- 0:26this thing off and get into it, boys.
- 0:35Welcome. It's so good to have us all back
- 0:37in our studios with our good mics.
- 0:40And my face isn't just right up in front of you tonight.
- 0:44And and look, as the name of this show states, let's just go
- 0:49ahead and address the elephant in the room and shout out to
- 0:52Blasi, the one man posse for that little nugget this
- 0:57afternoon as we were talking before the before the show.
- 1:00But Jr., congratulations my brother to your Tide for beating
- 1:05my Tigers in another classic LSU Bama match up this past weekend.
- 1:10So to the victor goes the spoils and a tip of the cap.
- 1:16You know, another good. Yeah, it's good.
- 1:18I was telling, I was telling more.
- 1:19We were on the road during the game and that of course it was a
- 1:22late game and you know we I was kind of working during the game,
- 1:25but I had ATV on in the background, was watching it and
- 1:28I told him afterwards. I said it's a good thing we won
- 1:30because at this point in my life with my wife being from
- 1:33Louisiana and doing the podcast with you from Baton Rouge and.
- 1:37All the other friends I've got from Louisiana, I think I know
- 1:39more. I have more LSU friends than I
- 1:41have Auburn friends anyway, which I never really wanted.
- 1:43Too many Auburn friends. Just a couple was enough to keep
- 1:46around. But I got a ton of LSU friends
- 1:49and family now, Family even. You know so.
- 1:52That that it helps because I knew I'd never hear the end of
- 1:55it if you guys got us again and it would have been a that's that
- 1:58been a long stretch two years back-to-back would have been
- 2:01tough on you you know. But yeah.
- 2:03Hey we we we we we did it. We we we we pushed it to the
- 2:08limit. You know we.
- 2:09I wish that I'm not getting into the game.
- 2:11I'm past it. But I wish that Daniels wouldn't
- 2:14have got hurt. Just as I I want to see what I
- 2:16want to see how that game would have finished.
- 2:18It definitely made a made a difference in it because I I
- 2:22think it would have ended up like 56 to 48.
- 2:25Well, I said. I said the first first, first
- 2:27team to 50 is what I thought going into Yeah, it was
- 2:30definitely on pace to that. One thing we can't agree, agree
- 2:34with neither team has a very good defense.
- 2:36So you know, but both teams have really good offenses and
- 2:41Alabama's peaking at the right time too.
- 2:44I I think that they can. I think they can give Georgia
- 2:47all they want. Georgia looks beatable.
- 2:49Oh yeah. Well, The thing is everybody's
- 2:51got just stellar athletes now and you know, the the the game
- 2:55is catered towards wanting them to score more.
- 2:57And you know, with the with the touching of the players and the
- 3:00pass interference and the and the way the speed of the game.
- 3:05But I think, you know, like you said about Daniel's getting
- 3:08hurt, you know, both teams had people hurt going into the game.
- 3:11It's just that time of the year, even though after a bye week
- 3:14it's like. It's hard to get everybody's
- 3:17full team by this point in the year.
- 3:18You're just hoping you can get everybody well enough piece back
- 3:21together for for the conference championships or or bowl games
- 3:25if if if you're lucky enough to make one.
- 3:26But it's hard. You know, and I heard somebody
- 3:28saying the day the SC, CS having a down year, I'm like not
- 3:31really. It's insane.
- 3:32I mean, nobody else wants none. It's just a tough year.
- 3:35It's just a tough year. I mean, it's just, you know, I
- 3:37mean everybody's. There's a lot of teams that can
- 3:40that can whip your butt, man. You know, look at Missouri this
- 3:43year, you know what I mean? Like, I mean you got teams that
- 3:45normally are kind of just living at like that that mediocre land
- 3:49and suddenly you got. Teams that can at any given
- 3:52time, whip your butt, you know, like you said so, dude, there's
- 3:55a lot. You know what?
- 3:56That's just in college football right now.
- 3:58There's so many athletes and so, so much talent across the board.
- 4:01You better watch out, you know? I mean, like there's a lot of
- 4:04teams out there that you bet. You better watch out for you
- 4:07know so. Yeah, that whole, you know all
- 4:09sports have kind of gotten that way and you know it's it's even
- 4:12more so in other countries than here.
- 4:14You know when I was listening to someone talk about it with
- 4:16women, Yana and Luca Doncic and some of those guys you know in
- 4:19most countries when you're. 910 years old.
- 4:21They think you're going, you come from good stock, you think
- 4:24you're going to be a ball player.
- 4:25You don't go to school no more. You go practice to be a ball
- 4:27player. It's like Olympic stuff here.
- 4:29We do that for, you know, if you're going to be a skater or
- 4:31or you know, a gymnast or something, you you basically got
- 4:34to commit to that early on and that's all you do.
- 4:36And you know, with the advent of AAU ball and just how much
- 4:42exposures college sports and and pro, pro pro sports too, you
- 4:47know, the big three especially. You're going to get more
- 4:52athletes because people are going to specialize in it
- 4:54earlier. There's people you know same
- 4:55with basketball and you know football definitely too.
- 4:59You know these kids are young. They're training flag football
- 5:01with ex coaches with with with ex players as coaches and
- 5:05personal coaches and team. You know, I mean their travel
- 5:08ball when they're seven to flag football.
- 5:10I mean it's right, you know and then the then the diet and
- 5:14exercise and then the whole program starting younger and.
- 5:18Stuff like that. So, but yeah, you're right
- 5:19Blasey, it's just all it's all of college football, everywhere
- 5:22you you see these teams play and it's like, good Lord, they all
- 5:25just look like monsters and they're £300 can run a 4142.
- 5:32I mean, there's there's not many defensives left in college
- 5:36football that can only allow three touchdowns and five
- 5:38football games. Like the Troy Trojans.
- 5:40You know, other than Troy, there's not many there.
- 5:43I was working. I knew it was going to work its
- 5:45way in somehow. Sunbelt down, baby.
- 5:48You gotta say it though, man. Hey, it was it was Battle for
- 5:51the Belt this past week. South Alabama.
- 5:53We beat them five years in a row.
- 5:55Now make that six years in a row.
- 5:57That belt stays where it belongs and where Pike County owner is.
- 6:01That's it baby. Right in Pike County in Troy,
- 6:03AL, great game. I got to go to that game.
- 6:05It was so fun. Kimani Vidal was able to become
- 6:09the all time leading rusher for Troy that night.
- 6:12He's only a junior too, man, That's so cool.
- 6:14And so yeah, he broke that. He's second in the country right
- 6:16now in total rushing yards. Got 1000 like over 1100 yards of
- 6:20rushing. So yeah, it was fun.
- 6:23Glad to beat South Alabama. Any big game on TV, too?
- 6:26Man, I got to watch that one from, UH while I ate chicken
- 6:29wings at a bar in Lafayette, LA. So that's awesome.
- 6:34Yeah, man, Yeah. It's like any of these games.
- 6:37You want a good game, you want a good game for everybody to
- 6:39watch. You don't want anybody get hurt
- 6:40long term. And then you want your team to
- 6:43win. If it's a rival game like that
- 6:44and I, so unfortunately me and Blasi won, I won.
- 6:49I won twice. So hey, I won.
- 6:51I got back on the I got back in the winner's circle yesterday
- 6:54with The Who Dat Nation baby. There you go.
- 6:56Hey, yes, I won three times. Hey, and Arkansas won, so
- 7:00Moore's in a good mood. He got a win.
- 7:01So that's like, I almost got a fourth or fifth win out of that.
- 7:05Truth be known, everybody. Blasi was like, you sure that
- 7:10you y'all want to do a show on on a record, a show on a Monday
- 7:15after the LSU, Alabama game? Like, look, man, I ain't playing
- 7:18in the game. Oh yeah.
- 7:19I mean, well, I. Told somebody gonna go one way
- 7:22or the other, you know? Somebody was asking me about
- 7:24going to an Alabama game. You know something?
- 7:26I got this and I got that. I said, man, I'd love to.
- 7:28I said it, but if I get a chance to go to a game at any point
- 7:31this year, which I doubt I do, I'm going to a Troy game, I said
- 7:33I've been wanting to want to go one of those more anything the
- 7:36last few years. So, you know, people ask me
- 7:40that. You go into games, you go to
- 7:41this. I've only been to a handful of
- 7:43my whole life. You know, we lived a few hours
- 7:45away. We didn't have a bunch of money.
- 7:46We weren't go. We, you know, we weren't
- 7:48boosters or nothing. So you're right.
- 7:50We, you know, we were the redneck fans on the lake.

- 7:55Y'all, come on, I got tickets. Yeah, I know.
- 7:57And see that's the I want to go to Troy.

- 11:39weekend. We get out on the road and she
- 11:41brought a writer out with her and I.
- 11:44I guess it was just from us talking on the podcast.
- 11:47He was like, tell him to come over the bus afterwards, just
- 11:49write a song. So Priscilla and her songwriter
- 11:53buddy, he came over and they worked on a song that night and
- 11:56jammed for a couple hours working on a new song, which
- 11:59they don't, doesn't do much, you know, usually busy moving one
- 12:02place or another. But that night we happened to
- 12:03have a few hours afterwards and they sat around and.
- 12:05Worked on a song so saw the whole process.
- 12:08Dude, that would. Be cool.
- 12:09Unbelievable to see and actually like.
- 12:11Yeah, the whole process. What?
- 12:13Nothing. I wonder what will ever become
- 12:14of it? Who knows?
- 12:15Yeah, who knows? I mean, I could be a hit.
- 12:17It could, nothing could come from it.
- 12:19But. But I bet it sounded good.
- 12:21Tell him I need AI need a fifth on it or something.
- 12:24I'm. Sure, you got it one idea,
- 12:27didn't you? Yeah, no doubt.
- 12:28But but yeah, it was great catching up with her on the
- 12:31podcast and we're going to do more episodes before the year's
- 12:35out. It's just.
- 12:35His schedule's as crazy as ours. He had.
- 12:38He was doing a content day-to-day with Cody for got a
- 12:40new a new song coming out November 16th.
- 12:43I don't know what I I don't know if I can tell.
- 12:45I don't know if they know the name if I can tell the name or
- 12:48not. But I I've only heard it once.

- 12:54But. New new song, new single coming
- 12:58out November 16th. New album, probably come out

- 13:01it done. I've heard some of it.
- 13:03Justin's band played on the new record for the first time.
- 13:06So they're all really excited about new music.
- 13:09And you know, they usually always say this, but I believe
- 13:11him this time more than normal. He said he thinks it's some of
- 13:14the best music he's ever put out.
- 13:16And from what I heard, yeah, it's it's Justin Moore.
- 13:19Same, same, you know, sound ish, But definitely cool.

- 13:55it's, I mean, Thanksgiving's right around the corner and here
- 13:57comes Christmas and it's crazy. I.
- 13:59Can't believe it's all right here.
- 14:00It's like Oh my God, here it comes, here it comes.
- 14:03Well we we recorded a lot of shows in the month of August
- 14:06like a whole lot and and trying to trying to stay ahead of the
- 14:10game knowing we were getting into the busy season and then it
- 14:13it was over two months ago. Here we are.
- 14:17You know, it feels it's it's just like you blinked an eye.
- 14:19But it just means that we already have more episodes
- 14:23coming out after this one. More things to talk about.
- 14:27We're going to have a Thanksgiving episode.

- 14:35Thanksgiving puts me in a good mood.
- 14:37It's like, it's that settling moment of time.
- 14:41Halloween's great, all right? And then Thanksgiving.
- 14:43To me, it's just perfect. Now Christmas gets just so.
- 14:46It's crazy, you know? I mean, I I love it and the true
- 14:48meaning of Christmas and everything behind it, but it's
- 14:50just so stressful where Thanksgiving to me is just such
- 14:54a great, that's a great three or four or five days, man, you
- 14:57know, that whole little period in there.
- 14:58So yeah, man, I'm. I'm definitely looking forward
- 15:01to it. I'm not much on Halloween.
- 15:04I'm like. Where I grew up, we just didn't
- 15:08do it anything for Halloween. We got on the sticks.
- 15:10You have to walk 50 miles to go to five houses.
- 15:12If you did where I live, you know.
- 15:14We had the harvest festival. You go into to the school.
- 15:16The elementary school have the harvest festival which was cool.
- 15:19I like this time of the year. This is my favorite time of the
- 15:21year. By period, Yeah.

- 15:33And some potato salad all. I love the.
- 15:36Fall. And I saw they had a Halloween
- 15:39type king cake at Rouses, but Cherise wouldn't let me get it
- 15:42because I was like, is king cake season if they're selling it,
- 15:44she's like it's. Not but Rouses just selling it.
- 15:48It's got to be she. That's what I said.
- 15:51I'm like, they don't sell it. If it ain't, she's like.
- 15:53That's some gimmick Halloween deal.
- 15:55That's not the rich. She looked at it, though we both
- 15:57stared it up. Down thought.
- 15:59Yeah, he's all about it. Call it a king cake, you know?
- 16:01I know, right? And it was in a different box.
- 16:03All they did was put in some kind of different plastic box
- 16:06instead of the paper box. I'm like, yeah.
- 16:09But so we didn't. But I they, they had a Bavarian
- 16:13and a regular. And I'm like, oh, we could
- 16:15totally get that Bavarian right? But sure, you can't call it a

- 17:56They skip over Thanksgiving completely now.
- 17:59Like, even my neighborhood, like, you know, we got a
- 18:01neighborhood, we've got the, you know, some of the common areas
- 18:04up there, literally N1. They had the whole clubhouse was
- 18:08lit up. They had all the like Garland
- 18:11and stuff on the stage. They've already got the tree
- 18:14almost halfway built off to the side, getting ready to.
- 18:18Bring it in and crane it in in the middle.
- 18:19It's like, guys, do we not do a harvest thing?
- 18:22Do we not do some Thanksgiving? Some take the pumpkins from
- 18:25Halloween and set them out with some pine straw.
- 18:28You know, some some hay there and do a little, you know,
- 18:31Thanksgiving. No, they just skip right through
- 18:33Thanksgiving, dude, because you know why?
- 18:35They can't make money on it. In the stores so they have to
- 18:38skip by and get right back to the money.
- 18:40Making stuff. Halloween money making candy
- 18:43all. Yeah.
- 18:43You buy your fall decorations at the same time that you're
- 18:46getting, I guess, Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving and Halloween.
- 18:50They've tried to merge those two and then bam, right in your
- 18:54face. November 1st.
- 18:55Here it is. Well, there's no giant
- 18:57inflatable pilgrims that you can put in your yard or anything.
- 18:59Yeah, like that. You celebrated that hard.
- 19:02I guess that's maybe we should go that hard with Thanksgiving
- 19:06just coming, coming. It's the gap.
- 19:09It's the gap now that has to be filled.
- 19:11The only thing left that these people are going to be able to
- 19:14sell is to fill that gap with inflatable turkeys, inflatable
- 19:19pilgrims, and that's it. I mean, they have to already
- 19:23exist. They have to.
- 19:25We're going to lift this up. Yeah.
- 19:27But then you just, what do you do?
- 19:30You know, you've already got the lights that you put on outside.
- 19:33Do you kind of find a way to merge bright, twinkly lights
- 19:37with a brown Thanksgiving? I always just think of
- 19:40Thanksgiving as like brown and orange, those colors.
- 19:43You know what it is. You don't get green and red.
- 19:46It's kind of like the Cleveland Browns.
- 19:47It's like just. Cleveland Browns fans ought to
- 19:49be happy. You know, they're going to have
- 19:51to change. I think they're just going to
- 19:52have to change the colors of Thanksgiving.
- 19:56That's where the push needs to come.
- 19:58We. Got to add some more color to
- 20:00this thing. Yeah, it's just, it's too like,
- 20:03blah, we got to, we got to do something.
- 20:06It's already the same colors basically as as Halloween.
- 20:10Like let's get it. Let's let's pump up
- 20:12Thanksgiving, man. I mean, I.
- 20:14Think Halloween's Got the purple?
- 20:16Thanksgiving is just several different shades of brown,
- 20:19basically. It really is disgusting.
- 20:22Variations of Brown, Brownie, orangey.
- 20:26It just doesn't make you get really happy.
- 20:28We got to have something else. See, we do Halloween, Halloween
- 20:31here. So Halloween and Hammock Bay is
- 20:33off the charts. It's crazy.
- 20:35And specifically my neighborhood because there's multiple
- 20:38neighborhoods in this. Subdivision I should say in this
- 20:41neighborhood there's multiple subdivisions.
- 20:42I think that's right. I feel like it's.
- 20:44Yeah, that is all there are all these sub layers so but yes so
- 20:48Symphony is the one. I mean like the other ones get
- 20:51busy too, but they literally people come into Hammock Bay and
- 20:55the police are there stopping them at like 3:00.
- 20:58They cannot enter into Symphony. It's like opening a gate like
- 21:02this guy down the road. He's in the military or
- 21:04whatever. He sits there and clicks all the
- 21:06trick or treaters. And this year he counted. 1112
- 21:10kids holy. Front door, yeah.
- 21:12And that's. And we now we set up a full I
- 21:15set up a kill room in my garage like I had.
- 21:18You know, Freddie on the table doing surgery on him.
- 21:20We had him over there like, you know, his heart monitor going
- 21:23there, like, you know, he would crash every once in a while try
- 21:26to revive him. You know, we had Amanda was
- 21:28sitting there with a nurse with the cutthroat.
- 21:30We get kind of into it. Dude.
- 21:31We gave away probably 2500 pieces of candy.
- 21:34I mean, you you about go broke. It's either what you do with Jr.
- 21:37You don't do anything and you shut the lights off and you
- 21:39leave. You better get ready to do
- 21:41something. And so I just jump off in it,
- 21:43you know? Yeah, Jr. said.
- 21:45It was on this mower. Is that to deter people from
- 21:48coming? Like, look at this asshole.
- 21:51He's up there mowing his yard. He ain't gonna get there, candy.
- 21:54We don't really have any. We just don't have it in our
- 21:56neighborhood. It's all older people here.
- 21:58It's not a lot of kids in my neighborhood that's that's good.
- 22:01That's good. Good for you.
- 22:03Yeah, you know, it's fine. Fine for us, our old house some
- 22:07and home of some. But even then we would just turn
- 22:09all the lights high in our bedroom.
- 22:13Yeah, I remember in the early days of Hammock Bay living there
- 22:16and in Symphony. I remember somebody had a
- 22:19haunted house. Hell, it might have been you.
- 22:21You might have set one up. That was 1015 years I.
- 22:25Remember, a neighbor, probably six or seven houses down for me
- 22:29up the street did, Yes. And that's what actually gave me
- 22:32the idea. So I started jumping in, They
- 22:34moved, and I've kind of taken over.
- 22:36I've become like the haunted garage guy, you know?
- 22:39Like, yeah, it was good. It was good.
- 22:41Then anyway, it's my body's hanging like body count.
- 22:47In the house body count. Good Lord, It's kind of yeah, it
- 22:51gets pretty good. You can't hardly see this lady
- 22:52was actually recording me. Like while I was recording and
- 22:56it was like, hey, let me record my garage here.
- 23:00But anyway, so they do all of that.
- 23:01They're. Ready on the table.
- 23:02I don't know if you can see him or not, but you know, pretty
- 23:05laid out doing a little surgery on him.
- 23:07But it's fine. That's awesome.
- 23:11So y'all, it's just that everybody goes all in for
- 23:14Christmas too, just all the lights and.
- 23:17Yeah, it's pretty. It's pretty good.
- 23:19Yeah, we do. Yeah.
- 23:20I've. I've been still need to do a
- 23:21You'll need to do a little drive through once the lights are once
- 23:25everybody's fully up after Thanksgiving when you put up
- 23:29Christmas, then, then. We enjoy giving thanks Jr., Do
- 23:35you go big with your Christmas decorations?
- 23:37Not necessarily. We do some, but nothing crazy,
- 23:41yeah. Charisse does seasonal type
- 23:44stuff but nothing too, nothing too crazy.
- 23:45It depends on where we're going to be.
- 23:46If we're going to be home, home we'll do more.
- 23:48If we're going to be traveling and visit.
- 23:50If we're going to be at Houma or you know my brothers or
- 23:53Mississippi or something. No need.
- 23:54If we're not going to be here, kind of deal.
- 23:56Yeah. But we we, we, we have, you know
- 24:00we'll put the tree up we'll do some stuff We we like to get
- 24:02festive on the Christmas. Like I say I love Christmas and
- 24:04I love the smells. I love drinking eggnog.
- 24:07I love like the IT goes with this month, all that.
- 24:11And, you know, thinking about that, I'm wondering if they
- 24:13designed it this way with holidays, you know, you talk
- 24:15about the colors and it being kind of blah.
- 24:17What if it's kind of like a jam, a jam band show?
- 24:19We're like, they're trying to set you up for the wave, you
- 24:22know, like, like, well, it's crazy party.
- 24:25OK, let's calm down for Thanksgiving.
- 24:27Then it's like, boom, Christmas blow up and then New Year's just
- 24:31blows it out. No, it's just like.
- 24:34Yeah, you get up. You get up to thanks.
- 24:35You get up to Christmas. You think Can't go anymore.
- 24:37Can't go anymore. Oh yeah.
- 24:39New Year's. Boots and pants and boots and
- 24:43pants and boots and pants. Somebody blows some VIX inhalers
- 24:47in my eyeballs. Oh, my Lord, yeah.
- 24:53But I think the. I mean, I think you make a very
- 24:55good point. That's exactly what it is.
- 24:57Speaking of panic, Speaking of jam bands, did you see the set
- 25:01list that widespread Bannick did on Halloween?
- 25:05It's it's nuts. They called it.
- 25:07It was the Wizard of Ozzy and they played their songs and then
- 25:12a bunch of Sabbath and Ozzy songs the whole night.
- 25:15Did they really? Yeah.
- 25:16See that? Oh, it's something else.
- 25:18Check it out on nugsthatsnugs.com for Panics
- 25:22latest show. That sounds awesome.
- 25:24Oh, it is. It's good.
- 25:26I wonder if you look through all of the holidays throughout the
- 25:28year, if there's a theme there, If they do them, if they if they
- 25:31kind of, I think we're maybe exposing something here tonight.
- 25:36We're just kind of so you're. Thinking DJ from like hundreds
- 25:38of years ago, set these holidays up.
- 25:40I'm sure. I'm sure.
- 25:41No. If you want to get down to what,
- 25:43who? Who orchestrated it was, the
- 25:44people. It was the Morgans and the
- 25:47Carnegies and the Rockefeller Whoever was figuring out how
- 25:49they're going to make all the money.
- 25:51That's how do we design this. The colors, so they don't
- 25:53overgo, so we can sell different color we have to sell.
- 25:57That's exactly right. Think about it, because it's the
- 25:59amount. Of Mardi Gras, the pastels into
- 26:01Easter. Yeah, that's right.
- 26:02Yeah, like. Can't use multi use, You got to
- 26:05buy a pack for each one. You've got the greens.
- 26:08They get their month in March, you know, then the 4th of July.
- 26:12Here comes your red, white and blue bitch.
- 26:14Somebody on the chain, not too hot, not as high up as he needed
- 26:17to been or she needed to be said, hey guys, what a good idea
- 26:20for all these holidays. Won't we just use like three
- 26:22colors? That way everybody could save
- 26:23on, you know, pencils and colors and break, you know, paint and
- 26:27and. And somebody that was in charge
- 26:30that owned the company, said Hell Doll.
- 26:35We made that. We made that mistake with
- 26:37Thanksgiving years ago. We'll never do that again, ever.
- 26:40See how it's done all these years?
- 26:43It just won't catch off. People just want to eat.
- 26:46I don't understand it, you know. You see?
- 26:49Yeah, because at first Christmas and Valentine's were the same.
- 26:52And they're like, screw this, we got to make Valentine's red
- 26:55deeper and we got to throw some green on Christmas.
- 26:57Call it a day, Jingle Bells. All the way to the house.
- 27:04I watched the documentary on the the Gilded Age yesterday APBS
- 27:08documentary on YouTube on the Gilded Age and made me think
- 27:11about a lot of things like that because that's really how that
- 27:14started. You know the where our country
- 27:15was. There was a time when you just
- 27:17you you did for yourself where you were and then now we're and
- 27:20then it's as industry started then you had to work somewhere
- 27:23and then you had to have things anyway it was just wild and some
- 27:27of the. Crazy.
- 27:28That wasn't that long ago. We're talking about 200 years
- 27:30ago, right? Yeah.
- 27:32You're right, it's really not one thing that I do want to talk
- 27:35about. I don't know if y'all have heard
- 27:36this, but it's just I never thought that I'd utter these
- 27:40words and that I could say this in 2023, but have y'all heard
- 27:45the new Beatles song? No, I have not.
- 27:48All right there. There is a new Beatles song
- 27:52called Now and Then and what happened, how they how it all
- 27:56came about is in in the mid 90s, I think 9495.
- 28:01They did that Beatles anthology and out of that George Harrison
- 28:07was still alive. Ringo and them, they all got
- 28:09together. They were able to pull a
- 28:11recording or two out of tapes from John Lennon and and make a
- 28:16couple of new songs during that anthology.
- 28:19And I remember and they were OK, you know they weren't just like
- 28:23rocking this new song is awesome and what the they they had
- 28:28started to work on it then and it's just a demo that Yoko gave
- 28:34to them to to let them mess with it and it's him playing the song
- 28:38and singing it at a piano. But up until now, and we love to
- 28:43talk about this stuff, they had to have artificial intelligence
- 28:47that could be able to help it, to separate the tracks of it.
- 28:52So they were able to isolate the vocals and isolate the piano
- 28:56separately. And they they could do that a
- 28:59little bit in 1995, but not enough to be able to, to, to
- 29:04make it to the way they wanted to do it.
- 29:06So then they were able to separate all of the tracks they
- 29:09had played. They tried to play on it and
- 29:12they had those recordings. They have George Harrison.
- 29:15His guitar is what's in there. Paul McCartney does a little
- 29:19guitar solo as an ode to him in the song.
- 29:24I mean, I know not everybody's big Beatle fans that are
- 29:27listening to this or anything, but if you've not ever seen that
- 29:31documentary, get back. That's on on Disney plus.
- 29:35I mean, do yourself a favor and watch that.
- 29:38Some of the most iconic songs in the history of the world, you
- 29:43can watch them actually do it. You could see the magic happen
- 29:48the way that you could. It's unbelievable that they had
- 29:52the foresight back then to record all of that stuff.
- 29:56And then it's taken the technology.
- 29:58And a lot of the technology that they used in that documentary is
- 30:02what led to them being able to finish this song.
- 30:07It's billed as the last Beatles song and it is the last Beatles
- 30:12song because, yeah, I can't wait to hear it.
- 30:13Now I've not heard off of it's Paul McCartney involved in this.
- 30:18Like, who's all involved in this project.
- 30:19OK, so he's all, all of them. You've got, you've got John
- 30:22Lennon's voice and with him from from that demo, Paul's playing
- 30:27bass and he plays that guitar solo.
- 30:29Ringo plays the drums and and George Harrison recorded his
- 30:35parts too in in the mid 90s because he died in like 2001.
- 30:39So it's all, it's truly a Beatles song, it's all four of
- 30:42them. They didn't use AI to like
- 30:45replicate John's voice or anything.
- 30:48They used AI to separate that piano from his voice so that
- 30:54they could separate it and make it into an individual track and
- 30:57then multi mix it. Who is the live now that's that
- 31:02had control final say so control Paul, Ringo.
- 31:05Paul and Ringo. Yeah, yeah.
- 31:07Gotcha. Yeah.
- 31:08So yeah, it's Beetle certified. Boom.
- 31:10Yeah, it's totally Beetle certified.
- 31:12There's a little, in fact, I'll put the link to it in the show
- 31:17notes. So if you're listening or
- 31:19watching wherever, just go to the notes, the description.
- 31:21I'll have the link in it, the link to the video.
- 31:24The video is wild. Like, just go watch it.
- 31:27But watch this. There they made a little 12
- 31:30minute short film of that process, of how that happened or
- 31:36that whole deal. And it's worth watching that
- 31:38little 12 minute deal and then watching the video to the song
- 31:42and you're like, wow, The Beatles still had 25 minutes of
- 31:46material left for us. Or what 20 minutes of material
- 31:49left for us. Brand new, fresh material.
- 31:53The best. Really the best for last.
- 31:55Like, it's a close. It's almost like the whole
- 31:58Beatles chapter is closed now. Like it finishes it.
- 32:02It's that good. It's that good?
- 32:04I'm that's the first thing I'm doing When we get done
- 32:07recording. This is listen, that song
- 32:08because I love The Beatles, man. I do too, man.
- 32:11So many good songs. I I Paul McCartney's at the
- 32:14list, to the top of my list of people that I have not seen,
- 32:18that I have to see. And I better get on that quick,
- 32:22you know, not that he's old, but he's getting older.
- 32:26I don't know how much longer he's going to want to then he is
- 32:29kind of getting old. I mean, it's the truth.
- 32:31He kind of is. He can feel it coming in the air
- 32:33tonight, you know, It's right around the corner, you know, So
- 32:36yeah. Really.
- 32:37Him? But is it really him that is?
- 32:40That is a debate. That is a debate.
- 32:42Not going down that round, No, not tonight.
- 32:44We don't have enough time for that, but.
- 32:46Didn't start out a huge Beatles fan growing up, but overtime
- 32:49they have grown on me kind of like Grateful Dead.
- 32:51Several other bands where I appreciate them immensely now
- 32:54and I like this stuff. I love a lot of their stuff that
- 32:58that's the thing too, cuz you don't have a big sample until
- 33:00you dive into something. Once you realize all the stuff
- 33:03not the same five or six, that they beat you over the head with
- 33:05you really right and. That was.
- 33:07They had some good stuff. It took me a little.
- 33:09Bit like almost like 3 different bands, you know what I mean?
- 33:12Like if you listen to one time period and then another, then
- 33:15another, it's like, is that the same band you know?
- 33:18And I love bands who multiple people in the band sing.
- 33:23Oh yeah, most of my. Favorite bands?
- 33:25Multiple people in the band sing.
- 33:26Yes. And you get a different, a whole
- 33:28different thing going on, man. It's like it's like listening to
- 33:31two or three bands sometimes, you know, and nobody can full.
- 33:35That's a full band. That's exactly what it is, yeah.
- 33:37The songwriting power of Lennon and McCartney.
- 33:40I mean, they're just at the everybody at the top of their
- 33:42list. But that's what was so fun about
- 33:45watching Get Back is them going back and forth with some of the
- 33:50most incredible famous lyrics of all time.
- 33:55You know, like just crazy. It's just it's fun to watch
- 33:58those guys work. It's fun to watch artists work.
- 34:01And we've talked about that in the episode last week with with
- 34:04Tim Michael Schmidt. Just it's just interesting to
- 34:09watch how that whole process works.
- 34:11Like Jr. alluded to, getting to watch watch them play with
- 34:15Priscilla and and Justin and just jamming out and doing all
- 34:19of that stuff. Like, you don't get to do that
- 34:21every day. You know, it's a it's an honor
- 34:23to get to to watch that unfold in front of you.
- 34:28And that's what that that kind of that Beatles stuff just takes
- 34:31you behind the scenes that you never thought you'd really get
- 34:34to see that, you know, especially from them this late
- 34:37in the game. But.
- 34:40The wherewithal to record it back then, whoever decided,
- 34:44let's make sure to get some of this footage because you had the
- 34:46technology, then finally to get it, You know, and.
- 34:50I mean, I'd say that all the time.
- 34:52You should just get it nowadays, especially since it's so yeah,
- 34:55you don't time if. You're an entertainer or perform
- 34:58or anything. You should have everything you
- 34:59do. Film.
- 35:00Every time. Every single time.
- 35:03Because you don't know what's going to happen.
- 35:05You know Blasi may come in upside down.
- 35:08You never did happen. Never Sideways you.
- 35:11Never. You think about even this
- 35:13podcast if if if some if somebody 200 years from now is
- 35:17wanting to talk about some topic that we talked about.
- 35:19It happens. This pops up and this is their
- 35:21excellent their how they like we look at stuff from YouTube.
- 35:25We get sourced. We're now we're now being a
- 35:27source I. Mean.
- 35:28Maybe not that far out, it'll be obsolete, but it's.
- 35:31There. It's there forever.
- 35:32I mean, it's, you know, there. Yeah.
- 35:34You're right. We go back and watch videos of
- 35:36of people interviewing people from when we were kids and we,
- 35:39you know, we still go back. That's the that's the reference
- 35:41point. That's what people were thinking
- 35:42about it that day. It is.
- 35:44It's historic what we do here. It's relevant and it will be 200
- 35:50years from now. It's what I I'm hoping.
- 35:53Might finally win our first award.
- 35:55We will, we will probably dead and gone.
- 35:57But we will definitely be like people will go back and get.
- 36:00This was amazing. I can't believe these three guys
- 36:02talked about. This cult classic will be a
- 36:05We're already going. We're a cult classic in the
- 36:07Bacon Boys, the absolute wisest souls.
- 36:11This is like the gassing industry I've seen in a long
- 36:13time. Yeah, this is like the public

- 38:10point, and I don't know if it's. And your sanity.
- 38:13Oh, no credibility. None of that was your industry.
- 38:16No, no, no, I don't believe it was.
- 38:18She flipped. Ambien.
- 38:19Ambien. That's what I think it was, I
- 38:21think. Exactly.
- 38:22She took Ambien to go to bed and then stayed.
- 38:24She thought, yeah. Then all of sudden she looked
- 38:26around and she was all lizardized.
- 38:27Yeah, I. Promise you that'll do it.
- 38:30I love the one with the girl that dressed up like her and you
- 38:33look over there and it's like this lizard guy and he just
- 38:36looks over at her social. Experiment.
- 38:40That doesn't need to happen. Take an Ambien and drink you
- 38:44about two glasses of wine and don't go to sleep and and lay
- 38:48around. Watch TV and and you'll think
- 38:51people aren't real. They put a video recorder out
- 38:54there and watch yourself the next day and you'll say ain't no
- 38:56way I did that. God damn I did that.
- 39:00Promise. You promise you.
- 39:02But I don't think it so. I don't think it was staged.
- 39:04But I, you know, that's how stuff is now.
- 39:07Viral moments. You get anything, it's big
- 39:08enough enough people talk about it.
- 39:09You go cash in or you could get or you could get.
- 39:15You know that they'll push you to push you to want to kill
- 39:17yourself because. At least you took a positive Rd.
- 39:20about it, like, you know, I mean, she's just having fun on
- 39:23it. It's like whatever.
- 39:24Goes negative. People can be so mean and harsh.
- 39:26I mean, it was just so bad how people do.
- 39:28People people are awful. She was that world.
- 39:31She was at the she was at the at one of the LSU games this year.

- 40:20should have a segment in the show where it's just a couple of
- 40:24you know topical things that we just call it, call it like call
