0:55
SPEAKER_01: Too turdy.
0:56
SPEAKER_01: Um.
0:58
SPEAKER_01: What a Super Bowl.
1:00
SPEAKER_01: It was weird, man.
1:01
SPEAKER_01: It was weird.
1:02
SPEAKER_01: And it was like, you know, probably like maybe a quarter into it, I was like, you know, people always talk about it being rigged.
1:14
SPEAKER_01: And I I honestly don't think it is rigged.
1:18
SPEAKER_09: But Well, here's my look, uh it it it looked, it was it was going one of two ways.
1:25
SPEAKER_09: It was either overcorrection.
1:27
SPEAKER_09: Which it it seemed like it seemed like really big overcorrection.
1:31
SPEAKER_09: Right.
1:31
SPEAKER_09: But what I think it really was is that the Eagles proved that the Emperor wasn't wearing no clothes.
1:38
SPEAKER_01: Right.
1:39
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
1:40
SPEAKER_09: Because they hadn't played the Eagles this season.
1:42
SPEAKER_09: They haven't played the Eagles since 2023.
1:44
SPEAKER_09: Right.
1:45
SPEAKER_09: So we hadn't seen, you know, they they had we had they had nothing to go on.
1:50
SPEAKER_01: Right.
1:50
SPEAKER_09: And they just freaking wrecked them.
1:53
SPEAKER_09: Annihilated them for sure.
1:54
SPEAKER_09: Wrecked.
1:55
SPEAKER_09: I mean, Mahomes looked like a rookie quarterback out there.
1:57
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
1:58
SPEAKER_09: I mean, they were all over him.
1:59
SPEAKER_09: They were like on him like underwear.
2:01
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
2:02
SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
2:02
SPEAKER_01: I gotta wonder, you know, because there's there's bets placed on this, and and and Kansas City was far the favored uh you know.
2:13
SPEAKER_01: Um so I I don't want to say it's rigged, um, because I'm glad Philadelphia won, to be honest with you.
2:22
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, but based on that play, I mean, did they have a really bad night?
2:28
SPEAKER_09: Was Philly just on their game, or should they have not been there?
2:31
SPEAKER_09: Have they been carried the whole season?
2:33
SPEAKER_01: Right.
2:34
SPEAKER_09: Because they did not play well at all.
2:38
SPEAKER_01: I mean, zero.
2:39
SPEAKER_01: Kelsey got like what, four receivers?
2:42
SPEAKER_09: He had 39 yards.
2:43
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
2:44
SPEAKER_09: 39 yards.
2:45
SPEAKER_09: Yep.
2:45
SPEAKER_09: The whole game.
2:46
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
2:47
SPEAKER_01: And it was, you know, no question the Eagles were on fire.
2:52
SPEAKER_01: Jalen Hurts deserved the MVP.
2:54
SPEAKER_01: MVP, man.
2:55
SPEAKER_01: Man, that was that was he played so well.
2:57
SPEAKER_09: Between him and uh Barkley, man.
2:59
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
2:59
SPEAKER_01: I mean, they were putting up another five.
3:01
SPEAKER_01: Even Barkley didn't get a lot as much as he got during the regular season.
3:04
SPEAKER_09: Well, no, but I mean, still.
3:06
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
3:07
SPEAKER_09: He got more than Kansas or uh the uh Kansas City.
3:11
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
3:11
SPEAKER_09: You know what I mean?
3:12
SPEAKER_09: It was just crazy.

21:13

21:27
SPEAKER_09: It's sometimes it's just a black, like blacker than black outline of a man.
21:33

SPEAKER_01: It's like twelve and I'm gonna ask you, what's the shortest song on the album?
21:46

21:59
SPEAKER_09: Wow.
21:59
SPEAKER_09: So yeah.
22:00
SPEAKER_09: I think the last song, the Shadow Man incident, is probably the longest one.
22:03
SPEAKER_09: I think it's like clocks in like 17, 18, 19 minutes.
22:07
SPEAKER_09: That's crazy.
22:07
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
22:08

22:17
SPEAKER_01: Probably can't probably think of the titles at the time.
22:19
SPEAKER_09: Well, like Midnight Messiah is great.
22:21
SPEAKER_09: Um is there one that we can listen to that if we can Well, I mean, it's a dream theater song, so it would be half the podcast.
22:28
SPEAKER_01: Well, no, we don't won't play the whole thing.
22:30
SPEAKER_09: No, but I mean uh Midnight Messiah is great.
22:34

SPEAKER_01: If that wasn't the cover, what was it?
22:53
SPEAKER_09: Well, I don't I don't see it.
22:54
SPEAKER_09: Because it's got a that's it's it the cover, the cover is uh like a woman in a night dress, and it's she's like in a big room and there's a bed.
23:01

SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
23:06
SPEAKER_01: That is kind of creepy.
23:13

23:20
SPEAKER_01: That's why I want a trapped.
23:25
SPEAKER_09: Oh I wanna I wanna Yeah, you don't wanna you don't wanna skip too much because it really when it kicks in, it kicks in.

SPEAKER_09: I don't know.
24:04
SPEAKER_09: I don't know if he does a Neil Pure thing or not.
24:07
SPEAKER_01: Because well, at least on this it says uh drums and lyricists.
24:10
SPEAKER_01: Mike Portnoy.
26:13
SPEAKER_09: Well, like I said, the whole album is creepy because it it it is it's it's it's basically a concept album of like like the beginning of The Arms of Or Morpheus.
26:23
SPEAKER_09: It's it's it it comes in like a guy is like coming home from work.
26:27
SPEAKER_09: Right.
26:27
SPEAKER_09: Because it's got like a city soundscape going on behind him.
26:30
SPEAKER_09: He comes in, you can hear him like getting ready for bed and gets into bed, and also the music starts, and then it starts getting that and then it that kind of there's like times where he like wakes up you know in the in the album and you know you could like hear the bed creaking and stuff like that.
26:45
SPEAKER_01: That's kind of neat though.
26:46
SPEAKER_09: I mean it is it's a neat album.
26:47
SPEAKER_09: The whole album is neat, but it it all deals with like different, you know, it's all has to do with like nightmares and you know because parasomnia is has to deal with the abnormal sleep behaviors.
26:59
SPEAKER_09: Right.
26:59
SPEAKER_09: So it just makes sense.
27:01
SPEAKER_01: Uh so I don't know much about dream theater.
27:03
SPEAKER_01: I just know John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess Rudess.
27:07
SPEAKER_01: Um and of course Mike Portnoy.
27:09
SPEAKER_01: I mean I know them as musicians.
27:10

27:10
SPEAKER_01: You know, I follow Jordan Rudess and uh I follow all of them on Instagram.
27:14
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
27:15
SPEAKER_01: Um but I don't know much about Dream Theater.
27:17

27:23
SPEAKER_01: You had to we already talked about that.
27:24
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
27:25
SPEAKER_01: But James LeBrie was not always their vocalist.
27:28
SPEAKER_09: No, they've they've had a couple over the years.
27:30
SPEAKER_01: Do you know any of the other ones?
27:31
SPEAKER_01: I don't I don't know.
27:32
SPEAKER_09: I don't really I just like I just like Dream Theater and and Mike Portnoy.
27:36
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
27:36
SPEAKER_09: And then when Mark Mangini was the uh drummer, yeah.
27:40
SPEAKER_09: I like those guys.
27:40
SPEAKER_09: Yeah because they're they're fantastic drummers.
27:43
SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
27:43
SPEAKER_09: But uh that's the only reason I really started listening to Dream Theatre is because of those guys.
27:47
SPEAKER_09: Because I love the drumming.
27:49
SPEAKER_09: Because it's it it's like it's like rush on crack.
27:51
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
27:51
SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
27:52
SPEAKER_01: Well I'm listening to James LeBrie's vocals, and if I remember, I I remember hearing a dream theater album from the past, I don't know how long ago.
28:00
SPEAKER_01: Uh and not the whole album, just a couple songs.
28:03
SPEAKER_01: But the vocalist was more oper almost like a Jeff Tate.
28:08
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, yeah.
28:09
SPEAKER_01: I don't know who that would be who that would be, but it was more operetic sort of or like uh Bruce Dickinson or something like that.
28:17
SPEAKER_01: This guy's vocals are kind of creepy.
28:20
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, and I th but I think that goes along with the whole uh concept of the album.
28:24
SPEAKER_09: Not that I not that it doesn't work, I just you know just kind of But I think this guy is the original uh Dream Theater Vocalist?
28:31
SPEAKER_09: Really?

28:37
SPEAKER_09: Uh but yeah, it's the whole album is just great.
28:39
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
28:39
SPEAKER_09: I mean, I li uh the minute I downloaded it, I started listening, I listened to it like three times right straight through.

1:00:32
SPEAKER_01: Well, we're gonna find out how I go.
1:00:35
SPEAKER_01: Uh this album rock.
1:00:39
SPEAKER_01: Um.
1:00:41
SPEAKER_01: I'll just play a couple tracks from it.
1:00:44
SPEAKER_01: Uh one one thing I like about Kenny Wayne Shepherd, I like a lot about Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and yes, he is married to Mel Gibson's daughter.
1:00:50
SPEAKER_09: Well, I didn't know that.
1:00:51
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
1:00:52
SPEAKER_01: Um, is he's been doing a lot because when he f when he first came out in his teenage years in the 90s, he didn't sing.
1:01:02
SPEAKER_01: He had another guy singing, and he played guitar.
1:01:05
SPEAKER_09: Oh, that's right, I forgot about that.
1:01:07
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
1:01:08
SPEAKER_01: And then he put out kind of a alternative album, uh, n not as bluesy, and he sang on it and people didn't like it.
1:01:17
SPEAKER_01: So he got gun shy about singing.
1:01:20
SPEAKER_01: So he hired Noah Hunt uh uh again, um, and Noah Hunt became the lead singer of the band.
1:01:27
SPEAKER_01: But in in probably the last 15 years, 20 years, all the stuff that he's put out, he's had at least half the album uh has been him singing.
1:01:39
SPEAKER_01: And it's pretty pretty darn good.
1:01:42
SPEAKER_01: Um this one, uh, however, is This is only the second time we've done Kenny Wayne Shepard.
