pit
7:06
Speaker 2: bowl situation. And then I wore the same outfit pretty
7:12
Speaker 2: much that I wore to the last time we went,
7:14
Speaker 2: so sequin like you know, purplely pink jacket. I did
7:19
Speaker 2: House of It was all. My whole outfit was House
7:21
Speaker 2: of Bezos, Like it was just everything from Amazon. And
7:24
Speaker 2: I fucking loved that. I for shoes were sparkly, did
7:30
Speaker 2: some face blamebling on my around my eyes. It was
7:33
Speaker 2: really fun. Andy looked adorable and handsome in a suit,
7:36
Speaker 2: adorable in a suit, and Jeremy wore suit and so
7:40
Speaker 2: we got a little faded at Den Bar, and then
7:42
Speaker 2: we went over to the Galla at the Salem Convention Center.
7:47
Speaker 2: We made it.
7:48
Speaker 1: Yeah h no, for sure. And then while we were there,
7:50
Speaker 1: it's you know, delicious food. There's a really good cover
7:54
Speaker 1: band that was playing. It was like a low key,
7:56
Speaker 1: nice cover band. I think they're doing Tom Petty if
7:58
Speaker 1: I remember correctly. Yeah, we already kind of drink pretty
8:00
Speaker 1: heavy at that point. The open bar, which is a
8:02
Speaker 1: lot of fun, so got a lot of free drinks
8:04
Speaker 1: while we were there.
8:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we we hit that hard on the bar.
8:08
Speaker 2: The food was pretty disgusting, not disgusting, but for like
8:11
Speaker 2: how much the because the tickets, it's it's like a
8:13
Speaker 2: fundraiser kind of things because we're heroes. And so the
8:18
Speaker 2: chicken was a little dry, but it's it's what it's
8:20
Speaker 2: sales come on. And then but yeah, so the at
8:24
Speaker 2: the gala, so there's different categories. So there's like, you know,
8:28
Speaker 2: people in the healthcare industry, people at bar that own bars,
8:33
Speaker 2: you know, theaters like that.
8:36
Speaker 1: Kind of anything you can think of here.
8:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, so at our table, we had like I think
8:41
Speaker 2: like hvac company, a bar and like a wellness center
8:45
Speaker 2: and then us. So they were all talking about their
8:47
Speaker 2: businesses and stuff like that, and then it was like
8:49
Speaker 2: our turn to kind of talk. I told that joke.
8:53
Speaker 2: What did the gay deer say when he left the bar?
8:57
Speaker 2: Can't believe I blew fifty bucks.
8:58
Speaker 1: Because that's like I don't think I was. That's a
9:02
Speaker 1: good joke.
9:02
Speaker 2: I't know what else does say. That's our brands like
9:05
Speaker 2: that we're there for comedy because we're the only personality
9:08
Speaker 2: like category of the night. And then so we were
9:12
Speaker 2: eating our salad and I need to share this with
9:14
Speaker 2: a listener. I was eating my salad, and it was
9:16
Speaker 2: pretty good salad. And I hear somebody say, I swear
9:19
Speaker 2: to I swear to God that she said, can I
9:21
Speaker 2: take your plate? Your salad plate? I swear she said that,
9:24
Speaker 2: but apparently she didn't. But I was handing her my
9:26
Speaker 2: plate and it was miss or again like to the
9:29
Speaker 2: side of me. Sequin dress had her crown and her
9:32
Speaker 2: sash on, and that was kind of a little she
9:34
Speaker 2: she had. She was a good sport, but I was like,
9:37
Speaker 2: you know that kind of thing to her. I could
9:40
Speaker 2: tell she was getting a little faded.
9:41
Speaker 1: Oh sure, yeah, yeah, definitely. But no, she was very sweet.
9:44
Speaker 1: We took pictures with her, her mom was taking pictures
9:47
Speaker 1: and stuff with us. It's fun, man, I mean, there's
9:49
Speaker 1: a whole The whole thing was great. The only thing
9:51
Speaker 1: I wasn't a big fan of was like, just because
9:53
Speaker 1: I don't like waiting for things. We were one of
9:55
Speaker 1: the last categories, and all the categories for us there
10:00
Speaker 1: was like seventy I don't know, man, man too many,
10:03
Speaker 1: but thirty in each category. So then you had to
10:06
Speaker 1: wait for them to walk up and accept their award
10:08
Speaker 1: and everything, and it took a long time, but it
10:10
Speaker 1: did make the anticipation grow and grow and grow. And
10:13
Speaker 1: then right when they said Andy and Jeff.
10:14
Speaker 2: Were like, WHOA so exciting it was. It was fun
10:18
Speaker 2: to win, like when people were like, it's just fun
10:20
Speaker 2: to be nominated. No, like, it's not like I would
10:22
Speaker 2: have been so crushed and devastated if we didn't. Yeah,
10:25
Speaker 2: I would have shot up the No, no, no, I'm
10:28
Speaker 2: not gonna say things just to be outrageous. Not gonna
10:31
Speaker 2: do it. Yeah. So we went up there and got
10:33
Speaker 2: our award, and then Andy got off the stage and
10:36
Speaker 2: I was, you know, a little tipsy still, so I
10:38
Speaker 2: went over and I hugged miss Or again. And it
10:40
Speaker 2: wasn't like give a speech kind of situation. It was
10:43
Speaker 2: like take your war and get off the stage. But
10:45
Speaker 2: I like hugged her like she had something to do
10:47
Speaker 2: with it. Yeah, thinking his worry for taking care of us.
10:52
Speaker 2: But no, it was a fun. It was fun to
10:54
Speaker 2: like see people dressed up because Okay, what I was
11:00
Speaker 2: thinking about is that one of the categories is best,
11:03
Speaker 2: like I don't like funeral parlor like funeral home. So
11:06
Speaker 2: people voted on that, Like I'm assuming it was more
11:10
Speaker 2: employees that and their friends and family. It probably wasn't
11:13
Speaker 2: like somebody who lost their aunt.
11:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, could you imagine like them reaching out like, hey,
11:18
Speaker 1: you know, six months ago we buried your dad. We're
11:22
Speaker 1: up for this award from a local news story. Where
11:25
Speaker 1: could you just vote if you don't mind?
11:28
Speaker 2: That just made me think, do like funeral parlors and
11:31
Speaker 2: stuff like that. I have, like they do like Google reviews.
11:34
Speaker 1: I think, so oh wow, And I last time I
11:37
Speaker 1: was at one. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure,
11:40
Speaker 1: like where the front desk was. I think there was
11:42
Speaker 1: a thing like leave us a review. I could be wrong,
11:45
Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure I saw it. But it was
11:46
Speaker 1: like small and it wasn't like a you know, I.
11:49
Speaker 2: Feel like a funeral home. It needs to be either
11:53
Speaker 2: five star or one, like like a bad situation happened,
11:57
Speaker 2: and like that bad situation is like something really bad
12:00
Speaker 2: bad happened, like they like, you know, cremated the wrong part,
12:04
Speaker 2: you know, that kind of thing. But like what's a
12:06
Speaker 2: three star? Like what could have been improved by this?
12:10
Speaker 1: Yeah, like maybe they got the wrong type of flowers
12:12
Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, I don't know. I wonder how many
12:14
Speaker 1: there are.
12:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, we need to I've been to a few of them.
12:17
Speaker 2: I've never been to a bad feud. You know, all
12:19
Speaker 2: funerals are bad, but I've never been to one where
12:21
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, it's really dusty here, you know
12:24
Speaker 2: what I mean? Oh my god? Yeah? Yeah, I love
12:27
Speaker 2: Google for this reason alone. Or are there any that
12:30
Speaker 2: in the local area that have some like Google reviews?
12:33
Speaker 2: There is a ship ton of funerals though their recession
12:37
Speaker 2: proof like procession proof job, But like, what are some.
12:41
Speaker 1: Of the Google reviews? Best review or I'll do worst review?
12:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to figure out what see. This is
12:49
Speaker 2: a hard hitting because it's a news episode. This is
12:51
Speaker 2: the hard hitting news journalism that gets us awards. Like
12:55
Speaker 2: we went from best Radio Personality the Midlelimate Valley to
12:59
Speaker 2: I want to say body as next or like Nobel
13:01
Speaker 2: Peace Prize, Yeah.
13:03
Speaker 1: Or maybe something we're too like uh like a Tony
13:06
Speaker 1: Wou'd be like, well, are you sure we're supposed to
13:08
Speaker 1: be getting this?
13:08
Speaker 2: We could turn this into a musical.
13:11
Speaker 1: So this one has a four point six, four point nine,
13:14
Speaker 1: four point Oh okay, I'm gonna try to find the
13:16
Speaker 1: four point four.
13:18
Speaker 2: And it's all local ones.
13:19
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm, all right, so we'll do the four point
13:22
Speaker 1: four because I think that's the leton. There's a four
13:24
Speaker 1: point Oh oh no, we won't say the name, just
13:26
Speaker 1: to be safe.
13:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, because we need to use them.
13:31
Speaker 1: All right, let me see if I can find the
13:32
Speaker 1: reviews they got thirty four reviews. All right, let's check
13:34
Speaker 1: out this.
13:35
Speaker 2: If you're in the mid Wilammett Valley and you own
13:37
Speaker 2: a funeral home and you your Google reviews aren't really
13:40
Speaker 2: killing it and you need some help, then reach out
13:43
Speaker 2: to us and maybe sponsor an episode.
13:45
Speaker 1: Yay, there you go. You know, so this is a
13:47
Speaker 1: three star review. We were talking about, like what a
13:49
Speaker 1: three star? A beautiful and quiet location. Parts of the
13:53
Speaker 1: cemetery are lovingly tended. Many areas look like a dollar star.
13:59
Speaker 1: Many areas look like a dollar store. It's unfortunate that
14:02
Speaker 1: Salem's oldest citizens and veterans res I had in such
14:05
Speaker 1: an undignified, trashy environment. God damn. That one's pretty tough
14:10
Speaker 1: for a three All right, so this is a one star.
14:15
Speaker 1: It's kind of I'm just I haven't read this, I
14:17
Speaker 1: haven't proved this. So I have never written a review
14:21
Speaker 1: of a funeral home, much less advise people to stay
14:23
Speaker 1: away from one. That makes sense. That would be weird.
14:25
Speaker 1: If you all their funerals. I've written for our experience
14:29
Speaker 1: having a family member recently at this place, not gonna
14:33
Speaker 1: read the name was beyond terrible. It was appalling. To
14:36
Speaker 1: say the owner lax communication skills is understatement. My emails
14:40
Speaker 1: and phone calls were routinely unanswered. Well, I don't want
14:45
Speaker 1: to just it seems like more I was holding something funny.
14:47
Speaker 1: I live on the East Coast.
14:50
Speaker 2: I think if it was like a one star review,
14:53
Speaker 2: it's like something that maybe they're taking legal action against. Yeah,
14:56
Speaker 2: because because like I don't know, but also or any
15:00
Speaker 2: of the people loved reviews AJ Listening, because who leaves
15:05
Speaker 2: the negative review for a fucking podcast, let alone a
15:08
Speaker 2: funeral home? Unless yeah, unless my grandmother was like raped
15:11
Speaker 2: by one of us. Oh that's yeah, that was probably.
15:17
Speaker 2: But I don't think AJ Listening could leave another review.
15:20
Speaker 2: So I think I can say what the fuck I
15:21
Speaker 2: want now.
15:22
Speaker 1: So it looks like a lot of time when they
15:24
Speaker 1: showed up, this person never introduced themselves, so I don't
15:26
Speaker 1: even know their name. That's funny. Uh, So it looks
15:29
Speaker 1: like just lack of communication. But after a while, like
15:34
Speaker 1: it seems like she was dealing with them for weeks, like,
15:36
Speaker 1: just go somewhere else.
15:37
Speaker 2: Then, yeah, we cut to the chase, she goes.
15:40
Speaker 1: I do have a point of comparison when my mother died,
15:43
Speaker 1: went to this other place and that place was awesome.
15:46
Speaker 1: Why switch it up? Then? Yeah, we didn't have to
15:49
Speaker 1: monitor their employees to make sure they were doing their jobs.
15:51
Speaker 1: All I can think of are those poor people going
15:53
Speaker 1: to this place at one of the lowest points in
15:56
Speaker 1: their lives and the sloppy and inattentive treatment they can expect.
16:00
Speaker 1: Go somewhere else. So she was not happy.
16:04
Speaker 2: I think what we should all do is like create
16:07
Speaker 2: like a death plan of like where you want to
16:09
Speaker 2: be buried, where you want your funeral to be ahead
16:12
Speaker 2: of time. So but if this place is cheap though,
16:15
Speaker 2: like you know.
16:16
Speaker 1: Oh this guy yeah also has a one star review.
16:19
Speaker 1: Twenty years ago, I did three funerals for my mom, dad,
16:21
Speaker 1: and brother. On May eighteenth, my wife passed away. I
16:24
Speaker 1: called this place not knowing they misfelt knowing. Oh no,
16:28
Speaker 1: so you can see what kind of anyways they have
16:29
Speaker 1: a new owners. For my brother's funeral, I paid fifty
16:32
Speaker 1: seven hundred same thing for my wife funeral service will
16:35
Speaker 1: be almost fifteen thousand cheaper casket and vault. The people
16:40
Speaker 1: that run this place now has no heart.
16:42
Speaker 2: Jesus. That's really sad. Yeah, yeah, I feel bad for
16:46
Speaker 2: everybody in this situation.
16:48
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of one star reviews. Holy shit.
16:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, so let's don't bury me there, Andy.
16:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, my friend who lost her son was treated horribly
16:56
Speaker 1: by this business. Oh that's said. Why are section markers
16:59
Speaker 1: not in the cemetery or current map of the sections
17:02
Speaker 1: on their website? Most links on their website are broken
17:04
Speaker 1: traveling from out of state? Yeah, I don't know. It
17:07
Speaker 1: just doesn't seem like the best. This person gave it
17:11
Speaker 1: a five star. They go sadly, you've had to use
17:13
Speaker 1: their services several times and the worst of times, You
17:16
Speaker 1: guys provide the absolute best and most compassionate care and service.
17:20
Speaker 1: This person has helped us with three family members, and
17:23
Speaker 1: I hope you're around when or if I need your service. Yeah,
17:28
Speaker 1: I don't know.
17:29
Speaker 2: That's awesome that like the return customers at least get
17:32
Speaker 2: really like five star treatment.
17:33
Speaker 1: That's true.
17:34
Speaker 2: That's really yeah, Because if you only use them once
17:36
Speaker 2: every like five to ten years, they're not building that
17:39
Speaker 2: relationship with you. But that one gentleman that lost like
17:42
Speaker 2: three people in a row, like he knows why, you
17:45
Speaker 2: know what works?
17:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, one star it was okay.
17:49
Speaker 2: AnyWho? So speaking of the gall Yeah, so I am.
17:54
Speaker 2: I think that made sense because it was perplexing that
17:59
Speaker 2: that would be like a best you know category.
18:04
Speaker 1: But I'm wondering who won that.
18:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's so many business now, so much business now.
18:10
Speaker 2: So AnyWho, and they don't have they have dispensaries on
18:15
Speaker 2: the categories for the for the gala, but they don't
18:18
Speaker 2: have strip clubs. And I think that that's that's a
18:21
Speaker 2: missed opportunity there, because we need to like not saying,
18:25
Speaker 2: you know, we need to have like more adult shops
18:28
Speaker 2: be recognized. Yeah.
18:29
Speaker 1: I don't know how many adult shops are even around anymore.
18:32
Speaker 2: Because who buys porn?
18:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked to Ross about that and yeah, we're
18:36
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, nobody's really buying it anymore. We're trying
18:39
Speaker 1: to sling our old porn to him.
18:41
Speaker 2: Yeah. The Ross was a guy, a published author, very
18:49
Speaker 2: like distinguished person who we interviewed on a previous episode
18:53
Speaker 2: and again another example of our award winning journalism. So
18:57
Speaker 2: he was his book nineteen ninety nine. It was our
19:00
Speaker 2: first notable Nostalgia book Club selection, so check that out.
19:04
Speaker 1: It's actually really fun. Episode two, he was really cool.
19:06
Speaker 2: Guy, I'm really excited. No, I'm excited for twenty twenty six.
19:09
Speaker 2: I think the content that we're making now by like,
19:11
Speaker 2: for example, reading off reviews of mortuaries, is gonna get
19:15
Speaker 2: us locked in for twenty twenty six awards, And I
19:19
Speaker 2: think we're just gonna We're gonna be Ego Egot sometime someday.
19:23
Speaker 1: Yeah. So I was actually thinking about it because I
19:25
Speaker 1: just saw Hamilton again in theaters, which might have been
19:28
Speaker 1: better than seeing it live. It was incredible, but I
19:31
Speaker 1: was like, who would I write like a musical about?
19:35
Speaker 1: And I was thinking about it, so nobody still this idea.
19:38
Speaker 1: So the person who invented mustard gas also invented klon A,
19:42
Speaker 1: which turned into icon B, which killed a bunch of
19:46
Speaker 1: the Jews. But he's also the same person who figured
19:49
Speaker 1: out how to use nitrogen to speed up crop growth,
19:53
Speaker 1: so he's probably saved billions of lives. But he was
19:56
Speaker 1: a horrible piece of shit racist who also murdered millions
19:59
Speaker 1: of lives. So the duality of like the good and
20:01
Speaker 1: bad might be worth making a.
20:03
Speaker 2: Like a Hamilton out of I love that.
20:05
Speaker 1: It's kind of cool.
20:06
Speaker 2: Who would I choose so a historical figure that's maybe
20:09
Speaker 2: more obscure, so that it'd be a way to like
20:11
Speaker 2: educate the public on it. I don't know, who would
20:15
Speaker 2: I do?
20:19
Speaker 1: Good?
20:19
Speaker 2: It could be a song where she's like, take my
20:21
Speaker 2: left dumb, take my right arm, take my left leg,
20:24
Speaker 2: take my right leg. I'm a paper weight. Wow, that's
